Sending a parcel to family or a business contact in Canada should not feel complicated. Air Cargo QLC collects from Islamabad and Rawalpindi and ships to cities like Toronto, Mississauga, Brampton, Calgary, Vancouver and Montreal. Our team has years of experience in international shipping and helps you with packing, paperwork and booking. This page explains our rates, size limits and the steps to ship, so you know what to expect before you call.
What Can You Send with Cargo Services from Pakistan to Canada?
Most people ship personal and small commercial items to Canada. Before you book, check what you plan to send, because Canadian customs and the carrier have rules on what can go in a parcel. Our team will tell you if an item needs extra checks or cannot be shipped.
Personal Parcels and Gifts
Clothes, shoes, bridal wear, shawls, home items and gifts are the most common parcels. Pack each box neatly and keep a clear list of what is inside. Customs may ask for it, and a simple list helps the parcel move faster. If you are sending a gift, write the real value on the paperwork. Wrong or missing values often cause delays at the border.
Documents, Samples and Business Shipments
Students, job seekers and small businesses also ship documents, product samples and light commercial goods. Original documents should be well protected and sent in clean, sealed packing. For business items, keep your invoice ready. If you are unsure what paperwork your goods need, call us before you pack. It is easier to fix a problem before the parcel leaves Pakistan.

What Can Change Your Final Charges?
The table is a starting point. Your final charge can change with the factors below.
- Volumetric weight, if your box is large but light
- Fuel surcharge and peak season charges
- Remote area delivery in Canada
- Extra handling for oversized or irregular packages
- Duties and taxes, depending on how you choose to ship
Share your parcel details and our team will give you a clear total before pickup.
How Volumetric Weight Is Calculated
Carriers charge for the larger of actual weight or volumetric weight. For this service, volumetric weight uses the 5000:1 rule. Multiply length, width and height in centimetres, then divide by 5000. A light but bulky box, such as one filled with pillows or soft clothing, may be charged on size rather than weight. Packing tightly and using the right box size can bring your cost down.
Size and Weight Limits for Canada Shipments
This route is built for parcels, not pallets. Each piece must stay within set limits, and larger loads need to be split into several boxes. Knowing the limits before you pack saves time and extra fees at pickup.
- Maximum weight: 24 kg per piece
- Longest side: up to 100 cm
- Second longest side: up to 76 cm
- Length plus girth: up to 300 cm
- Pallets are not accepted

Parcels entering Canada go through the Canada Border Services Agency. Duties and taxes may apply depending on the item and its value. Write accurate descriptions and values on your paperwork.
