Hi Toby and other Seniors in the forum,
My family and I are planning to move in to Waterloo, Ontario in the summer. We did our first landing in the summer of 2009. We got our PR/SIN cards in 2009.
I am planning to send in our personal belongings by ship to Toronto. I checked with the cargo companies in my country to find out the cost involved. They have provided me with very vague and unreliable type of answers as to costs involved in the seaport of Toronto to clear the goods. I tried visiting Toronto Port Authority website to find this information, but, was unsuccessful.
Can you guys provide me a website who could get me exact information on the costs involved in Toronto Seaport while clearing personal belongings.
My cargo will be approx 12m3 (half container load).
What do they charge as:
a) Terminal receiving charges
b) Port Security charges
c) Handling fee
d) Dock loading fee
e) Any Tax for used personal belongings?
f) Any Tax for unused personal belongings?
g) Customs duty for used personal belongings?
h) Customs duty for unused personal belongings?
i) How long the cargo could be in Toronto port before levying demurrage charges? (Or within how many days the cargo should be cleared)
j) Any other cost involved in clearing from port
I am also interested in finding out approx transport charges from Toronto to Waterloo (with 12m3 cargo)
(Can you give me email or website address of transporters from Toronto Port)
Regards
