ShipSavvy vs Stallion Express
Stallion Express is a Canadian shipping platform for online sellers, with branches and partner drop-off points in several provinces. Here is an honest look at shipping to US customers, from their public pages and ours.
What Stallion Express does well
- A large seller base: "trusted by 40,000+ sellers", in their words (Stallion home page).
- Branches and partner Drop and Go points in Ontario, BC, Quebec and Alberta (Stallion locations).
- Warehousing as well as shipping: "We own over 250,000 sq ft of warehouse space in Ontario" (Stallion fulfillment).
- Pallets and freight, with "Less-than-truckload shipments for pallets and oversized freight" (Stallion help centre).
Where ShipSavvy differs
- Buying from US suppliers? Ship to your ShipSavvy address in New York. We bring it across the border for pickup or delivery. You need a Canadian importer number and a CARM account.
- FDA and partner-agency goods are supported, limitations apply. Stallion's own pages say different things about FDA goods (see the table), so ask them about your products too. Send us your product list and we confirm before you ship.
Side by side
| ShipSavvy | Stallion Express (from their public pages, checked 10 Nov 2026) | |
|---|---|---|
| How your US parcels cross | Consolidated at our Niagara Falls facility and handed to US carriers every business day. On SavvyBroker shipments, licensed customs brokers file your entries. | "Stallion consolidates parcels from many sellers" and hands them to US carriers: "We clear customs and hand off your shipment to a partner carrier, who delivers the last mile" (Stallion help centre, Stallion US shipping) |
| Duty on US shipments | DDP by default. Duty is calculated live and charged with the label, and recalculated if customs details change after you buy it. | "All US shipments through Stallion are shipped Delivered Duty Paid (DDP)", and duties, taxes and customs fees "are calculated and paid at the time of shipping" (Stallion US shipping guide) |
| FDA and partner-agency goods | Supported, limitations apply | Their pages differ. The prohibited items list includes "FDA-regulated items and any shipments requiring special clearance" (Stallion prohibited items), but their US shipping guide says "Make sure FDA program data is submitted for all regulated products before purchasing labels" (Stallion US shipping guide). Ask them. |
| A US address for supplier orders and returns | Niagara Falls, New York, with GTA pickup or delivery. You need a Canadian importer number and a CARM account. | A US address for returns: "Use it only for returns, not as a general-purpose public address" (Stallion return fees) |
| Pickup and drop-off | Free SavvyPickup in the GTA for eligible shipments, plus 3 processing centres and 6 drop-off points. | Pickups "can be scheduled from the app, with availability depending on your location and carrier" (Stallion FAQ), and "Free daily pickups for accounts shipping 1000+ parcels per month (location must be reasonable)" (Stallion help centre), plus branches and partner drop-off points (Stallion locations) |
| Pallets and LTL | Not our focus today | "Less-than-truckload shipments for pallets and oversized freight" (Stallion help centre) |
| Monthly fees | No contracts and no monthly fees | "no monthly fees" (Stallion pricing), and "There is no subscription fee to open an account" (Stallion FAQ) |

Questions
Can I use the ShipSavvy US address for orders from US suppliers?
Yes. Ship to your ShipSavvy address in Niagara Falls, New York, and we bring it across the border for pickup or delivery in the GTA. The same address takes your US customers' returns. You need a Canadian importer number and a CARM account. See imports into Canada.
Can I ship FDA-regulated goods to the US with ShipSavvy?
FDA and other partner-agency goods are supported, limitations apply. Add 1 business day for regulated goods. Send us your product list and we confirm before you ship. See shipping FDA-regulated goods.
Who files the US customs entry for my parcels with ShipSavvy?
On SavvyBroker shipments, which the portal picks by default for US addresses, licensed customs brokers file your entries on your behalf. On DDU shipments the carrier clears the parcel and your customer pays the duties on delivery. DDU is for parcels up to 2 kg on a ShipSavvy label.
