I ordered a nature box and it says it is shipping via landmark from Cheektowaga, New York. It is right beside the border with Fort Erie. I may be wrong on this but i would guess they just grab a van drive accross the border and mail it from Canada along with the other items.
Amazon.com shipping to GTA via "Landmark Global"..who?

I actually work for landmark.... We are a freight forwarder. We do have our own trucks but we do not do final mile delivery (delivery to your door). We facilitate the customs clearance, and bring to one of our bonded warehouses in Canada and hand off to carrier for delivery to your door. Our shipping times are actually very competitive with other companies who do final mile delivery, and we don't hit you with big brokerage charges! Bonus right? Generally, if there is a delay with a package it's due to weather or just a tracking delay once we have passed your package to a final mile carrier.

Just got a package today shipped via Landmark and delivered by UPS. My order shipped Friday morning and was received today (Tuesday) in Brampton. It was expedited shipping as it was cheaper with the 4 items I ordered. Amazon.com tracking still says it is out for delivery. Apparently it went out for delivery at 12:19 am and arrived at 12:25 pm. My last order delivered by UPS also spent 12 hours on a truck but came at 6 pm. This order came from Columbus, OH to Burlington, ON to Concord, ON which would be UPS and then to Brampton.
What trucks go out for delivery at 12 am??

Unless things have changed, when it comes off the truck at the local delivery hub (where all the last mile delivery trucks are) it's scanned out for delivery at that point. So it just gets marked whenever it gets there.Cheap Cat wrote: ↑Just got a package today shipped via Landmark and delivered by UPS.

Here, the night crew usually scans a truck around 4 am or so. Think that's usually the earliest.

sharpy86, I have a shipment coming from AR, USA but the tracking has not been updated in over a week (shipping from Cheektowaga, New York as well). There is no contact info for any Landmark location, and the seller cannot confirm anything further either. How do I find out where my package is sitting?

I ordered items from amazon.com, the items were shipped separately, the first item arrived by Canada Post, and from Landmark tracking site http://landmarkglobal.com/en_CA/our-solutions/ the second item too is going by Canada Post.

Im expecting an order from aliexpress and it was shipped and arrived at landmark in burlington this week (this is the first time I have used this service so I was hoping someone could help me out). This morning it said my item was delivered in Toronto but I didn't get anything .. but at the same time why would there be a delivery on a sunday and that too so early in the morning? I have no idea which carrier landmark sent it with as the tracking numbers aren't working on any of the major carrier websites .. do i just assume that it was delivered and now lost or that it will hopefully come tomorrow afternoon?redgrandam wrote: ↑Unless things have changed, when it comes off the truck at the local delivery hub (where all the last mile delivery trucks are) it's scanned out for delivery at that point.

I'd guess it's an error, unless they actually normally do deliveries on saturdays. It probably went out for delivery on friday but they never got to it or something. I'd wait for monday and see if it shows up. Otherwise I'd be calling the company after monday.krejci87 wrote: ↑Im expecting an order from aliexpress and it was shipped and arrived at landmark in burlington this week (this is the first time I have used this service so I was hoping someone could help me out).

haha I know! I called AppleExpress turns out they aren't contracted to do deliveries in apartment buildings or something so the Driver marked it as delivered, but he will be sending it back to LandMark tomorrow, who will then send it this week with Canada Post. Amazing.redgrandam wrote: ↑How many levels of outsourcing can a company do? Lol. Wow.

Yes they seem to on all my orders. I have noticed though that the Landmark Global shipping is used more when you actually supplier your buying off of is from the ".com" one vs. the ".ca" one cause we are in Canada, when any supplier ships to Canada from the states UPS is one of the only north American courier company on both sides of the boarder. So they usually use them. And that is whom I see delivering my landmark packages.

Fedex does USA to Canada. With Rockauto ground to canada is fedex all the way and their quoted shipping includes duties and brokerage and RA also collects HST on the original payment. Interesting is that HST is on item and any duty but not the rest of the shipping quote. Ground(consolidated) from RA uses Landmark Global and again amount paid to RA is all inclusive. And it is cheaper than the fedex ground. Landmark usually passes it off to Canada post. An item from Washington state came via Richmond BC postal (they sat on it for 30 hours). East coast came via Burlington,On. (cleared customs there) then to canada post. I get a Landmark tracking number from RA and when I click it Landmark shows tracking plus a Canada post tracking number. Canada post tracking shows nothing until it has arrived in Canada and cleared customs and gets handed over to them.MikeM753 wrote: ↑Yes they seem to on all my orders.

Landmark is just a way to bulk ship "slower" Amazon.com parcels from the US to Canada, and then have them remailed inside Canada via various courier companies. It's probably one reason why shipping charges direct from Amazon.com are usually quite reasonable.

My current order from rockauto coming by landmark seems screwy. Tracking as of friday night showed it picked up jun3 in bedford pk il , then chicago, fremont IND, and then columbus ohio. Then yesterday the tracking showed just the bedford pickup. Now late today (tues) it showed columbus again but none of the in between. Now late tonight (tues) is says 'Crossing border and in transit to carrier hub 2016-06-07 10:40 pm Columbus, OH' so I guess it's not lost.

I ordered something from Amazon last week and received the Landmark tracking number today. Will I get a new tracking number from UPS or Canada post once the parcel is inside of Canada?

Good informative post.
I ordered hiking boots from USA to Vacnouver, BC. Shipping label created Sep 1. It is now sitting at Ontario at carrier hub since Sep 6.
It's been 9 days and no updates so I wonder when I will get my items :/
