Which Canadian carriers can I track with Parcel Monitor?

Pretty much all of them. Canada has around 200 carriers running everything from coast-to-coast freight to local same-day delivery — and we cover the lot. The big names: Canada Post, Purolator, UPS Canada, FedEx Canada, DHL Canada. The local last-mile heroes who actually drop the package at your door: Intelcom Express (Amazon's go-to), Canpar, TForce, Loomis. Plus 1,100+ international carriers if your order's coming from overseas. Just paste any tracking number and we'll spot the carrier for you — no dropdown, no guessing, no logging into five different sites.

What does a Canadian tracking number look like?

Depends on the carrier — every one has its own format. Canada Post numbers usually run 13 to 16 characters, often starting with two letters (like LX, RT, or CA) or all digits. FedEx tracking numbers are 12 digits. UPS numbers run 18 characters starting with "1Z." Purolator uses 10 to 12 digits. Don't sweat the format — just paste whatever string of letters and numbers came in your order confirmation email or shipping notification. We'll spot the carrier automatically and start tracking. If something looks off, we'll flag it before you waste time guessing.

How long will my package take to arrive in Canada?

Depends on where it's coming from and how it's shipping. Within Canada, standard shipping usually takes 3 to 7 business days; express drops that to 1 to 3 days, and same-day is available in major cities for some retailers. Coming from the US? Most orders land in 3 to 10 days, depending on the carrier and how quickly customs clears it at the border. From overseas (China, UK, EU), expect anywhere from 7 days to 6 weeks, with customs adding a few days at the border. Whatever the estimate, paste your tracking number and we'll show you the actual journey, not just a guess.

Which Canadian retailers can I track with Parcel Monitor?

If they ship it, we'll track it. The big international names you order from all the time: Amazon Canada, Walmart, Best Buy, Costco, Apple, Wayfair. The Canadian classics: Canadian Tire, Hudson's Bay, Indigo, SportChek, Roots. The global fast-fashion and discount sites: SHEIN, AliExpress, Temu, Zalando. The smaller stuff too — that one Etsy seller you found at 1am, the indie skincare brand on Instagram, the niche electronics shop. Whatever you've bought, wherever it's shipping from, drop the tracking number and we'll track it home.

Why isn't my Canada Post tracking updating?

Heads up — Canada Post tracking only updates when your package gets physically scanned, not when the shipping label is created. If your number was issued in the last day or two, your package is probably still waiting for that first scan at the depot. Give it a day and check back. If it's been longer, drop the number in the box above and we'll go find where it actually is. No silent gaps, no guessing — you'll see exactly where the scan stopped, so you know whether to sit tight or reach out to the sender.

The package is out for delivery, when will it arrive?

It's almost here. Most Canadian carriers run delivery routes between 9am and 7pm local time on weekdays. Canada Post usually wraps up by 5pm; Purolator and FedEx Canada can run as late as 8pm, especially during peak season. Amazon Logistics and Intelcom Express sometimes show up as late as 10pm. If the end of day rolls around and your package still hasn't landed, the scan usually updates to "Delivery attempted" or quietly rolls to the next business day — nothing for you to do, we're already on it.

My package hasn't moved in days, is it lost?

Probably not. A package can sit in one status for 3 to 7 days without being lost — weather delays, peak-season backlogs, customs processing, and the occasional missed scan all cause this. Cross-border packages are especially prone to long quiet stretches at CBSA or between provinces. Drop your number in the box above and we'll flag exactly when the last scan happened. If it's been more than a week with zero movement, that's the point to reach out to the carrier or sender to look into it.

Can I track packages coming from the US to Canada?

Yes — and we know that handoff well. Cross-border packages usually start with a US carrier (USPS, UPS, FedEx), cross at the border, then get handed off to a Canadian carrier (Canada Post, Purolator, Intelcom) for the last mile to your door. We track every step — origin, customs, the border crossing, the handoff, the local delivery. Just paste your US tracking number and we'll follow it home, no matter how many carriers it touches along the way.

How do I track a Canada Post package?

Easy — drop your Canada Post tracking number into the box at the top of this page. Canada Post numbers are usually 13 to 16 characters, often starting with two letters (like LX, RT, CA) or all digits. We pull the latest status straight from Canada Post, including handoffs to last-mile carriers — so if your package switches from Canada Post to a local courier for the final stretch, you still see the full journey. No account, no signup, free always. We're on it the second you paste.

Can I track Amazon Canada, SHEIN, and AliExpress orders here?

Yes — and we love a haul. We track Amazon Logistics packages plus anything Amazon ships through Canada Post, UPS, or Purolator. For SHEIN and AliExpress, we've got the regional carriers they hand off to — YunExpress, 4PX, China Post, Canada Post for the last mile, and the rest. Just paste the tracking number from your order confirmation. Wherever your favourite retailers ship from, we'll track it home — one place, every order, no jumping between five apps to figure out where your stuff is.

Does this work with Purolator, UPS Canada, and FedEx Canada?

Yes — and pretty much anyone else who delivers in Canada. We've got every major Canadian carrier covered: Canada Post, Purolator, UPS Canada, FedEx Canada, DHL Canada, plus regional last-mile crews like Intelcom Express, Canpar, and Loomis. Shopping from overseas? We track 1,100+ carriers worldwide, so cross-border orders come in too. Just paste any tracking number and we'll spot the carrier automatically — no dropdowns, no logging into five different sites. One place, every package, always free.

Do I need to sign up to track a package?

Nope — drop your tracking number in the box above and you're tracking. No signup, no email, no account. You'll see the full status, where your package is right now, and when it should land — all in seconds. Signing up is optional and only matters if you'd like us to handle things automatically: connect Gmail once and we'll pull every future order in for you, no copy-paste, no manual tracking ever again. Either way, the tracking itself is free — always.
