Update: November 2023
Deliveries and Shipments outside of Southern Ontario are completed for 2023.
Submission of 2024 pre-orders for cross-Canada deliveries/shipments is open.
Due to the colder temperatures, we have ended shipments via Canada Post for the year.
Deliveries to addresses in the L, M, & N postal code areas are still open and all deliveries originate from our Rodney location.
With the spring rush now behind us, our delivery fee structure has been updated to account for the lower volume of delivery orders.
The new fee structure allows us to cover our costs of performing a delivery run with fewer orders, so that our clients can receive their plants in a more timely fashion.
When placing a Delivery order, two options are displayed.
A. Tropic of Canada – For this option, we will deliver the order ourselves when we have enough additional orders to cover the cost of a delivery run to the specified area.
B. ToC Express – As option A, but fully covers our cost of delivering to the specified area so that delivery will be made at our earliest opportunity.
This table shows our delivery fee structure, before taxes.
