Shipping Update: November 15

We’re writing to let you know that as of November 15, 2024, Canada Post workers have initiated a strike mandate and as a result there will be no package or mail deliveries until the strike is resolved.

Here at National Scale Car, we rely on Canada Post & their seamless integration with the United States Postal Service to deliver our products and keep shipping costs low.

We’re still optimistic for a timely resolution of the strike; however, we will be holding off on shipping new orders until Canada Post resumes service.  Please contact us with any questions or concerns.…
