YES! We ship to our Canadian customers on a daily basis! The shipping costs will be extra for customers in Canada than USA because it costs us more to ship to Canada. But we have good news! We apply a shipping credit like we do all USA customers. So, if you are in Canada, you get the same Free Shipping offer that our USA customers get. We have built-in “Shipping Allowances” for each bird cage we sell. So lets say you buy a bird cage for $99.95 on our website with free shipping. And let’s say the built-in “Shipping Allowance” for that cage is $20. We then calculate the total shipping costs of the bird cage to ship to you. Let’s say the total shipping costs was $75.00. We then deduct the built-in shipping allowances from the total costs and you only pay the difference ($75 total shipping costs - $20 shipping allowance = $55 additional). So to recap shipping costs to Canada:

Example:
  $75.00: Total Shipping Costs to Canada
 -$20.00: Shipping Allowance (This is a an example)
  $55.00: Additional Shipping Costs Due

We are the only bird cage company that applies Shipping Allowance for Canada customer. Most bird cage retailers charge the full shipping costs. We treat our Canadian customers like they are from the USA!

We ship often to Canada so we know this process very well. Please trust us in this process as we have been shipping to Canada for over 15 years.

To get the total shipping costs, please place your order online. We will e-mail you within 24 hours communicating to you what the extra shipping costs will be. We will NOT process or your ship your order until we hear back from you that you approve the additional charges. Once you get our email outlining the shipping costs, you can give us approval to ship or cancel your order.

We can expedite the shipping for your order; however you are responsible for the expedited shipping costs. Our Free Shipping offer only applies to Ground Shipping. Because our bird cages are heavy in weight, usually expedited shipping is not a practical and economic option for you. We realize that you need your bird cage for your feather friends asap, however the extra costs to expedite the shipping is usually cost prohibitive.

If you want to order Expedited Shipping, please e-mail us at customerservice@birdcages4less.com with your Name and Order Number. After receiving this info, we will e-mail you a quote. Please respond to us as to your decision - Expedited Shipping or Ground Shipping.

We understand that sometimes you can get frustrated with a resolution. We can assure you that at Bird Cages 4 Less we take every customer service issue seriously and always try “to do the right thing”. Our company operates as a team and all issues get circulated to the entire team and when a decision is made regarding a potential resolution on a customer service issue we take a team consensus and make a company decision. Whatever decision has been made has been made based on process, facts, and the utmost integrity. At Bird Cages 4 Less, we all work as a team so there are no Supervisors. One of our team members will be more than happy to talk with you, but “talking to a Supervisor” is not going to get your issue resolved any faster than what is currently being done.

Also, because there are several pieces of information we need to resolve a potential issue, please be patient in the process. I know it may not seem that we are not working fast enough but when dealing with other third parties (Shipping carriers, suppliers, etc.) we are at the mercy of their response which takes more time in the overall resolution process. Be patience and trust in our process so that we can get the right solution for you the customer.

Bird Cages 4 Less was founded in 1995 in Tempe, Arizona. Originally, the company was a bird cage retailer and wholesaler with an 8,000 square foot warehouse. As the Internet evolved, the company noticed that most of their business came from customers buying through the company website, rather than local sales. So to seize the opportunities on the Internet, the company closed their retail location (Why have a retail location when no customers ever visited!) and focused on the telesales and Internet for their growth in marketing and selling bird cages and supplies. 19 years later, Bird Cages 4 Less continues to be the leading Internet retailer in bird cages and bird aviaries with over 30,000 customers in USA and Canada.

We have so many customers we lost count! Seriously, our customer base is over 30,000 with hundreds of customers being added each week!
