As of today, November 15, 2024, Canada Post workers have commenced a nationwide strike after failing to reach an agreement with the postal operator. This action affects both Urban and Rural and Suburban Mail Carriers (RSMC) bargaining units, leading to significant disruptions in mail and parcel processing and delivery.
At EyeDropShop, we are committed to ensuring your orders are delivered promptly. To mitigate the impact of this strike, we have transitioned to alternative carriers such as FedEx and Purolator for most shipments. However, please be aware that deliveries to PO Boxes and certain rural areas may experience delays, as these locations are primarily serviced by Canada Post.
We understand the importance of timely deliveries, especially for essential eye care products, and are taking all necessary steps to minimize any inconvenience. Our team is closely monitoring the situation and will keep you informed of any further changes to our shipping services.
We appreciate your patience and understanding during this time. If you have any questions or concerns, please don't hesitate to reach out to our customer service team—we're here to assist you.
Thank you for choosing EyeDropShop.
Best,
- The Eye Drop Shop Team
