There are more than 400 The UPS Store® locations across Canada, and most will print a label for you for a per-page fee. Two of the three options below skip that trip entirely. Here is what each one actually costs in money, time and equipment.
| At a UPS location | At home, plain paper | At home, thermal printer | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Cost to print | A per-page printing fee, charged on top of postage | Ink and paper you already have | No ink — thermal printing uses heat |
| What you need | The label on your phone, plus the trip | Any inkjet or laser printer, tape or a pouch | A 4×6 thermal printer and label stock |
| Time per label | Travel time, plus queueing at the counter | About a minute, plus cutting and taping | A few seconds — peel and stick |
| Works for batches | One parcel at a time | Yes, but every sheet needs cutting | A whole day of orders in one run |
| Rate you pay | The rate quoted at the counter that day | Whatever rate the platform you used applied | On Rollo Ship, up to 76% off UPS Standard® within Canada* |
| Reprinting a torn label | Another trip, another printing fee | Reprint from your shipment history | Reprint from the same record, no extra charge |
All three produce the same valid UPS label. Rollo Ship generates the label with no fee in every case — the printer only changes how it gets onto the box. Check what your package would cost.

Rollo Ship applies discounted UPS rates the moment you create a label — no volume minimum to reach first, no monthly fee to unlock them. Discounts differ by lane, so here is every lane you can ship from a Canadian address.

Rollo Ship calculates dimensional weight on every quote, so the rate you see at label creation is the rate you pay.
What Rollo Ship costs you
Your first 200 labels have no generation fee. After that, labels are 5¢ each, dropping to as low as 1¢ at the VIP tier of Rollo Rewards.
Estimate your UPS rate from a Canadian postal code
Enter the parcel and both postal codes to see what UPS would cost before you open an account.
Sign up with an email address and a Canadian ship-from address. There is no subscription, no monthly minimum and no separate UPS account to open first.
Type the destination and the weight, or connect a store and let orders import themselves. Rollo Ship calculates dimensional weight for you before it quotes.
See side-by-side rates and delivery dates across USPS, UPS, FedEx, Canada Post and Purolator, then pick the UPS service that matches what you promised the customer.
Print on plain paper or a thermal printer, then drop the parcel at a UPS Access Point® location or book a UPS On-Call Pickup®.
Every service below runs from the same free account, with no minimum shipping volume. Delivery commitments are UPS’s own and apply to shipments originating in Canada.
Service availability depends on origin, destination and package dimensions. The rate shown at label creation is the rate charged. For the latest on domestic and international service guarantees, see the UPS® Service Guarantee page.
Yes. Since 2024, UPS has offered committed Saturday ground delivery of residential shipments as a published, general service offering within Canada and to and from the United States. Eligible parcels arrive up to two days sooner, and you do not have to do anything differently when you create the label.
Eligibility is based on origin postal code, UPS defined Saturday delivery service territory and residential address classification or available UPS Access Point® locations. An additional fee applies for optional UPS Standard® Saturday delivery to a commercial address.
This is the question that catches out most first-time cross-border shippers. The discounted rate you see in Rollo Ship is a transportation rate. Customs charges are a separate matter, assessed by UPS after the parcel crosses.
One practical note for anyone shipping Canada to the U.S.: UPS Paperless® Invoice is a UPS service that transmits customs data digitally, so you are not attaching three printed copies of a commercial invoice to the box. UPS also restricts certain items for legal and safety reasons — check the UPS.com list of prohibited and restricted items before you ship something unusual, because shipping a restricted item can mean confiscated goods and a closed shipping account.
Generate a prepaid return label from the original shipment in a couple of clicks, then email it to the customer or drop it in the box.
A return label is only billed if it is actually used, so sending one with every order costs nothing until someone returns something.
Every label you create stays in your shipment history. If a print job jams or a label tears, reprint it from the same record at no extra charge — you are not buying a second label.
A UPS label does not carry a hard expiry date, but the rate quoted on it is tied to the day it was created. Rates change, and a label left sitting can be re-rated on delivery.
Void unused labels before your billing period closes so you are not charged for postage you never used.
Book a UPS On-Call Pickup® from your home or office directly in Rollo Ship. If you have regular volume, a Daily Pickup brings a driver by every day for a small fee.
Canada has over 1,200 UPS Access Point® locations, including The UPS Store®, UPS Customer Centre and Staples.
UPS® shipping in Canada
Every UPS® service, rate and discount on this page applies to shipments originating in Canada. Create the label on Rollo Ship and hand the parcel to UPS.
If you are shipping dozens of orders a day, creating labels one at a time is the bottleneck. Rollo Ship groups your orders, applies your saved rules, and prints the whole batch of UPS labels in a single run.
Rollo Ship uses AI-powered rate selection that groups similar orders, applies your shipping rules, and recommends the lowest-cost qualifying service before the label is printed.
Rollo Ship is more than UPS. From the same free account you can also:
Worth knowing before you set up: USPS, UPS and Canada Post rates are built into the free account, while FedEx and Purolator connect with your own carrier account. See Canada Post rates and services in Rollo Ship or connect a Purolator account.
Plain paper and tape produce a perfectly valid UPS label. But if you are printing every day — and especially through a Canadian winter, where a taped paper label is the first thing to go soggy — a thermal printer takes ink out of the equation and produces a 4×6 label in a couple of seconds.
Each Rollo product stands on its own, and they combine for compounding rewards: printing labels on Rollo Ship earns points toward lower per-label pricing and free hardware at higher tiers.
