From 8050 Heritage Road, carriers can reach Highway 401, Highway 407 ETR, and Highway 410/10 via short connector routes, giving fast access to GTA consumer markets, Pearson International Airport, and regional intermodal yards. Local bus services also stop directly at the facility, supporting staffing and driver access and helping to keep appointment windows and dock turns predictable.

  • Box & Pallet Labels:

    • Each carton requires a unique FBA Box ID label generated in Seller Central (.ca)

    • Each pallet requires four FBA pallet labels (one per side), applied outside the stretch wrap with barcodes unobstructed and fully scannable

  • Wrapping & Stability: Clear stretch wrap; stable, cubic loads with no overhang beyond pallet edges. Use corner boards, strapping, and layer pads where needed to maintain stability and protect cartons during loading, transit, and unloading.

  • Floor-Loaded / FCL: Follow Amazon’s North America Floor Loading Policy. Keep SKUs clearly segregated, maintain safe stack heights, and load cartons to support efficient unloading and scanning. Non-compliant or poorly prepared floor-loads may be delayed, require rework at the shipper’s cost, or be refused at receiving.

  • Slip Sheets: Only where explicitly allowed by current Amazon Canada guidance and confirmed in the Carrier Central appointment notes. Where such confirmation is not available, plan for conventional palletized unloading at YYZ4.
