Large parcel delivery in Montreal
You have a parcel that is too large for standard courier services, but not big enough to fill a semi-truck? This is exactly the niche where choosing the right carrier makes all the difference. A poorly handled oversized parcel means a damaged product, an unhappy customer, and hidden costs that add up quickly.
At Exprex, we offer a large parcel transport service in Montreal and the greater metropolitan area. Our vehicles and team are equipped to handle shipments up to 500 pounds, with the same level of tracking and delivery proof as our standard services.
What we mean by large parcel transport
A large parcel is defined by its size, weight, or both. In practical terms, it refers to shipments that exceed standard courier limits but do not justify the cost of dedicated pallet transport.
Typical examples include:
- Single boxes over 50 pounds
- Items over 4 feet in one dimension
- Packaged equipment (machines, tools, accessories)
- Bulky but not necessarily heavy items (disassembled furniture, panels, windows)
- Grouped shipments of multiple large parcels
Traditional postal services often impose strict size and weight limits, which leads many businesses to look for solutions tailored to oversized shipments.
How our large parcel transport service works
Our large parcel transport process adapts to the nature of your shipment, whether it is a single parcel or multiple items delivered on the same route.
1. Transport request
You provide shipment details: pickup and delivery addresses, number of parcels, approximate dimensions, weight, and any special requirements (fragility, access, floor level). No complex quotation is needed—just a call or form submission to get started.
2. Pickup with appropriate equipment
An Exprex driver arrives with the right vehicle and tools (dollies, straps, protective blankets). For very heavy or bulky items, two couriers may be assigned.
3. Secure transport with real-time tracking
The parcel is properly secured to prevent movement during transit. You can track the vehicle live on our platform, and your recipient receives automated notifications.
4. Delivery with digital proof
The parcel is delivered to the agreed location, at the door or inside depending on the arrangement. Proof of delivery (photo + signature) is generated instantly and shared with all parties.

Advantages of Exprex for large parcel transport
Several factors make a difference when handling bulky items.
Our drivers are trained in safe handling of heavy goods. They use proper equipment (dollies, straps, protective blankets) and are experienced with common access constraints such as narrow stairs, service elevators, standard doors, and congested loading areas.
Our digital platform provides the same visibility as premium courier services: live GPS tracking, automated notifications, and digital proof of delivery. For retailers, this means a full end-to-end delivery experience comparable to major e-commerce players.

FAQ
What is the weight limit for large parcel transport at Exprex?
Our service covers shipments up to 500 pounds, with 2–3 day delivery times for loads between 200 and 500 pounds. Heavier shipments or those requiring specialized handling are assessed individually. Our team determines the most suitable vehicle and setup for each case.
Can you deliver a large parcel to an upper floor without an elevator?
Yes. Our drivers are trained to deliver in multi-story buildings, even without an elevator. Please specify the floor and stair access details when booking. For very heavy or bulky items, a two-person crew may be assigned.
Do I need to prepare the parcel in a specific way?
Yes. The parcel should be packed to withstand transport, vibrations, and manual handling. Reinforced packaging (double cardboard, foam, bubble wrap, padding) is strongly recommended. While our team handles goods carefully, proper preparation greatly reduces the risk of damage.
