Has anyone used ACE shipping?

I don't need anything shipped right now, just looking at some possible options for transportation for older chicks or mature birds. Would be nice to know if anyone has used them for birds or eggs and what they thought of the service and cost.
Thanks!

I have used them a lot. I have been very happy with Medicine Hat to Brooks, Calgary and Red Deer. But have had issues to Edmonton. The last shipment went to Edmonton without any issues, but the two before had issues of cold warehouses and chicks put in them...
I have even shipped to Castlegar BC with them, only lost 2 chicks in the 25 chick order, still overnight delivery there too from here.
Prices are pretty good, around $35 to anywhere direct they deliver. I have always had people pick up directly at the depots though, havent done the local deliveries from the depot (for example St. Albert from Edmonton) just takes too long into the next day to get them delivered, I prefer they are picked up ASAP in the mornings, so just a pointer if you do use them.
The fellow in Medicine Hat is very great to work with, small town personal feel, not sure what the depots are like anywhere else?

Ace couriers are all owner operators, on the lower end of the industry, so you take your chances. Sometimes you get what you pay for.

I will add, 22 years in this industry, I wouldn't use them. Some will have good things to say, some won't. The experience will differ.

I have also had good experience with them. It is true that you can pay more for the same service but my experience has taught me that you don't always get a better service by paying more.

I would like to hear more about ACE courier, I never heard of them. For shipping eggs now I use greyhound, but even that is expensive. I like the bus, the eggs don't go in the air and deal with ups and downs, and oops, perhaps throwing the box down a conveyor belt . Dan you have had first hand experience with that, 24 eggs, 2 hatched, something not right there, think it was the air shipment. I guess across Canada, the airways must be used, but for B.C. and Alberta, greyhound all the way. Think it has been between $25-30 tops anywhere I have shipped. BUT....now live birds, nope greyhound I don't think will. So would like to hear more about ACE courier system. Have a wonderful and beautiful day, CynthiaM.

Greyhound has a policy that they don't ship live chicks/ chickens but some of the smaller outlets are not aware of that. ie Greyhound Calgary will not accept live chicks even in a pet carrier but yet a poultry guy sent me chicks via Greyhound from a smaller outlet in northern Alberta and when my wife picked them up from Calgary the man there seemed put out and said that they are not supposed to accept them for shipping . I asked at Airdrie Alberta and they said that they will take them but they are not supposed to. No matter who you use to ship with it is possible for the shipper to treat your shipment in a rough manner and maybe causing damaged air cells or embryo death.
