Buying for a kitchen in Victoria
Victoria is on Vancouver Island, so freight from the mainland arrives by ferry or barge.
Tourism and the provincial government keep many hotel, restaurant and institutional kitchens busy around the Inner Harbour and downtown.
Heritage buildings downtown can have narrow doors and stairs, so measure the route in before ordering large equipment.
Before you buy, check equipment requirements with Island Health.
Distance from Norpex
Victoria is about 3,310 km from Norpex's base in Waterloo, in a straight line.
Equipment ships from distributor warehouses rather than from Waterloo, so that figure is a sense of scale, not the distance your freight travels. The charge comes from live carrier rates for your address.
