Buying for a kitchen in Thunder Bay
Thunder Bay sits on the north shore of Lake Superior on the Trans-Canada Highway, far from both southern Ontario and Winnipeg.
It is a supply centre for northwestern Ontario, including fly-in First Nations communities whose freight moves on by air or winter road.
Distance from Norpex
Thunder Bay is about 870 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.
Freight to Thunder Bay
