Help! McMaster Carr will not ship to Canada

[RoboChair]

Ask McMaster for sponsorship! Talk with their customer reps and track down someone to ask/talk about adding your team to their shipping list.

This hasn't worked in the past. Maybe it will in the future.

I've always gotten that email when trying to order an item without a business/orginization address even after they opened up to international shipments. I don't believe it's a policy change.

If this has to do with export laws or taxation, this will likely not affect the outcome of receiving as an individual. I'd be curious to find out what export issues they are encountering.

Getting the school PO (purchase order) system as the tag along should work. We pass all of our McMaster orders through that.

There are none. They're choosing not to sell to international customers because they got burned once and they don't want to deal with the hassle of doing it again.
