When enabled, Purolator will calculate the shipping cost of all orders with signatures included.
Add handling fees to orders
You have the option to add a handling fee to all orders through Purolator. Choose between an amount (e.g. $2.50) or percentage (e.g. 5%). You can choose to apply the handling fee to shipping rates rather than the product costs.
