Parcel Packaging
All packages must be securely packaged in a sturdy box to avoid damage and leaking. Place breakable items or liquid substances within a strong outer container to avoid damaging other items. Canadian Forces Morale Mail is not insurable or traceable.
In order to avoid confusion (ie when there are other labels, barcodes etc. on the box), all packages must be wrapped in plain, brown paper which is located at both PMFRC locations. The address is written directly on the paper with the contents of the package in the lower left corner.
Customs Forms are required when sending parcels through Morale Mail. You may get these at the South Side Community Centre, PMFRC North Side, CANEX Super Mart, or Base Mailroom.
Addressing Your Package
Place the return address on the top-left corner of the parcel.
The receivers address is placed in the centre of the box, written clearly in uppercase letters.
A list of all contents should be written in the lower left corner of the package.
If your package is being sent to Ukraine, you will need to fill out an additional load list that will be placed in an envelope and taped to the side of your package.
Mailing Address
Addresses for overseas operations may be found on the Government of Canada website.
