How mail order works for St. Catharines
Express courier, tracked to your address
Every order to the Garden City ships by tracked express courier, and the tracking number lands in your inbox once the parcel leaves. You order on the website, with no app to download and no account to create.
After checkout, Niagara buyers get the Interac e-Transfer details by text or email. Send the payment and the parcel ships once it lands. Transit into the Niagara Region then takes 24 to 72 hours in most cases.
First orders take a little longer than repeat ones. GasDank checks ID for every new client before a first order is processed, but it is a one-time step.
Tracking pages generally show the parcel being picked up, moving through the courier network and heading out for delivery. If you see no movement for longer than the usual window, that is the moment to get in touch.

Before you place a St. Catharines order
A quick check now saves a delay later.
- You are 19 or older, with government photo ID for the first-order check
- Your address includes the unit number or entrance, if you have one
- The postal code matches the one on your mail
- Your banking app can send an Interac e-Transfer
- You have checked whether your cart reaches $150 for free shipping
- You will be home when tracking shows the parcel is close
- Your lease or residence rules allow what you plan to do
What shipping costs and how to get it free
Shipping to a Garden City address costs $20 when your cart is under $150. At $150 or more it is free, and checkout shows which applies before you confirm.
There is no minimum order, which suits a single pack of pre-rolls as well as a bigger restock. If you would otherwise order twice in a month, combining both into one cart over $150 saves the shipping fee.
Beyond that, a Niagara order carries just one more cost: the $5 Interac e-Transfer fee.
Paying by Interac e-Transfer
Mail order to Niagara is paid by Interac e-Transfer only. No cash changes hands, since no driver comes to the door and the courier collects nothing.
The e-Transfer carries a $5 fee. Expect the payment instructions by text or email after checkout, and know that the parcel is released for shipping when your transfer is received.
Pay the full amount in one transfer. A short payment holds an order until the balance arrives. If anything about the amount looks off, text 647-660-7351 before you send it.

Addresses in older Niagara neighbourhoods
Downtown and the streets around it have plenty of older houses converted into flats, plus apartments above shops on St. Paul Street. Put the unit or the side entrance in the address lines.
Near Brock University, student rentals often hold several tenants at one address. Order in your own name, add your room or unit, and keep an eye on tracking so the box does not sit on a shared porch.
Newer subdivisions in the south end and near the escarpment are simpler, but double-check the postal code if your street is new. Rural lots on the edges of the city and in neighbouring Lincoln or Niagara-on-the-Lake should use the full civic number.
Timing and weather along the QEW
Most parcels reach the city 24 to 72 hours after shipping. Niagara winters tend to be milder than those in much of Ontario, but snow and freezing rain on the QEW and the Garden City Skyway can still slow parcels. If a parcel is due on a stormy day, check the tracking before assuming it is lost.
Long weekends add time as well. Plan ahead of Victoria Day or Thanksgiving if you want a parcel before the holiday.
When tracking stalls, call or text 647-660-7351. Customer service runs 8 AM to 2 AM Eastern (until 3 AM Thursday to Saturday).
Students at Brock University
Residence rules come first
Brock University sits on the escarpment at the south edge of the city, and many students live in residence or in rentals around Glenridge and over the line in Thorold.
Provincial law keeps cannabis smoke and vapour out of the shared indoor spaces of campus residences, and Brock or a landlord can set stricter rules. Check yours before you order. Off-campus leases in Glenridge and Thorold can restrict smoking and growing too.
First-year students who are still 18 cannot order. GasDank ships only to customers who have turned 19.
Ontario cannabis law in St. Catharines
Provincial and federal rules apply across Niagara. Each card's number matches a source at the foot of the page.
The age line
Recreational cannabis in Ontario, including buying, possessing, using and growing it, is limited to people 19 and older, the same threshold as alcohol and tobacco.[1]
Public carrying
Up to 30 grams of dried cannabis, or its equivalent, may be carried in public at any time, which is about one ounce.[1]
Product equivalents
For counting purposes, 15 grams of an edible, 70 grams of a liquid, 5 grams of fresh cannabis, 0.25 grams of concentrate or a single seed each equal 1 gram of dried cannabis.[1]
Growing
Four plants per residence, not per adult, for personal use only, grown from material bought from an authorized source and not barred by the lease or condo rules.[1]
Banned places
Smoking or vaping cannabis is illegal in enclosed public places and workplaces, in sheltered spots like bus shelters, on restaurant and bar patios, within 9 metres of a hospital entrance and within 20 metres of school grounds and playgrounds.[1]
Vehicles and boats
Consuming cannabis in any form, edibles included, is not permitted in a vehicle or boat being driven or set to be driven.[1]
THC and driving limits
Blood THC from 2 to under 5 nanograms per millilitre can bring a fine of up to $1,000, while 5 nanograms or more can bring up to 10 years in prison.[3]
How edibles behave
Health Canada reports that effects from eaten or drunk cannabis can start 30 minutes to 2 hours after consuming it and last up to 24 hours.[2]
“If you eat or drink cannabis, these effects can occur within 30 minutes to 2 hours and can last up to 24 hours.”
Edibles: slow to start, long to last
As the quote says, edibles can take up to 2 hours to kick in, because they pass through digestion before they reach your bloodstream. Smoking or vaping, by contrast, shows up within seconds to minutes.
A small first piece, a full 2-hour wait and no alcohol is the safest pattern. The effects can last up to 24 hours, so keep the following morning free of anything that needs a clear head, driving included.
Store edibles in their original packaging. To a child, a gummy is just candy.
Driving in Niagara after cannabis
On the QEW, Highway 406 or Glendale Avenue, the same federal THC limits apply here as anywhere in Canada.
A level of 2 nanograms of THC per millilitre of blood can lead to a summary charge and a fine of up to $1,000, and 5 nanograms or more can lead to a hybrid charge carrying up to 10 years in prison. Combining drinks with cannabis has its own threshold at 50 milligrams of alcohol per 100 millilitres of blood plus 2.5 nanograms of THC.
A cab, a sober friend or the bus is the plan. Edibles can keep working for hours, so leave the car parked after one.
Patio season downtown and the 9 metre rule
In summer, restaurants and bars along St. Paul Street and around the downtown core set out patios. Ontario bans smoking or vaping cannabis on a restaurant or bar patio and within 9 metres of one, and on a busy downtown sidewalk that buffer adds up quickly.
The same goes for the enclosed spaces you pass through: lobbies, workplaces and other enclosed public places are smoke-free. Bus shelters count as well, even though they are outdoors.
If you want to use cannabis after a night out downtown, the simple answer is to wait until you are home, and to let someone sober do the driving.
Ordering to St. Catharines in six steps
The steps on your side are quick, and transit time starts after payment.
Start a cart
Add any mix of flower, edibles, vapes or concentrates. Nothing needs to reach a minimum.
Enter a Niagara address
Give the street, unit, city and postal code exactly as your mail shows them. That tells checkout to use mail order shipping.
Look at shipping
Under $150, you will see $20. At $150 or above, shipping shows as free.
Verify your age
Confirm you are 19 or older. If you are new, GasDank checks your ID before the order goes ahead.
Transfer the payment
Use the details sent by text or email, with the $5 fee included. Payment has to land before the parcel ships.
Track the box
Tracking arrives by email once it ships. Allow 24 to 72 hours from there.
What you can order to Niagara
Everything on the site ships to the Garden City: flower from value grades to AAA and AAAA, pre-rolls, edibles, vape cartridges and disposables, hash and shatter, and CBD products for little or no high.
Each product page lists THC and CBD when available, the strain type and the grade. For a first order, a mid-strength product in a small amount teaches you more than a high-THC splurge.
Stock moves fast, and the deals page is where current offers live. Larger quantities have their own bulk weed page.
Picking a format if you are new
Pre-rolls are the simplest start if you want to smoke without any gear. Vapes heat oil instead of burning flower, and some people find them less harsh. A cartridge needs a compatible battery, while a disposable comes ready to use.
Edibles act slowest and last longest, so they suit a quiet evening at home more than anything on a schedule. Concentrates such as hash and shatter are much stronger per gram than flower and are best left until you know your tolerance.
Whatever you choose, start low. The THC figure on the product page is the most useful single guide to strength, more than the strain name or the type label.
Port Dalhousie, the lake and summer storage
Heat, humidity and the water
Summers by Lake Ontario get warm and muggy. Keep flower in a sealed glass jar away from sunny windows, and never leave vape cartridges in a car at Lakeside Park or in the Pen Centre lot in July.
Anyone heading onto Lake Ontario from Port Dalhousie or Port Weller should know the vehicle rule covers boats too. No cannabis in any form on a boat that is being driven or will be driven.
Edibles soften in the heat, so a cool cupboard beats a counter by a window.
Neighbouring Niagara towns and Hamilton
Every Niagara town ships on the same terms as the Garden City. Thorold, Niagara-on-the-Lake, Niagara Falls, Welland, Lincoln, Grimsby, Pelham and Fort Erie all pay $20 under $150 and nothing at $150 or more.
Hamilton has its own mail order page, and so does Burlington, which sits inside the GTA delivery area.
If you shop on a budget, the value flower page gathers lower-priced options in one place.
St. Catharines neighbourhoods we ship to
Every address in the city gets the same mail order terms. Each note flags the address detail that matters most in that part of town.
Downtown
St. Paul Street and the blocks around Montebello Park, the Meridian Centre and the FirstOntario Performing Arts Centre. Apartments above shops need the unit and entrance.
Port Dalhousie
The lakeside north end around Lakeside Park and Martindale Pond. Older homes sit beside condos, and the condos need unit numbers.
Western Hill
West of downtown near Ridley College and Twelve Mile Creek, where some older homes are split into flats. Note upper or lower.
Merritton
The southeast end along the old canal route, a former mill town with a small-town grid. House numbers usually do the job.
Glenridge and the south end
Near Brock University and the escarpment, with student rentals and newer houses. Add your room or unit in any shared rental.
Grantham and the north end
Residential streets between downtown and the lake, mostly detached houses. A visible house number helps.
Facer and the east end
Older neighbourhoods near the Welland Canal. Walk-up flats need the unit spelled out.
Lakeport and Port Weller
Along the lake near the canal's north entrance. Use the full civic address.
Martindale and the west end
Newer subdivisions near Fourth Avenue and Martindale Road, where townhouses need unit numbers.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I order weed online to St. Catharines?
Yes. GasDank ships to addresses across the Garden City by tracked express courier, and most parcels arrive 24 to 72 hours after they ship. There is no minimum order, shipping is $20 under $150, and orders of $150 or more ship free. Payment is by Interac e-Transfer, and the tracking number is emailed once the box leaves, so you can follow it from shipment to your door.
How long does mail order take to reach Niagara?
Allow 24 to 72 hours once the parcel has shipped. A first order also waits for the new client ID check, and every order waits for its e-Transfer before it leaves. Snow or freezing rain on the QEW and long weekends can add time, and the tracking emailed to you shows each step.
Is there a minimum order for St. Catharines?
No. Any amount can ship, from one pre-roll pack to a full restock. Shipping is the only thing that changes with cart size: $20 below $150, and free at $150 or more. Combining two smaller orders into one is a simple way to skip the fee.
Do you ship to Thorold and Niagara-on-the-Lake?
Yes. Thorold, Niagara-on-the-Lake, Niagara Falls, Welland, Lincoln, Grimsby, Pelham and Fort Erie all ship by tracked mail on the same terms as the Garden City: $20 under $150, free at $150 or more and no minimum. Enter the town name that appears on your mail so checkout and the courier both read the address correctly.
What does shipping to St. Catharines cost?
A Garden City order pays $20 for shipping when the cart is under $150 and nothing when it reaches $150. Checkout applies it from your postal code and shows it before you confirm. The $5 fee for paying by Interac e-Transfer is the one extra charge.
Can I pay cash, or is it e-Transfer only?
It is e-Transfer only. Mail order to Niagara is paid by Interac e-Transfer with a $5 fee, because no driver visits and the courier does not take payment. The details come by text or email after you order, and the parcel ships as soon as the transfer arrives.
Does same-day delivery reach Niagara or only the GTA?
Only the GTA. Same-day service runs in Toronto and the GTA cities on our delivery page, and the closest of them to St. Catharines is Burlington. Every Niagara address, along with Hamilton, gets tracked mail order instead. An order sent to a Burlington address, which is in the GTA, follows Burlington's same-day rules.
Do I need ID to order?
Yes. Every buyer confirms they are 19 or older at checkout, and GasDank verifies a new client's ID before that client's first order is processed. Order under the exact name printed on your government photo ID. Once you are verified, repeat orders to Niagara move straight on to shipping after payment.
What is the legal age in St. Catharines?
The legal age is 19, as it is everywhere in Ontario, for buying, possessing, using or growing recreational cannabis. That matches the provincial age for alcohol and tobacco. Brock students who are still 18 have to wait until their birthday, since GasDank ships only to people 19 and older.
How much cannabis can I have on me in public?
In public you can carry 30 grams of dried cannabis at most, roughly an ounce, or an equal amount of other products. Ontario counts 15 grams of edibles, 70 grams of a cannabis beverage or 0.25 grams of concentrate as equal to 1 gram of dried flower. The limit is the same at Port Dalhousie as anywhere else in Niagara.
Can I grow cannabis at home in Niagara?
Yes, up to 4 plants per residence, a limit shared by everyone in the household. Growers must be 19 or older, grow for personal use, and start from seeds or plants bought from an authorized source. Leases and condo rules can still forbid it, which matters for renters near Brock.
Where can I smoke weed in St. Catharines?
Ontario allows it in private residences and in many outdoor public places such as sidewalks and parks, though bylaws and landlords can add limits. It is banned in enclosed public places, indoor common areas of condos and apartments, within 20 metres of schools and playgrounds, on restaurant and bar patios and in bus shelters.
How long do edibles take?
Health Canada says effects from eating or drinking cannabis can begin 30 minutes to 2 hours after you take it and can last up to 24 hours. Take a small piece, wait the full 2 hours before having more, skip alcohol and keep the car keys out of reach for the rest of the day.
Is the parcel discreet?
Yes. Niagara orders ship in discreet packaging, and the tracking number comes by email. In a shared student house or a building with a common mail area, follow the tracking and bring the box inside soon after it arrives. That habit alone avoids a lot of lost-parcel headaches.
Can Brock students order to residence?
Check your residence agreement first. Provincial law bans smoking and vaping cannabis in the indoor common areas of university residences, and the university can add its own rules. If you live off campus in Glenridge or Thorold, put your own name and unit on the order, and remember you must be 19 or older.
How do I reach GasDank customer service?
From anywhere in Niagara, phone or text 647-660-7351 while customer service is open, 8 AM to 2 AM Eastern (until 3 AM Thursday to Saturday). That is Niagara's own time zone, so no conversion is needed. Have the order name and the address you shipped to ready, and mention the city so the parcel is easy to look up.
