Save Yourself from Sleet - We'll Go Out For You!
Fall's chill has started in Winnipeg and that's been noticeable over the last few days with the frozen rain that has been falling.
No one likes a cold rain, but one that starts solid and finishes semi-liquid is even worse. The result can be treacherous on our tires, our shoes and our bodies as a whole. We're not quite ready to give up on our style, but the need for shoebags and rubbers is definitely increasing as we get closer to the dreaded first snowfall in Winnipeg.
For drivers, this also means doing things like winter tune ups, changing from bug juice to antifreeze solutions for your windshield fluid and, perhaps most importantly, staying off the road as much as possible. We're not quite ready for winter commuting and as such we're more inclined to order in than go out and may even hold back from doing the in-person visits with clients we did over the summer when deliveries were easier.
Not to fear - Sierra Courier is here.
Sierra can make those quick deliveries for you and save you from the guessing game of bundling up and the frustration of having to see through fogging windows and sleeting rainfall. Let our drivers do the work for you and you'll reap the rewards of staying warm while having your packages delivered intact.

Sierra Closed for Labour Day
As the Winnipeg Blue Bombers get set to deliver a Labour Day Classic victory to devoted fans in the River City, Sierra Courier prepares to rest up as our offices will be closed on Monday.
We're more than confident that Drew Willy will lead the boys in blue and gold to victory this weekend at Mosaic, while we take comfort at home and enjoy a great weekend primarily outdoors and in front of our television sets.
Okay, so maybe we're not being realistic - the Bombers' record the past few years during the Classic should in theory be a partial indicator of what will happen this weekend, but we like to keep our hopes up.
Regardless of the outcome, there will be excitement delivered on the gridiron. While we may not make the trip across the provincial border, we will be cheering our boys on from the comforts of Winnipeg.
Have a great Labour Day Weekend Winnipeg, and we look forward to working with you again on Tuesday!
Delivering Winnipeg Jets Excitement
Today was the day that hockey fans had been waiting all summer for - the first official day of Winnipeg Jets training camp.
All the speculation and banter over the last few months comes to a head with public sessions this weekend. This will be the first time that new pick-ups like Nikolasj Ehlers will be seen in the 'Peg by our hockey hardcores, while returnees like Andrew Ladd and Mark Scheifele will be re-introduced and show what they did to improve their game over the summer.
No matter what happens this season, the Jets will be delivering excitement on the ice, and Sierra Courier will be on hand.
In the past, you've seen Sierra advertisements at the MTS Centre and we are continuing this year. Watch our site in the coming weeks to get a preview of the fun we're going to have for Winnipeg hockey fans for the 2014-15 NHL season.
Get ready fans, puck drop is coming soon!
Delivering the World to Winnipeg
Winnipeg is home to some unique events during a calendar year, but none compare to Folklorama.
A renowned event, Folklorama brings the best of all cultures and homelands to our city for a two week period, giving our city - and tourists - a taste of cultures we may not otherwise explore.
Organizing such a festival is a feat of immeasurable time and effort. Consider just how much careful planning goes into an individual pavilion, you can slowly see a picture form of the busyness that surrounds Folklorama.
Delivering a culture - let alone the globe - to Winnipeg doesn't just happen by itself. Organizers will put a lot of careful consideration into the setup and the logistics of putting together a temporary venue. Artifacts will come from across a community for displays, props for stages performances must be assembled (and at times imported!) and food stations in otherwise non-serving venues must be on the ready long before the first passport is stamped.
Delicacy is the name of the game here, especially when you're handling items on temporary donation, and anyone who handles one of these treasures treats it as their own, just as we do at Sierra Courier when you entrust us with your delivery.
Whether it's an envelope, a large package or crates of cargo, Sierra treats your package with the respect it deserves, ensuring that it arrives in the same condition as when you first gave it to us.
So whether you're sending a package across the world, or bringing the world to Winnipeg, trust your valued delivery with Sierra Courier.
