Has anyone came across an efficient way to get stuff in Blaine mailboxes back?

I've got a bunch of household stuff that I ordered earlier this year thinking the border would re-open some time.

With no end in sight, I'm starting to look for ways on how to get those stuff to Canada.

I checked with the mailbox, the only thing they could do is to ship them with a courier... but at the size of those items, the shipping would probably cost as much getting those stuff in Canada.

My absolute last resort is that I have a upcoming trip to US for business that despite my best effort, I cannot avoid the trip if I want to make sure it goes the way I want. It's in NorCal and I'm really thinking to just rent a one-way car and drive back just for the sake of picking my packages up.

I've recently read an article on Torontostar that a company came up with a clever way to bypass the restrictions for CDN snowbirds... they basically charter a helicopter flight from Hamilton to Buffalo airport, and ship their car on a flatbed to Buffalo airport so their owners can reunite with their cars there.

Just wondering if any company locally have came up with solutions to pick stuff up in Blaine.
