Nucs are sold on a first come first serve basis and will require a deposit of 100$ per nuc, get your deposits in early as we are sold out very quickly.

You may pick up your nucs in person or, a drop off service can be provided if you are within a 10km distance of Saskatoon city limits. (a 10$ drop off fee was the rate in 2022. The drop off fee will be subject to current fuel prices)
