For example if I had a UPS parcel, I can go to the CBSA office office to do the brokerage work and get my parcel?

I believe that office is for incoming shipments handled by CP... where CBSA brokers work and inspectors do their examinations.
if you have a parcel coming in from UPS, Fedex or other courier it will be a different office. The main one for the GTA is on Britannia in Mississauga on the Pearson grounds.
Either way if you want to broker your own shipment, once you have the tracking from the sender, call into the courier immediately and tell them you want to broker it yourself.
They will call you once it reaches the Point of Entry and they'll tell you where you can complete the paperwork for CBSA.
