Did you know when you move from Canada to the U.S. it is not necessary for you to be present when your goods cross the border? You must, however, upon entry declare your residency before your shipment can cross into the U.S. border. Both countries have specific regulations regarding the items you can or cannot import. Your move expert will be able to guide you through the list of prohibited items prior to packing your home.
Please ensure yours and your family members’ passports, birth certificates, photo ID, social insurance and security numbers are up to date prior to crossing the border.
