Across the border.
Your receiver's appointment, the border crossing and the customs broker's instructions need to fit the same shipment. Move A Freight handles the transportation arrangements, with clearance handled by the shipment's customs broker. Provide the broker's contact and document requirements alongside the cargo details and dates.
The route may involve a direct trailer move, a carrier handoff or a cargo transfer. We review those arrangements and receiving requirements before booking. Customs release, inspections and border conditions can affect the schedule.
Planning your shipment
Work with the customs broker on the commercial invoice, packing details and any commodity-specific documents needed for the move.
Bring your customs broker into the booking discussion so shipment references and required documents are ready for the planned arrival. If you need an introduction, ask when requesting the quote.
We review the crossing, carrier arrangement and appointments for your route, including any transfer or bonded-movement needs.
