I used to take loads up to Calgary. The welcome (to cross border account) packet my motor carrier gave me, one of the chapters was on In Bond blah blah blah type stuff, the biggest thing I noticed was mistakes with the In Bond paperwork could generate fines up to $100,000 bucks. So I always made sure to avoid any load leaving the US, entering Canada and returning to the US with the same load due to the risk of In Bond paperwork problems.

Times have changed. It used to be FedEx was the "go to" method of sending shipping documents back in the '80's'. By around 2000 US Customs started allowing pdf's. That was a big cost savings when I was in the import business.
I think OP may need to print his documents. The US Customs has printed them for my brother and I when we didn't have the documents before getting to the border. Otherwise try sending them by email to a truck stop to print before you get to the border. Best yet have a printer in the truck.Sirscrapntruckalot and fargonaz Thank this. -
What a mistake.
The moose thrashed that trucker's hood with his hooves, then got down and used his antlers to put some exclamation marks on the drivers door and fuel tanks.
Just be perfectly patient if a moose decides he owns the road. -
And coming back,if you cross at Coutts,you can park at the truck parking area between the scale and the border.
Right next door is Smugglers bar and grill. If ya talk nice to Shelly the bartendress,she will leave the wi-fi on so you can print off your ACE manifest to get back into the states.Last edited: Aug 24, 2018

We always complain of not being treated like professionals. Right there is a perfect example of making it harder for people who do those runs consistently, because it makes us all look like flakes.CellNet, uncleal13, andrewsdad and 4 others Thank this. -
