    Could be Kee West. Canadian based auction carrier. Mostly connected thru Adesa. They haul lots of new stuff now. My pal in Calgary says they took over Chyrsler there by cutting everyone by 35% ..... He was with Car Fre and has since sold all his gear .... to much cut throat.

    Takes patience to cross border with auto loads. To go north, US Customs has to have Vin number for 72 hours before unit is eligible for export, title must be present as vehicle crosses border, US Customs must stamp title before Canada Customs will allow unit to be imported. US and Canada have different rules on vehicles, usually all recalls must be completed. One time I brought a Suzuki back to the US as it wouldn't pass some safety requirement in Canada.

    Keewest is the worst. They single handedly ruined the next 5 years of car haul in Western Canada. And to answer the OP question.. there isn't alot of freight going North right now. We bring lease returns and auction freight down south but it's a 1 way trip.
     
    Pullin2 Thanks this.

    Oh and try not to cross at Blaine WA. They make you unload in the parking for VIN verification
