Bringing Items Across the Border
« on: December 15, 2009, 12:58:34 PM »
Looking at bringing 5 rims up from the states. Want to do it the cheapest way possible even if that means driving down to pick them up. Ideas?

Shipping USPS is usually the cheapest and no hidden costs

A lot of times, you can ship them to "the UPS store" and pick them up there, if shipping ups.  Keep in mind, it still is sometimes cheaper to have things shipped UPS.  I just had a set of 22's shipped from california for about $250.  Keep in mind that these rims were over 50 lbs each and the boxes were HUGE (24x24x12).  I priced out shipping to nd or mt and driving down to pickup and by the time you factor fuel, lost work, possible hotel room, and the fact my passport is expired, it made more sense just to have them shipped to my door!! :o

I just worry about duty charges that will be unnecessary. I guess if the forms are filled out right there shouldn't be a problem.
