Does anyone know of or could recommend a hauling company that has the right equipment to pickup a loaded 40 ft shipping container in the US and transport and drop in Canada?
We have a property up there with an old stripped out cottage thats worth restoring. I have access to a large amount of building materials (windows,doors,cabinets,appliances) very cheap down here in the Us and would like to bring up there to use for the project. I have seen a couple companies online but was wondering if anyone has had any experience in doing something similar.

Just wondering about dealing with customs? I last ran across the border 2006-2008 time frame hauling tires to Toronto. That was all cut and dried with the paperwork. Back in the late seventies though, I was pulling cedar logs out of Canada while dead heading in. The stateside location sent used equipment north to be used at the Canadian location. Even though it was "inhouse", customs placed a value on the equipment which the company had to pay. Been too long to remember the numbers or how it was paid. Mostly a pain in the backside on my part sitting around when I would like to have been driving. Also, the equipment was on a flatbed so it could easily be inspected.
