You can also clear customs for your shipment directly through Freightera.

Last week was the first time I used Freightera and I can not believe the excellent service that I experienced and the great quoted price. I had one skid to be picked up in Ohio, it was picked up on time when they said it would be. It was delivered on time when they said it would be and NOT damaged. What more can I say: Great people, great service, and great prices. Freightera will be receiving all my USA to Canada future shipments.
