Default Champlain Border new York / Quebec

I need to leave a car on the American side for a few days while I wait for some paperwork to clean US customs before I import the car into Canada.

Does anyone know or remember a place to drop ship a car in a protected place for a day or two?

I remember a place near the border right across the 89 from Freeport Freight Forwarding.

Any suggestions?

Thanks
Howard

I think you can even leave it at Freeport.

Thanks for the quick replies!

I decided to go with Peterbilt because someone watches the cars 24/7 in an enclosed area. The cost is 7$ a day.

Freeport is decent too however it is not in an enclosed area and only camera is the theft deterrent.

Ciao

Since my post attracted only local Montreal locals like myself I am taking the liberty to invite you guys to give a new 997 owner some tips and share some stories with me about service, maintenance and care care.....

If I can be of service and because I love car detailing I built a car detailing garage in an apt building I own in Cote Des Neiges....

Would be happy to let you guys use this space for free to make your cars shine ! Tons of space , great lighting and all the equipment to get the job done!

Again thx for the advise and hope to hook up with you guys one day!

If I remember correctly the food at the lunch counter at the peterbuilt place was tasty and there were lots of tasty cars parked in their secure lot. Enjoy your new toy!!
