      Cross Border Customs Requirements

      Moving across the Canada-US border requires proper documentation to avoid delays and additional fees. High Stream Moving guides you through every step of the customs process.

      For moves to the USA, all household goods must be declared using CBP Form 3299 (Declaration for Free Entry of Unaccompanied Articles). This form allows your personal effects to enter duty-free when items were used for at least one year and are for personal use only.

      For moves to Canada, you'll need to complete the BSF186 form (Personal Effects Accounting Document). Canadian residents returning home and new immigrants may qualify for duty-free import of their belongings.

      Our cross border moving specialists prepare all necessary paperwork, coordinate with customs officials, and ensure your shipment clears the border without delays. We handle the complicated part — you just focus on your new home.

      Our customs documentation services include:

      • CBP Form 3299 preparation for USA-bound moves
      • BSF186 documentation for Canada-bound moves
      • Customs clearance coordination
      • Duty-free entry assistance
      • Prohibited items guidance

      Cross Border Moving Cost — Canada to USA & USA to Canada

      How much does it cost to move across the Canada-US border? Cross border moving rates depend on distance, volume of belongings, and services required.

      Average cross border moving costs:

      • Studio / 1 Bedroom: $2,500 – $5,000
      • 2 Bedroom: $4,000 – $8,000
      • 3 Bedroom: $6,000 – $12,000
      • 4-5 Bedroom: $10,000 – $18,000

      Factors affecting your cost include distance (Toronto to New York costs less than Toronto to California), volume of items, additional services like packing or vehicle shipping, and timing — off-peak season (October–April) typically offers lower rates.

      Unlike some competitors, High Stream Moving calculates cost by volume, not weight — often saving you money. We provide transparent, all-inclusive quotes with no hidden fees.

      Call (800) 430-1537 for an accurate estimate based on your specific move.

        Yes, we have our own secure storage facilities for various needs. For cross border moves 1 month of storage will be free of charge. This also applies to other long distance moves.

        The best time to book a date is 10-12 weeks prior to pre-departure. This will allow you to choose the date you want, rather than having to adjust to available seats. In addition, you will have time to organize all the necessary things during this period.

        The same timeline would be true for any international move.

        We will make a moving plan for you with the dates you need to be ready.

        Our movers can take care of packing all your belongings, including the selection of packing materials. This will free up 1 to 2 weeks of time for you depending on the volume of your belongings.

        We have prepared important articles to help you prepare your move with peace of mind:

        1. What Needs to Be Canceled When Moving

        4. List of Things You Need When Moving Out in Canada
        5. How to Prepare for Movers

        It is important to note that our movers do not transport pets. You will need to bring your pets on your own.

        However, here is some important information you should know:

        U.S. or Canadian citizens must present passports or alternate secure documents to move with pets. For domestic dogs and cats over three months of age, certificates must show that the animal has been vaccinated against rabies.

        Yes, we provide this service for both cross border moves and provinces to provinces moves. We have special trucks and trained movers for transportation of vehicles of any kind.
        We do cross-border moves from Canada to the US and from the US to Canada.

        The primary document is CBP Form 3299 (Declaration for Free Entry of Unaccompanied Articles). This allows your household goods to enter the US duty-free if items were used for at least one year and are for personal use. You'll also need valid ID, proof of immigration status, and a detailed inventory of items being shipped. Our team helps prepare all required paperwork.

        Transit time depends on distance. Toronto to New York typically takes 2–4 days, while Toronto to California may take 7–14 days. Customs clearance usually adds 1–2 days. We provide guaranteed delivery windows so you can plan your arrival accordingly.
