Has anyone ever imported a vehicle at the Houlten, ME border? I am having the hardest time finding out information from them. My husband called to ask how to submit the 72 hour notice & they said our broker does it (which didn't make any sense), so I called again and spoke with someone else who said we can just call 72 hours in advance to let them know & we don't need to submit any documentation via fax or email. I am nervous because everything I read says we have to bring a copy of our 72 hour notice to the border. I also just finished submitting my RIV import form & when I printed off my receipt it said port of entry Edumunston, NB! When I had said Woodstock. I send them an online inquiry asking if it will be an issue but I am hoping I can still enter through Houlton/Woodstock. I will be glad when this is done! We are starting our move from Utah to Nova Scotia next weekend.

Long drive from Utah to NS. Can't you use one of more pouplar border crossings like one close to Niagara Falls or Champlain Border? You will get better services at these crossings.

Not really. It would be out of the way and I would rather take the US freeway than have to drive through Quebec.
