Landing without a car

[broiler]

Has anyone been successful in landing without a car and by coach instead?

I have no car (public trans ftw yeah) and none of my friends are willing to drive me down to the border. I live in Vancouver and need to get down to the border which is about an hours drive away. How can I get around that?

You could take bus/skytrain to white rock and walk across to complete your landing. I walked across from white rock myself in 2012.

CLICK FOR ROUTE Not sure why the link doesn't work. When google maps comes up, you have to remove the destination called @49.016... blah blah.
After that it should show you how to get to the border.

It's not that long of a walk You can easily walk the last part in 15mins.

You did? How come immigration services are not listed on the CBSA website?? Maybe call the CBSA office
at boundary bay and ask @@ broiler

My Roommate did his landing at Tawassan last weekend, I can confirm this. Take skytrain down to Richmond, bus from there to Tawassan, 10 minute walk to Border and boom done.

Guys,

Any idea how to do landing from Toronto without a car?

 

[mooer]

This is good to know. We will most probably do our landing at Tsawwassen.
