Are they still giving you grief at the border bringing lumber into Baja?
Last year they were looking for some kind of "fumigation certificate" is this still the case or is it back to normal?
Yes

Without a bribe they won't let you cross.DENNIS - 3-7-2009 at 12:46 PM
Lots of grief...ever since Home Depot bought a seat in the presidents cabinet, Department of price doubling and lousy inventory control. They want
you to buy locally.sourdough - 3-8-2009 at 03:55 PM
I plan to bring 20 port orford cedar 2" x 6" x 8' to Loreto next fall for double doors. Am I going to have a problem getting them here?
Only if they see 'em

Wrap them up and hide them under your other stuff. Then pray you get a green light.bajamigo - 3-8-2009 at 06:19 PM
A friend brings down 35 sheets of plywood evry couple of weeks. The stack doesn't show above the tailgate (the truck has a cap), and the Rancho
adjustables make it look as if the truck is empty. He hasn't gotten "revision" yet.DENNIS - 3-9-2009 at 08:27 AM

Probably not. If they stop you, just claim stupidity and grovel a little. Your load is a reasonable amount to transport across without creating an
international incident.
You might glue a ten dollar bill to one of the top boards. That'll be good for a laugh anyway.Terry28 - 3-9-2009 at 08:35 AM

I don't know, Terry. If you try to trick these guys, it just makes matters worse. They've seen it all.
