I am shipping my car from my current state to Detroit and then will drive to Windsor. I saw one post earlier but now unable to find the experience of exporting the car from Ambassador bridge (I think that is the bridge I will be crossing if I drive from Detroit to Windsor) . Can somebody please share that link ?

This is the coordinates you should enter to go to customs for exporting your car from US side. dont take right which will go to toll booth for going to canada.
I forgot that link as its an old post and one member even posted one video link too but cant find my post(or its very old to search from the junk).

In any direction you come from or in any highway/road you take, you can try to use this coordinates to enter. When reaching this point, remember that there would be a gate. So just slowdown and stop before the gate and wait for gate to open or an officer to attend you. Dont get down. Just be in the car and after gate is opened then you can go inside.

@harirajmohan - Sir I recently posted on a facebook group ( Indians in Windsor ) that if somebody has recent experience driving from Detroit to Windsor. The reply I got was that they might stop me on border because they are only allowing essential travel. As I am looking to move permanently do you think they can still stop me? Wondering if you have come across any post regarding this.

Per landing experience, they are allowing to land. But it depends on officer as some might go by the books.

Permanent move: No issues which you know. But are you taking the goods with you when you are moving?
