Default Emigrating to Canada spouse working in USA for 4 hours a day.

Hi
Is it possible to live Canada and for me (the spouse) to have a warehouse or lockup in the USA and travel backwards and forwards to America every day to pack and send out orders to the US?

We currently have a company in the UK and use a fulfilment centre in the US, we send over a spreadsheet every day and they pick and pack the orders for us.

I would need to cross the border daily to pack the orders and wait for the UPS guy to pick them up. And then travel back to Canada possibly with a couple of items every day if we had Canadian orders as well.
Is this allowed/legal?
Many Thanks
Pete

Not without permission to work in the US. Why not just mail the items from a Canadian warehouse?

Hi Thanks for the reply
I would have thought UPS would charge the customer $25 per item shipped into the US i know they do if we ship from USA to Canada but i will look into that
Thanks
Pete

Or employ an American to do it.
