Don't Wait — Live border wait times

Don't Wait is a free, mobile-first tool that shows live border crossing wait times for every land port of entry between the United States, Canada, and Mexico. Wait times come straight from U.S. Customs and Border Protection and the Canada Border Services Agency — we check the feeds every five minutes (CBP and CBSA post new numbers roughly hourly), cache on the edge, and serve you a fast, clean, fast view from your phone or laptop. Lane-by-lane breakdowns (Standard, NEXUS, SENTRI, Ready Lane, FAST), historical congestion charts, live border cameras, and best/worst-time analysis are all included. No account is needed to browse; a free account saves favorites and turns on the app's alerts.

Pick your direction and crossing below, or browse by border or state. New here? The guides cover trusted-traveler programs (NEXUS, SENTRI, Global Entry), required documents, and tips for first-time crossers.
