When is the border wait shortest at each crossing?

Border waits follow a weekly pattern. MileCheck has logged the wait at every U.S. land crossing every hour since July 24, 2026. Below is when each crossing is usually busiest and quietest, between 6 AM and 10 PM local time.

What this counts: waits to enter the United States in standard passenger lanes, as posted by U.S. Customs and Border Protection. "Usually" means the middle reading for that day and hour across the weeks logged. Holidays and events can be much worse. Check the live wait before you go.
