Anyone know an equivalent to Harbor Freight in Canada?

there's just no equal to the price harbor freight has on their trailers!

Good deal if they have them in stock .... If you have to pay shipping ( 1/3 the price of the trailer ), Then it’s Not so good ... :roll:
There’s no place like Foam !

Maybe Northern Tool? Do you have anything like maybe Homier Distributing? Both of those are similar type stores that sell cheap Chinese crap.

My TD is being built on a Carry-On trailer. US made and reasonably priced. Carry-On owns PJ Trailers and here is a phone # for information on dealers in Canada.

PJ Trailers does not sell directly to the public.

For Dealers in Canada, please call 866-822-9662 or 204-822-9662

Try Princess Auto. It is the equivalent and they have stuff you cannot find anywhere else. :thumbsup: I believe they are in every province but Quebec.
Fun place to browse.

Princess Auto is far superior to Harbor Freight or Northern Tool in almost every respect and they should have what you're looking for.

I think you are missing the point of Harbor Freight. Cheap semi-disposable Chinese tools that will hopefully last long enough for you to finish your project. Just about any place is superior to stuff at HF.

heh heh heh Princess Auto that name still cracks me up.

Princess Auto started out in 1933 on Princess Street in Winnipeg Manitoba. They were originally an auto wrecking ( scrap yard ) company, hence the name Princess. It is my first go to place if I need some tools or trailer parts. :thumbsup:
