CR Movers Inc
Long distance
Movers from Toronto to Vancouver, on our own trucks with our own drivers. The move starts in Toronto or any GTA city we serve, and the price is agreed with you before you book.
Toronto to Vancouver
Your things are loaded at your door in the GTA and unloaded at your new address in Vancouver, about 4,400 km and five provinces later. The price and your delivery window are set in the quote, before you book.
Highway 17 across Northern Ontario, Highway 1 over the Prairies to Calgary, then the Kicking Horse and Rogers passes, Kamloops and the coast. Ontario alone is about 1,950 km of it.
How much is moving, the stairs or elevators at both addresses, the dates, and packing or storage if you want them. All of it is agreed in the quote, before you book.
The crew can pack, with boxes that are rented, not sold. What is not worth the trip can leave with our own junk removal crew first, and storage runs through our partner Key Storage if your dates do not line up.
A first number
For a first number we need the two postal codes and photos of what is moving. Add the floor, the stairs or elevator at each address and your dates. WhatsApp is the fastest way, and the sales office answers seven days a week.
Three things to know before you pick your dates. The mountains can close: at Rogers Pass the Trans-Canada climbs to 1,330 metres past 135 avalanche paths, and Parks Canada closes it for avalanche control for 2 to 8 hours or longer. British Columbia stopped changing its clocks in March 2026, so Vancouver is two hours behind Toronto in winter and three in summer. And OHIP covers you until the last day of the second full month after you leave Ontario.
Straight answers. The service itself is on our long distance moves page, and the blog has a guide to moving from Ontario to Alberta or B.C. For anything else, call or message during sales hours.

About 4,400 km by the Trans-Canada, all of it in Canada. A route planner often draws a quicker line through the United States, but a truck of household goods on that road crosses the border twice and travels as a customs in-transit shipment. Ask us which road your move takes.
It depends on how much is moving and on the two addresses, so no figure printed here would be yours. Stairs, elevators, dates, packing and storage count too. The price is agreed with you before you book: send the two postal codes and photos for a first number.
Longer than the drive. The road alone is 45 to 50 hours at the wheel, and federal hours of service rules limit how long a commercial driver may drive in a day. We do not print a number of days here: your delivery window is set in the quote, before you book.
As soon as you have a date range: summer and month ends fill up first. If your closing or lease date in Vancouver is fixed, give us that date. If it can move, give us the range and we tell you what is free. Our peak season note has more.
The rules change at the British Columbia border. B.C. requires winter tires or chains on most of its highways from October 1 to April 30, and commercial trucks must carry chains or other approved traction devices outside Greater Vancouver and Greater Victoria. If you drive your own car out, it needs M+S or mountain and snowflake tires.
90 days for the licence, 30 days for the car. ICBC gives new residents 90 days to switch to a B.C. driver's licence and 30 days to register and insure a vehicle. A car from Ontario must first pass an inspection at a B.C. designated inspection facility.
After a wait period: the rest of the month you arrive, plus two months. Every B.C. resident must enrol in the Medical Services Plan, and Ontario's plan covers you only for a set time after you leave. Work out both dates before you choose your arrival day.
Yes to the packing: the crew packs and wraps, the boxes are rented, not sold, and we unpack in Vancouver if you want. If the new address is not ready, storage runs through our partner Key Storage, who set the storage terms. Ask us where the load would wait before you book. More on the storage page.
Move less. How much goes on the truck is part of what sets the price, so sell or donate what is not worth 4,400 km of road, and let our own crew haul away the rest: junk removal can be done before the truck is loaded.
