About this route
Who moves from British Columbia to New Brunswick
About 926 people moved from British Columbia to New Brunswick in each of the last two years, according to Statistics Canada (1,067 in 2024/2025, 785 in 2025/2026). That is 2% of everyone who left British Columbia for another province or territory.
Traffic runs both ways — about 876 people a year move from New Brunswick back to British Columbia — so carriers run this lane year-round and quotes tend to be steady.
Moves on this lane peak in April–June, when 33% of the year's movers make the trip; October–December is the quietest quarter (21%).
Distance and transit time
Vancouver to Moncton runs about 5,861 km on the road (66 hours behind the wheel). Car carriers stop for other vehicles on the load, so count on 8–12 days on the truck. The car heads east-northeast and crosses from Pacific to Atlantic time, so confirm whether the delivery window you are given is in local time.
On the road
- The route crosses the Rocky Mountains. From October to March, snow on the mountain passes can hold trucks for a day, and British Columbia requires winter tires or chains on most of its highways.
- The only Canadian road between east and west runs north of Lake Superior (Highways 11 and 17 in Northern Ontario). Winter storms can close it for hours, which is one reason long hauls cost more in January and February.
