Local guide

Car shipping in Toronto: pickup, highways and rail

Pickup and delivery in Toronto

Downtown streets, condo towers and streetcar lines make door-to-door pickup with a full carrier difficult in the old city. Most carriers meet customers on a wide street or a big parking lot near the 401, 427 or Don Valley Parkway, or at a yard in Brampton, Mississauga or Vaughan. Scarborough, Etobicoke and North York are easier than downtown, and a short flatbed leg can bridge the gap if you need true door-to-door service.

Highways car carriers use

Carriers come in and out of Toronto on Highway 401, the QEW, Highways 400, 427 and 404. A pickup or delivery point a few minutes from one of these saves the driver a detour and can save you money.

Shipping a car by train from Toronto

The nearest rail terminal is Vaughan (Toronto area, CPKC), about 22 km by road. Rail from Toronto means driving the car there yourself or paying for a truck to take it, so it pays off mainly on long cross-country moves.

For coast-to-coast rail service, the nearest terminal on the national car shipping network is Brampton (Toronto area), about 41 km away.

Cross-border shipping from Toronto

The closest U.S. crossing is Peace Bridge / Queenston–Lewiston Bridge to Buffalo, New York, roughly 100 km away. Carriers file the export and import paperwork differently, so ask who handles the U.S. Customs 72-hour export notice and the Registrar of Imported Vehicles (RIV) before you book.
