About this route

Toronto to Victoria by car carrier

At roughly 4,398 km, Toronto to Victoria is a cross-country haul — about 50 hours of driving. With stops to load and unload other cars, plan on 7–10 days in transit once the car is picked up. The car heads west-northwest and crosses from Eastern to Pacific time, so confirm whether the delivery window you are given is in local time.

Moving from Ontario to British Columbia

About 19,364 people moved from Ontario to British Columbia in each of the last two years, according to Statistics Canada (20,096 in 2024/2025, 18,632 in 2025/2026). That is 22.3% of everyone who left Ontario for another province or territory, making British Columbia its #2 destination. See the Ontario to British Columbia guide →

On the road

  • Vancouver Island is reached by BC Ferries, usually Tsawwassen–Swartz Bay for Victoria or Horseshoe Bay–Departure Bay for Nanaimo. The fare and the wait for a sailing are part of the price, and the crossing can add about a day.
  • 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.
