This route draws a wide range of customers — families relocating from Montreal to the suburbs north of Toronto, dealerships moving pre-owned or new inventory between Quebec and Ontario markets, corporate employees on transfer, and private buyers completing online vehicle purchases who need their car delivered without the drive. Interlane handles every aspect of the shipment end-to-end, from coordinating pickup in Montreal to final delivery in Markham.
The Montreal to Markham corridor covers roughly 550 kilometres through the heart of the Quebec-Ontario corridor, one of the most active vehicle transport routes in the country. Departing Montreal, carriers follow Highway 401 west — the busiest highway in North America — through the Ontario border crossing near the Ontario-Quebec boundary, past Kingston, through the greater Oshawa region, and into the York Region suburban grid where Markham sits. The terrain is relatively flat through most of eastern Ontario, but winter conditions along this stretch are serious: freezing rain near Kingston, heavy snow squalls between Belleville and Oshawa, and congestion through the 400-series interchange system approaching the GTA demand experienced drivers and well-maintained equipment. All shipments travel under full insurance coverage, and pricing is transparent from the moment you book.

How much does it cost to ship a car from Montreal to Markham?
The cost of shipping a vehicle from Montreal to Markham typically ranges from $660 to $1,631 CAD depending on the transport type, vehicle size, and time of year. Open transport is the more affordable option, while enclosed shipping for luxury or classic vehicles carries a higher rate. Winter shipping — particularly during heavy snowfall months along the 401 — can affect pricing due to increased operational demands on this corridor.
How long does it take to ship a car from Montreal to Markham?
Transit time for a vehicle moving from Montreal to Markham is approximately 5 business days under standard conditions. The 401 corridor is a high-frequency route, which supports efficient scheduling, but winter weather between Kingston and the GTA approach can occasionally extend timelines. Your Interlane coordinator will give you a realistic delivery window at the time of booking based on current route conditions.
Is my vehicle insured during transport?
Yes — your vehicle is covered by Interlane's cargo insurance from the moment it is loaded in Montreal to the moment it is delivered in Markham. A condition report is completed at pickup to document your vehicle's pre-transport state, and you will have the opportunity to inspect the vehicle again upon delivery. Any transport-related damage is handled through our claims process directly.
Can I leave personal belongings in my car during shipping?
Interlane strongly recommends removing all personal belongings from your vehicle before it is picked up in Montreal. Personal items are not covered under cargo insurance, can shift during transit along the highway causing interior damage, and may create weight compliance concerns depending on the shipment configuration. Keep the vehicle clear of valuables, loose items, and aftermarket accessories that are not secured to the vehicle.
Is enclosed transport available for this route?
Yes, enclosed transport is available for all shipments from Montreal to Markham and is strongly recommended for luxury vehicles, electric vehicles, antique cars, and any vehicle you want fully protected from road salt, winter precipitation, and highway debris along the 401 corridor. If you're shipping a high-value or irreplaceable vehicle, enclosed transport provides the highest level of protection Interlane offers on this route.
