What is SUV Shipping?

SUV shipping is a professional vehicle transport service designed to move compact SUVs, crossovers, full-size trucks, and large SUVs safely across Canada or between Canada and the US, without putting extra kilometres on your vehicle or extra strain on your schedule.

Whether you are relocating to another province, buying an SUV out of market, moving seasonally, or sending a family vehicle ahead of a long-distance move, SUV transportation is often more practical than driving. SUVs are among the most commonly transported vehicles in Canada, and our carriers are well-equipped to handle everything from a compact crossover to a three-row full-size.

Most SUVs, including popular models like the Toyota RAV4, Ford Explorer, and Honda CR-V, ship safely and routinely on open carriers. If you are looking to ship your SUV and it falls into the luxury or high-value category, such as a Range Rover, Escalade, or G-Wagon, enclosed transport is worth considering for the added protection.

Frequently Asked
Questions (FAQ)

How much does it cost to ship an SUV in Canada?

SUV shipping costs depend on the size of your vehicle, the distance, the route, and the time of year. Compact SUVs and crossovers are generally priced similarly to standard cars, since they fit within the same size and weight thresholds on most carriers. Larger SUVs, such as full-size three-row models or extended-wheelbase vehicles, can cost more due to the additional space they occupy on the carrier. For an accurate figure, use our live quote tool, which factors in your specific vehicle and route.

How long does it take to ship an SUV across Canada?

Transit times vary depending on your route and the time of year. Shorter provincial routes can take a few days, while a coast-to-coast move such as Toronto to Vancouver typically takes between five and ten business days under normal conditions. Winter weather, mountain pass conditions, and peak demand periods such as the summer moving season can all affect delivery windows. Your booking confirmation will include an estimated delivery window based on your specific route.

Does shipping a larger SUV cost more than a compact SUV?

It can. Compact SUVs and crossovers are typically priced at the same rate as a standard car, as they fit within the standard size thresholds most carriers use. Full-size and three-row SUVs take up more space on a transport carrier, which can push the price higher. When you get a quote, enter your exact make and model so the rate reflects your vehicle accurately.

Can you ship a full-size SUV or extended-wheelbase vehicle?

Yes. We handle all sizes of SUVs, including full-size models and extended-wheelbase configurations. Provide the exact make, model, and year when booking so we can confirm the appropriate carrier and loading setup for your vehicle.

Do I need to do anything to prepare my SUV before pickup?

Remove personal belongings from the interior, ensure the gas tank is roughly a quarter full, retract any roof-mounted accessories or racks if possible, and take photos of the vehicle before pickup to document its condition.

Is my SUV insured during transport?

All shipments include standard carrier liability coverage. If your SUV has a higher declared value, review the coverage details with our team at the time of booking to ensure you have the right level of protection.
