Car Shipping Ontario
Shiply can help you find auto transport quotes from Toronto, Ottawa, Hamilton, Windsor, London, Mississauga, Markham and Thunder Bay, as well as anywhere in between. Simply enter the details of your move to receive quotes from rated car haulers across Ontario.
How does it work?
Once the details of your vehicle delivery have been entered into the site you will receive transport quotes from trucking companies. We cover the whole of Canada so you will receive quotes from local haulers, as well as national companies.
How do I choose?
One you’ve received a couple of quotes (usually within a few hours) it's time to make a decision. Companies will generally send you details of their service such as insurance coverage, transportation method and delivery time, and are welcome to ask any questions you need.
The details of delivery may vary on where you are located, and how far you are transporting your vehicle.
Short haul transport: If you are moving within the Greater Toronto Area or a short distance such as Toronto to Ottawa, you may want to enlist a local carrier using a flat deck or single car trailer. This way, you can expect a decent price and a fast delivery time from door to door.
Long haul transport: eg. Shipping a car from Toronto to Vancouver. For this distance, the most common method is by multi-car carrier. These can carry up to 10 cars, meaning you can get a much better rate. A delivery of this distance could take up to 10 days, from the date of collection. Due to the size of the carriers, it is much more likely that your move will be terminal to terminal, meaning you will have to collect and drop off your vehicle at a secure location.
Rail transport is also an option for transport within, or outside, Ontario. This method can take a little longer but does offer great prices.
Enclosed shipping can also be used for both long and short haul moves. This method keeps your vehicle protected from weather and rocks/dirt, however, it can be more costly.
Finishing the move
Once you have accepted a quote, you will receive the contact details for your chosen company, you can then arrange origin and destination locations, and dates. If you choose a terminal to terminal quote, you will have to drop your vehicle off, if not, just sit back and relax!
Once the move is completed, don’t forget to leave feedback for your chosen company as this will help others in making their decision.

Who Will Carry Out My Delivery?
Whoever you choose! There are thousands of rated transport providers on our platform ready to make a bid to carry out your delivery. It is up to you to decide which quote to accept.
When Will I Receive A Quote?
You will typically start to receive quotes within 30 minutes. If you are worried about the lack of quotes, try adding some more detail to your listing as transport providers may be unsure of dimensions or weight and feel unable to provide an accurate quote. If your delivery is urgent, you can try our 'featured delivery' feature which moves your listing to the top of the search page for couriers.
How Many Quotes Will I Receive?
Whilst there is no guarantee of quotes, 98% of our listings receive at least 3 quotes, so you are likely to find someone who can undertake the delivery of your items.
Does Shiply Provide Packing Materials?
If your item requires packing materials or extra care then you should make sure this is highlighted in your listing and discussed with any transport provider whose quote you are considering. Couriers on Shiply are able to provide all levels of service and can help pack your items, just ensure you inform them of your needs.
Will My Goods Be Tied Up Securely?
Transport providers will almost always tie up an item in the transport vehicle, as the risk of damage from moving around during transit is high. You should always confirm safety precautions and packing needs with transport providers before accepting a quote.
Can Items Be Taken Upstairs?
Yes, items can be taken upstairs if needed, and can also be assembled. Transport providers on Shiply are happy to provide these services, but you should ensure that you are mentioning these requirements in your listings as it may mean a second person is required for the move.
Can I Travel With My Goods?
The majority of transport providers on Shiply are only insured for the transportation of goods, however, some are also able to take people. If you need to travel with your goods, make sure to mention this in your listing and to highlight this to any courier who quotes on your listing.
What If I Need To Cancel My Booking?
If you have accepted a quote and paid the deposit but wish to cancel the delivery, then you should first inform your chosen transport provider that you no longer require the delivery. You should then contact us at to have your deposit refunded.
Can I Change The Address Of The Delivery?
If you have not yet accepted a quote then you are able to change the address of your listing. Note that editing details of your listing after publishing will result in active quotes being voided, so you will have to wait for new quotes to come in. If you have already accepted a quote and need to change the address, please let your transport provider know and contact us at .
Does Someone Have To Be Present For Pickup And Delivery?
In most cases, the car delivery company will require you to be in attendance for the pickup and delivery of the vehicle. This is because there are likely to be release forms that you need to sign, as well as handing over the keys for the car.
Can I Keep Items In My Vehicle?
Most car delivery companies will be fine with you keeping some personal items in the vehicle when it is transported. However, there are two important things to remember: 1. The weight of the items may affect the price of the vehicle delivery, and 2. Any items in the vehicle will not be covered by insurance for the transport of the car itself.
Can I Transport My Vehicle If It Isn't Running?
You can transport your vehicle if it isn’t in running condition, however, this will be more expensive as specialist equipment is required to load and unload the vehicle.

Recent Testimonials
Debra W.
"Communication was great from the time I accepted the quote until the car was dropped off. In terms of the timeline, I was given a potential range for both how soon the car would be picked up and how many days it would be in transport."
Patrick G.
"Everything was perfect! Fast, easy and hassle-free process! I definitely recommend and would use them again in the future. Thank you so much!"
Sophie G.
"Great experience using these guys. This was my first time having to transport a car using a service like this and I could not be happier. Picked up earlier than expected and delivery was early as well. Quick easy and problem free."
