Private Car Transport Across Canada
Need your own car moved anywhere in Canada? Get a written quote for your exact route.
C2C Transport moves single vehicles for private owners as well as dealerships. Common private moves include a car bought through a private sale, a vehicle that needs to follow you on a move within Canada, or a car going to or from a body shop, storage or a family member. Routes and dates are subject to dispatch confirmation — tell us where the vehicle is, where it needs to go and when, and we will confirm what is possible before you book.
What you get with C2C
Written quote for your route
The price is quoted for your specific pickup, drop-off and vehicle, with what is included spelled out before you confirm.
Condition recorded at pickup
The driver photographs the vehicle at pickup and delivery so its condition is documented on both ends.
Signed Bill of Lading
Delivery is signed off on a Bill of Lading — the record of what was picked up and what was delivered.
A real dispatch contact
Questions go to the C2C team in Langley at 604-344-1040, not a call centre.
How private car transport works
1. Request a quote
Share the vehicle, pickup and drop-off addresses, preferred dates and whether the vehicle runs.
2. Confirm in writing
Dispatch confirms the route, pickup window and total price. Nothing is booked until you agree.
3. Pickup & inspection
The driver checks the vehicle with you, records its condition and loads it.
4. Delivery & sign-off
Inspect the vehicle on arrival, note anything on the Bill of Lading, and sign.
What we need at pickup
- An authorised contact at pickup and delivery, or hand-off instructions agreed with dispatch
- Keys for the vehicle, plus any fob or wheel-lock key.
- Clear, legal access for a transport truck — tell us about narrow streets, steep driveways, low parkades or strata rules in advance.
- Personal items removed — carrier insurance generally does not cover personal belongings left in the car.
- If the vehicle does not run, say so when quoting; it needs different equipment.
What affects your written quote
- Distance and route, including any BC Ferries crossing or mountain pass.
- Vehicle size, ground clearance and whether it runs.
- Open or enclosed transport.
- How flexible your pickup and delivery dates are.
- Access at either end (parkades, gated sites, rural roads).
Documents to have ready
- Proof that you own the vehicle or are authorised to move it (for example the bill of sale for a private purchase).
- Pickup and delivery contact names and phone numbers.
- Any gate codes, storage-facility release or shop authorisation needed to release the vehicle.

Private Car Transport FAQ
Answers to common questions about private car transport across Canada. Routes, equipment, timing and price require dispatch's written confirmation.
Yes. Private owners can request a quote online or by phone. We confirm the route, dates and price in writing before booking.
Someone needs to hand over the keys and check the vehicle at both ends. If that can't be you, tell dispatch who will be there.
C2C carries commercial insurance for vehicles it transports. Limits and exclusions depend on the policy, so ask dispatch for the certificate of insurance before your move, especially for a high-value vehicle.
Often yes, but it needs suitable equipment. Mention it in your quote request so we can confirm.
