Moving to Vancouver: What You Need to Know
Vancouver is Canada's gateway to the Pacific and the country's third-largest city, renowned for its stunning mountain and ocean backdrop, mild climate, and world-class outdoor lifestyle. The city draws professionals in tech, film, and natural resources. Popular neighbourhoods for Montreal transplants include Mount Pleasant, Commercial Drive ('The Drive'), Kitsilano, and the more affordable areas of East Vancouver and Burnaby. North Vancouver and Coquitlam offer family-friendly options with more space.
The Montreal–Vancouver route is PMG's longest domestic move at roughly 4,700 km, transiting through Ontario, Manitoba, Saskatchewan, and Alberta before arriving in BC. The journey takes 5–8 business days by truck. PMG uses dedicated long-haul trucks for this route and provides real-time GPS tracking so you can monitor your shipment's progress across Canada. For smaller moves, we offer a consolidated shipment option to reduce costs.
BC moving practicalities: British Columbia has a 5% GST plus a 7% PST (no HST), totalling 12% on most goods and services. You must transfer your Quebec driver's licence to a BC licence within 90 days. ICBC (the provincial insurer) handles vehicle insurance — be prepared for a potentially significant difference in premiums. Vancouver's condo buildings require COI with $2M liability coverage for most moves.
