From Montreal, the truck crosses the river through the Louis-Hippolyte-La Fontaine tunnel and follows Highway 20 to Mont-Joli, then Route 132 through the Matapédia Valley. It enters New Brunswick at Campbellton and follows Chaleur Bay on Route 11 to Bathurst. The trip is about 830 km.
This route is part of our long-distance moves: your furniture is protected with blankets and strapped in the truck, and both loading and delivery follow a schedule agreed in advance.
Whether you are leaving a Rosemont apartment, a West Island house or a downtown tower, we plan the crew according to your volume. For a local move, see our Moving Montreal page.
On the narrow streets of Montreal’s central neighbourhoods, plan space for the truck several days before the move: a permit may be needed depending on the borough. In a tower, book the service elevator and loading dock with management.
Bathurst, on Chaleur Bay, is the gateway to the Acadian Peninsula. Its population is split between French and English speakers, and the city is known for Youghall Beach, its trails and the Nepisiguit River.
This route is not one of our published packages: we organize it like our other long-distance moves, with a price set by free quote. The Matapédia Valley crossing is on a two-lane road, so delivery is planned over two days.
From Montreal, the truck reaches Highway 20 through the Louis-Hippolyte-La Fontaine tunnel and follows it through Lévis, Rivière-du-Loup and Rimouski to Mont-Joli. Route 132 then crosses the Matapédia Valley through Amqui to Matapédia; in New Brunswick, Route 11 runs through Campbellton and Dalhousie and follows Chaleur Bay to Bathurst. The route stays entirely in Canada.
Allow about 9 hours 15 minutes of driving, not counting breaks: the trip is done over two days. New Brunswick is on Atlantic time, one hour ahead of Quebec. The date and arrival window are agreed with you when you get your quote.
A move to northern New Brunswick is best prepared a few weeks ahead: a detailed inventory, boxes labelled by room and a list of valuables you carry yourself. Also plan to exchange your driver’s licence, register your vehicle and sign up for provincial health insurance.
Pack a suitcase for the two days on the road and your first days in Bathurst. Let us know if any furniture needs to be taken apart or better protected for a long trip.
When leaving Montreal, check with your borough: a permit may be required to reserve the space in front of your door, with a lead time of 24 hours to 5 business days.
In a building, book the service elevator and let the superintendent know the loading time; in a plex, tell us about outdoor staircases and narrow passages.
Bathurst mostly has single-family homes with driveways and small apartment buildings, often with an outdoor staircase. Several areas run along the bay and rivers, with streets that are sometimes sloped.
Tell us the floor, the type of staircase and where the truck can park. In winter, have the access cleared and check parking rules with the City of Bathurst.
