Moving Montreal to Rivière-du-Loup

Long-distance move between Montreal and Rivière-du-Loup

Rivière-du-Loup, the gateway to the Lower St. Lawrence and Témiscouata, is about 430 km from Montreal. The truck leaves the island for the South Shore, then follows Highway 20 east through Drummondville, Lévis and Montmagny.

This route is not one of our published packages: we organize it like our other long-distance moves, with furniture protected for the road and a price set by free quote, based on your volume, access and date.

Whether you are leaving a Rosemont triplex, a Verdun apartment or a West Island house, we plan the crew and truck around your volume. For a move within the city, see our Moving Montreal page.

When leaving Montreal, plan the truck’s parking a few days ahead: depending on the borough and the street, a permit may be required, with lead times ranging from 24 hours to 5 business days. In an apartment building, also book the service elevator and let the superintendent know when loading starts.

Rivière-du-Loup sits at the junction of Highways 20 and 85, on the south shore of the river. Homes there are mostly houses and small apartment buildings: tell us the floor, the stairs and where the truck can park on arrival.

Make an inventory of your large furniture and the number of boxes, and flag fragile or heavy items. In Rivière-du-Loup, someone on site with the keys and a room plan lets our crew place everything directly.

The route from Montreal to Rivière-du-Loup

The truck crosses to the South Shore, then stays on Highway 20 for almost the whole trip: Saint-Hyacinthe, Drummondville, Lévis, then Montmagny and La Pocatière along the river to Rivière-du-Loup.

It is a highway drive with regular rest areas. Between Lévis and Rivière-du-Loup, wind off the river and blowing snow can slow traffic in winter; we follow road conditions and stay in touch with you until delivery.

Preparing your move from Montreal to Rivière-du-Loup

If your new address is in a neighbouring municipality, such as Cacouna, Saint-Antonin or Notre-Dame-du-Portage, give it precisely in your request: access and distance change the planning.

Sort before you go, then make a full inventory of every room. Group fragile items in labelled boxes and keep important documents and medication with you.

Leaving Montreal: access and parking

In central neighbourhoods, streets are often narrow, one-way or lined with bike lanes. Tell us where the truck can park and how far it is from your door: it changes the loading time.

Some boroughs require a public right-of-way permit to park a truck on the street. Check your borough’s rules ahead of time and, for a condo, book the service elevator for a long enough time slot.

Arriving in Rivière-du-Loup: access and parking

Downtown, around Rue Lafontaine, several older houses and buildings have outdoor stairs; near the Cégep de Rivière-du-Loup, upstairs units are common. Newer neighbourhoods mostly have houses with driveways.

Tell us where the truck can park and how far it is to the door. For street parking, check the rules with the City of Rivière-du-Loup, especially in winter.

How the price of a move to Rivière-du-Loup is set

This route is not one of our published packages: the price is set by quote, based on your move. It mainly depends on four things:

  • Volume: the number of rooms, pieces of furniture and boxes to load, which determines the truck and crew;
  • Access: floors, outdoor stairs, elevator and the distance between the truck and the door, at both ends;
  • Date: prices may vary during the peak period, in late June and early July;
  • Added services, such as packing, a piano or a pool table.

Contact us for a free, no-obligation quote: give us both addresses, your preferred date and a list of your furniture. You can also call us at 514-703-6147.
