From Montreal, the truck takes Highway 15 north, then Route 117 through Mont-Laurier and the La Vérendrye wildlife reserve to Val-d’Or, in Abitibi. The trip is about 525 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.
Val-d’Or grew out of gold mining in the 1930s and remains an important mining town in Abitibi-Témiscamingue. It is also the gateway to the region for those arriving from the south on Route 117.
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. There are few services across the La Vérendrye reserve, so the driving schedule is planned accordingly.
From Montreal, the truck takes Highway 15 north to Sainte-Agathe-des-Monts, then Route 117 through Mont-Tremblant and Mont-Laurier. The road then crosses the La Vérendrye wildlife reserve before reaching Val-d’Or.
Allow about 6 hours 15 minutes of driving, not counting breaks. Gas stations are scarce in the reserve and winter can slow traffic: depending on loading time, delivery happens the same day or the next, as agreed when you get your quote.
Make an inventory of your furniture and boxes, and tell us about heavy or fragile items. The move stays within Quebec: update your address with the SAAQ, the RAMQ and your service providers.
Pack a suitcase for the trip and your first days in Val-d’Or, and keep important documents and keys with you.
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.
Val-d’Or mostly has single-family homes and two- or three-storey apartment buildings; near downtown, around 3e Avenue, streets are narrower.
Tell us where the truck can park and whether there are stairs. Winter is long in Abitibi: have the driveway and sidewalk cleared, and check snow-removal parking rules with the City.
