Our scheduled eastern runs from Toronto handle New Brunswick, Nova Scotia, PEI, and Newfoundland. Groups of orders travel together to keep freight affordable; transit is 2 to 8 days depending on destination.
We don't run dedicated trucks to the Atlantic provinces on a weekly schedule — the freight volumes don't justify it, and you'd be paying a premium for empty capacity. Instead, we group orders on a rolling 2–3 week cycle. As soon as we have enough volume (typically 3–4 orders) for a routable run, we dispatch.
This means your Atlantic delivery has an estimated ship date (confirmed at order) rather than a promise of a specific week. We communicate the actual dispatch date as soon as it's locked, typically 5–10 days before the truck leaves Toronto.
| Destination | Distance from Toronto | Typical transit |
|---|---|---|
| Montreal, QC | 540 km | 1 day |
| Quebec City, QC | 800 km | 1.5 days |
| Fredericton, NB | 1,306 km | 2 days |
| Moncton, NB | 1,386 km | 2 days |
| Halifax, NS | 1,792 km | 2.5–3 days |
| Charlottetown, PEI | 1,457 km | 3 days (Confederation Bridge) |
| St. John's, NL | 3,066 km | 5–8 days (ferry from North Sydney) |
Our 53' trailers are pre-approved for the Confederation Bridge. No special scheduling — the driver pays the standard commercial-vehicle toll (~$75 round trip for the loaded leg) and crosses at any time. Weather closures affect the bridge occasionally in winter; we plan a 24-hour buffer for PEI deliveries between November and March.
Newfoundland deliveries use the Marine Atlantic ferry from North Sydney, NS, to either Port aux Basques or Argentia depending on your destination. Port aux Basques runs daily year-round. Argentia runs seasonally (mid-June to late September) and serves the Avalon Peninsula directly, which is faster if you're near St. John's.
Ferry booking is done on your behalf — you pay the ferry cost at the all-in delivered price. Typical commercial-vehicle fare for a 53' trailer is $2,400–$3,800 one way depending on season. We absorb the ferry cost on orders over $15,000 as part of our standard pricing model.
All Atlantic-destined buildings ship with coastal-spec engineering as standard: G90 hot-dip galvanized frames, UV-stabilized 750g PVC, reinforced anchor spec for high-wind events. For sites within 300 m of direct salt spray we recommend the stainless hardware upgrade ($340 on 40x80, $520 on 50x100+).
See the Quebec & Atlantic region page for more context and the Ontario region page for the first leg of these runs.
Because a dedicated Toronto-to-Halifax truck for one order would cost you $8,000–$10,000 in freight alone. By grouping 3–4 orders on a single run, we cut that to $1,800–$2,400 per order. If you need dedicated delivery on a specific date, we'll quote it — typical premium is $4,000–$6,000 over the grouped rate.
Our driver pays the commercial-vehicle toll at the bridge (about $75 round-trip for the loaded leg) and drives straight across. The bridge has no special scheduling for commercial trailers. In winter, weather closures occasionally happen — we plan a 24-hour buffer for PEI December-through-March deliveries.
Labrador City and Wabush are reachable via Quebec Route 389 from Baie-Comeau. It's a 9-hour drive from Baie-Comeau on mostly unpaved road. We've quoted Labrador City and can deliver — transit adds about 3 days to the Halifax-area timing. The Labrador Coast north of Goose Bay is sealift-only; we'd coordinate that via the Nunavut-style process.
Typical 5–8 weeks from order to on-site. Breakdown: kit manufacturing and Toronto arrival (3–5 weeks), eastern run scheduling (1–2 weeks), Marine Atlantic ferry booking and crossing (1 week buffer), final delivery to your site. Winter adds 1–2 weeks for weather.
