Why choose WillGo for your move from Montreal to the South Shore

Bridges and tunnels to cross to the South Shore

Crossing Montreal to the South Shore requires excellent control of bridges, tunnels and roads. At WillGo, we plan each trip according to the destination, time and traffic conditions in order to optimize time and reduce costs.

The Samuel de Champlain Bridge is the most modern and most used option. It allows quick access to Brossard and Saint-Lambert from downtown west, Verdun and western Montreal. Completely free, it is ideal for residential and commercial moves.

The Jacques-Cartier Bridge directly connects downtown Montreal to Old Longueuil. It is very convenient from Plateau-Mont-Royal and east of downtown, but can be congested at peak times. Scheduling time is therefore essential.

The Louis-Hippolyte-La Fontaine bridge-tunnel serves Boucherville, Longueuil and Varennes from east Montreal. Major works are currently causing significant delays. Sometimes we prefer alternative routes to avoid delays.

The Victoria Bridge is a lesser-known but often more fluid option. It offers efficient access to Saint-Lambert and certain areas of Longueuil, especially during off-peak hours.

Highways 10, 20 and 30 complete the network and allow you to quickly reach the entire South Shore depending on the target city.

Why move from Montreal to the South Shore?

The South Shore offers more space for your budget, with single-family homes, lots and garages at more affordable prices than in Montreal. Families appreciate reputable schools, parks, and safe neighborhoods.

Access to Montreal remains simple thanks to the bridges, the Longueuil metro and the future REM. The quality of life is improved by a quieter, greener environment and well-established communities. From Saint-Lambert to Brossard, each city offers a distinct lifestyle.

How to save on your move to the South Shore

Moving between September and May allows you to take advantage of the low season and lower rates. Avoiding the first of July and the end of the month reduces demand. Preparing your boxes in advance and sorting your goods decreases the volume transported.

Choosing the right bridge, moving during off-peak hours, and consolidating transport into one well-planned trip also help reduce overall costs.

Neighborhoods in Montreal from where we are moving to the South Shore

We move regularly from Plateau-Mont-Royal, known for its outdoor staircases and narrow streets. Rosemont, Hochelaga-Maisonneuve and Villeray present parking challenges that we master.

Verdun, LaSalle, and NDG offer quick access to the Champlain Bridge, while Griffintown and downtown require precise management of condominium regulations and elevators.
