What it costs to ship a pallet from Montreal to Toronto

Most single-pallet shipments on this lane fall in $140–$290. The price moves with weight, dimensions, pallet count, pickup and delivery type, and the fuel surcharge in effect. Residential delivery, tailgate and appointment windows add to the base rate. For a full breakdown of what drives LTL pricing, see LTL rates in Canada.

Two ways to bring the price down: ship on standard 48 × 40 inch pallets with accurate dimensions so nothing is re-measured at the terminal, and book a day ahead so the carrier can fit your pickup into an existing route.
