The biggest factor here is access. In-town door-to-door shipping is straightforward, but vehicles heading to a work camp or industrial site usually can't reach it directly since 75-foot carriers can't drive on gravel lease roads.

Alberta Out-of-Province Inspection
Alberta requires a $200,000 liability minimum, with an Out-of-Province inspection for new vehicles. Fort McMurray's transient oil sands workforce means brokers here are experienced with short-term policies and frequent address changes.
Storing Your Vehicle During Rotations
Many oil sands workers rotate in and out on schedules of two weeks on and one week off, or similar. If you fly home during your off rotation and leave your car in Fort McMurray, consider vehicle storage at a secure facility rather than leaving it at a camp parking lot exposed to the elements.
Winterizing Before the Cold Hits
Fort McMurray winters regularly hit minus 35 and colder. If your shipped vehicle arrives from a milder province, install a block heater, switch to synthetic oil, and check that your coolant is rated for extreme cold. A dead battery at minus 40 is more than an inconvenience in a remote area.
