Excellent communication
I had to ship my car from Oakville to Halifax. Other companies were expensive and slow, then I found Automoves. Igor and Lynn were perfect to deal with, the cost was far less and it took only three days to get to Halifax.

NS Auto Insurance
Nova Scotia's private insurers require a passed safety inspection sticker at registration. Cape Breton's island geography and causeway connection mean some residents' policies reflect a longer commute to mainland services.
Island Living
Cape Breton is an island community. Your vehicle is essential for accessing the Cabot Trail, Sydney, and all local services. The mainland is hours away via the causeway.
Cape Breton Winter
Heavy snow, wind, and cold. The Cabot Trail closes sections in winter. Winter tires are essential for island driving.
