Ontario Auto Insurance
Ontario requires $200,000 minimum liability and proof of insurance before plating. McMaster University adds a September registration spike, and Hamilton's mix of lower-city and mountain neighbourhoods means rates can vary by area.
Escarpment City Driving
Hamilton is split between the lower city and the mountain. If you live on the escarpment, your daily driving involves steep access roads. Winter conditions make these roads icy. Winter tires and confident hill driving are essential.
McMaster Student Moves
McMaster University brings students from across Canada each September. If shipping a car for school, book early. Campus parking is limited and permit-controlled.
