Ontario Auto Insurance
Ontario requires proof of insurance before plating, with $200,000 minimum liability. A vehicle from another province needs a Safety Standards Certificate from a DriveON inspection. From July 1, 2026, only medical, rehabilitation and attendant care benefits are mandatory on new policies. Trent's intake and cottage traffic add seasonal registrations.
Trent Student Moves
If your car shipping is tied to Trent University's school year, book early for an August delivery, since campus parking fills up fast and requires a permit. Late August is the busiest week for student moves, so earlier bookings get more flexible dates.
Kawartha Gateway
Peterborough also serves as the gateway to cottage country, so your vehicle handles both everyday city driving and the occasional lakefront road trip. Summer weekends bring heavy cottage traffic on regional highways, and winter tires help on rural roads.
