Why do Snowbirds Choose California?

California is a top destination for Canadian snowbirds, especially for residents in the western provinces of B.C., Alberta, Saskatchewan and Manitoba. The Golden State offers a perfect blend of beautiful weather, stunning landscapes, and numerous attractions. With its mild winters and abundant sunshine, California's climate is ideal for those looking to escape the cold. The state boasts a variety of activities, from golfing to exploring the cultural and recreational opportunities throughout the Coachella Valley in Indio, Rancho Mirage or Indian Wells. The diverse attractions and welcoming community make California a preferred winter retreat for many Canadians.

Benefits of Shipping Your Vehicle to California

Auto transport from Canada to California offers numerous advantages, especially for snowbirds:

  • Time and convenience: Avoid the long, tiring drive across multiple states. Instead, fly comfortably to California and have your vehicle delivered to you.
  • Reduced wear and tear: Long-distance driving can damage your vehicle. Shipping your car preserves its condition and prevents potential maintenance issues.
  • Safety: Driving through unfamiliar terrains and weather conditions can be risky. Shipping your vehicle eliminates these hazards, ensuring you and your car arrive safely.

We shipped our car from Toronto to Vancouver right from the first phone call. The staff members were friendly and professional. They explained the options and followed up with an email. The driver who picked up our car in Toronto arrived on time and was thorough. In Vancouver, Joseph had the car ready for pickup and was a pleasure to deal with. Highly recommended!
