Used vans in Montreal typically sell for C$2,850 to C$17,000 (about $2,000 to $12,100). Vans are bought as working assets, so buyers price on mechanical condition and load capacity rather than cosmetics.
Selling a van in Montreal
Montreal has the most distinctive moving culture in the country: a very large share of leases end on the same day at the start of July, and for about a week the entire city changes address at once. The second-hand market is built around that single date.
The outdoor staircases that front so many buildings here are narrow, steep and often spiral, and they defeat more furniture than anything else. Establish the stairs before the price, and remember that winter makes all of it considerably harder.
Measure the outdoor staircase, not just the doorway. The spiral and half-turn stairs on many buildings here defeat sofas and mattresses that would fit anywhere else, and the seller may never have taken it out that way.
Montreal, in Quebec, has around 1.8 million people, which means a deep enough buyer pool that most things sell without having to travel far to hand them over. Quebec City, Laval and Gatineau are close enough that a buyer there may well make the trip for the right thing.
Handing it over in Montreal
Canada Post, Purolator and UPS cover the country, but rates change sharply between provinces and remote postcodes carry surcharges.

- The service book, MOT paperwork, and every dent, scuff, rust patch or repair
Put in the description

- Ownership status, previous keepers, and whether any finance is outstanding
Steady year round with a lift in early spring as trades gear up. Well-documented vans with a long MOT and full history sell within a week; high-mileage vans without records take much longer.

Can I take it for a test drive?
