Posted by NORTHBOUND last March Hopefully by next year the transport will not be needed, but if it is, this is what we found,today. We were headed west from sept isle. Called from Baie Comeau last night. Called the guy in Pointe-aux-outardes, seemed most logistical. He owns the Petro Canada gas station in that town and has 2 rollback trucks. Nice guy named Thomas. We told him we would get into town at 9am. Trail goes right into town. He dropped us at a side road crossing at Columbier. But he is flexible. He could have picked us up in Baie Comeau or dropped us in Forestville. But he charges by the hour, so shorter is better. He charged us 135 plus tax. His rate is 100 per hour. All 3 of the guys on the poster are independent. Didn't check with the others. This guy seemed reasonable and was easy to work with.

iceman Posted December 16, 2022 Report Share Posted December 16, 2022 Well, blame China but the price is up like everything else. i just spoke with a Thomas in from garage in pointe aux Outardes charge this year is a 2 hr minimum....$280 plus tax this is for up to 4 sleds and 4 riders. Bigger groups he can arrange for with notice. Open deck truck. Extended cab so room for driver and 4 passengers. Best to call at least 24hrs in advance he said you can call same day but you may wait longer if trucks are busy on other jobs. Speaks perfect english.

doo4adoo Posted December 16, 2022 Report Share Posted December 16, 2022 Wow Is he the only option in town? I was thinking of sucking it up and doing it this winter but that's getting a little pricey - greedy Might just do the ferry over and do the eastern section for now, assuming the Titanic is still operating these days Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Florida Snowman Posted December 17, 2022 Report Share Posted December 17, 2022 (edited) Not sure if they are still doing this service. It’s been 5-6 years since I’ve used them. http://quebecrider.com/forums/uploads/monthly_2022_12/655912A8-C9EF-41D3-A4B6-41CFBA935E71.thumb.png.4beb2538556982584c13aef878e98646.png Edited December 17, 2022 by Florida Snowman smclelan and MrGutz 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
