Long-Distance Flow

How a Surrey Long-Distance Tow Call Works in 4 Steps.

  1. Confirm origin and destination

    Tell the operator where the vehicle is now and where it needs to go. Each route has different time and pricing implications.

  2. Receive a flat-rate quote

    For runs over 80 km, the operator quotes a negotiated flat rate rather than per-kilometre. Price depends on distance, vehicle type and whether mountain-pass routing is involved.

  3. Operator commits to the run

    Long-distance commits the operator and rig to your call for several hours. The driver leaves with full fuel, route plan and confirmed destination contact.

  4. Handoff at destination

    Vehicle arrives at the confirmed destination. Inter-provincial runs may involve a single-truck delivery or a meet-and-handoff with a partner operator at the border.

cross-border + permits

CBSA/CBP Border Tow Paperwork

Peace Arch (Highway 99) cross-border to Bellingham WA requires a US CBP declaration form filed at the Blaine crossing — passenger and light-commercial vehicles route through the passenger lane. Pacific Truck Crossing (Highway 15) is commercial-only, adds a CBP commercial manifest declaration, and connects to I-5 south. Our Class 6 cross-border flatbed pre-files the CBP e-manifest at 176 Street before dispatch — the border broker fee ($85-$120 depending on cargo) itemizes on the invoice. Cross-provincial to Whistler village (Highway 99 north Sea-to-Sky) doesn't require CBP but does need a BC Highway Patrol pre-clearance for permit loads over 4,200 kg.

BC ICBC no-fault workflow changes billing. Pacific Truck Crossing (Hwy 15) commercial-only border uses similar CBSA/US CBP protocol for Class 8 heavy-duty semi tow-in. Long-distance Class 8 heavy-duty across borders may require oversized/overweight permits from BC Ministry of Transportation and equivalent Washington State DOT agencies. Surrey 24/7 dispatch handles multi-permit coordination during staging. ICBC direct-billing continues to work cross-border if under Basic Autoplan comprehensive.
