About Renting a Car at Montreal Roxboro

Roxboro is a quiet suburb in western Montreal (Pierrefonds-Roxboro) with two rental agencies along Boulevard Gouin Ouest and Chemin Bois-Franc. The location provides quick access to Pierre Elliott Trudeau Airport just 8 km to the south (10–15 minutes via Autoroute 13), and Laval is reached via Pont Médéric-Martin in 15 minutes to the north. Roxboro is an excellent alternative to more expensive car rental directly at the airport.

Roxboro borders Dollard-des-Ormeaux to the west and Pierrefonds to the east, with Rivière des Prairies to the north. Parc nature du Bois-de-Liesse – one of Montreal's nature reserves – is just 2 km to the east and offers hiking trails and skiing. Fairview Pointe-Claire shopping and dining complex is reached in 10 minutes' drive to the west.

Roxboro is the smart choice if you're flying into YUL and want to avoid the airport markup on rental car prices – save 15–25% by picking up your car in Roxboro. Autoroute 13 south takes you to the airport in 10 minutes, and Autoroute 40 east leads to downtown in 25 minutes. Book in advance – only two rental agencies are available.

How do I get from YUL airport to the rental agencies in Roxboro? Take a taxi or Uber north from YUL via Autoroute 13 – it takes 10–15 minutes and costs approximately 20–25 CAD, which can still be worthwhile if you save on the rental car price. What can I explore in the West Island area with a rental car from Roxboro?

Fairview Pointe-Claire (10 minutes), Parc nature du Cap-Saint-Jacques (15 minutes), and the Vaudreuil-Soulanges region (30 minutes to the west) are popular destinations from Roxboro. How long does it take to drive from Roxboro to downtown Montreal? Via Autoroute 40 east, it takes 25–35 minutes for the 20 km to downtown.

Avoid rush hour (7–9 a.m. and 4–6 p.m.) when congestion on A-40 can significantly extend your travel time.

We compare prices from all major providers at Montreal Roxboro so you can see the total cost upfront — including insurance, fuel terms and any extras. Most bookings include free cancellation up to 48 hours before pickup, giving you flexibility if your plans change.
