Dorval is a tight-knit West Island community just minutes from YUL airport — with charming residential streets, the Dorval Gardens shopping area, and a beautiful lakefront along Lac Saint-Louis. Small-town feel, big-city access via the A-20.
Dorval is a small but distinctive West Island city sandwiched between the A-20 highway and Lac Saint-Louis, right next to Montreal-Trudeau International Airport (YUL). Despite its proximity to the airport, Dorval's residential streets are surprisingly quiet and charming — tree-lined avenues with well-maintained bungalows, split-levels, and Cape Cod-style homes built in the 1950s through 1970s. The lakefront area south of Lakeshore Road features larger properties with water views, while the neighbourhood around Dorval Gardens offers easy access to shops and services. Moving in Dorval means working with typical suburban layouts — driveways, garages, and mature trees — with the bonus of quick highway access to downtown Montreal. Our crews handle Dorval moves efficiently, from the compact streets near the train station to the spacious waterfront properties along the lake.
