Money & Currency
Get a travel card →Canadian Dollar, CAD
There are no currency exchange services in Schefferville; bring enough Canadian cash from a bank in a larger town. Avoid the high fees at remote airport counters elsewhere — you won't find one here.
Visa and Mastercard are accepted at the grocery store and hotel, but most cash-only for small services and taxis. Contactless works at a few shops; expect limited mobile pay.
Tips are not expected in this remote community; rounding up the bill at the diner or giving a couple of dollars for good service is appreciated but never required. Taxis and hotel staff do not expect tips.
Eat, Shop & Travel on a Budget
Cheap car hire →Filter coffee at the local diner or gas station: about $2.
A sandwich or burger at the diner: around $12.
A simple main like pasta or a grilled chicken plate: $18–$25.
No street food scene here — the only cheap-eats are at the grocery store deli or the diner near the main intersection.
The Northern Store is the one supermarket in the area (part of the North West Company chain).
No high street shops; the Northern Store has basic clothing and outdoor gear. Best to bring what you need.
Walking is the cheapest way around town (small). The airport is right in town — a taxi from the airport to anywhere in Schefferville is a flat $10. No public transport or day pass.
Bring all supplies from a larger centre before you arrive, as everything here is marked up. Share taxis or walk — the whole town is walkable. Cook your own meals using the Northern Store rather than eating out every meal.
