Moving in Mimico

Mimico has changed faster than almost anywhere in Etobicoke. The Humber Bay Shores towers along Lake Shore Boulevard are dense, new and run on booked service elevators - but several of them put the loading dock a long way from the residential elevator core, and that walk is repeated on every load.

Inland, old Mimico village is a different neighbourhood entirely: narrow streets, century houses, detached garages and driveways a large truck cannot always reverse into. Those moves need the access checked in advance.

The other Mimico factor is Lake Shore and the Gardiner. Loading at the wrong hour can add an hour to an otherwise ordinary move, so we schedule around it.

How long it takes

A Humber Bay one-bedroom is typically 3.5 to 5 hours.

The walk between the loading dock and the elevator in the lakeshore towers is longer than most people expect, and it happens on every trip.

FAQs

Mimico Moving Questions

How long does a Humber Bay condo move take?

A one-bedroom is usually 3.5 to 5 hours. The dock-to-elevator walk in some of those towers is what pushes it past a typical downtown condo.

Do you provide a certificate of insurance?

Yes, free of charge, filed with your property manager before moving day. Most lakeshore buildings will not release the elevator without one.

Can you move houses in old Mimico?

Yes. We check the street width and driveway access before quoting, since a large truck cannot always get close on those older streets.

Do you cover the rest of Etobicoke?

Yes - Humber Bay, New Toronto, Long Branch, the Kingsway and the rest of Etobicoke are all local moves for us.

How is the cost worked out?

Hourly for the crew plus one truck and travel charge. The Toronto moving cost page shows the current rates.
