Moving in Toronto

Toronto is the hardest city in Ontario to move in, and it has nothing to do with distance. It is the elevator booking your building only opens for four hours, the permit you need to park a truck on a residential street, and the streetcar tracks that decide which side of the road you can load from.

We move in this city every day, so those things are planned rather than discovered. We book service elevators, arrange street occupancy permits where they are required, and time downtown moves around rush hour instead of driving straight into it.

Old Toronto housing stock brings its own problems - narrow staircases in semis, third-floor walk-ups in the Annex, basement apartments with a single tight turn at the bottom. We measure before we lift.

FAQs

Toronto Moving Questions

Do I need a parking permit to move in Toronto?

On many residential streets, yes. We tell you when one is needed for your address and help arrange it, so the truck is not ticketed or moved on mid-move.

How much does a move in Toronto cost?

A one-bedroom condo is usually a half day; a three-bedroom house a full day. Elevator windows, stairs and parking distance drive the number more than kilometres do, and we price all three upfront.

Can you move on a weekday downtown?

Yes. We schedule downtown loads outside peak traffic where we can, and many buildings only release freight elevators on weekdays anyway.

Do you move from Toronto to other cities?

Yes - anywhere in Ontario, on a flat-rate quote with one crew loading and unloading.
