Student Moving

One room out of a shared house is not a household, and should not be priced like one.

What we do

Student moves have two things working against them. The load is small, so a company that only sells full-truck moves will quote you as though you owned a house. And the dates are fixed - almost everyone in Ontario moves on May 1 or September 1, which is exactly when every mover in the province is already booked.

We price small loads as small loads, with a van or small truck and a short minimum booking, and we hold slots for term dates if you book early enough.

The rest is the practical stuff: getting one room out of a shared house without disturbing the other four, clearing what you are not taking so the landlord cannot keep the deposit, and holding your things over the summer if your leases do not line up.

FAQs

Frequently Asked Questions

How far ahead should I book a May 1 or September 1 move?

Several weeks. Those two dates are the busiest in Ontario and they sell out first. Any other date in the month is far easier to get.

Can you move just my room out of a shared house?

Yes, that is a normal booking. We move your room only, and the other tenants are not affected.

How much does a student move cost?

Most are a short hourly booking with a two-person crew and a van. Stairs and how far the truck can park matter more than the distance, and we factor both into the quote.

Can you store my things over the summer?

If your leases do not line up we can hold the load and deliver on your new move-in date. Tell us the gap when you book.

Can you take away what I am not keeping?

Yes. Add junk removal to the booking and we clear the room at the same time, which is usually what stands between you and the deposit.
