By following these steps, your long-distance move or local move will be seamless and well-organized!
The cost of moving to a new house in Markham can vary widely depending on factors such as the distance of the move, the amount of belongings being moved, the type of moving services selected, and other additional expenses such as insurance and packing materials. However, according to recent estimates, the average cost for a local move (within the GTA) ranges from $500 to $1,500, while the average cost for a long-distance move (from the GTA to other parts of Canada) can range from $2,000 to $10,000 or more. It is best to get a personalized estimate from a moving company to determine the actual cost of your move in the Markham area.
The best season and time to order a moving service can depend on various factors, but generally, moving during the off-season, such as fall or winter, may be less expensive and less busy, while moving during the summer months may be more expensive and busier. It's recommended to book your moving service at least a few weeks in advance to ensure availability.
When moving, it's generally recommended to pack non-essential items first, such as seasonal items, infrequently used items, and items in storage areas, in order to reduce the stress and workload closer to your moving day. Creating a packing plan and labeling system can also help ensure a smooth and organized move.
You'll need some strong cardboard boxes, trusty bubble wrap, and a roll of trusty packing tape. Take each item and give it its own bubble wrap cocoon or a cozy foam blanket. Then, secure it firmly to prevent any bumpy rides ahead. To prevent unwanted movement during transportation, fill any gaps in the box with packing peanuts or crumpled paper. Your precious possessions will be safe and sound in their new home.
Please note that all rates are subject to 3 hour minimum policy + travel fee.
*Travel fee depends on your location and distance you are moving ($140-170 for GTA). It covers our time to get to your pickup location, come back after job is done, fuel and insurance (in transit). Feel free to inquire about travel fee beyond GTA.
Our movers use protective floor runners (carpets) to safeguard your floors and carpets during the move.
Wardrobe boxes are one of the most efficient and convenient ways to transport hanging clothes. They are designed for quick assembly and easy packing, allowing you to transfer garments directly from your closet to the box without hassle. This method ensures your clothes remain wrinkle-free and organized during the move, making it a preferred choice for professional movers. We provide wardrobe boxes as part of our moving services to make your move even easier.
