LOCAL MOVING SERVICES
We know the area.
We’ve been a part of the community for years, so we have experience and best practices when it comes to moves in and around the Peterborough area. Local moves are charged based on an hourly rate for a van and two or three professional movers, including travel time from our office to your home. Each move includes 200 furniture pads to protect your belongings, free wardrobe cartons for your hanging clothes, floor protectors, and specialized equipment to help your move go quickly and smoothly.
LONG DISTANCE MOVING SERVICES
Get your belongings on time.
We’re with you, wherever you need to go. Within Ontario, across Canada or around the world, we are here to ensure your move goes smoothly. Our Lindsay-Peterborough Movers & Storage Consultants can answer any questions you may have about the moving process, discuss shipment protection options , and provide you with a professional cost estimate based on the weight of your cargo and distance that must be travelled. If your new home isn’t immediately available, we can also arrange for the storage of your belongings in a warehouse or in shipping containers.
STORAGE SERVICES
Short term and long term storage is available in insured, climate-controlled warehouses. If you require longer-term storage, goods can be packed into containers to minimize handling. Mini-store units are also available to rent.
USA / OVERSEAS MOVING
Taking the stress out of a move to the United States
Moving to the United States requires a good understanding of your responsibilities, documentation requirements, and what to expect at Canada/U.S. Customs in order to avoid unnecessary delays and/or having your shipment held up at the border. You must, however, enter the U.S. and declare your residency before your shipment can be admitted. Both countries have specific regulations regarding the items you can or can’t import and a list of items that are prohibited.
How are charges based for local moves or for moves within my state?
Local (intrastate) moves are generally based on a per-hour cost for the personnel and
the number of vehicles that the mover provides (up to a certain distance, with longer
distances based on the weight of your shipment and the mileage it is transported) and the
level of liability that the mover will cover in the event of loss or damage is generally
less than would apply for an interstate move.
How do I get an estimate?
Once you have compiled a list of movers, inform them of the destination and timing of your
move. Ask them about the types of services they offer. Also ask them to explain their
estimates in detail and to give you a copy. If any company refuses to give you a written
estimate, you should eliminate them from consideration. Then carefully compare to see which
mover best suits your needs and budget.
The cost of your move will be based on the actual weight of your belongings and the distance
they are shipped, plus the amount of packing and other services that you require.
To help you anticipate the cost of your move, movers will give you an estimate of the price.
Be sure to get written estimates from at least 3 different movers so that you can compare
their services and prices.
