Moving in Halifax
Local moves apply to those moves occurring within a sixty km. radius of the Halifax - Dartmouth area.
A local move in Halifax is one in which the cost of the move is charged by the hour, depending on the size of the van, the number of people employed on the move, plus the cost of extra services such as packing, storage, valuation, etc. Charges are based on the actual time on the job plus driving time between your residence and our Halifax office. Preparation before the move is your key to keeping moving costs down.
Arrangements for a local move are normally made with us over the telephone. They should be made at least two weeks before you move. If you wish to move at the end of a month or during the summer, making arrangements as far in advance as possible is advisable due to increased volume during those periods.
The following information will assist us in preplanning your move in Halifax. It will help us to estimate its probable cost as accurately as possible:
- How many rooms are in your home (do not include bathrooms)
- If you are moving to or from an apartment, what floor is the apartment on and are there any elevators
- Are there goods stored in the basement, locker, or at an offsite location
- Do you have a piano, a freezer or any such large items and where are they located
- Are there any articles which because of their size, weight, location or fragility may cause a problem during the move
