Grandview Heights is small, almost entirely detached and almost entirely owner-occupied: a neighbourhood of houses with driveways in front of them. Households here run well past a single occupant, so a move is more often a family's worth of contents than a studio's, and the day is planned around the volume inside rather than the access outside. Nothing here stands five storeys, so there is no lift to book and no loading bay to reserve.
The figures below widen the frame to the southwest Edmonton communities Grandview Heights borders, which is where the measured pattern sits.

How long does a house move in Grandview Heights take?
The middle move across the 199 recorded in the surrounding southwest communities ran 4.75 hours on site, with half of them between 2.75 and 7.63 hours. A detached house with three people worth of contents in it belongs at the longer end of a day like that rather than the shorter. Travel time within city limits is not charged, so the on-site hours are what the total is built from.
-
Do I need a permit to park a moving truck in Grandview Heights?
Usually not, since almost every home here has a driveway the truck can use. If it does have to stand in the roadway itself, Edmonton's On-Street Construction and Maintenance permit is what covers it, currently at no fee, with 6 working days of notice asked for low-impact work and 10 for high-impact and roughly 6 business days of processing.
-
What is included in the hourly rate for a move in Grandview Heights?
The movers and a truck sized to the job, at a rate written into the agreement before the crew starts. The $886 median above is a total with tax rather than a subtotal. What is not in it is packing and bin rental, quoted on their own. With three people to a household here, how much is boxed before the crew arrives is what moves a day inside that $488 to $1,585 band.

Grandview Heights neighbourhood guide for moving day
Grandview Heights is a neighbourhood of driveways: almost every home is detached, and a driveway is the simplest access a crew can be given. The truck stands roughly where the car does, and nothing waits on a building. What is left to plan is the volume inside, and with three people to a household a full house is a full day. Where a drive will not take a truck, Edmonton's On-Street Construction and Maintenance permit covers occupying the street, currently at no fee; a residential move counts as low-impact work, which is asked for 6 working days of notice.

Figures come from Cactus’s own completed residential moves (business and high-frequency accounts excluded) and from official municipal open data; they are medians and quartiles, never averages, every published figure rests on at least five moves, percentages are rounded, and all-time counts are floors because some older pickup and drop-off addresses were never geocoded.

Very professional young people. Did an exceptional job of moving heave article. Highly recommend Lovish and Chint.

10/10 (more than that) recommend Cactus Moving. Lovish and Vadym went above and beyond for me with my move. We showed up to my new rental and the stairs had been removed by the contractor so no way to get in… but they handled that with ease and got everything done with care.
