Greenfield is a detached-house neighbourhood almost throughout, and an owner-occupied one. What keeps the moving picture from being uniform is who is inside those houses: households here run to a little under three people at the median, but close to a quarter of the homes hold a single person. The same street therefore produces both a full family move and a one-bedroom load, billed at the same hourly rate and taking a very different number of hours.
The band below widens the view to the southwest Edmonton communities Greenfield adjoins, which is where the measurable pattern lives.

How much does it cost to move in Greenfield?
The median residential move across the southwest Edmonton communities around Greenfield costs $864, total cost with tax, and half of those 198 jobs fell between $466 and $1,534. A local move is billed by the hour. The rate follows the number of movers and the size of the truck, and the agreement states it before the crew starts.
-
Why is the range on that figure so wide?
Because one median has to cover every size of home, and the 198 moves behind the $466 to $1,534 band run from a one-bedroom load to a full house. The hours say the same thing: half of those jobs ran anywhere between 2.5 and 7.5 hours on site. In Greenfield, where most homes are detached but close to a quarter hold a single person, both ends of that spread are ordinary.
-
How long does a move in Greenfield take?
The middle move across the 198 recorded in the surrounding southwest communities ran 4.63 hours on site, with half of them between 2.5 and 7.5 hours. A detached house with a basement and a garage in play is a full working day; a one-person household is a morning. Because travel time within city limits is not charged, those on-site hours are what the total is built from.
-
Is it cheaper to move at a certain time of year in Greenfield?
No. The hourly rate does not change with the calendar, so no date is priced differently from another. What moves with the season is volume: across the southwest Edmonton communities around Greenfield, August, June and April carry the most completed moves. Because the rate is hourly, the size of the job stays the only real lever on what a move costs.
-
Is there a deposit or a fuel surcharge on a Greenfield move?
Neither. There is no deposit on a local move, no fuel surcharge, and no charge for travel time within city limits. The hourly rate stated in the agreement covers the movers and a truck sized to the job, and the $864 median above is a total with tax. Packing services and bin rentals are available in Greenfield and are quoted separately.

Greenfield neighbourhood guide for moving day
The housing here points at basements and garages rather than lobbies: detached almost throughout, nothing at five storeys or more, and households of a size that fills a house. That usually means a driveway load and a crew that can work without waiting on a building. The kerb is the only part needing permission: Edmonton's On-Street Construction and Maintenance permit covers a truck occupying the street, carries no fee at present, and takes about 6 business days to process, with 6 working days of notice asked on low-impact work.

- What it costs
- No fee currently: OSCAM Permits associated with Temporary Crossing, Tree Shrub Hoarding and Waste Bin, POD or SeaCan work reasons currently have no fees associated with them. A daily permitting fee for on-street placement of commercial waste bins, PODs or SeaCans is planned but is on hold until further notice.
- How much notice
- Average processing time is 6 business days. Low-impact projects should be submitted a minimum of 6 working days prior to start of work; high-impact projects a minimum of 10 working days. Longer processing during peak construction season (March to October).

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.

We used these guys to move us from Edmonton to Calgary. They are the only company who had a great price and didn’t consolidate items. Also they delivered the same day! Absolutely fantastic! We will be moving again this month within Calgary and I defined will use them again. They gave us real cactus!

Absolutely thrilled with Cactus Moving in Edmonton! 🌵 From the moment they arrived, it was clear these movers were in a league of their own — uniformed, professional, and full of positive energy.

I had an absoloutely astonishing experience with Cactus moving. When I was looking for a moving company I couldn't find another moving company with as many amazing reviews as Cactus has. The man (i can't remember his name) on the phone was both professional and friendly.

Cactus Moving moved me from Edmonton to Vancouver Island. I was impressed with their responsiveness and their timely and affordable quote for moving. Everyone was very professional and friendly to work with.

Oleg called ahead, arriving promptly at 7 am with his professional crew: Abhishek, Chint, and Lovish. Efficient, respectful service. Will use again.

We had a small job and Cactus did not hesitate to help us out. They came and moved our fridge and stove out of the kitchen while we were renovating our kitchen. The day after the renos were done they came and put it back. Thank you Oleg, Abhishek, and the other fellow for you very professional help.
