Hudson runs full. It is a northwest Edmonton community of owner-occupied homes built in the early 2000s, and its households are large: more than three people at the middle, with only a small share of homes holding one person. That points at family-sized loads on owner timelines: possession dates rather than lease ends, a whole house rather than a suite, and a garage and a basement to clear as well as the rooms.
Access is ground level throughout, so the day is planned around a driveway, a front step and an interior stair rather than a lift and a booked bay. The figures below widen the lens to the northwest Edmonton communities next to Hudson.
Moving costs around Hudson, by the numbers
That set is 23 northwest Edmonton communities and the 267 residential moves recorded across them: 74% small, 21% medium and 5% large. The middle job ran 4 hours on site, half of them between 2.75 and 5.88 hours, and cost $700 with tax counted, with half falling between $496 and $1,076. Oliver contributes 89 of those moves and Downtown 75, so most of the count comes from a handful of the 23.

How much does it cost to move in Hudson?
$700 is the median local move across the 267 residential jobs recorded in the northwest Edmonton communities around Hudson, total cost with tax, with half of them between $496 and $1,076. A local move is billed by the hour, on a rate set by the number of movers and the size of the truck, and the agreement states it before the crew starts.

How long does a move in Hudson take?
The middle job across those 267 northwest Edmonton moves ran 4 hours on site, with half of them between 2.75 and 5.88 hours. Hudson households run to 3.2 people at the middle in mostly detached homes, which is at the fuller side of what that band covers, so it is worth planning the day rather than the morning.
-
Does the time of year change what a move costs in Hudson?
No. May is the heaviest month on record across the northwest Edmonton communities around Hudson, then August and April, but a busier month is not a dearer one: an hourly rate does not move with the calendar. What decides a Hudson bill is the size of the house, which with 3.2 people to a household at the middle is usually a full one.
-
Do you charge for travel time out to Hudson?
No. There is no charge for travel time within city limits, so a Hudson move is billed for the hours the crew is actually working, a median of 4 across the 267 nearby jobs.
-
Do I need a permit to park a moving truck in Hudson?
Only if the truck cannot use the driveway and has to stand on the roadway. Edmonton covers that with an On-Street Construction and Maintenance permit, which carries no fee at present; low-impact requests want a minimum of 6 working days' notice and high-impact ones 10, with processing time on top.

Hudson neighbourhood guide for moving day
Two lines here shape the day. Nothing in Hudson is in a building of five storeys or more, so there is no tower lift to book and no loading bay to share; the plan is a driveway, a front step and an interior stair. And with most homes owner-occupied, dates tend to be fixed weeks ahead, which makes the one piece of paperwork easy to meet: where the truck has to stand on the roadway, Edmonton's On-Street Construction and Maintenance permit asks for a minimum of 6 working days' notice on low-impact work, 10 on high-impact, and carries no fee at present.

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.

This was such an efficient group. They were friendly and clarified exactly what needed to be done. Even when we said not to worry about shoes and floors they still laid out mats to protect the floor. I highly recommend and the mini cactus gift at the end was a cute touch.

We had a great experience with Cactus Moving. From the 1st phone call to the final box being moved. Nolan and Mo were friendly and very careful with our items. Would highly recommend if you're needing movers. Also, the welcome home gift at the end of the move was appreciated.
