Movers in Lee Ridge: what we know about moving here

Lee Ridge is built low and built attached. Row houses account for close to a third of its homes and single-detached houses for a little more than that, with semi-detached filling much of the remainder, and none of it is in a building of five storeys or more. Two-thirds of those homes are owned, and households run fuller than a single occupant, so a job here is usually a whole household rather than a room's worth of boxes: an interior staircase, a driveway or a shared lane, and no tower lift in the picture.

The figures below come from the ring of southeast Edmonton communities Lee Ridge sits inside, which is the closest read we hold on what a move around here takes.

Moving costs around Lee Ridge, by the numbers

There are 30 southeast Edmonton communities around Lee Ridge, counting Summerside, Bonnie Doon, King Edward Park and the rest of the ring, and 111 completed residential moves between them. The middle one took 4.25 hours on site, with half running between 2.75 and 6.75, and came to $843 with tax counted, half of them between $500 and $1,312. 63% graded small, 28% medium and 9% large.

How much does it cost to move in Lee Ridge?

The median residential move across the southeast Edmonton communities around Lee Ridge costs $843 with tax in, and half of the 111 completed there fell between $500 and $1,312. Cactus prices an Edmonton local move by the hour, the rate set by how many movers and how big a truck the job needs, and written into the agreement before the crew starts.

  • Is moving out of a row house different from moving out of a detached house?

    The rate is identical; the day is not. Lee Ridge is close to evenly split between the two, and the difference is access rather than volume: a row house usually means a narrower path from the door to wherever the truck can stand, and an interior staircase doing the work a driveway does elsewhere. Nothing here is in a building of five storeys or more, so no tower lift is involved either way.

  • Why is the range of prices around Lee Ridge so wide?

    Because the 111 moves behind that median are every size of home: 63% graded small, 28% medium and 9% large. The hours run the same way, 4.25 at the middle with half of them between 2.75 and 6.75. On an hourly rate the two ends of that band are two different days rather than two different prices.

  • Do I need a permit to park a moving truck in Lee Ridge?

    Only if the truck has to occupy the roadway. Edmonton's On-Street Construction and Maintenance permit covers that, it carries no fee at present, and processing runs about 6 business days. Low-impact work asks for a minimum of 6 working days of notice and high-impact work 10, with peak construction season stretching both, so it is a call for the week before.

  • What is included in the hourly rate, and is travel time charged?

    The rate buys the movers and the truck at the size the job needs, and it is written into the agreement before the crew starts. Travel time within city limits is not charged, so the hours on the invoice are the hours worked at your two addresses. There is no deposit on a local move and no fuel surcharge; packing services and bin rentals can be added.

Lee Ridge neighbourhood guide for moving day

Two entries here decide the shape of the day. Nothing in Lee Ridge is in a building of five storeys or more, so no tower lift or loading dock enters the plan. But a neighbourhood of row houses and detached houses means an interior staircase is the likely access rather than a lobby, and stairs are what turn a 4.25-hour booking into a longer one. The other is the curb. Edmonton's On-Street Construction and Maintenance permit carries no fee at present and the City asks for a minimum of 6 working days of notice on low-impact work, longer in peak construction season, so a truck that needs the road reserved is a decision for the week before.

Booking the curb

On-Street Construction and Maintenance (OSCAM) Permit

City of Edmonton
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.

    Residential moving done right! Fantastic company. We used them today for our 2 bedroom move and everything went fantastic. The movers showed up on time and we got a free gift of coffee from their office to kick start our morning! Very nice personal touch. Both movers were polite and professional.

    The service was fantastic! My mother and I needed movers for all our oversized furniture and bins/boxes. The customer service throughout the process of scouting services and using their services was terrific. Andrey and Vadim quickly moved everything and even removed our junk within the same day!
