Tenure in Lynnwood lands almost exactly on the line, owned and rented in near-equal share, and that one fact changes how a date gets chosen here. Owners move on possession days, renters at the end of a month, and Lynnwood does both. The housing splits the same way: about half of it detached, the rest divided between low-rise apartments and a quarter of homes in a building of five storeys or more.
So a crew working this neighbourhood has a driveway and a back staircase on one job and a lobby, a lift and a booked loading area on the next. The figures below are drawn from the ring of southwest Edmonton communities Lynnwood sits inside, which is the closest read we hold on what a move in this part of the city takes.
Moving costs around Lynnwood, by the numbers
Around Lynnwood there are 54 southwest Edmonton communities carrying 210 residential moves between them. Garneau, Haddow and Terwillegar South are among the ones bordering it. 70% of those graded small, 25% medium and 5% large. The middle job ran 4.63 hours on site and came to $887 with tax in, with half of them landing between $482 and $1,604. That is a wide band, which is what a set holding both one-bedroom apartments and full houses looks like.

How much does it cost to move in Lynnwood?
The median residential move across the southwest Edmonton communities around Lynnwood costs $887 with tax counted, and half of the 210 completed there fell between $482 and $1,604. Lynnwood work is quoted at an hourly rate set by the crew count and the truck, and both are settled in the agreement before the first box moves.
-
What is a move from a Lynnwood apartment building like?
A quarter of the homes in Lynnwood are in a building of five storeys or more, and if yours is one of them the lift and the loading area are the first things to arrange with the building. That booking is the part of the day no crew can make on your behalf. Everything else is billed exactly as a house move is: the movers, the truck and the hours they work.
-
Do renters and owners in Lynnwood move differently?
The rate is the same; the calendar is not. Lynnwood's homes divide almost exactly evenly between owned and rented, so both dates are ordinary here: a lease that ends on a fixed day at a month end, or a possession that lands whenever the deal closes. A lease date is usually known further ahead, which is the one practical advantage it carries into a booking.
-
How long does a move around Lynnwood take?
The middle job among those 210 moves ran 4.63 hours on site, with half of them between 2.5 and 7.5 hours. Travel time within city limits is not charged, so the clock covers work at the two addresses. What moves a job along that spread is how much there is to carry, the stairs, and whether a lift sits between the door and the truck.
-
Do I need a permit to park a moving truck in Lynnwood?
Only if the truck has to occupy the roadway rather than a driveway or a building's own loading area. Edmonton's On-Street Construction and Maintenance permit covers that, currently with no fee attached, and processing takes around 6 business days. Low-impact work should be submitted at least 6 working days ahead, and high-impact work 10.

Lynnwood neighbourhood guide for moving day
Two of these entries set up the day. A quarter of Lynnwood's homes sit in a building of five storeys or more, and where a job starts at one of those the lift and the loading area are what to book with the building beforehand. The other is the curb. Edmonton handles a truck in the roadway through an On-Street Construction and Maintenance permit, which currently carries no fee but takes around 6 business days to process and wants low-impact work submitted at least 6 working days ahead. A week-before decision, then, rather than a morning-of one.

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.

They did a move 1 month ago. I just realized that I have left a review. I even took a shot with the packing that they did. I was impressed because I didn't even tell them how important my furniture for me!!! So I guess they just have a policy on how to do the jobs step by step.
