Matt Berry is a neighbourhood of owner-occupied family houses, and that decides most of what a move here looks like. The job starts at a private front door on a residential street rather than at a lobby and a booked service lift; the load is a whole household rather than a single room; and the date is usually a possession day, which tends to be settled further ahead than the end of a lease is.
The middle home here belongs to the 1991 to 2000 band, so what shapes the morning is normally the driveway and the street rather than a shared corridor. The hours and costs below are drawn from the ring of northeast Edmonton communities Matt Berry sits inside, which is the closest measure we hold of what a move here takes.
Moving costs around Matt Berry, by the numbers
Ninety-four residential moves across 32 northeast Edmonton communities stand behind the figures on this page, with Belvedere, Parkdale and Clareview Town Centre contributing the most of them. The median cost was $677 with tax counted, half of them between $436 and $1,075, and the median day ran 4 hours on site with a middle half of 2.25 to 5.75. The grading breaks 76% small, 18% medium and 6% large. Read it as a range rather than a price: at the same hourly rate, a bigger load is simply a longer day.

How long does a move in Matt Berry take?
The middle job in the surrounding 94 moves ran 4 hours on site, with half of them finishing between 2.25 and 5.75 hours. A whole household takes more of those hours than a partial load does: the hourly rate does not change with the size of the home, but the number of hours does.
-
Why do moving quotes in Matt Berry vary so much?
Because a single median covers every size of job. Of the 94 moves in the communities around Matt Berry, 76% graded small, 18% medium and 6% large, and at one hourly rate those are three quite different days. That is why the published band runs from $436 to $1,075 instead of resting on one number.
-
Do you offer packing in Matt Berry?
Yes, and bin rentals too, quoted separately from the hourly moving rate. Since a local move is billed for the hours the crew is actually working, how much of the house is already boxed when the truck arrives is one of the things that decides where the day lands against the 4-hour median from the 94 moves nearby.
-
Do I need a permit to park a moving truck on the street in Matt Berry?
Only if the truck has to occupy the roadway itself. Edmonton covers that with an On-Street Construction and Maintenance permit, which currently carries no fee. The City asks for a minimum of 6 working days of notice on low-impact work such as a house move and 10 on higher-impact jobs, and processing itself takes about 6 business days. A driveway or an off-street parking area needs nothing.

Matt Berry neighbourhood guide for moving day
Two things on this list change the day rather than the price. The first is tenure: this is an owner-occupied neighbourhood of detached houses, so a job here is a driveway, a front door and whatever stairs the house itself has, and there is no building management to clear the date with first. The second is the curb, and it is the one item worth acting on early. Edmonton's On-Street Construction and Maintenance permit measures its notice in working days rather than hours, so if the truck has to stand in the roadway, that request goes in the week before rather than the morning of.

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 Cactus for a recent move in Edmonton and were super impressed by their professionalism. I had a few hiccups in the booking process but the move itself was super smooth. I would recommend them to anyone making a move in Edmonton.

Did a long distance move and it was the smoothest move ever. The guys were so kind, respectful and on time. I trusted the reviews and wasn’t disappointed, plus we got our little Cactus. Highly recommended.

April 2024: From initial call to completion of move we were very impressed and happy with Cactus Movers. A crew of 3 showed up on time and worked hard throughout the day taking 2 full loads in their 26’ truck. They took care in preparations and protecting our stuff, floors and walls.

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.
