How long does a move in Parkallen take?

The middle move inside Parkallen took 7.5 hours on site, against 4.63 hours across the surrounding southwest Edmonton communities, and half of the jobs recorded here ran between 2.94 and 9.81 hours. That count is a floor rather than a total, so read the band as the shape of the work rather than as a quote. Because the day is billed hourly, the hours are what decide the total.

Why do moves in Parkallen take longer than the ones around it?

Because of the route rather than the load: 83% of Parkallen's jobs were graded small, the same end of the scale as the 70% next door, yet the median day runs 7.5 hours against 4.63. The neighbourhood is mostly detached houses out of the oldest build band the census reports, and an older house is where a crew spends time on stairs and turns rather than on volume.

What does a three-bedroom move cost near Parkallen?

$1,585 is the median for a three-bedroom house or townhouse move across southwest Edmonton, with half of those 28 jobs between $1,031 and $2,191. That is 3 movers, 1 truck and 8 hours on site at the midpoint. The card carries the figure for the communities beside Parkallen rather than for Parkallen alone, which has too few moves at that size to publish one.

What does a four-bedroom-plus house move cost near Parkallen?

The median is $2,232 across southwest Edmonton, on 4 movers, 1 truck and 8.13 hours on site, with half of those 12 jobs between $1,249 and $2,877. Twelve moves is a small base, so it describes the middle of a handful of real days rather than a rate. What makes a day that long is how much of the house is packed before the crew arrives, not a different rate.

Do you charge for travel time to Parkallen?

No. There is no charge for travel time within city limits, so a Parkallen move is billed for the hours the crew is actually working, a median of 7.5 of them here. There is also no deposit on a local move and no fuel surcharge, and packing services and bin rentals are quoted separately.

Movers in Parkallen: what we know about moving here

The moves Cactus has completed inside Parkallen run long. The middle one took 7.5 hours on site against 4.63 hours across the southwest Edmonton communities around it, and the median crew was 3 movers, with half of these jobs using 2 or 3. It is not that the loads are large: 83% of them were graded small, against 70% next door.

What the panel below points at instead is the age of the housing. The middle home in Parkallen comes out of the oldest build band the census reports, and the neighbourhood is mostly detached houses rather than flats. An older house is carried rather than lifted. What slows it is a turn in the stair, a narrow landing, a doorway to negotiate, and none of that shows on a load list. It shows in the spread instead: half of the moves here ran anywhere between 2.94 and 9.81 hours, which is a wide window for one neighbourhood at one size grading. A walkthrough before the date is worth more here than a longer inventory, because what it measures is the route rather than the volume.

Parkallen neighbourhood guide for moving day

The census line that matters most on a Parkallen moving day is the era: the middle home here comes from the oldest build band the census reports, and the neighbourhood is mostly detached houses. That is where the extra hours in the band above come from, and it is why a walkthrough beforehand earns its keep. The measurement that counts is the turn in the stair, not the size of the room. Nothing in Parkallen is in a building of five storeys or more, so no tower lift or loading bay enters the plan. For the roadway, Edmonton's On-Street Construction and Maintenance permit carries no fee at present, takes roughly 6 business days to process, and asks 6 working days' notice on low-impact work.

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).

Parkallen moving costs, by the numbers

Since 2025, at least 6 residential moves have been attributed to Parkallen's own boundary, and that count is a floor rather than a total. Hours and crew size are published at this level; a price is not, because the handful of hourly local moves behind them cannot carry a median worth quoting. The bands further down the page therefore come from the communities around Parkallen, and the hours are the figure to read them against. It is the same rate, applied to a longer day.

Residential moves in Parkallen: at least 6
Crew hours on site: 7.5 median
Crew size: 3 movers median

What a move this size costs in Southwest Edmonton

Sizes of move cut out of the completed residential jobs in Southwest Edmonton, the communities beside this one. Parkallen has fewer than five of its own at each size, and a band resting on fewer than five moves is not published here at any scope.

A one-bedroom apartment or condo move in Southwest Edmonton

$799
Median, total cost with tax

half fell between $464 and $1,297 · 47 moves

4.25 hours on site half ran 2.88–7.13 hours
2 movers · 1 truck the crew and trucks actually dispatched, median

This card is the southwest Edmonton picture of a one-bedroom apartment or condo move rather than a Parkallen one. Two movers and one truck handle it, and the median job is finished in 4.25 hours on site, with half of the 47 running between 2.88 and 7.13. The $799 median is a total with tax, billed by the hour.

Fewer than five moves of this size here, so these figures come from Southwest Edmonton, across 47 moves.

A two-bedroom apartment or condo move in Southwest Edmonton

$1,082
Median, total cost with tax

half fell between $601 and $1,698 · 41 moves

5.75 hours on site half ran 3.5–7.5 hours
3 movers · 1 truck the crew and trucks actually dispatched, median

A second bedroom's worth of furniture is what separates this from the card above, and across southwest Edmonton it adds a third mover and about an hour and a half: 3 movers, 1 truck and a 5.75-hour median, with half of the 41 jobs running 3.5 to 7.5 hours. The median total is $1,082 with tax. These figures describe a move of this size in the communities beside Parkallen rather than Parkallen itself, and the useful preparation at this size is having the boxes closed before the crew arrives.

Fewer than five moves of this size here, so these figures come from Southwest Edmonton, across 41 moves.

A three-bedroom house or townhouse move in Southwest Edmonton

$1,585
Median, total cost with tax

half fell between $1,031 and $2,191 · 28 moves

8 hours on site half ran 6–9.5 hours
3 movers · 1 truck the crew and trucks actually dispatched, median

A three-bedroom house or townhouse move across southwest Edmonton is three movers on one truck and a median of 8 hours on site. The 28 behind that card ran 6 to 9.5 hours through the middle half and cost $1,031 to $2,191 around a $1,585 midpoint. The money spreads wider than the hours because at three movers the rate per hour is higher, so each extra hour costs more than it would on a smaller crew.

Fewer than five moves of this size here, so these figures come from Southwest Edmonton, across 28 moves.

A four-bedroom-plus house move in Southwest Edmonton

$2,232
Median, total cost with tax

half fell between $1,249 and $2,877 · 12 moves

8.13 hours on site half ran 5.13–11 hours
4 movers · 1 truck the crew and trucks actually dispatched, median

A four-bedroom-plus move is a different kind of day: 4 movers, 1 truck and a median of 8.13 hours on site across southwest Edmonton, with half of the 12 jobs at this size running 5.13 to 11 hours. The hourly rate is the one every smaller job on this page is billed at; what makes the day long is how much of the house is packed before we arrive.

Fewer than five moves of this size here, so these figures come from Southwest Edmonton, across 12 moves.

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!

Nearby and similar neighbourhoods in Edmonton

Parkallen sits inside a set of 54 southwest Edmonton communities with 198 completed residential moves between them: Garneau, Haddow, Terwillegar South, Brander Gardens and the rest around it. Those ran a 4.63-hour median and cost $853 with tax in, half of them falling between $478 and $1,498. Parkallen's own jobs run considerably longer than that, and since the work is billed by the hour, the hours are where the difference shows up rather than the rate.

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.
