Sifton Park is a neighbourhood of renters in low-rise buildings, and that decides the shape of a moving day here more than anything else does. Close to half of its homes are apartments in low-rise blocks and around two thirds of all of them are rented, so a job here usually starts at a shared door on a date set by a lease rather than by a possession day. Somebody other than the person moving controls the entrance, the corridor and the parking outside. That is a conversation to have with the building the week before rather than on the morning itself.
Nothing in Sifton Park is in a building of five storeys or more, so the vertical part of the day is flights of stairs rather than a tower lift, and the distance from the suite door to wherever the truck can stand is what stretches or shortens it. The figures below come from the ring of northeast Edmonton communities Sifton Park sits inside.
Moving costs around Sifton Park, by the numbers
That ring is 29 northeast Edmonton communities with 85 completed residential moves between them. Belvedere, Parkdale, Clareview Town Centre, Delwood, McCauley and Alberta Avenue are among them. The middle job cost $676 with tax in and ran 3.75 hours on site; half took between 2 and 5.25 hours and half cost between $435 and $1,055. Small jobs made up 78% of the sample. It is a modest set, so read it as a range rather than as a quote.

How much does it cost to move in Sifton Park?
The median residential move across the northeast Edmonton communities around Sifton Park is $676, total cost with tax, and half of those 85 jobs fell between $435 and $1,055. What moves a Sifton Park job inside that band is the door more than the address: the rate is hourly, so time spent holding a shared entrance open counts the same as time spent carrying.
-
What does it cost to move out of an apartment in Sifton Park?
An apartment move is billed from the same hourly rate as a house move and usually costs less, because a smaller load is fewer hours: 78% of the work in the surrounding communities was graded small, and close to half of Sifton Park's homes are low-rise apartments. The saving comes from the size of the job rather than a different rate. What adds hours back is waiting on a shared entrance, which is why the building is worth calling first.
-
How long does a move in Sifton Park take?
The middle job across the 85 nearby moves ran 3.75 hours on site, and half of them took between 2 and 5.25 hours. That is a short day, which is what low-rise apartments and small households produce. Because the rate is hourly, those hours are the bill.
-
Do you charge for travel time to Sifton Park?
No. Travel time within city limits is not charged, so a Sifton Park move is billed for the hours the crew is actually working. There is no deposit on a local move and no fuel surcharge either; the rate in the agreement is the whole of it.

Sifton Park neighbourhood guide for moving day
Two lines on this panel change what a crew needs to know in advance. The first is tenure: with roughly two homes in three rented, the door, the corridor and the parking are usually somebody else's to open, so the building is worth calling before the date rather than on it. The second is the kerb. Edmonton issues an On-Street Construction and Maintenance permit for a vehicle that has to occupy the roadway; it carries no fee at present and takes around 6 business days to process, with low-impact work asked to apply a minimum of 6 working days ahead.

Great moving company! I would highly recommend and would definitely use them again. Took care with mats on floor and quickly wrapped tv and other breakable items. Showed up on time and worked hard the entire time. Quote was very accurate and reasonable. Professional and fast!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I had an amazing experience with Cactus Moving! From the very first call to the final handshake, everything was smooth, professional, and stress-free. The movers showed up on time, fully uniformed, and worked quickly while still being careful with my furniture.

We used these guys to move us from Edmonton to Calgary. They are the only company who had a great price and didn’t consolidate items. Also they delivered the same day! Absolutely fantastic! We will be moving again this month within Calgary and I defined will use them again. They gave us real cactus!

I had an absoloutely astonishing experience with Cactus moving. When I was looking for a moving company I couldn't find another moving company with as many amazing reviews as Cactus has. The man (i can't remember his name) on the phone was both professional and friendly.
