Office and Commercial Movers

A commercial move is a scheduling problem wearing a furniture problem's clothes. The office starts from the leaving date, the arriving date and the building rules at both ends, then works out how many movers it takes to fit the load into the window that both landlords will actually release. Most offices move on an evening or across a weekend for exactly that reason.

On the day the crew works to a labelling plan rather than to instinct: every desk, chair, pedestal and box carries the room or the person it belongs to, so unloading puts things where they are wanted rather than in a pile by the lift. Workstations and desks come apart and go back together. Screens and equipment are wrapped and boxed, and filing cabinets travel loaded where the cabinet and the route allow it.

Commercial work is hourly, at a rate that follows the crew and the truck, with a minimum that is often longer than a residential one because an office move is booked into a fixed access window. Larger relocations are quoted after a walk through, since desk count and floor plan tell the office far more than square footage does.

One operations fee covers the coordination around the job. There is no fuel surcharge, no mileage and no travel time charge within city limits. Out of hours and weekend work is scheduled rather than surcharged as an emergency, and the estimate you approve is written before the date is held.

Each branch publishes its hourly rates and minimums, which is the frame a quoted office move is built on.

Mississauga has 7 local moves on record, and this table publishes a price at 30 or more, so that row carries its count and no figures. A spread taken from that many jobs would look like a measurement and read like a guess. What is firm at any sample size is the hourly rate card, and every city page below publishes it.

Totals are what Cactus invoiced, in Canadian dollars with tax in, for moves whose pickup and at least one drop-off were both inside the city. Medians and quartiles, never averages, winsorised at the 5th and 95th percentile so one unusual job cannot move a band. Storage and packing materials are billed on their own agreements and are outside these totals. Measured August 30, 2026.
