Movers in Banbury-Don Mills: what we know about moving here

Banbury-Don Mills is two neighbourhoods inside one boundary. Just over half of its homes are apartments in buildings of five storeys or more, and a little under a third are single-detached houses. That is a lobby, a service lift and a bay held by the building on one side of the road, and a driveway, a front staircase and nothing to reserve on the other. Owners are in the majority even though most of the homes here are apartments, so the dates follow closings as readily as lease ends.

The record inside the boundary is steadier than that mix suggests. At least 18 residential moves since 2024, 10 of them in the last twelve months, a 3-hour middle day, and half of them finished inside 4.19 hours. What varies is the crew rather than the clock: 2 movers at the median, but a middle half running from 1 to 3. Prices follow the short days: $599 in the middle of the 11 priced jobs, against $665 across the surrounding communities.

Banbury-Don Mills neighbourhood guide for moving day

The apartment majority is what sets the short middle day: a compact load, a booked lift, a bay held by the building, and two movers. The detached share is the other end of it, with stairs, a driveway, and often the third mover that shows up in the crew spread. With owners outnumbering renters, more of this work is tied to a closing than to the end of a lease. The curb only matters on the house side, and there the City publishes no rule about a moving truck parked outside a home, so 311 answers it street by street.

City of Toronto

Toronto publishes no page that covers a moving truck at the curb, and its Street Occupation Permit names moving containers only. Confirm with 311 whether your street needs a permit.

Banbury-Don Mills moving costs, by the numbers

These cover residential moves with a Banbury-Don Mills address at either end since 2024. At least 18 qualify, which is a floor rather than a count, and 10 of them fell in the last twelve months, an exact figure. Eleven carried a price, giving a $599 median with half between $537 and $1,249, tax included. The hours sit tight around the middle: 3 at the median, half of them inside 4.19, on a crew that runs 2 at the median and 1 to 3 across the middle half.

What a move this size costs in Northeast Toronto

Sizes of move cut out of the completed residential jobs in Northeast Toronto, the communities beside this one. Banbury-Don Mills 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.

half fell between $545 and $1,192 Ā· 23 moves

  • 5 hours on site half ran 3ā€“6.25 hours
  • 2 movers Ā· 1 truck the crew and trucks actually dispatched, median

This card is northeast Toronto rather than Banbury-Don Mills, because the neighbourhood has fewer than five one-bedroom jobs of its own. Across 23 of them nearby the middle bill was $852, with half between $545 and $1,192, and the day ran 5 hours on site with half from 3 to 6.25. Two movers and one truck. With 53% of homes here in a building of five storeys or more, the lift and the walk out to the loading spot are most of those hours.

Fewer than five moves of this size here, so these figures come from Northeast Toronto, across 23 moves.

half fell between $574 and $1,437 Ā· 9 moves

  • 4.75 hours on site half ran 3ā€“6.75 hours
  • 2 movers Ā· 1 truck the crew and trucks actually dispatched, median

Nine two-bedroom moves in the northeast Toronto communities beside Banbury-Don Mills is a thin card, and the figures show it: $1,326 in the middle, but a middle half running all the way from $574 to $1,437. The day is 4.75 hours at the midpoint, half of them between 3 and 6.75, on two movers and one truck. Read the band rather than the middle number, and expect the packing to decide where inside it your own day lands.

Fewer than five moves of this size here, so these figures come from Northeast Toronto, across 9 moves.

  • 3.5 hours on site half ran 3ā€“5.25 hours
  • 2 movers Ā· 1 truck the crew and trucks actually dispatched, median

Five three-bedroom moves is the shortest card on the page and the figures under it are a direction rather than a price: $680 in the middle across northeast Toronto, half between $487 and $1,114, and 3.5 hours on site with half from 3 to 5.25. Two movers and one truck. That it reads under the two-bedroom card is what five jobs do to a median, not a statement that a bigger home costs less.

Fewer than five moves of this size here, so these figures come from Northeast Toronto, across 5 moves.

How much does it cost to move in Banbury-Don Mills?

$599 is the middle, tax included, across the 11 priced moves inside this boundary, with half of them between $537 and $1,249. That sits close to the $665 middle across the 76 residential moves in the surrounding northeast Toronto communities. The rate behind both is hourly, set by how many movers and how big a truck the job takes, and stated in the agreement before anyone lifts anything.

  • How long does a move in Banbury-Don Mills take?

    Three hours on site is the middle of the 18 jobs recorded here since 2024, and half of them finished between 3 and 4.19 hours. That is a tight band by the standards of this record, and it fits the housing: 53% of the homes are in a building of five storeys or more and 72% of the jobs graded small, so a typical day is a lift, a corridor and a single load.

  • Why is the one-bedroom card higher than the three-bedroom one?

    Because both are small samples borrowed from northeast Toronto: 23 one-bedroom moves against 5 three-bedroom ones, and five jobs cannot hold a median still. The $852 and the $680 are not a price list, and nothing in the way Cactus bills makes a smaller home cost more. Their bands, $545 to $1,192 and $487 to $1,114, overlap almost completely, which is the more useful reading.

  • What is a Banbury-Don Mills move usually like?

    A tower job more often than a house one. 53% of the homes here are in a building of five storeys or more, 28% are single-detached, and 36% of households are one person. That is why the middle crew is two movers and the middle day is three hours. Where the address is one of the detached houses, expect a longer day and a third mover to earn its place.

  • Do I need a permit to park a moving truck in Banbury-Don Mills?

    Toronto publishes nothing that covers a moving truck at the curb; its street occupation permit is written for moving containers. So the answer is a call to 311 about your own address. For a tower here the building matters more anyway, since the lift window and the loading bay are booked with the superintendent rather than with the City.

Ask Toronto in person, or price the move yourself in a minute.

    A short poetic piece. It's outrageous, outrageously grand! With Alexei Y. 's beard and Nikita Ch. 's smooth hand, They whisked my world from old house to new, Not a scratch on a lamp, not a wrinkle in view.

Figures come from Cactusā€™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.
