How long does a move in Mimico-Queensway take?

3.5 hours on site at the middle of the 6 jobs recorded inside the boundary, which is exactly the middle across the surrounding communities as well. Half of the local ones ran between 3 and 5.88 hours, and 83% graded small. Two movers is the median crew, and the middle half of those local jobs used two.

Which kind of home is a Mimico-Queensway move usually in?

The housing splits three ways: 30% detached houses, 30% low-rise apartments and 23% in a building of five storeys or more. The low-rise third is the one to check, because a lift is not guaranteed and there is often nowhere for the truck but the street. In the towers the building books both the lift and the loading area.

What does a one-bedroom move around Mimico-Queensway cost?

$744 at the median across 37 one-bedroom jobs in the surrounding southwest Toronto communities, with half between $573 and $1,138 and a middle day of 3.5 hours on two movers and one truck. It is the likeliest size here, given that 38% of households are one person, but it is a figure from the neighbourhoods next door rather than from this one.

Do you charge for travel time to Mimico-Queensway?

No. Travel inside city limits is not billed, there is no deposit on a local move and no fuel surcharge, so the invoice is the hours worked at the two addresses. Packing help and bin rental are available and quoted separately when you want them.

Movers in Mimico-Queensway: what we know about moving here

Mimico-Queensway splits three ways, which changes what a booking here can be assumed to be. Detached houses and low-rise apartments hold roughly equal shares of the stock and towers take much of the rest, while tenure divides close to evenly, so lease dates and closing dates both set the calendar. There is no single kind of move in this neighbourhood. There are three, and which one you have decides the shape of the day.

The jobs recorded inside this boundary bear that out. At least 6 residential moves since 2025, a median crew of 2 movers, 83% of them graded small, and a median of 3.5 hours on site with the middle half running 3 to 5.88. A tight median with that much spread behind it is what a mixed neighbourhood produces: a small apartment with a clear route out finishes in a morning, and a house with stairs and a full basement does not. The cards below price a move by size across the wider southwest, since too few of each size sit inside this boundary to carry a band.

Mimico-Queensway neighbourhood guide for moving day

This panel is really three moving days. On the detached side the work is a staircase, a front door and wherever the truck can legally stand. On the low-rise side it is often stairs again, since a lower building is less likely to have a lift. In the taller buildings it is an elevator window and a loading bay reserved with management ahead of the date. Small households are the thread through all three, which is why two movers cover most of the work. For the street side, Toronto has published no rule about a moving truck at the curb, which makes 311 the number for your own block.

Mimico-Queensway moving costs, by the numbers

At least six residential moves carry a Mimico-Queensway address at one end since 2025, which is a floor rather than a total and too thin to price from. No cost median is published for this neighbourhood alone, so the figures under the cost heading are the surrounding ones. What the six do settle is the shape of the work: a median crew of two movers, half of the jobs running between 3 and 5.88 hours on site, and the middle one closing at 3.5.

What a move this size costs in Southwest Toronto

Sizes of move cut out of the completed residential jobs in Southwest Toronto, the communities beside this one. Mimico-Queensway 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 Toronto

$744
Median, total cost with tax

half fell between $573 and $1,138 · 37 moves

3.5 hours on site half ran 3–5 hours
2 movers · 1 truck the crew and trucks actually dispatched, median

Mimico-Queensway holds fewer than five one-bedroom moves of its own, so this card is the 37 at that size across southwest Toronto. Two movers, one truck, a 3.5 hour middle day with half of them between 3 and 5 hours, and a $744 median with the middle half at $573 to $1,138. Three homes in ten here are low-rise apartments, where the stairs decide the day, and another 23% are in a building of five storeys or more, where the lift does.

Fewer than five moves of this size here, so these figures come from Southwest Toronto, across 37 moves.

A two-bedroom apartment or condo move in Southwest Toronto

$1,056
Median, total cost with tax

half fell between $683 and $1,501 · 25 moves

5.75 hours on site half ran 4.25–6 hours
2 movers · 1 truck the crew and trucks actually dispatched, median

Two bedrooms doubles the day and not the crew: 5.75 hours on site at the middle of 25 southwest Toronto jobs, half of them between 4.25 and 6 hours, still two movers and one truck. The bills ran a $1,056 median with half between $683 and $1,501. Mimico-Queensway has fewer than five moves of its own at this size. In a walk-up the second bedroom adds trips up and down the stairs rather than space in the truck.

Fewer than five moves of this size here, so these figures come from Southwest Toronto, across 25 moves.

A four-bedroom-plus move in Southwest Toronto

$1,162
Median, total cost with tax

half fell between $822 and $1,420 · 6 moves

5.75 hours on site half ran 3.63–6.56 hours
2 movers · 1 truck the crew and trucks actually dispatched, median

At four bedrooms and up there are six moves across southwest Toronto and none published for Mimico-Queensway, which holds fewer than five that size. Those six ran a $1,162 median, a middle half of $822 to $1,420, two movers and one truck, and 5.75 hours at the midpoint with half between 3.63 and 6.56. With a sample that small the useful figure is the width rather than the middle. A home that size here is a detached house, which is 30% of what stands in the neighbourhood.

Fewer than five moves of this size here, so these figures come from Southwest Toronto, across 6 moves.

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.
