Households in Pleasant View are on the large side, and that is the clearest signal on this page about how a moving day here runs. More people to a home means more rooms in use and more to carry out of them, and it is the reason a job here is more likely to be a family house being emptied than a single room. The housing backs that up: semi-detached and detached homes together account for most of it, owners heavily outnumber renters, and the middle home dates from the 1961-to-1980 band, old enough that the layouts are compact and the staircases are the route everything takes. There is a real share of apartment stock too, and those jobs run on a booked lift instead.
The measured figures below widen out to the northeast Toronto communities this neighbourhood belongs to.
Moving costs around Pleasant View, by the numbers

The band is 43 northeast Toronto communities and 88 residential moves between them: a $662 median with tax, a middle half of $488 to $1,208, 3 hours on site at the middle and a middle half of 3 to 5.25 hours. 77% graded small and 22% medium.

How much does a move in Pleasant View cost?
$662 with tax at the middle of 88 residential moves across the northeast Toronto communities around Pleasant View, with half of them between $488 and $1,208. The rate is hourly and the same for every size of home. What changes is the hours, and with 73% of homes here owner-occupied the local jobs tend to be fuller ones.
-
Is a Pleasant View move usually a house?
More often than not. 34% of homes are semi-detached, 19% are single-detached and 27% sit in a building of five storeys or more. The semi is the common case, so expect a staircase, a shared wall and a frontage where the truck has to fit alongside a neighbour's car.
-
How long does a move in Pleasant View take?
3 hours on site at the middle of the 88 pooled jobs, with half of them between 3 and 5.25 hours and 77% graded small. Households here hold 2.8 people, so a local job is usually a family home rather than a studio. The basement and the garage are where an underestimate normally happens.
-
Which neighbourhoods are the Pleasant View figures from?
Forty-three northeast Toronto communities that touch one another, Pleasant View included, and the 88 completed residential moves between them. Banbury-Don Mills accounts for 18 of those, Thorncliffe Park 11 and Bayview Village 10. A median for this boundary alone would rest on too few jobs to be honest.
-
Is there a busier month for moving in Pleasant View?
August, at 18 completed moves across the surrounding communities, then June at 10 and February at 9. None of them is priced differently, because the rate is hourly whatever the date. With 73% of homes owned here, the calendar mostly follows closings.

Pleasant View neighbourhood guide for moving day
Two entries do the work here. Households are large and most of the housing is ground-related, which means more boxes and more stairs than an apartment job and an honest planning assumption of a longer day than the 3-hour class median. The other is the quarter or so of homes in buildings of five storeys or more, where a booked lift and a booked loading bay replace the driveway as the thing that sets the pace, and where the building rather than the crew decides how early a day can start. Toronto has published no position on a moving truck at the curb, so 311 is the check to make for a house address.

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.

I deal with a lot of movers and see them do their job. Today I saw Alex,Nicole and Andrei of Cactus Moving do a pretty heavy duty move for one of my clients. I must say they did the move so smoothly and with a smile.

I'm in the midst of a renovation job and needed to empty my house after 25 years of living there. After 3 weeks of purging and packing, my partner went on a quest to find a mover. One of the self-storage facilities that she spoke to recommended Cactus.
