Movers in Yonge-Eglinton: what we know about moving here

The middle residential move recorded inside Yonge-Eglinton's own boundary ran 3 hours on site, and so did both ends of the middle half of them, with the crew sitting at 2 movers at the midpoint and at either quartile. Five jobs is a short record and the outer quarters are not published, but the middle of it is as tight as it looks.

The neighbourhood itself is more mixed than that. Two homes in five are in a building of five storeys or more, a quarter are apartments in low-rise buildings and nearly a quarter are single-detached houses; most of the housing is rented rather than owned, and the middle home dates from 1961 to 1980. So a booking here might be a tower unit, a walk-up or a house, and which of the three it is changes the day more than the address does. It is worth saying which when you call.

Yonge-Eglinton neighbourhood guide for moving day

Three kinds of address share this neighbourhood, and each wants something different. Two homes in five are in a building of five storeys or more, where the lift and the dock are held in advance by property management. A quarter are low-rise apartments, where the stairs are the route and there may be nothing to reserve at all. Nearly a quarter are detached houses, where the driveway and the basement set the pace instead. Telling us which of the three you are leaving is the most useful thing you can do at booking. Parking is unresolved in writing either way: no City page addresses a moving truck at a residential curb, and 311 is the way to find out about yours.

Most homes in Yonge-Eglinton were built 1961 to 1980

Yonge-Eglinton moving costs, by the numbers

These 5 moves are the household jobs Cactus has completed with a pickup or a drop-off inside Yonge-Eglinton since 2025. The count is a floor rather than a settled total, and the band publishes no price because five jobs cannot carry one. Both figures it does publish held the same value at the quartiles as at the midpoint: 3 hours on site and a crew of 2. That mostly says the five were close in size to one another.

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. Yonge-Eglinton 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.

  • 3.75 hours on site half ran 3–5.25 hours
  • 2 movers · 1 truck the crew and trucks actually dispatched, median

Yonge-Eglinton has fewer than five one-bedroom jobs of its own, so this card takes the 45 recorded at that size across Southwest Toronto. Two movers, one truck, 3.75 hours on site at the middle with half between 3 and 5.25 hours, and a middle bill of $769 with half falling between $573 and $1,138. In a boundary where 41% of households are one person, this is the common size. Whether the route out is a lift or a walk-up staircase decides which end of the band a day lands at.

Fewer than five moves of this size here, so these figures come from Southwest Toronto, across 45 moves.

  • 2 movers · 1 truck the crew and trucks actually dispatched, median

Two bedrooms is the longest card on this page: 5.75 hours on site at the middle across Southwest Toronto, with half of the 26 at that size running between 4.56 and 6.94 hours, on two movers and one truck. The middle bill was $1,093 and half fell between $790 and $1,689. Fewer than five of that size have been recorded inside Yonge-Eglinton. A second bedroom in a low-rise here usually means a second flight as well.

Fewer than five moves of this size here, so these figures come from Southwest Toronto, across 26 moves.

  • 3.88 hours on site half ran 3.56–4.94 hours
  • 2 movers · 1 truck the crew and trucks actually dispatched, median

Read this card against its sample rather than against the one above it. Only 6 three-bedroom jobs sit behind it across Southwest Toronto, and they ran shorter and cheaper than the two-bedroom set: 3.88 hours on site at the middle with half between 3.56 and 4.94, and $761 in the middle with half between $694 and $1,121. On six jobs the midpoint is noise and the spread is the figure. Two movers and one truck covered them.

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

The four-bedroom-plus card also rests on 6 jobs across Southwest Toronto, none of them inside Yonge-Eglinton. Two movers and one truck, 5.75 hours on site at the middle with half of the six between 3.63 and 6.56 hours, and $1,162 in the middle of the bill with half between $822 and $1,420. At this size the day is decided before the crew arrives: how much of the house is boxed, and whether it is coming down a staircase or out through a lift.

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

How much does it cost to move in Yonge-Eglinton?

Five local jobs cannot carry a price median, so the figure to plan against is $736, the middle of 159 moves across the 55 southwest Toronto communities around the boundary, with half between $541 and $1,202. What the local record does support is duration: the middle day ran 3 hours on site on a crew of 2.

  • What does a one-bedroom move around Yonge-Eglinton cost?

    $769 across Southwest Toronto, with half of the 45 at that size between $573 and $1,138, on two movers, one truck and 3.75 hours on site. Yonge-Eglinton has fewer than five of its own that size. With 41% of homes holding one person, it is the size most bookings here resemble.

  • How long does a move in Yonge-Eglinton take?

    3 hours is the middle of the 5 moves recorded inside the boundary, and both ends of the middle half sat at 3 hours as well. Five jobs is why it reads that flat. Across the surrounding southwest Toronto communities the middle day was 3.5 hours, with half between 3 and 5.5.

  • Is a rented apartment move different from a house move in Yonge-Eglinton?

    Three kinds of address share this boundary: 40% in a building of five storeys or more, 24% in low-rise flats and 23% detached. A tower needs a lift and a dock booked from management; a walk-up needs neither and gives you stairs; a house gives you a driveway and a basement. Say which when you call.

  • Does the time of year change what a move costs in Yonge-Eglinton?

    No. The hourly rate is the same in any month. June, March and April carry the most of the 159 moves recorded across the surrounding communities, which is a count of completed work rather than a price signal. The load and the route out are what move your own figure.

With five local jobs and no local price, the band that answers the money question is the ring: 55 southwest Toronto communities carrying 159 moves, a middle bill of $736 with tax in and a middle day of 3.5 hours, with half the work between $541 and $1,202. Fort York-Liberty Village holds 10 of those, Annex, High Park North and South Eglinton-Davisville 9 each, then Alderwood and Etobicoke City Centre at 8 apiece. 79% graded small and 20% medium. It is a planning range for a Yonge-Eglinton address rather than a price for one.

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.
