What a local move costs in Toronto
The middle local move in Toronto came to $709. Half cost less than that, and the middle half fell between $519 and $1,145.
That move billed 3.5 hours with a crew of 2, which is what the hourly rate above adds up to on a real day.
Read the smallest rows with their counts beside them. A middle taken over a few dozen jobs moves with the jobs, and we publish it as measured rather than smoothing it.
Figures from 206 local moves in Toronto, updated September 1, 2026. Medians and quartiles of what we invoiced, tax in, never averages. A local move is one whose pickup and at least one drop-off are both in Toronto.
| Home size | Middle move | Middle half fell between | Moves measured |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 bedroom | Middle move $710 | Middle half fell between $516 to $955 | Moves measured 65 |
| 2 bedroom | Middle move $1,007 | Middle half fell between $584 to $1,436 | Moves measured 38 |
| 3 bedroom | Middle move $1,241 | Middle half fell between $680 to $2,145 | Moves measured 9 |

What to Expect From Cactus Moving
Our senior moving process is built to eliminate stress and create a predictable, comfortable, and well-coordinated moving experience.
-
Step 1. Move Planning
We begin with a detailed conversation to understand your moving timeline, health considerations, home layout, building rules, and any sentimental items requiring extra care. We review access conditions and coordinate logistics with family members when requested.
-
Step 2. Personalized Quote
We prepare a personalized quote outlining crew size, estimated hours, included protections, and your preferred arrival window. No mileage, fuel, or travel fees apply within Toronto or the GTA, and pricing is explained clearly to avoid confusion.
-
Step 3. Packing (if requested)
Packing and Moving Preparation (if requested)
If packing is needed, our trained team brings all materials and prepares everything for transport. We carefully pack fragile items, photo albums, kitchenware, antiques, and heirlooms using proven protection methods. This step ensures everything is organized and easy to place in your new home.
-
Step 4. Moving Day
Moving Day With Cactus Moving
Our senior moving crews arrive on time with tools, blankets, straps, and safety materials. We protect doorways, hallways, floors, and elevators before lifting anything. Furniture is wrapped securely and moved with controlled handling whether you are transitioning to a condo, apartment, assisted living facility, or a family member’s home.
-
Step 5. Final Walkthrough
We complete a gentle, patient walkthrough to make sure everything is placed exactly where you prefer. Beds are assembled, furniture is positioned, and boxes are stacked neatly so you can settle in without lifting anything after we leave.
-
Step 6. Payment
Payment is made only after all work is complete and everything meets your expectations. We take time to review the final setup with you or a family member to confirm satisfaction and ensure nothing has been missed. The goal is comfort and clarity at the end of every senior move.
-
Step 7. Thank You Gift
Cacti New Home
With every completed move, we leave a small cactus in your new home. This is more than a gift. It is a symbol of our story as a family business and a reminder of resilience, strength, and new beginnings. It represents the care and heart we bring into every Toronto senior move.
