Long-Distance Moving FAQs

How can I save money with long-distance movers?

You can save money with long-distance moving companies by scheduling the move in the off-season and selling, donating, and throwing away anything you won’t use in your new home.

How do you plan a long-distance move?

Start planning your long-distance move by contacting Allied. We’ll assign you a personal consultant who can help you create a moving checklist for your move.

When should you start packing for a long-distance move?

Ideally, you should start packing at least six to eight weeks before moving day. You can rent portable storage containers and start packing at your own pace even earlier.

What is the most cost-effective option for long-distance moving?

In theory, the cheapest method for moving is DIY, but it may not be the most cost-effective if you must take time off from work. It will take the average person longer to load and transport their belongings than hiring a professional. Use a long-distance moving calculator to help you determine the actual cost.

What is the first item to pack when moving long distances?

The first item to pack when moving is anything you don’t use regularly. Pack seasonal décor, out-of-season clothing, and other belongings for occasional use before working on your everyday items.

How best to pack for long-distance moving?

The best way to pack for long-distance moving in Canada is to choose an approach that works for you. You may prefer to pack a little at a time, rent a portable storage container, or you might hire professional packers to do the job.

How do long-distance moving companies like Allied determine the cost of a move within Canada?

The cost of your move will depend on your home size, the moving services needed, and the distance. Most long-distance moving companies in Canada charge by the pound. So, if you want to cut costs and save on expenses, consider downsizing before you move.

Are your Canada long-distance movers equipped to handle specialty items or provide storage solutions during a move?

Yes, our long-distance movers in Canada are fully trained, licensed, and certified to relocate bulky or fragile items. We also have storage units available for rent in most major cities in the United States and Canada.
