Some tips on Moving From Montreal
Plan ahead & get rid of clutter
Before anything the best way to save money when moving is to declutter. This is a great time shed all of the “stuff” that you have invariably gathered over the years, and never touch or use. When moving from Montreal most movers will calculate the fees based on the total weight of your shipment, but hourly rates can be offered if your move is very small. The less you carry / the less you need to pay!
Budgeting for the move
Not only do you need to factor in the cost of the move itself it is important that you include funds for your own transport, possible hotels which can get expensive in Ottawa if needed, food, and always keep extra funds allocated for the unexpected at your new home (eg you arrive and your double door oversized fridge does not fit). The cost of living in Ottawa is comparable to Montreal, but can also be significantly less depending on which area you choose.
When to move can matter
Depending on the time of the year you can save money when moving. If you absolutely need to move into your new home on July 1 then costs will invariably be more. Demand for movers in the Montreal region is extremely high during the summer months & should be taken into consideration. Always try to book a move as early as possible to secure the dates that you need.
Be sure to research potential movers!
No matter who you chose as a mover to Ottawa be sure to research your candidates. Check reviews. Be wary of independents who may not have sufficient coverages that may leave you open to actions if there is an accident. Ask for proof of insurance coverage along with WSIB & CNESST.
Without CNESST coverage you can be open to being responsible for any injuries in case of an accident on your property. Always ask for proof!
Moving with King’s Transfer can assist you in simplifying the entire process & dramatically reduce the amount of stress involved.
