    Specific Tips for Canterbury Moves



  • The "Stair" Factor: Many rental units and split-level homes in Canterbury feature stairs. Most movers charge their standard hourly rate, but the move will take 20% longer if there is no elevator. Always mention the floor number when booking.


  • Parking Permits: While not a restricted zone, you may need to contact the City of Ottawa for temporary "No Parking" signs or a permit for the moving truck, especially if you are on a busier street like Alta Vista Drive or Heron Road.


  • Tight Turns: If you live in an older bungalow or split-level home, measure your doorways and staircase turns. Some homes may have narrower entries that could require professional "sofa hoisting" or disassembly.

Get Movers Ottawa provides all of these professional protections, logistical planning, and parking coordination at an affordable price, ensuring your Canterbury move remains in your budget.
