OUR MOVING SERVICE REVIEWS IN Halifax NS

Get Movers Halifax NS is Reviewed and recommended by thousands of satisfied Customers, please read their reviews on different sources

I recently moved from Halifax to Dartmouth, and I can honestly say this was the smoothest move I’ve ever had. Get Movers showed up right on time — Evan and Scott were super professional, courteous, and efficient. My apartment had lots of fragile items, awkward boxes, and heavy furniture, but they handled everything perfectly.
They wrapped every item with care, labeled boxes neatly, and even helped me reorganize a few things at the new place. What impressed me most was how they worked as a team — fast but never careless. They finished earlier than expected, which gave me extra time to settle in without feeling rushed.

Luffy Kun

As a newly arrived in Halifax, we thought it’d be better to get professional help on our first moving experience. We contacted a few moving companies and decided Get Movers since it offered the most competitive price. Highly recommended for : 1. No hidden fees. 2. Courteous and friendly guys. 3. Real quick moving out of the old residence and into the new one, finishing up on time. 4. Guys knew the corners and handled furniture and appliances safe and sound. We did our part by moving small items in advance as my new residence was vacant and the landlord company was generous enough to grant us access before the actual moving date. Anyway, thanks to Michael and Mustafa for the real pleasant experience and kudos to Get Movers.

Yongsik Shin

I got referred to Get Movers by a coworker for my Halifax to Bedford move, and they were excellent. Liam and Noah arrived on time, wrapped all my furniture carefully, and handled everything efficiently.

Suprem

I requested quotes from three different moving companies, and GetMovers gave me the best price. I hired them for my move from Halifax Westmount Subdivision to Downtown Halifax. It was just a one-bedroom move, and their rate was very reasonable even with the 3-hour minimum. Our movers, Victor and Alex, were awesome,fast, efficient, and careful with all our stuff. We started at 10 AM and finished around 2 PM. Overall, I’m really happy with the service. I definitely recommend GetMovers if you need a moving company in Canada. You won’t be disappointed!

HOW DOES OUR HALIFAX PRICING WORK SO YOU DON’T GET BURNED?

Most Halifax local moves fall in the $85–$150/hour range, depending on crew size, building access, distance, and timing. Weekdays and mid-month moves are usually more affordable, while weekends, month-end, and peak summer season typically cost more.

SEASONALITY & TIMING

  • PEAK SEASON (MAY–AUG) Rates often rise 15–30% due to increased demand, especially during Halifax’s busy summer moving season and student moves.
  • WEEKENDS (FRI–SUN) Many movers add $10–$20/hour compared to mid-week pricing.
  • LOW SEASON (SEP–APR) A 2-mover crew can sometimes fall around $85–$110/hour, depending on availability and weather conditions.
  • MONTH-END The busiest moving dates — schedules fill quickly and prices are typically higher.

COMMON FEES & HOW WE QUOTE

  • TRUCK / TRAVEL FEE Often $75–$250 one-time, depending on distance, parking access, and logistics.
  • MINIMUM BOOKING Usually a 3-hour minimum with reputable Halifax moving companies.
  • SPECIALTY ITEMS Safes, pianos, oversized appliances, or fragile items may add $100–$400+ per item, based on complexity.
  • PACKING HELP Typically $40–$70/hour per packer, plus packing materials (boxes, wrap, tape).

Affordable Halifax Moving Costs

Below we have real-world price ranges based on typical local Halifax moves. Final pricing depends on timing, access, and what you're moving.

Property Size Avg. Duration Movers Price Range
1-Bedroom Apartment 4 Hours 2 $600–$850
2-Bedroom Apartment 6 Hours 2–3 $750–$1,050

HOW WE KEEP YOUR PRICING PREDICTABLE (NO SURPRISES)

Halifax movers can feel expensive, but the real issue is uncertainty. Here’s how we keep it fair:

  • Realistic Halifax hourly rates (no bait pricing) — If you see “$40/hr miracles,” it usually means corners are being cut: no proper insurance, rushed crews, or surprise charges later.
  • All-inclusive quotes where it makes sense — We build estimates that include the real basics, so you’re not hit with a new charge for every staircase, parking issue, long carry, or roll of wrap.
  • Clear written estimates before moving day — You’ll know what’s included, what isn’t, and what could affect the final price (extra flights of stairs, long carries, specialty or heavy items).
  • Straight talk on timing and budget — If your move falls on a Halifax peak date (summer, month-end, weekends, or student move-in periods), we explain upfront how that impacts pricing — and what cheaper date options look like.
  • No hostage tactics. Ever. — We don’t play games where your belongings “can’t be delivered” unless you pay extra. Pricing is explained clearly in advance and confirmed in writing.

We aim for that feeling of choosing to pay a little more for a well-established Halifax moving company — because you know you’re getting real value, proper coverage, and peace of mind.

FAQ – Moving in Halifax & HRM

Look for movers who give detailed written quotes, clearly list what’s included, and are willing to talk through extra charges before move day. Be careful of ultra-low offers, especially if the company can’t explain how they pay staff or maintain trucks at that rate.
Yes. If you’re a broke college student or a new grad who thinks “$2,700 is way too expensive for me,” tell us exactly what you’re moving and how far. We can often suggest a smaller crew, shorter booking, or off-peak slot that keeps the cost down while still giving you professional help.
Absolutely. Many people say “not looking for them to pack for us, just move locations.” We can do load–transport–unload only. Packing is optional, not mandatory.
Yes. We handle many moves organized by adult children for their parents. We plan around comfort, communicate clearly, and make sure the new home is set up with bed, seating, and essentials first.
You want a mover with proven long-distance experience, clear timing, and transparent pricing. Ask each company how they pack, how they handle delays, and whether they’ve done that route before. If you’d like, we’ll explain exactly how our long-distance Halifax team works and what your specific move would look like.
That’s a very normal Halifax move. Whether you’re going from Spryfield to the North End, Clayton Park to the South End, or Bedford to Dartmouth, we plan crew and timing so you’re not overpaying for a simple “just drop everything off 10 minutes away” move.
