Job ID: JAN2908152026 ( Residential Relocation ) - What This Move Involved
Get Movers Halifax NS establishes itself as a reliable moving company in the HRM by executing precise logistics for this delicate downsizing operation. This residential move from Brightwood to Shannon Park focused on sorting and efficient handling during typical January coastal conditions. Moving trucks parked near the Dartmouth Common dispatch area were deployed at 08:00 AM to ensure movers reached the Brightwood residence on Woodland Ave on time for the 08:15 AM start.
The move progressed smoothly, navigating the sloping streets of Brightwood, utilizing Victoria Rd to connect towards the MacKay Bridge approach, and entering the Shannon Park area via Iroquois Dr. All items were loaded in a logical order to prioritize the downsizing plan, separating donation items from core furniture. Despite the damp ambient temperature of -8°C, we activated our 'Thermal Shock Protocol,' using heavy-duty wool blankets inside the heated home before exiting to prevent antique varnish from cracking due to rapid thermal contraction in the Atlantic winter air.
Efficient Downsizing Strategy
Planning for Brightwood's larger family layouts allowed our team to help the client sort items room-by-room, ensuring only the essentials were packed for the cozier Shannon Park home.
Careful Furniture Protection
All larger household pieces were fully wrapped with robust protective padding inside the home before loading, ensuring safe transit without damage during the drive across Dartmouth.
Logical Loading Order
Items were loaded in a specific, logical order to keep unloading simple and efficient, ensuring priority cartons remained accessible at the new home near the harbour.

What Our Client Said About This Move
"Get movers handled a pretty wild one-day move for us from one house into three separate apartments and they absolutely nailed it. The planning ahead of time was solid, and the way they adjusted on the fly was just as impressive. Once things got going, it became clear there were way more heavy pieces than expected (we’re talking seriously heavy) plus steep stairs for two of the drop-offs. While those were still being unloaded, they quickly adapted and sent extra help and another truck back to the house so the third place could be handled without slowing everything down. The movers Glen, Bob, and Luis worked insanely hard and fast the entire day, but somehow stayed upbeat and genuinely nice the whole time. No frustration, no attitude, just steady effort and good energy. Pricing felt fair for how complex the day was, and I wouldn’t hesitate to hire Get movers again in a second. Huge thanks to everyone who made this work."
