Job ID: JAN2908302026 ( Residential Relocation ) - What This Move Involved
Get Movers London ON defines the standard for reliable moving services in London by executing precise logistics for this residential home relocation. This move from Masonville to Old North focused on efficient handling during typical January winter conditions. Moving trucks parked near the Masonville Place parking lot were dispatched at 08:15 AM to ensure movers reached the residence on Sunnyside Dr on time for the 08:30 AM start.
The move progressed smoothly, navigating the snowy roads of Masonville, utilizing Richmond Street to connect southward, and entering the Old North community via Cheapside St and St. George St. As soon as we reached the Masonville home, it was clear one large piece placed near the main entry needed attention before anything else could move. A tall wooden storage hutch was tucked beside the front hallway divider, leaving only a narrow space to guide it forward. We wrapped the hutch fully, reinforced each corner, and used a slow lift-and-pivot technique to move it safely into the open area without touching surrounding walls. Despite the ambient temperature of -8°C, we maintained a consistent workflow to ensure the client's delicate glass dessert plates and furniture arrived safely.
Efficient Hallway Navigation
Our team identified the tall wooden storage hutch near the entry as a priority, using a slow lift-and-pivot technique to clear the narrow space beside the divider without touching the walls.
Delicate Glass Protection
Fine glass dessert plates with lightweight rims were individually wrapped in cushioned sleeves and placed upright in reinforced divider crates to ensure zero damage during the drive.
Clean Loading Pattern
Once all items were padded and labeled, our crew organized the truck in a balanced loading pattern, ensuring a smooth drive to Old North and efficient unloading at the new location.
GPS Route Track - Job ID: JAN2908302026
GPS Track: Utilizing Richmond Street to connect Masonville to Old North ensures a direct and ploughed route for heavy trucks during winter conditions, minimizing transit time for sensitive items.

Winter Weather Management
Operating in January, our crew was prepared for London's cold temperatures, using floor runners to protect the Masonville home's flooring from snow and salt during the loading process.
Old North Positioning
Upon arrival at the new location, we positioned the truck carefully to minimize the carrying distance to the home, allowing for the steady unpacking of the dessert plates and hutch placement.
Calm & Steady Handling
Despite the winter chill, our movers maintained a calm, steady handling pace, prioritizing the safety of the reinforced divider crates containing the fine glass plates.
How we handled it
Once the initial walkthrough of the Masonville residence was complete, our movers focused on the unique challenges presented by the entryway hutch and the delicate kitchenware.
Protection & packing
- Specialized Glass Care: Inside the kitchen, each delicate glass dessert plate with a lightweight rim was wrapped individually in cushioned protective sleeves and placed upright inside reinforced divider crates.
- Hutch Wrapping: The tall wooden storage hutch was fully wrapped and its corners reinforced before being moved from its tight spot near the front hallway divider.
- Floor Protection: Neoprene runners were utilized to protect the hardwood floors from winter salt and slush during the loading process in Masonville.
Moving method
- Lift-and-Pivot Technique: For the hutch tucked in the narrow entry, we used a slow lift-and-pivot technique to guide it safely into the open area without touching surrounding walls.

What Our Client Said About This Move
"Very responsive, reasonably priced, on time, and professional Getmovers made the whole thing easy. This move was in London, near Old South, and I noticed right away that they wrapped all of my furniture and higher-value items with blankets and plastic wrap without me needing to ask. That attention alone took a lot of stress off me. There was a small communication challenge at times, but it never became an issue. My roommate was able to help clarify a few things when needed, and everything still moved along smoothly. Any questions that came up were handled quickly and calmly. The work itself was solid, careful, and efficient. I felt like my belongings were genuinely being looked after, not just moved as fast as possible. I’d definitely use GetMovers again if I need to move in the future."
