Real Move from Chinatown to Parkdale (Toronto) By Get Movers

Job ID: JAN2209152026 ( Apartment Relocation ) - What This Move Involved

This apartment move from Chinatown to Parkdale involved navigating the unique architectural constraints of downtown Toronto. Get Movers moving trucks, parked at the nearby Green P on St. Patrick Street, were dispatched at 08:35 AM to navigate the morning Spadina traffic and reach the Huron Street residence for a 08:45 AM start. Our movers began with a detailed walkthrough to assess the "Thermal Shock Protocol" required for moving antique marble into the -8°C winter air.

The move progressed efficiently, exiting the dense urban layout of Chinatown, turning onto Dundas Street West, and heading towards the Victorian streetscapes of Parkdale via Queen Street West. The primary challenge involved a heavy marble-top side table positioned beside a narrow balcony doorway, which required disassembly and a specialized lift-and-shift technique. This level of local precision is why Get Movers remains a trusted name in Toronto. Every fragile glass ornament arrived intact at the new Cowan Avenue home.

Efficient Urban Access

Planning for Chinatown's high density, our truck was positioned to maintain flow on Huron St, allowing for swift loading of the marble table while respecting local traffic.

Marble & Glass Protection

The marble tabletop and fragile glass ornaments were wrapped in shock-resistant sleeves and thermal blankets to prevent damage from both impact and winter temperature shifts.

Controlled Delivery

Items were reassembled and placed with care in the new Parkdale home, ensuring the marble table was perfectly positioned away from drafty windows as requested.

Services used on this move

For this Chinatown to Parkdale apartment relocation, our movers used a focused combination of services to safely manage fragile glass and heavy marble in a dense urban setting.
