    Kensington Market Moving Tips and Local Planning Notes



  • The "Stair" Factor: Many Victorian homes and multi-unit dwellings in Kensington Market have multiple levels and very narrow, sometimes winding, staircases. Most movers charge their standard hourly rate, but the move will take longer if there are many stairs. Always mention the number of flights when booking.


  • Parking Considerations: Given the extreme density and pedestrian-first nature, contacting the City of Toronto for temporary "No Parking" signs or understanding specific loading zones is crucial. Street parking permits are often required, and vehicle access is severely restricted on some streets during market hours.


  • Tight Turns: Many historic homes and shops in Kensington Market can have exceptionally tight entryways, narrow hallways, or challenging staircase turns. Measure your doorways and ensure larger furniture can pass or be disassembled/reassembled by professionals.

Get Movers Toronto ON applies these same Kensington Market planning steps—tight access, unique layouts, and parking coordination—backed by insured moves, “Guaranteed Protection” policy, written estimates, transparent hourly pricing, and Not-to-Exceed options (when eligible).
