The cost to move across Canada in 2025 varies widely depending on the size of the home, distance, and services used. Generally, local moves cost between $250 and $4,000, while long-distance moves across provinces can range from about $2,000 up to $16,000. For example, moving a studio apartment cross- country could cost around $3,850 to $4,230, whereas moving a single-family home from Quebec to Vancouver can be between $11,400 and $13,340. Additional services like packing, specialty item moves, and storage add to the costs. Here are some key points and examples:

• Local moves typically range from $250 to $4,000 depending on home size and distance.

• Long-distance moves start at around $2,000 and can go up to $16,000 for large households or longer distances.

• Cross-country moves such as Vancouver to Toronto can cost approximately $6,000 to $11,700 depending on the type of service chosen (truck rental, container, full service).

• Cost examples:
  • 1-bedroom apartment local move: $600-$800
  • 3-bedroom home local move: $1,100-$1,500

This wide range reflects differences in the size of the move, distance traveled, regional cost variations, and optional services selected. Planning a move with multiple moving companies and requesting personalized quotes is recommended for accurate budgeting.
