One year ago, Aaron Parker, the owner of Parker’s Moving contacted our team to join our network of experienced movers. We were hesitant to meet with him at the time. His Toronto-based moving company was newly founded, making it difficult to establish customer satisfaction.
It took us one call to be mesmerized by Parker’s Moving ethic, business culture, and passionate approach to moving. As we write these lines, Parker’s Moving built a solid reputation with 5 stars over 218 Google reviews.
Specializing in larger moves, it has full-service movers conducting moves within 50 km of Toronto, including Mississauga, Burlington, Oakville & Oshawa. The company even offers full coverage health insurance to their workers, which is uncommon in the moving industry.
Please note that Parker’s Moving does not offer long-distance outside of Ontario. Also, the 4 hours minimum time to perform the job does not make them your best option for a small move.

There are many mover services in the Greater Toronto area that can help you move into your new property. Any of these companies cover the most popular areas from Downtown Toronto, Liberty Village, The Beaches, Yorkville, and Scarborough Village or anywhere in Ontario. To get the best price, our research and verifications have established this listing of the best moving companies in GTA. If you do not find what you are looking for in this list, you should know that the city of Toronto has other well-rated moving companies to offer.
For example, you could investigate movers like Cargo Cabbie, Rent-A-Son or AMJ Campbell who can also help you move your furniture from your elevator in Toronto to your new home in Mount Pleasant or simply give you a hand with your piano down the stairs.
BBB stands for Better Business Bureau and is a North American organization whose mission is to help buyers and sellers trust each other. Its rating is based on the number of complaints that a company may receive and how the company handles these complaints. We aim to recommend companies with a minimum rating of A- or higher.
CAM stands for Canadian Association of Movers. It is Canada’s only trade association for movers whose goal is to help its members evolve in the industry, while setting a standard of ethics and practices for moving companies. While it is a great way to gain credibility, not all moving companies are part of CAM.
The author of this article also acts as MovingWaldo’s booking agent. Matt, is an accomplished relocation specialist with over 6 years of experience in the industry. Matt has earned a CAM certification (Canadian Association Of Movers), Tariff Certification (Atlas Van Lines), and has an extensive business background. Before handing off everything you own, do your due diligence… or let Matt do it for you.
Provide Matt with your move criteria. He will calculate quotes from verified movers, using the same metrics. This will make it simple to compare and book your move.
Hourly pricing is the most commonly used pricing model. It’s simple, the company will provide you with an hourly rate and charge you based on the time it takes to complete your move. The more prepared you are, the less it will cost.
In your quote, movers will provide you with an estimated labor time, so they can precisely estimate the final cost.
Services considered in the labor time:
To cover travel time and fuel, movers may charge you for the time it takes them to drive to and from their office. Alternatively, they may charge a pre-established truck fee, which will be based on the distance to be driven and the size of the truck.
Certain services are included in the final price such as: basic insurance (release value protection), moving blankets, moving equipment and sometimes wardrobe boxes.
All moving companies have diverse fee-related policies. Generally, there is an added cost to your moving bill for packing and unloading specialty items. This is due to their fragility, which requires extra protection. It is also due to their weight, which requires more workers. Additionally, they may take up extra space in the truck which could end up requiring an additional truck.
The moving company may charge extra fees for heavy items like sports equipment and appliances. Extra fees may be charged for stairs above the second floor or overnight or storage fees if the move is not finished in one day. Also, fuel fees could apply, especially for longer distances.
There are two types of moving insurance protections: release value protection and full value protection.
Release value protection covers the damages happening in the moving truck and can cover $0.60 per pound of the damaged item. The cost is typically included in the price and there is no deductible.
Whereas, full value protection applies to damage done in the moving truck and in your home. This can cover anywhere between $5 to $10 per pound of the damaged item. Expect to pay at least a few hundred dollars for full value protection and know that there is a deductible and that it will vary.
The Highway Traffic Act obliges the City of Toronto to allow the parking of moving trucks on the street as long as they are loading or unloading. Yet, they must still comply with parking and traffic regulations on the street signs.
If you are parking a moving container, a temporary street occupation permit will be needed to keep the equipment on the road or boulevard.
