Halifax neighborhoods we serve

We move homes, small loads and bulky items across these Halifax neighborhoods. Here is what changes on moving day in each, from stairs and elevators to parking.

North End Halifax

Older houses split into flats, often with narrow interior stairs.

South End Halifax

Student rentals near Dalhousie and Saint Mary's; very busy around September 1.

Clayton Park

Apartment buildings with elevators and parking lots, which makes loading easier.

Dartmouth

Mixed houses and apartments across the harbour; factor in bridge time.

Bedford

Suburban homes and newer condos at the head of the Bedford Basin.

Lower Sackville

Suburban houses and apartment complexes north of Bedford, mostly with parking lots or driveways.

Cole Harbour

Suburban homes east of Dartmouth; factor in bridge or Circumferential Highway time from the peninsula.

Moving in Halifax: what to know before you book

Halifax has its own moving day: September 1, when tens of thousands of university students move at once. Outside that week, a local move is mostly about the harbour (Halifax or Dartmouth side) and the narrow stairs in the peninsula's older houses.

Avoid the September 1 crunch

With more than 30,000 post-secondary students in the city, September 1 is the busiest moving day in Halifax, and trucks and crews are hard to find that week. If your lease allows it, move a few days before or after, and book early if you can't.

Crossing the harbour

Moves between Halifax and Dartmouth use the Macdonald or MacKay bridges, which are tolled, or go around the Bedford Basin. Rush-hour bridge traffic adds time, so a mid-morning start is usually quickest.

Parking on the peninsula

Some residential streets near downtown and the universities are permit-parking-only on weekday daytimes. Check the signs on both streets and plan a legal loading spot before moving day.
