Local details matter
A Newmarket move often involves more coordination than a simple house-to-house job. For closing-day moves, the time keys are released and the time the destination is ready to receive furniture are often hours apart. Both have to be in the plan before the crew is dispatched. For Yonge corridor apartments, elevator bookings, loading dock access and the building's move-in rules all need to be confirmed with management in advance.
For suburban Newmarket homes in Woodland Hill, Glenway or Stonehaven, the inventory should include the garage, basement storage and any garden equipment. Wide houses on newer lots often have finished lower levels with heavy furniture that takes as much planning as the main floor. Stairs, door widths and driveway access all matter — a wide driveway does not guarantee truck turning space.
Newmarket's heritage corridor mixes Victorian and Edwardian homes with ground-floor commercial. Parking is actively managed along this stretch. Check posted restrictions and the town's parking page before arranging a curbside loading position — commercial trucks are treated differently from passenger vehicles.
Mid-rise apartments and condos line the Yonge Street spine from Mulock Drive to Davis Drive. Many buildings have a managed loading dock and a booked service elevator. Obtain the available window, the dock address and any building move-in rules from management before confirming the arrival time.
Established west-Newmarket neighbourhood of two-storey detached homes built from the 1980s onward. Upper-floor bedrooms, finished basements and loaded garages are the norm. List all three areas in the inventory and photograph the driveway including its slope and turning space for the truck.
Newer subdivisions east of Leslie Street with larger family homes and wide lots. Many have double or triple garages with significant stored contents. A full-home move here typically needs a 26 ft truck and a three-person crew — confirm volume before assuming a smaller setup will work.
Older bungalows and split-levels north of Davis Drive, many with significant basement storage accumulated over decades. Measure the stair turn and the tightest doorframe before deciding what can stay assembled for the move.
Newer townhouse developments and detached homes near Mulock Drive and the GO Station area. Some complexes have rear-lane or shared driveway access — confirm the truck entrance and whether the lane accepts a full-sized moving truck before the move date.
Crew size, furniture disassembly and stair access planned around both addresses.
Coordinate elevator windows, loading bays and the carry from truck to door.
Declare heavy or awkward pieces early so the right equipment and crew can be assigned.
Before the truck arrives
Care in the details
Photos from G&T jobs show wrapping, loading and access methods. They are not all confirmed as taken in this city.
01Furniture and mattresses are wrapped in plastic film before they move — it protects the item, and it protects the walls, railings, and door frames it passes on the way out.
02Colour-coded room stickers go on at the loading end, so at the destination every piece goes straight to its room instead of being put down and moved a second time.
03The crew is our own. Your move is not handed to a third-party labour agency, and the owner works the job, so there is always someone accountable on site.
Clear answers
Rates, local coverage and practical details to help you plan.
Read the full pricing guide →Newmarket moves are billed hourly for the crew and truck together, starting at $100 per hour for two movers with a truck and $60 per hour for a single mover with a pickup. Every job has a 2-hour minimum, then bills in 30-minute increments, plus a fuel and travel surcharge. Newmarket is our northernmost regular service area, so the travel component is slightly higher than for Aurora or Richmond Hill moves. Larger Stonehaven or Woodland Hill homes typically need three movers and a 26 ft truck.
Yes, but the plan has to account for two separate timings: when keys are released and when the destination is ready to receive furniture. Those can be hours apart on a closing day. Tell us both expected windows when you book so the crew schedule is built around the real sequence, not an assumed immediate handover.
For buildings with a managed service elevator, yes. Obtain the available time window, the loading dock or rear entrance address, and any building move-in rules from management before confirming the move. A missed or unboooked elevator window can delay an entire move.
Yes, when declared in advance. Provide the storage facility address, the unit access rules and an inventory of what needs to be picked up or dropped off there. An undisclosed storage stop changes the time estimate and may affect crew and truck availability for the rest of the job.
Main Street is a heritage commercial corridor with actively managed parking. A loading position needs to be agreed on in advance — the nearest empty spot may not be legal for a commercial truck. Check posted signs at the property address and the town's parking page, and give the crew a confirmed position rather than asking them to find one on arrival.
Yes. Newmarket to Aurora is a short Yonge Street run; Newmarket to Richmond Hill is straightforward on the 404 or Yonge corridors. Provide both addresses and full access details so we can confirm the route, travel surcharge and crew requirements for both ends of the move.
