In addition, for any move the following preparations are necessary:
Charges for your long distance move in Canada are based on the weight and volume of the items being moved, the distance they are moved, plus optional services such as moving a piano or hot tub. These charges will always be clearly outlined when you are reviewing your estimate with one of our moving specialists.
- Make travel arrangements for you and your family to get to your new residence, perhaps by car or airplane. Pets cannot be transported in the moving van so please include them in your family’s travel plans.
- Research your new city. The internet is an excellent source of city and neighborhood guides.
- Sort and redistribute unwanted items. Many charitable organizations have convenient pick-up services. Holding a garage sale is another popular option. Remember to look through your basement, attic, garage, shed, storage locker, etc.
- Service appliances professionally. Internal damage can be avoided when appliances have been properly prepared for moving. Remember that refrigerators cannot be plugged in for at least one hour after they have been put in their new location to allow the coolant to settle.
- Empty your liquid fuel powered lawn mower, snow-blower and weed trimmer. Flammable, explosive and hazardous materials cannot be transported in the moving van. Please Contact Us regarding any questions about whether or not a material is considered hazardous.
- Non-hazardous liquids will be packed separately and clearly marked so they do not spill and cause damage.
- Take down curtains, blinds, paintings and other items affixed to your walls.

Weekly Departures
Bronte Movers services all major Canadian cities on a regular basis. Our main line is Toronto to Vancouver and vice versa. Trucks generally depart from both Toronto and Vancouver on a weekly basis and arrive at their destination cities in 7-12 days. The reason the trip takes 7-12 days is that they service pick-ups and deliveries along the way, but this transit time is still one of the fastest in the industry.
The frequency of truck departures increases during our busy season from April to November each year.
