Movers in Loyalist, Ontario
Zero Hour Moving helps families in Loyalist Township, from Amherstview, Bath and Odessa to the smaller hamlets in between and across the water on Amherst Island. With Kingston next door, a ferry to the island and new homes going up in Odessa, moves here range from short local hops to trips that need careful scheduling.
Loyalist is part of Lennox and Addington County. Our crews move people across the whole region.
Loyalist Township movers, from Amherstview to Amherst Island
About four in five homes in Loyalist are detached houses, and the large majority have three or more bedrooms, so most moves here are full family households with basements and garages to empty. More than half of the homes were built before 1981, which means plenty of older layouts with narrower stairways and lower basement ceilings than newer builds, and we plan which pieces come apart before the crew starts lifting. Rentals and condos are both uncommon here, so apartment moves are a small part of the picture, although small units in Amherstview and Odessa still turn over regularly.
Highway 401 crosses the township, while the Loyalist Parkway follows the Lake Ontario shore through Bath to Amherstview, so most addresses are easy to reach by truck. Amherst Island is the special case: it is reached by a car and truck ferry from Millhaven to Stella, so island moves are planned around the crossing and the space on board, and there is no popping back for a forgotten box. On the mainland, Odessa is in the middle of a building boom that is set to roughly double the village over time, which means new streets, fresh driveways and builder rules to check before possession. Homes along the parkway and on rural lanes may need a word about parking when you book.
We work across the township, in Amherstview, Bath and Odessa as well as Millhaven, Wilton, Switzerville, Morven, Stella and the other smaller communities. Kingston is roughly 23 km away and Greater Napanee is right next door, so short moves either way are easy to arrange, and we also cover Deseronto, Stone Mills, South Frontenac and Prince Edward County. Toronto is roughly 219 km away, and we handle moves to other provinces as well. Ask for a quote and we will plan the details with you.

At a glance
Moving in Loyalist at a glance
What the local housing and moving patterns mean for your move, in plain terms.
HomesMostly detached houses
About 4 in 5 homes in Loyalist are single-detached houses. Most moves here are full-house moves with basements, garages and sheds, so we plan for a larger truck and a crew of three.
OwnersMostly homeowners
About 6 in 7 households own their home. Most moves are planned around closing dates, and short-term storage helps when the dates do not line up.
Home agePlenty of older homes
More than half of all homes were built before 1981. Older homes often have narrower stairs and doorways, so we plan disassembly and wall protection before moving day.
Moving activityAn active moving market
About 2 in 5 residents lived at a different address five years earlier. Weekend and month-end dates fill up first, so reserve your date as soon as it is firm.

Local know-how
How our services work in Loyalist
House Movers Loyalist
About four in five Loyalist homes are detached houses, most with three bedrooms or more. Our crews bring enough truck for a whole household and plan around basements, garages and any long driveway or rural lane.
Furniture Movers Loyalist
Houses built in the 1960s and 1970s make up a big share of Loyalist's housing, and their stairwells can be tight for today's sofas. We wrap, disassemble and reassemble pieces so they fit without damage.
Office Movers Loyalist
From businesses in Odessa to offices in Amherstview and Bath, we pack equipment and records, label everything clearly and set up your new space so staff can get back to work with minimal disruption.
Inter Provincial Movers Loyalist
Some Loyalist residents arrive from other provinces, and others leave for one. For moves out of Ontario, we prepare an inventory, pack fragile items properly and keep you updated until delivery at your new home.
Piano Movers Loyalist
Moving a piano to or from Amherst Island takes extra planning around the ferry, and mainland homes have their own stairs and tight turns. We bring piano boards, straps and padding, and a crew trained for the job.
Man With A Van Loyalist
For a single room, a small apartment in Amherstview or a few pieces going to Kingston, our van service is the right size. It also suits students heading to college or university in Kingston.
Cleaning Services Loyalist
Selling a family home in Bath or Odessa? We scrub kitchens and bathrooms, wash floors and wipe out cupboards so buyers walk into a fresh house, and new builds get a move-in clean before your furniture arrives.
Single Item Movers Loyalist
Need a dresser picked up in Kingston or a table delivered to a cottage on Amherst Island? We handle single items across Loyalist Township, wrapped, secured and carried to the room you choose.
Last Minute Movers Loyalist
If a closing date moves up or a rental ends early, call us. We will check which crews are available and, for island moves, what the ferry allows, then give you a clear answer.
Storage Services Loyalist
Building in Odessa or waiting on a closing in Amherstview? We can store your furniture safely and deliver it once your new Loyalist home is ready, which helps when sale and possession dates do not match.
Specialty Movers Loyalist
Hot tubs, safes and workshop machinery need extra hands and the right gear. We plan the route across your Loyalist property and, for Amherst Island, the ferry crossing as well.
Pool Table Movers Loyalist
Pool tables have to be broken down before they can leave a basement or games room. We remove the slate carefully, protect the felt and rails, and rebuild and level the table in your new Loyalist home.
Condo Movers Loyalist
Condos are rare in Loyalist Township, but if you are moving from a house here into a condo in Kingston or elsewhere, we reserve the elevator, pad the hallways and work within the building's move rules.
Packing & Unpacking Services Loyalist
Packing a three- or four-bedroom house takes planning, and island moves leave no room to come back for a forgotten box. Our packers label by room, wrap fragile items well and load the truck in order.

New builds in OdessaOdessa is seeing a wave of residential development. If you are buying on one of the new streets, ask your builder where a truck can park on possession and whether the road is finished.

FAQs
Questions about moving in Loyalist
Straight answers about booking, pricing and what happens on moving day in Loyalist.
Can you move us to or from Amherst Island?
Yes. The island is served by a car and truck ferry between Millhaven and Stella, so we plan the move around the crossing. Tell us your island address, driveway details and preferred dates early. We pack and load so everything goes over in one organized trip, with no need to come back for forgotten items.
Do you move people into new homes in Odessa?
Yes. Odessa is growing fast, with new residential development expected to roughly double the village over time. For a new build, check with your builder about access roads and parking on possession, and let us know if the driveway is unpaved. We will choose a truck that suits the site.
How far is Loyalist from Kingston, Ottawa and Toronto?
Kingston is roughly 23 km away, Ottawa roughly 156 km and Toronto roughly 219 km. We move families to all three, as well as to other provinces. Longer trips take more coordination, so reach out early with a list of what is moving and your target dates, and we will prepare a clear quote.
How much do movers cost in Loyalist?
Local moves in Loyalist are billed by the hour for the crew and truck plus a flat travel fee. The total depends on the size of your home, the access at both ends, the date and any packing or specialty items. Long-distance moves are quoted as a fixed price. Every quote is free and written.
Can you move me from Loyalist to another province?
Yes. We run scheduled long-distance routes from Ontario to British Columbia, Alberta, the Prairies, Quebec and the Maritimes. Moves from Loyalist are quoted as a fixed price with a confirmed delivery window.
Do you offer packing and storage in Loyalist?
Yes. Professional packing with all materials included, and secure storage with pickup and redelivery, can be added to any move in Loyalist.
Are your Loyalist movers insured?
Yes. Every move includes basic liability coverage, and full replacement-value protection can be added. We send certificates of insurance to condo and apartment buildings on request.
