Movers in Newmarket, Ontario

From four-bedroom houses to rental apartments, Zero Hour Moving handles moves of every size in Newmarket, the York Region town at the top of the Yonge Street corridor. Established neighbourhoods sit alongside townhouses and growing pockets of higher-density housing near Yonge and Davis, and about a quarter of households rent, so no two jobs here look quite alike.

Newmarket is part of York Region. Our crews move people across the whole region.

Newmarket movers for York Region houses, townhouses and condos

About three in five Newmarket homes are single-detached houses, many with four or more bedrooms, so a lot of our jobs here are big family moves that call for a full crew and a large truck. The rest of the town is a real mix of semi-detached houses, townhouses, duplexes and apartments, which means plenty of moves involve shared walls, tight stairwells and parking that has to be worked out ahead of time. Around one household in four rents, so lease-end moves come up often, and a smaller apartment can usually go in a compact truck. Much of the housing dates from the later decades of the last century, so most homes are straightforward to work in, though older streets near the historic downtown can bring narrower stairs and smaller doorways.

Highway access is good, with Highway 404 along the east side of town and Highway 9 linking west to Highway 400, while Yonge Street and Davis Drive carry much of the local traffic. On Davis Drive, buses run in their own centre lanes between Yonge Street and Southlake, so we plan stops and turns along that stretch carefully. The Town is steering new growth toward the Yonge and Davis area, the hospital district, Yonge Street south of Green Lane and the historic downtown, which means more apartment buildings with elevator bookings and loading rules. If you are decluttering first, donate good furniture where you can; York Region's waste facilities accept many bulky items, and the Region notes that curbside pickup may also be available through the Town. Check the Town of Newmarket and York Region websites for current details.

Our crews serve the whole town, from Bogarttown and the Armitage area to the streets around Fairy Lake and Main Street. Short moves to Aurora, East Gwillimbury, King and Whitchurch-Stouffville are common, and Richmond Hill, the nearest large centre, is just down Yonge Street. Toronto is roughly 45 km away, and nearly one in four residents is a recent arrival from another part of Ontario, which makes trips between Newmarket and the city a regular part of our week. We also handle long-distance moves to other provinces. Share your dates and addresses, and we will send you a quote.

At a glance

Moving in Newmarket at a glance

What the local housing and moving patterns mean for your move, in plain terms.

HomesA mix of houses and apartments

About 3 in 5 homes are detached houses, about 1 in 5 are townhouses or semis, about 1 in 5 are apartments. We match the crew and truck to your type of home rather than sending a one-size-fits-all team.

RentersA busy rental market

About 1 in 4 households rent, which makes the last days of each month the busiest time to move. Booking early gives you the widest choice of dates.

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.

CondosAbout 1 in 12 homes is a condo

Condo moves need elevator bookings and a certificate of insurance for property management. We send the certificate and size the crew to finish inside your booking.

Household sizeFamily-sized households

The average household here has 2.9 people, so most moves include several bedrooms of furniture and a full kitchen to pack.

Local know-how

How our services work in Newmarket

House Movers Newmarket

Many Newmarket houses have four or more bedrooms plus a basement and garage. We plan the crew and truck around the full house, protect floors and railings, and pack the truck so the unload goes smoothly.

Furniture Movers Newmarket

From sectionals in big family homes to compact pieces in townhouses with tight stairs, we wrap, disassemble and reassemble furniture so it reaches the right room in your new Newmarket home in good shape.

Office Movers Newmarket

Newmarket has a solid mix of offices, health care services and public sector employers. We move desks, files and IT equipment in a planned sequence, with labels by room, so your team can settle in quickly.

Inter Provincial Movers Newmarket

A small share of Newmarket residents arrive from other provinces, and some head out again for work or family. Our long-distance crews plan the whole move, from inventory and packing to transport and delivery across Canada.

Piano Movers Newmarket

Pianos in Newmarket often sit in the living room of a two-storey home or a townhouse basement. We move them on a padded piano board with straps, planning each turn on the stairs before anyone lifts.

Man With A Van Newmarket

For a basement apartment, a one-bedroom rental or a few items heading to Aurora, a smaller truck with two movers is often all you need. With a quarter of households renting, these moves are common here.

Cleaning Services Newmarket

With many leases turning over in Newmarket, a move-out clean helps renters hand back a tidy unit and helps sellers prepare for the final walk-through. We can also clean the new home before you move in.

Single Item Movers Newmarket

Found a dresser in Richmond Hill, or need a sofa taken to East Gwillimbury? We pick up single pieces and small loads in and around Newmarket and deliver them blanket-wrapped and strapped.

Last Minute Movers Newmarket

Leases and closings do not always line up. If your plans change suddenly, call us with your Newmarket address and home size, and we will see which crews are open and be upfront about the options.

Storage Services Newmarket

When a lease ends before your new place is ready, or a sale and purchase close on different dates, your furniture can stay with us in secure storage until the Newmarket home is ready for it.

Specialty Movers Newmarket

Gun safes, home gym machines and hot tubs turn up in plenty of Newmarket houses. Tell us about them early so we arrive with the right dollies and enough people, and plan a path through gates, side yards and basement stairs.

Pool Table Movers Newmarket

Pool tables often end up in the basements of Newmarket's larger houses. We take the table apart, wrap the slate and cloth, carry it out carefully, and reassemble and level it at your new home.

Condo Movers Newmarket

About one in twelve Newmarket homes is a condo, and more apartment buildings are planned in the central growth areas. We book elevator time with management, pad walls and floors, and follow each building's move-in rules.

Packing & Unpacking Services Newmarket

Our packers handle full family homes or just the kitchen, china and artwork. Every box is labelled by room, which matters when you are moving into a busy townhouse or a condo with limited elevator time.

FAQs

Questions about moving in Newmarket

Straight answers about booking, pricing and what happens on moving day in Newmarket.

How do moves into apartments near Yonge and Davis work?

Most buildings ask residents to book the elevator and loading area in advance. Reserve your slot with management, send us the building's move rules, and tell us where the truck can park. We protect the elevator, hallways and doorways, and load the truck so items come off in a sensible order.

What should we do with furniture we are not taking?

Donate pieces in good shape where you can. York Region's waste facilities accept many bulky items, and the Region notes that curbside pickup may also be available through the Town of Newmarket. Rules change, so check the Town and Region websites before you put anything out, and tell us early which items are staying behind.

Do you move people from Newmarket to Toronto or Richmond Hill?

Yes. Richmond Hill, roughly 21 km down Yonge Street, is a short hop, and Toronto, roughly 45 km, is one of our most frequent runs by Highway 404. Before the day, we confirm elevator bookings and parking at the new address, then load so the things you need first come off the truck first.

How much do movers cost in Newmarket?

Local moves in Newmarket 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 Newmarket to another province?

Yes. We run scheduled long-distance routes from Ontario to British Columbia, Alberta, the Prairies, Quebec and the Maritimes. Moves from Newmarket are quoted as a fixed price with a confirmed delivery window.

Do you offer packing and storage in Newmarket?

Yes. Professional packing with all materials included, and secure storage with pickup and redelivery, can be added to any move in Newmarket.

Are your Newmarket 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.
