Movers in Palmerston, Ontario

Zero Hour Moving helps households moving to, from and within Palmerston, the community of about 2,600 people at the south end of Minto, in Wellington County. Many homes here are older detached houses and plenty of residents rent, so we plan for steep stairs, apartment moves and runs to Listowel, Harriston and beyond.

Palmerston is a community within Minto, part of Wellington County.

Palmerston movers for older homes at Minto's south end

The housing figures on this page come from the census for the whole Town of Minto, which takes in Palmerston, Harriston, Clifford and the surrounding countryside, rather than Palmerston alone. Across Minto, detached houses make up about four in five homes, and roughly two in five homes were built before 1961, so a typical move involves an older house with a basement, narrow stairs and doorways that need measuring before big furniture moves, so we pad railings and trim before the first piece comes out. Renting is fairly common too, mostly in low-rise apartment buildings, so one-bedroom moves timed to lease dates are a regular part of the work alongside full-house moves.

People move here often: about two in five Minto residents had changed address within five years of the last census, and plenty of them arrived from other parts of Ontario, which brings longer moves into town as well as local hops between Palmerston, Harriston and Clifford. Palmerston has both an elementary school and a high school, Norwell District Secondary School, which makes it practical for families with children of any age; if you are moving with kids, a summer date keeps the school year intact. For homes on the rural roads around Palmerston, let us know about laneways and turning space so we send a suitable truck.
