This was my first big move and I was nervous, but Zero Hour Moving made it painless. Booking was quick, the crew showed up on time, and nothing was scratched. Five stars from me!

Ontario to Newfoundland Movers: Fixed Prices, Confirmed Delivery Windows
Distance~3,100 km
Route typeCross-country route
PricingFixed price after inventory
DeliveryConfirmed window before booking
Relocating from Ontario to Newfoundland covers roughly 3,100 kilometres. Zero Hour Moving runs this route on a schedule, quotes it as a fixed price after a short inventory and confirms your delivery window before you pay a deposit.
Moves to St. Johns, Mount Pearl, Corner Brook and Gander include the Marine Atlantic ferry crossing from North Sydney to Port aux Basques or Argentia. We coordinate the sailing so your goods arrive together and on schedule.
Because of the ferry and the drive across the island, Newfoundland has the longest delivery window on our eastern routes. We confirm it before you book and update you at each stage.
Every Ontario to Newfoundland move includes a numbered inventory, tie-down loading, shipment updates from your coordinator and a delivery crew that unloads to the right rooms and rebuilds your furniture. Packing, custom crating, vehicle transport and storage in transit can all be added to the same quote.
Good to know: every Ontario to Newfoundland move is quoted as a fixed price after a short video inventory, with the delivery window confirmed before you pay a deposit.

FAQs
Questions about this route
Straight answers about timing, pricing and what happens on the road.
How long does it take to move from Ontario to Newfoundland?
It depends on the route, the season and whether you choose a dedicated truck or a consolidated load. Dedicated trucks are faster; consolidated loads are more economical. We confirm your delivery window in writing before you book.
How much does it cost to move from Ontario to Newfoundland?
The price depends on the volume of your goods, the distance and the services you choose, such as packing, crating or storage. Every Ontario to Newfoundland move is quoted as a fixed price after a short inventory, and that price does not change unless the inventory does.
How far in advance should I book?
The earlier the better, especially for summer and month-end dates, so we can complete the inventory, reserve truck space and confirm the delivery window. Short-notice moves are possible depending on availability. Call (519) 731-2317 to check dates.
Is my shipment shared with other customers?
You can choose a dedicated truck carrying only your goods, or a consolidated load that shares truck space at a lower price. Either way every item is inventoried, tagged and sealed.
Do you provide insurance for the move to Newfoundland?
Basic liability coverage is included and full replacement-value protection is available and recommended for multi-day transit to Newfoundland and Labrador.

Yes. Open or enclosed vehicle transport is scheduled to arrive within a day of your household goods.
