What every move includes
The same careful standard, whatever the size
A one-bedroom move and a full-home move are very different jobs, but the standard behind them is the same. Every TCM Movers move is built on a few core commitments:
- Planning before the truck arrives. We review your home size, access at both addresses, large or delicate items and your timing so the day runs to a plan.
- Careful handling. Furniture is protected as it is moved, carried with attention to walls, floors and doorways, and placed in the rooms you choose.
- Organized loading. Items are loaded in an order that protects them in transit and makes unloading logical.
- Clear communication. You know when we are arriving, what is happening and what comes next.
- A final walkthrough. Before we leave, we check with you that everything is where it should be.
Need extras such as packing help, furniture disassembly or specialty items? Mention them in your quote request and we’ll confirm what’s available.
Local or long distance?
How local and long-distance moves differ
Local moves within Greater Sudbury
Local moves are mostly about access and timing: elevator bookings, parking, stairs, long carries from sloped driveways, and fitting the move between lease dates or key handoffs. Because both homes are nearby, the focus is on an efficient load, a short trip and careful placement at the new address.
Long-distance moves beyond the region
Long-distance moves put more weight on preparation: a complete inventory, protection for a longer trip, a realistic timeline that accounts for the route and season, and clear communication while your belongings are on the road. What travels with you — documents, medications, valuables — matters more too.
Your quote
What shapes the cost of your move
We quote every move individually. These are the details that matter most — the more you share, the more accurate your quote.
Volume
How much furniture and how many boxes you are moving, including storage lockers, basements, garages and sheds.
Access
Stairs, elevators, parking distance, long walkways and steep driveways at both homes.
Distance
Whether you are moving across Sudbury, elsewhere in Northern Ontario or farther.
Date and timing
Month-end dates, weekends and peak seasons are in higher demand, and tight key-handoff windows need extra planning.
Large or delicate items
Oversized furniture, glass, antiques and anything that needs special handling.
Extras you request
Packing help, furniture disassembly and other services you ask about, once we confirm availability.
FAQ
Questions about our moving services
Which moving service should I choose?
Choose by home size if you are moving within Greater Sudbury — one-bedroom, two-bedroom, three-bedroom or full home. If you are leaving or arriving from outside the region, start with long-distance moving. Not sure? Select “Other / not sure” on the quote form and describe your move; we will point you to the right plan.
Is a studio or bachelor apartment a one-bedroom move?
Usually, yes. Studios and bachelor units are planned much like one-bedroom moves. What matters most for your quote is the actual amount of furniture and boxes, plus access details such as elevators and stairs, so describe your home in the quote request.
Do you move single items or partial households?
Tell us what you need moved in your quote request. We will let you know whether it is something we can plan for and confirm availability for your date.
Do you offer packing, storage or specialty-item moving?
If you need packing help, packing materials, furniture disassembly and reassembly, storage between homes or specialty items such as pianos, mention it when you request a quote. We will confirm what is available for your move rather than promise something in advance.
How do you price a move?
Each move is quoted individually based on volume, distance, access at both homes, the date and any extras. A detailed quote request — with your home size, large items and access notes — helps us give you an accurate number.
