A Burlington moving company run by the family that started it
Our trucks and storage sit at 5035 North Service Road, just off the QEW. So a Burlington move starts close to our yard, whether you’re in Aldershot, Alton Village, Millcroft, the Orchard, Headon Forest or a condo downtown.
Jeff Richardson and Chloe Poirier run the company, and Jeff still quotes most jobs himself. We also move families across Oakville and Hamilton.
Moves for houses, condos, seniors and offices
Most of our work is local, inside Halton and Hamilton. We also plan long-distance moves that start here. We move pianos. We don’t move large safes.
Local home moving
Houses, townhouses and condos. We book the elevator with your building, pad the walls and take beds apart and put them back.
Senior moving and downsizing
Moving a parent into a condo or retirement residence, with storage for the pieces that don’t fit yet. Antiques and china get packed by hand.
Office and commercial moves
Tell us the day you need to reopen and we plan backwards from it. Furniture or stock can wait in storage if the new space isn’t ready.
Packing and storage
Closing dates don’t line up? Your things wait in our Burlington storage, same address as the trucks. We sell boxes and tape too.
What happens after you call
No call centre. The person who answers works here.
Tell us what's moving
Call or send the quote form. Give us the addresses, the date and the big items, like a piano or a sectional.
Get a written price
For a full house we walk through it first, so the quote matches the job. Insurance coverage can be added for $90 to $150.
Moving day
The crew shows up on time, protects floors and elevators, and sets the furniture up in the new place before leaving.
Burlington, Oakville and Hamilton
We stay close to home so crews aren’t stuck on the 403 all day.

“In the last 5 years I have used Appleby Moving & Storage 5 times… Nothing broken in any of the moves (my mother had a lot of antiques and crystal).”
“Jeff, the owner, was extremely pleasant and professional. He was upfront about pricing… they even ensured the elevator was fully protected before moving items in.”
“We required a 2 part move with half travelling to our cottage and half to our new home… Significant care of our property seemed second nature.”

What people ask before booking
How much does a local move in Burlington cost?
Our average local move runs $900 to $1,500. The date matters most: summer and month-end cost more. Then it’s how much you have, what it is, and how far it’s going.
Do you move pianos?
Yes. Tell us the type and whether there are stairs when you ask for a quote. We don’t move large safes.
Are my things covered if something gets damaged?
We’re fully insured, and you can add extra coverage for $90 to $150 depending on the move. Jeff will explain the options when he quotes.
What if my closing dates don't line up?
We load your things, keep them in our Burlington storage for as long as you need, and deliver when the new place is ready.
