Halifax is 1,800 km from Toronto, and the route crosses four provinces. That's not a weekend rental-truck job. It takes planning, the right equipment, and someone who's done it before. We have. Over 15 years and thousands of long-distance moves across Canada, we've handled everything from a studio apartment in the Annex to a four-bedroom house heading to the South End of Halifax. Same care either way.

North York → Halifax
We had a few days between vacating our old condo in North York and receiving keys for our new condo in the south end of Halifax. The free month of storage we received from High Stream was a great help as we were able to take our time finding a way to move into our new place without having to rush or incur additional costs. The moving crew were quick, professional, and kept us up to date regarding the move every step of the way. Halifax was a big move for our family, but they made it easy to adjust.
Toronto → Halifax
I have moved long-distance three times now, and this latest move was by far the easiest. The people at High Stream came to our condo before the move to do a video walkthrough and provide an estimate on cubic footage, and the amount quoted was the amount charged. The crew who unloaded the truck in Halifax were the same people who loaded it in Toronto; this was something I was not expecting. Our items arrived in the same condition they left. High Stream is a reputable and trustworthy moving company.
The distance is 1,800 km. That's a long trip, and the price reflects it. But it also reflects exactly what you're getting — a trained team, a proper truck, insurance coverage and a flat rate based on your actual inventory, not a rough guess, with transparent pricing around real moving costs.
Costs vary based on the size of the move and services needed.
| Move Size | Approximate Cost (CAD) |
|---|---|
| Studio or 1-bedroom apartment | from CAD $1,000 |
| 2–3 bedroom apartment or house | from CAD $2,500 |
| 4+ bedroom house | from CAD $4,008 |
| Car shipping (add-on) | CAD $1,500 – $2,000 |
All quotes are flat-rate and based on your item list. The price we give you before the move is the price on the invoice after, though additional services like packing, storage or vehicle shipping will affect the final quote.
High Stream Moving is proud to offer moving from Toronto to Halifax and all across the Greater Toronto Area.
Halifax has much more reasonable prices than Toronto whether you're renting or buying, although the housing market is still competitive and prices are rising quickly. A single-family home in Halifax averages somewhere in the high $500,000s, compared with about $1.1M in Toronto.
Access to beaches and coastal nature right from your doorstep is fantastic in Halifax, including spots like Crystal Crescent Beach and the many places along the Historic Waterfront.
Halifax's cost of living runs roughly 15% lower than Toronto's, making it an attractive alternative for buyers leaving the Toronto area.
While Toronto is the major economic centre of Canada, Halifax has abundant employment in health care, education, ocean technology, and an increasingly robust tech industry, all underpinned by a longstanding strong job market.
The average commute in Halifax is under 30 minutes, giving residents more free time to spend with the people who matter to them.
With a population of around 440,000, Halifax is big enough to offer virtually anything you want, but small enough that you actually know your neighbours. That slower, more family-oriented pace can be a real draw for people coming from large urban centres.
A few things to sort out once you arrive — none of it complicated, but worth lining up early:

Toronto → Halifax
I had no idea what to expect from such a long move when I moved from Toronto to Halifax in September, but High Stream did a great job taking care of everything we needed moved. They packed all of our kitchen items and any items that could break prior to moving them into the truck. When the truck arrived in Halifax four days later, all of our items arrived in one piece. The cost quoted to us was the same cost we paid for the service. There were no phone calls from the movers asking for more money during the move. I would use them again without any hesitation.
