Acreage movers deal with everything a city crew never sees. Gravel roads, quarter-mile driveways, and outbuildings full of heavy gear change the whole job. The counties around Edmonton are full of properties exactly like that. Here is how we plan a country move so nothing surprises anyone.
A House Move Plus a Property Move
City moves empty one building. Acreage moves usually empty three or four. The shop, the garage, and the shed hold as much weight as the house does. We walk the whole property during your estimate, not just the kitchen. That way the crew size and truck size match the real job.
The Driveway Is Half the Plan
Range roads and long driveways decide what truck we bring. Overhanging branches, soft shoulders, and tight turnarounds can stop a big truck cold. Sometimes the right answer is staging a smaller truck up the driveway and ferrying to the road. Our crews scout this before move day instead of discovering it during. Rain and spring thaw get factored in too, because a lawn rescue is nobody’s favourite job.
Spring Road Bans Are Real
Every spring, counties cut allowable truck weights on rural roads while the ground thaws. Strathcona County posts seasonal bans that typically run from March into June, and its neighbours do the same. Heavy vehicles that ignore the bans face fines and angry county offices. We route and schedule around the restrictions, which is one more headache you never see.
The Counties We Cover Every Week
East of the city, Strathcona County brings us past Sherwood Park to Ardrossan and the range roads beyond.
North, Sturgeon County runs through Morinville, Gibbons, and the farmland between them. Parkland County covers the west out past Spruce Grove and Stony Plain. Leduc County rounds out the south.
For the town-by-town picture, our guide to the communities around Edmonton breaks each one down.
Country Homes Hold Heavy Things
Deep freezers, workshop benches, and oversized furniture are standard on an acreage. Our local moving crews in Edmonton bring the equipment and the hands for all of it. Each one is a trained employee who treats the property like family owns it.
