Moving from Montreal to Toronto
A Montreal to Toronto move puts everything you own on a 540 km highway with a company you chose from a search result, and the price spread between quotes on this route runs from $1,500 to $3,800 or more for the same apartment. The difference is rarely the truck. It is brokers reselling your job, per-kilometre surprises, and hand-offs where damage happens and nobody is accountable.
AKA Moving runs the 401 corridor with our own crews, both directions. One flat written price locked before the truck rolls, one crew from your Montreal door to your Toronto door, and the same rule coming back. Call (514) 915-3967.
Typical market pricing for the Montreal to Toronto route is $1,500 to $2,500 for a 1 to 2 bedroom apartment and $2,800 to $3,800 or more for a 3 to 4 bedroom house. AKA Moving quotes a flat written price for the route, with the truck, fuel, equipment and insurance included, and one crew door to door with no broker hand-offs.
What the Montreal-Toronto route costs
Those market ranges are what this route actually costs across reputable movers; where you land inside them depends on volume, access at both ends and the date. What we fix is the number itself: your AKA quote is a flat written price for your specific move, locked before moving day. Compare it with our Montreal moving cost guide or get your route quote.
How the route works
The drive is about 540 km on Highway 401, five to six hours in normal conditions. Your belongings are blanket-wrapped and inventoried at your Montreal address, ride in one truck with one crew, and are placed room by room in Toronto the same day or on your chosen delivery date. No terminal transfers, no third-party linehaul, no waiting window that spans a week. The chain of custody never breaks, which is where long distance damage actually happens.
Book four to six weeks ahead when you can. Mid-month dates cost less than month-end, and Quebec's July 1st rush collides with Ontario's end-of-month cycle in summer, so those weeks fill first. If your closing dates do not line up, your load can wait in our secured 30,000 sq ft Dorval warehouse instead of a stranger's terminal. We handle the complexity.
Moving from Toronto to Montreal?
Same crews, same flat written price, opposite direction. We run the corridor weekly both ways, which also means return-trip dates can be efficient dates: ask about upcoming runs when you call. Settling in Quebec comes with paperwork Ontario does not have, from RAMQ registration to the SAAQ; our team walks you through the address-change basics when we confirm your date.

AKA Moving is a CTQ-licensed Montreal moving company, fully insured, with a 4.9-star rating across 194 Google reviews. The crew that loads you is the crew that unloads you. That is proof, not a slogan.

Yes, weekly, with the same crews and the same flat written pricing. Return-trip dates can be efficient dates, so ask about upcoming runs.
Four to six weeks ahead is ideal. Mid-month dates cost less than month-end, and summer weeks around Quebec's July 1st moving day fill first.
