In Canada, the moving services trade is a fragmented but essential domestic industry serving residential and commercial relocations across provinces and cities. It supports modest steady revenue reported between approximately CAD 1.2 billion (2021) and up to CAD 3.4 billion (2025), with most businesses being small local operators.
Demand peaks in summer—roughly May through September, especially June to August, when about 60–70% of all moves occur—and prices rise by 15–30%. Demand dips in winter, particularly November through March, offering 10–25% lower rates but with risks from weather delays.
