Movelinx connects you to thousands of moving and transportation companies across Canada. In just a few easy steps, you’ll be able to search, compare, and hire professional movers based on their availability, competitive pricing, real customer reviews, and their overall service ratings.
Whether it’s transporting a single oversized item or a whole house of furniture, you will find a host of reliable local transporters waiting to respond to your logistics needs. And because all service providers are carefully screened, you can be sure they are properly qualified to handle and transport your goods, safely and efficiently.
Movelinx is the first platform of its kind in Canada, with a proprietary quoting algorithm, price comparison and customer feedback rating system dedicated to the moving and transportation industries. We are continually expanding our network of service providers so as to provide you with the best logistical solutions in the market.
Behind every successful idea is a vision, and ours is one that seeks to make a positive change in the logistics industry, by creating a greater awareness and transparency of its service delivery and pricing.
We understand the limitations faced by consumers when it comes to assessing movers or transporters and the unethical practices they sometimes encounter with unscrupulous operators and we recognize the need to improve customer experience within the industry by offering customer support in an integrated system. This led us to develop Movelinx, Canada’s first online platform where consumers can search, hire, and share reviews of their engagement with movers.
Movelinx was designed to introduce a healthy competition into the market, which leads to better price deals for customers. Our priority is to make these services truly affordable to everyone while rewarding honest moving companies with the high customer ratings they deserve. For these reasons, we keep our commissions low for each transaction passed through our system and put our focus on customer satisfaction.
At Movelinx, we want to create a useful platform to connect customers with reliable service providers, and to serve the community with integrity.
At Movelinx, we are driven by a strong desire to serve the community, by offering a service in which consumers can benefit from a system of pricing transparency and information sharing.
Our mission is focused on saving consumers time and money when it comes to moving bulky items that require special transportation and delivery. We do our part by vetting movers and moving companies, performing accreditation and insurance checks, so as to ensure only trusted service providers are listed.
By integrating the services of the entire moving industry into one convenient location, we aim to become the first point of contact for all your logistics needs.
Movelinx is the online marketplace that makes your moving and delivery process easier and more transparent. Just enter your job details, compare prices and reviews, choose a verified mover and book.
We make the hiring process as easy as booking flights or ordering a pizza online. No more searching on the internet, calling multiple movers, and filling out request forms to get a quote.
All our Service Providers go through a rigorous verification process and adhere to our strict service standards, so you can rest assured that your move will be handled with care and professionalism.
The funds held in escrow will be released to Service Providers only after the satisfactory completion of the job. Our team will be there for you throughout the entire process.
Movelinx takes the pain and frustration out of the process of hiring movers and transporters. We first conduct thorough checks to ensure all our Service Providers are trustworthy and qualified for the job. We then collect and store their rates in our database. When searching for a mover on Movelinx, a list of available Service Providers is provided instantaneously with their rates and reviews so you can easily compare and make an informed decision to choose the right provider.
Movelinx is the best place to get to know each mover and gather honest and accurate information about them.
You don't need to have an account to book through Movelinx, an account will automatically be created for you once your order is placed so you can track the status of your order.
At this time, we offer the following two services:
- Full moving service: this service allows customers to hire movers on a per hour basis as they would usually do through any of the traditional channels. Using the parameters entered by the customer, an estimate of the total cost will be provided but the final charges will be based on the actual billable service time.
- Delivery / Transportation: the service is geared towards customers who need to transport oversized items such as furniture and home appliances. This will be especially valuable for customers who purchase a secondhand piece of furniture or any other oversized household item in store or online and need to bring it back home. As this is not a full service, the customer is expected to prepare the items and be ready when their Service Provider arrives as well as help the driver load and unload the transported items.
More services will soon be made available, if you have any suggestions or would like to request new features, please let us know!

On the day of your service, we confirm your appointment with your service provider.

There are, however, a few more ways you can save money on moving and transportation services. Our blog is a great place to find money saving tips.
Here are a few basic guidelines:
- Avoid the busiest days of the month (1st, 15th, 30th and 31st).
- Book at least two weeks in advance in the spring, fall, and winter; and at least four weeks in advance in the summer.
- Be handy. Pack and unpack things yourself.
- Be as organized as possible on your service day.
Furniture assembly and disassembly is only available under the "hourly moving service"; your service provider is paid by the hour and this service is included. This service is not available under the "transportation" service.
Reviews are an important part of the Movelinx community. Once the service is delivered, you will be able to provide your Service Provider with some helpful feedback and help others in your community make a more informed decision when hiring them.
