I just completed the move from Chicago to Toronto. One recommendation about movers: consider hiring a CANADIAN mover to come to you in the States and bring your things to Canada. I did the opposite. I went with a U.S. company called Broadway Express--similar to a U-Haul (U-Pack, They Drive)...and Broadway Express does service Canada. However, once I arrived here, I realized I could have hired a local company to come to me in Chicago and then have my things brought to Toronto. Something to consider---they will be able to navigate Customs.

I have no affiliation with them, but I hired a Canadian company called Tender Touch to unload the truck I had hired from the States, once I arrived in Toronto....and they told me they could have come to me and brought me here and that made a great deal of sense.

Get ready for cost.....it was an expensive move.
