Movers in Oshawa, Ontario

Oshawa moves split fairly evenly between established family homes, rental turnovers and the student market around the north end. Because much of Durham commutes west, moving days here often need to start early to avoid losing hours to 401 traffic.

Local knowledge

What moving in Oshawa involves

  • Older central Oshawa homes have compact rooms, narrower staircases and detached garages.
  • Northern Oshawa near the university and college has a large rental and student population.
  • Newer Windfields and Taunton subdivisions provide standard driveway loading.
  • Westbound 401 congestion makes early starts important for moves into Toronto.
  • Lakeview and southern areas include older bungalows with basement access from outside.
