You don’t need a quote to know roughly what you’ll pay. You need to know how many movers, how many hours and what the hourly rate is. That’s the whole formula.

Below are the real numbers for a 1 bedroom, 2 bedroom, 3 bedroom and 4 bedroom move, plus what pushes the price up or down. If you want an exact number today, call Fast Kats Moving Edmonton at (780) 246-2604.

The short answer:

A 1 bedroom move in Edmonton typically costs about $500 to $1,100.
A 2 bedroom move typically costs about $900 to $1,400.
A 3 bedroom move typically costs about $1,200 to $1,800.
A 4 bedroom house typically costs about $1,800 to $2,500.

Home size	Typical time on the job	Typical cost (local move)
1 bedroom apartment	About 4 to 6 hours	$500 to $1,100
2 bedroom apartment or small house	About 5 to 7 hours	$900 to $1,400
3 bedroom home	About 6 to 8 hours	$1,200 to $1,800
4 bedroom house	About 8 to 10 hours	$1,800 to $2,500

These are ballpark ranges for a local move inside Edmonton, based on published 2025 and 2026 moving data and typical hourly rates. They are not a quote. Your price depends on stairs, distance, how much you own and how well you’re packed.

Why hours matter more than the size of your home: Crews of two movers with a truck typically charge about $120 to $150 per hour, and three movers about $150 to $200 per hour, so every hour you save comes straight off your bill. For a deeper look at rates, see how much movers cost in Edmonton.

What a 1, 2, 3 and 4 bedroom move costs in Edmonton

Cost to move a 1 bedroom apartment

A 1 bedroom is the quickest job, usually a two-mover crew and a truck for about 4 to 6 hours. At typical rates that lands around $500 to $1,100.

Where you fall in that range depends on your floor, your elevator and your pile of boxes. A ground-floor unit with everything packed is the low end. A third-floor walk-up with a king bed and a full closet is the high end.

Cost to move a 2 bedroom apartment

A 2 bedroom usually needs two or three movers for about 5 to 7 hours, which works out to roughly $900 to $1,400.

The extra cost comes from the second bedroom’s furniture, a bigger kitchen and more boxes, not the extra room itself. Pack the kitchen and closets before the crew arrives and you can easily save an hour.

Cost to move a 3 bedroom home

A 3 bedroom house or condo typically runs about 6 to 8 hours with three movers, for roughly $1,200 to $1,800.

At this size, the number of movers matters. Three movers cost more per hour but finish faster, so the total is often the same as a smaller crew working longer. Ask for both options when you get your quote.

Average moving cost for a 4 bedroom house

A 4 bedroom house is a full-day job of about 8 to 10 hours with a larger crew, typically $1,800 to $2,500. Basements, garages and storage sheds add boxes quickly, so list them when you ask for a price.

Not sure which size you are?

Go by furniture, not rooms. A 2 bedroom with an empty second room costs closer to a 1 bedroom, and a 1 bedroom with a full house of belongings can cost more than expected. Send us a list of your biggest items and we’ll tell you where you land.

What changes your moving cost

Two identical 2 bedrooms can have very different bills. These are the things that move the number:

Stairs and elevators. A third-floor walk-up adds time on every trip. A booked elevator saves it.
Truck parking. If the truck can’t park near the door, the crew walks farther with every load.
Heavy and awkward items. Pianos, safes, gym equipment and big sectionals take extra people or time.
Packing. Open drawers and loose items slow the crew down. Boxed and labelled moves go faster.
Distance between homes. Most local moves are time on the job, not mileage. Moves across the city or to Sherwood Park or St. Albert add drive time.
Date and day. Month-end and summer weekends book first and cost the most. Midweek and mid-month are easier to schedule.
Crew size. More movers cost more per hour but finish sooner.

Flat rate or hourly?

Most Edmonton moves are billed by the hour, and some companies offer flat-rate quotes. We break down the pros and cons in our guide to flat rate vs hourly movers in Edmonton, so you know what to ask for before you book.

How to lower the cost of your move

Declutter first. Every piece you sell or donate is one less thing to carry, load and unload.
Pack before the crew arrives. Kitchen, closets and drawers take the longest. Finish them the day before.
Disassemble what you can. Bed frames and desks that come apart are faster and safer to move.
Clear a path. Keep hallways, stairs and the truck’s parking spot free on moving day.
Book a weekday or mid-month. You’ll have better choice of dates, and the crew isn’t rushing between jobs.
Book early. Two to three weeks ahead gives you the best pick of dates.
Group the heavy items. Tell the crew about the piano, safe or treadmill when you book so they send the right people.

How to get an accurate moving quote

A useful quote needs five details:

Your pickup and drop-off addresses, and the floor and access at both
Number of bedrooms and roughly how many boxes
Your biggest or heaviest items
Your preferred date and time window
Whether you want packing help

Send those to us and you’ll get a straight answer on the hourly rate, the crew size and the likely hours.
