Plan your Georgina move
Photograph the approach
Take pictures from the road toward the entrance and from the entrance toward the proposed truck position. Include gates, turns, overhanging branches and any slope. Explain whether the surface is paved, gravel or another material. These photographs support planning; the team still needs to agree where the vehicle can safely stand on the day.
Prepare for the conditions
Check the forecast close to the moving date and keep the carrying route clear of water, snow, ice and loose objects. Let the team know if the entrance cannot be made usable. Do not assume a vehicle can park on a soft lawn because it appears to have enough space. Discuss an alternative position before the crew starts unloading.
Separate outdoor belongings
List patio pieces, garden equipment and anything kept outside apart from indoor furniture. Describe their condition and whether they can be dismantled. Ask the team about acceptance and preparation of equipment before loading, particularly anything with fuel, batteries or sharp parts. A photograph and model name are more useful than a general description such as garden things.

Keep the destination reachable
If nobody will be at the destination when the truck arrives, decide who can provide access and answer questions about placement. Check that the address is visible and send any useful entrance instructions privately to the team. Have a backup contact in case the first person cannot be reached. Pack items needed immediately into clearly marked boxes, and keep essential documents with you. For a move involving a home that is not occupied every day, verify that doors open correctly and that someone has actually checked the inside access rather than assuming the last visit reflects the current situation.
Get your Georgina moving quote
Start with your pickup and destination postal codes, preferred date and an inventory. Add photos of larger items and the route through each property. Optimum serves the GTA and beyond; this Georgina guide does not represent a separate branch office. The team checks the details and availability before a booking is agreed.
Your questions, answered
Before you book
What if the truck cannot reach the front door?
Tell us the likely stopping point and walking distance before booking. Photos help the team discuss carrying access and expected time. If the access changes, contact the team promptly rather than relying on an improvised parking position on arrival.
What does the hourly rate include in Georgina?
Two movers, a vehicle, fuel, mileage, furniture assembly and disassembly, and insurance are listed in every moving package. Ask about the applicable coverage terms. HST and packing materials are additional, and the final total depends on billable time.
Is sending a quote request the same as booking?
No. A request starts the conversation. The team reviews the date, inventory and access, then discusses the price and scope with you. Availability and the booking details need to be agreed before the move is reserved.
Can I add packing or cleaning to this move?
Yes. Specify the rooms, items or cleaning tasks you want help with. These services are quoted separately from the vehicle package. Tell us whether you already have boxes and whether the cleaning space will be empty when access is available.
What if the inventory changes after I get a quote?
Send the revised list and any new photos before moving day. Extra furniture, another address or different access can affect the vehicle and expected time. The team can review the change with you so the agreed scope remains clear.
