Kingston sits on Lake Ontario where the St. Lawrence River begins, at the southern end of the Rideau Canal, about halfway between Toronto and Montreal on Highway 401. Known as the Limestone City for its historic stone buildings, it is home to Queen’s University, St. Lawrence College, the Royal Military College and CFB Kingston. Forge Movers moves homes in Kingston and the surrounding towns, and between the Kingston area and cities across Canada.

Homes we move around Kingston

  • Older limestone and brick houses downtown and near Queen’s, with steep, narrow stairs, tight doorways and limited street parking.
  • Student rentals and apartments near the universities and the college, many with walk-up stairs.
  • Suburban homes in Kingston’s west end, Amherstview and Odessa, with driveways and easy truck access.
  • Town and rural homes in Napanee, Gananoque, Sydenham and on Wolfe Island, where we plan around long driveways, country roads and the ferry.

Local practicalities around Kingston

  • Kingston moves follow Ontario’s rules: a written contract for moving services over $50, and a mover generally cannot charge more than 10% above the estimate unless you agree to extra services. We put every charge in writing.
  • Student moves peak at the end of April and the end of August, and many military families move during the summer posting season, so book early for those weeks. See the best time to move.
  • Moves between Kingston and the nearby towns are priced as local moves at our Ontario rate, so you can get an instant estimate online.
  • Winter can bring heavy snow off the lake; keep a backup date. See moving in winter.
