Moving in Blenheim and Ridgetown: A Chatham-Kent Guide

Blenheim and Ridgetown are two of the main towns in the south and east of Chatham-Kent. Many moves here are between town homes and rural properties, or out to Chatham, Windsor and London. This guide covers what to plan for.

Moves in town

Older homes in both towns often have narrow stairs, tight turns and small doorways. Measure large furniture and doorways ahead of time, and tell us about stairs when you ask for a quote. We take apart bed frames, tables and other large pieces when needed and put them back together at the new home. On downtown streets, plan where the truck can park close to the door.

Farm properties and rural lots

For a rural property, check that a full-size truck can reach the house and turn around. After rain, soft ground can be a problem, so plan a firm spot for the truck. Tell us about any narrow bridges over drains, and point out sheds, garages and barns with items to move so they are on the inventory.

Moving to Chatham, Windsor or London

A move from Blenheim or Ridgetown to Chatham is short on the road, while Windsor or London can fill most of the day. We plan an early start, load in the order things come off the truck and keep the same crew from start to finish. Give us both full addresses so the quote includes the real travel time.

Pianos, hot tubs and pool tables

• Piano movers in Chatham-Kent: upright and grand pianos padded and strapped.
• Hot tub movers: drained and disconnected first, then moved on a dolly.
• Pool table movers: taken apart, moved and levelled again.

What affects the cost of your move

• How much you are moving: the number of rooms and large pieces sets the truck size and crew.
• Access at both homes: stairs, long walks from the truck and tight turns add time.
• Travel: the drive between the two addresses.
• Heavy items: pianos, hot tubs, pool tables and safes need extra crew and equipment.
• Packing: packing yourself costs less. We also rent plastic moving bins and sell cardboard boxes.

Give us these details when you ask and you get a clear flat-rate quote with no hidden fees.
