Calculating Hauling Costs
Moving costs vary from one person to another, but here are a few common things that are factored into an international move to Montreal, Canada from the United States:
- Professional Moving Services- From packing, lifting, loading, and delivery, a professional hauling company like Three Movers will have you moved in no time at all. Service costs will depend on the types of services requested, and the overall cost is based on services, distance from your current home to the new home in Montreal, and fees that must be paid to ship everything outside of the U.S.
- Auto Transport-Auto transport can start at around $1000 but the overall cost depends on how you ship, and the distance from the U.S. port to Montreal.
- Visa-Visa requirements vary from one person to another. If you fly into Canada, you will need a visa or an Electronic Travel Authorization (eTA) that allows permission to fly through or otherwise travel through the country. Those that plan to stay in Montreal for 180 days or less will not necessarily need a visa for a long-term stay, but you will need your U.S. passport and other identifying documentation.
- Housing- Prior to moving to Montreal, it is advised to consult with a local, Montreal based realtor to find a new home. Whether renting or buying, a realtor will be the best option for finding something in your budget, the right neighborhood, and one with the amenities you are looking for. The average rental rate in Montreal is $1400, and the average purchase price for a home is $234,000. Housing cost should be included when calculating moving expenses.
- Cell Phone- Some cell phone carriers in the U.S. do not offer service in Canada. You will want to check with your service provider to ensure your phone will work when you move. Some companies, including Verizon, AT&T Pre-Paid, T-Mobile, Mint Mobile will work in Canada as well as the U.S. You may need to contact the provide to have the service updated, however, for service in Montreal.
Montreal, Canada is known as one of the happiest places to live, and with a low crime rate, an affordable cost of living, and a diverse population, it is certainly a lovely place to begin a new life.
