About MoveKit Montreal

Why was MoveKit Montreal created?

MoveKit Montreal was created out of a real frustration. When moving in Montreal, most people find that buying moving supplies online means paying outrageous shipping fees — because boxes and packing materials are bulky, and most suppliers ship them at commercial freight rates designed for large business orders, not individuals. A simple order of moving boxes could cost $130 or more just in shipping. MoveKit Montreal was built to solve exactly that: fairly priced moving kits with flat-rate local delivery starting at $13, delivered to your door in Montreal and Laval within 48 hours — because moving is already stressful enough.

What is MoveKit Montreal's mission?

MoveKit Montreal exists to make moving in Montreal and Laval simpler, more affordable, and less stressful. We saw people paying outrageous shipping fees just to get basic moving supplies delivered — because most suppliers are built for large businesses, not individuals. So we built something different: pre-bundled moving kits with everything you need for your space, delivered to your door at a fair flat rate. Our vision is to be the go-to moving supply destination for every Montreal resident — the brand people think of first when they're moving in, moving out, or helping someone do the same.

Is MoveKit Montreal a local Montreal business?

Yes — MoveKit Montreal is a local business built specifically for Montreal and Laval residents moving in or out of their homes. We focus entirely on the residential moving experience, so everything from our kit sizes to our delivery options is designed around what a real move actually looks like.

Why should I buy from MoveKit Montreal instead of a hardware store or big box retailer?

MoveKit Montreal is built exclusively for people moving in and out of homes and apartments in Montreal and Laval. Unlike general retailers or wholesale suppliers focused on large commercial accounts, we specialize in exactly what a residential mover needs — the right quantities, pre-bundled for your space, delivered to your door within 48 hours starting at $13. No oversized pallets, no bulk minimums, no guessing.

Not sure still? Start with any kit and add individual items to your cart before checkout to customize your order.

Can I add extra items to a moving kit?

Yes — all of our moving kits are a great starting point, but you can customize your order by adding individual items to your cart alongside any kit. For example, if you're ordering the Student Lite Moving Kit but need an extra moving box and a mattress bag, simply add those items to your cart before checkout. You only pay for what you need, and everything ships together in one delivery to your door in Montreal and Laval within 48 hours.

Can I buy individual moving supplies instead of a kit?

Yes — if a kit doesn't match your exact needs, you can shop individual moving supplies directly on our website. We sell moving boxes, packing tape, bubble wrap, stretch wrap, packing paper, mattress bags, permanent markers, box cutters, and resealable bags separately. Build your own order and only pay for what you need.
