Packing & Unpacking

Packing & Unpacking

Professional packing & unpacking — done in a fraction of the time

Packing is the part of moving that nobody enjoys, and the part that determines whether anything breaks. Our packing crews can fully box up an average 3-bedroom home in 4–6 hours using techniques that take homeowners 2–3 weekends. More importantly, professionally packed items arrive intact — and are covered under our full-replacement cargo insurance.

Three packing service levels

  • Full pack — We pack everything, room by room, while you handle the rest of life. Most popular for families and busy professionals.
  • Partial pack — We handle the high-value, fragile and complicated items (kitchen, art, electronics, wardrobes). You handle the easy stuff.
  • Fragile-only pack — We pack only your china, glassware, art, mirrors, lamps and electronics. Best for budget-conscious moves.

Materials we use

Double-walled corrugated boxes (small / medium / large / dish-pack / wardrobe / picture-mirror / mattress), bubble wrap, packing paper, foam corner protectors, custom-built crates for art and stone, anti-static wrap for electronics, and acid-free tissue for textiles. All materials are included in your packing quote — no nickel-and-diming for tape rolls.

Specialty items we pack regularly

Pianos · Pool tables · Original art and sculpture · Antiques and heirlooms · Server racks and IT equipment · Wine collections · Musical instruments · Large mirrors and glass cabinets · Outdoor BBQs and patio sets.

Unpacking on arrival

Our unpacking service places every item on a flat surface in the correct room, breaks down and removes all empty boxes and packing materials, and leaves you with a fully functional home — not a maze of cardboard.

“Professional, kind, attentive to every aspect of our multi stage move. Brad and his team were amazing. Highly recommend Macho Movers.”
Cynthia Ough Multi-Stage Move
★★★★★
“Macho Movers were absolutely fantastic. We had to do a fairly tricky appliance move and they got it done quickly, efficiently, and very carefully. Really appreciated the team and all of their hard work!”
Bailey Hanna GTA, ON
★★★★★
“The move was challenging as it required traversing a set of narrow stairs and a tricky corner. The move also involved two long sea kayaks and a Kevlar canoe — all of which arrived without a scuff or scratch. They treated my belongings with the care that they would treat their own. Brad and his crew operated with the utmost professionalism and honesty. I highly recommend the company.”
Mark Munro GTA, ON
★★★★★
“I was very impressed with the quality of the work completed by Macho Movers. I spoke with many other moving companies but this one was the best. Very professional and very thorough. I highly recommend them to anyone who requires a long distance move as well.”
Claudia Doncaster Long-Distance Move

“Quick response to my request; scheduled promptly. Brad and Kyle were professional, arrived with the appropriate equipment, completed the job quickly and were careful with our property. I would absolutely hire Macho Movers again!”
Kimm Khagram GTA, ON
★★★★★
“Outstanding. We needed help moving our son from one student house to another. We booked at very late notice and they accommodated our dates and preferred moving time. The moving guys were incredibly friendly, careful and efficient. Pricing was below what I had expected to pay. Can't recommend Macho Movers highly enough.”
