Thanks everyone for your suggestions. I moved last October and used Great Canadian Vanlines. I estimated around 1000pounds of stuff and based on that they gave me a quote of ~ $1200. Atlas Vanlines quoted around $2.2K. Altas Vanlines sent a rep to the house and the Lady estimated around 1.2 K...

In Calgary, We were given 10 days after moving in, to check and verify everything and to give our move in report.

That was the problem.... I saw the carpets were bad. The leasing agent promised that it will be changed. Two days later, I went hoping everything was done. I didnt recheck the apartment. In the lease agreement, it was written everything was in good condition, new flooring etc etc etc. It was a...

This is my experience.. In Calgary, it was month to month lease with one month security deposit. Nice clean big (over 1000 sq ft) apartment( my opinion in the beginning was not so favourable, since I was comparing to Dallas apts. But changed after I saw Toronto apartments). Even if you had...

Thanks all. I finally got insurance with 2500/-, with comprehensive and 500 (out of pocket). Canada is a sellers market. Here "Seller is the King". For everything its agents/middlemen...... In US, I never dealt with agents for anything. Even when I first entered US and bought a car, called...

Ontario residents, Will you please share the car insurance you are paying? I paid 1650 per year in Calgary. Premiums in Toronto seems to be 300% of this amount...Is it like this?

This is what I have done. I wrote according to boxes.I shipped using freight. So mine was according to the box no and wrote a general heading. like- box 1- used clothes (pants, shirts etc) - approximate amount in the value column. box 2 - clothes(sweaters,jackets) box 3 - used Kitchen...

http://www.canadavisa.com/canada-immigration-discussion-board/ainp-srs-h1b-landing-experience-and-post-landing-related-activities-t46784.0.html The entire section is about landing from US.

In US,95% of the time you always get good service for the money you pay. From what I have seen, read and experienced, level of service in Canada leaves much to be desired. :( I have contacted Atlas too.. The local rep's is a separate company ( franchise ) BBB rating is not good. I have not...

http://www.thestar.com/news/article/1057724#comments Read through the comments comparing Toronto and Calgary.

I think I signed another white sheet, with a 'box' for signature, which is for the PR cards. The officer reminded us to sign inside the box too. Ask others too.

No. The officer prepared all the docs. We just signed the form. I signed for self and kids(principal applicant).

Can anybody recommend me a reputable moving company to help me with my move from Calgary to Toronto? Thanks.

Got my son's and wife's PR cards, after 6 weeks of submitting photos at the Calgary office.

I forgot to add about the application fee. The apartment manager(where I eventually rented), first asked for a months rent as application fee. She informed me that this fee will be held as security deposit, if my application was accepted. If rejected, the fee will be eventually returned to me by...

I thought I will post this, since I have seen many questions on arranging short term rentals. My reasons for arranging short term rental were 1. I was moving from US for good and needed an address to send our stuff. 2. I had a six month old baby, so didnt want the hassle of searching an...

Can anybody suggest me a few good user friendly websites for searching townhouse rental in Toronto? Some site like rentfaster.ca for Calgary and Edmonton.
