Professional Moving Services in Six Mile, View Royal, BC 2025

As of 2025, pricing for a two‑bedroom move that starts or ends on Six Mile Road or along the Admirals Road corridor depends on access, crew size, and whether a full 26' truck can access your curb. Based on local conditions in Six Mile, View Royal, common cost drivers are: parking permits or timed loading zones on Six Mile Road and Admirals Road; stair counts in older houses near Six Mile Point; and transfer distances when a lift truck or curbside transfer is necessary. Local hourly crews typically charge CAD 130–190/hour for a two‑bedroom move in Six Mile, View Royal, with a two‑crew minimum of 3–4 hours for short in-district moves. Full-service flat rates for door-to-door moves starting or ending on the Six Mile Road corridor fall between CAD 1,100 and CAD 2,200 depending on required labor (stair fees, elevator usage if applicable), equipment (apartment hoist or stair climber), and parking constraints at the Admirals/Island Highway junction. Expect extra fees for narrow-street transfers near the Highway 1 interchange at Six Mile and for steep driveways common on the Six Mile Point approach. As of December 2025, crews serving Six Mile come from both local View Royal teams and greater Victoria operators; local crews sometimes reduce travel time surcharges but may have smaller trucks requiring transfers. When budgeting, factor in permit costs (if a loading zone permit is required by View Royal), possible timed loading fees at key junctions like Admirals Road near View Royal Municipal Hall, and seasonal slowdowns in heavy rain months that can increase handling time. Use the pricing scenarios and the truck-fit table below to estimate your final cost.

Hourly rate basics: in 2025, many local carriers list base hourly rates of CAD 120–165 in downtown Victoria, while moves in Six Mile, View Royal frequently fall in the CAD 130–190 range when crews must deal with narrow driveways or curb-transfer logistics. The difference is not always in per-hour pricing but in the required time to complete each job. Narrow streets off Six Mile Road and steep driveways near Six Mile Point increase average loading/unloading time by 20–40% relative to a standard downtown street with a legal 2‑hour loading zone. Additionally, Admirals Road and the Admirals/Island Highway junction have constrained parking foreshortened by commuter flows, meaning crews often must perform shuttle runs between a parked truck and the residence. When comparing final invoices, a downtown Victoria 2‑bedroom move may be completed in 3–5 hours, whereas an equivalent Six Mile move that involves transfers can reach 5–7 hours, making the effective cost higher. If crews must obtain a short-term loading permit near View Royal Municipal Hall or at the Six Mile/Highway 1 interchange, permit fees and the time to set up cones or signs add to billed hours. Local teams familiar with Six Mile can sometimes reduce time through pre-planning, measured access checks, and staging near known loading points, which narrows the hourly gap with downtown moves. As of December 2025, request an on-site assessment or a virtual walk-through for accurate comparisons between downtown Victoria and Six Mile pricing.

View Royal’s municipal rules often apply to moves that require exclusive curb space on Six Mile Road, Admirals Road, or at the Admirals/Island Highway junction. Small, short moves that fit into existing 2‑hour curb parking windows typically do not require permits, but longer full‑truck moves and reserved loading zones should be pre-arranged. Major pinch points include the stretch of Six Mile Road close to the Highway 1 interchange and the block near View Royal Municipal Hall where commuter traffic reduces available curb spots. As a best practice in 2025, confirm with View Royal’s bylaw office whether a temporary loading permit is recommended for your move date; permits are commonly needed for reserved curb space, for trucks longer than 8–10 metres, or when cones/signage must be placed in the public right-of-way. Permit lead times are short but vary—some approvals are processed within 48–72 hours; others require application in advance if lane closure or extended set-up is necessary. Plan moves during off-peak windows (mid-morning to early afternoon on weekdays or scheduled weekends) to avoid timed restrictions. Moving companies with local experience in Six Mile, View Royal typically handle permit applications for customers as part of a full-service quote.
