Hillhurst is a mature inner-city neighbourhood adjacent to Kensington, known for its tree-lined streets, character homes dating back to the early 1900s, and a growing number of modern infills. It's one of Calgary's most desirable communities for families and professionals who want inner-city living with a neighbourhood feel.

Moving Considerations in Hillhurst

Hillhurst's older homes often feature narrow staircases, uneven floors, and back-lane access only. Modern infills can be tall and narrow with tight interior layouts. Our crews bring the right protective materials — floor runners, banister pads, and corner guards — to handle both styles of home.

Street parking is residential permit-only in many blocks, so we arrange temporary permits in advance. Moves during weekday mornings tend to be smoothest when neighbourhood traffic is lightest.

Customer Reviews — Hillhurst

Unitas Movers handled our piano move from Hillhurst to Lakeview. It's a 1920s upright that's been in the family for generations. They had the right equipment, moved it down a flight of stairs, and delivered it without a single issue. The piano tuner said it was in perfect shape after. Thank you!
