Coming to Halifax

Ottawa to Halifax is a posting route. Halifax is home to the navy's Atlantic fleet, and federal staff move between the two cities all year. We also move retirees heading to the coast. If you have a report date or a closing date in Halifax, give us that and we plan the load day from it.

You get a text when the truck is loaded, at each stop on the way, and when it is ten minutes from your new door. How the texts work →

Home turf

Halifax is where we work every day, so the delivery end is the easy part. We know which buildings need the elevator booked, which streets a truck can't stop on, and how long the bridge takes at five o'clock. We deliver anywhere in the Halifax area and anywhere else in Nova Scotia.

New to Nova Scotia? Four things to do

  • Health card. Apply for your Nova Scotia health card (MSI) as soon as you arrive. Your old province covers you for the first few months.
  • Driver's licence. Swap your licence for a Nova Scotia one within 90 days.
  • Your car. Register it here within 30 days. It needs a Nova Scotia safety inspection.
  • Power. Open a Nova Scotia Power account for your new address before move-in day.

Rules change. Check with Access Nova Scotia for the current ones.
