Located in Hartford County, Canton offers a unique blend of scenic landscapes, established neighborhoods, and convenient access to major Connecticut communities. Whether you’re relocating within Canton or moving into the area for the first time, having a local moving company that understands the region can make a meaningful difference.
This rural, stable neighborhood features large single-family homes and townhomes mostly built between 1970 and 1999. With high owner-occupancy and long-term residents, moves often involve large volumes of specialty furnishings and accumulated belongings. While rural lots typically offer accessible driveways and open staging, older homes from the 1940s-60s may present interior access challenges that require review during estimates.
This suburban village offers a varied housing mix, including smaller homes, post-2000 construction, and apartments. Popular with retirees and professionals, moves here often involve downsizing or transitioning to compact layouts. While newer buildings lack the tight interior constraints of older Canton properties, apartment moves require specific coordination for elevator access and building logistics.

A little preparation goes a long way toward creating a successful move.
Reducing unnecessary items lowers moving costs and makes unpacking much easier. Consider donating or selling items you no longer use, which can simplify your packing process and reduce moving expenses.
Include medications, chargers, toiletries, snacks, important documents, and a change of clothes so your first day in your new home is more comfortable. Keep this box with you in your personal vehicle rather than on the moving truck to ensure you have quick access to necessities.
Clearly identify each box with its destination room and a brief description of its contents. Consider color-coding labels by room to make the unloading process faster and more organized for the moving team.
Arrange electricity, internet, water, and other essential services before moving day to avoid unnecessary interruptions. Aim to have these services turned on a day before your arrival to avoid any last-minute surprises.
Review addresses, arrival times, parking access, and any special instructions with your moving company before moving day arrives. Ensure your contact information is up to date and you have a direct point of contact for the day of your move.
Booking several weeks ahead is recommended, especially during the busy spring and summer moving seasons. Early scheduling provides greater flexibility when selecting your preferred moving date.

We are so grateful to Murphy Moving for a flawless move. We have used Murphy three other times, and we will happily use them again for any future moves. Len and Lisa were super helpful on the front end in providing a quote, scheduling the move, giving us suggestions, and answering all of our questions. They checked in throughout the process to make sure all was going well. Our movers, Marcelo and Fillipe, were amazing. They encountered more than a few challenges with multiple stairs, and lots of tight turns in narrow hallways. Their attitudes were very pleasant throughout and all of our belongings were handled with much care. They did a great job!
There aren't enough compliments to give Murphy Moving and Storage! In summary, the patient and caring guidance from Geraldine, the continual communication and support from Kyla , the safe long term storage, and the very remarkable moving skills and talent by Beto and his team made our (four month) moving experience an absolute pleasure. We valued our trusting relationship and are happy for future families who will be in their very personal and highly professional care. Thank you over and again Murphy Moving and Storage. We wouldn't be where we are without you!
We were very fortunate to find Murphy Moving and Storage for our complicated relocation that also required storage. Geraldine, Kyla and Beto and his team of movers were all very personable and professional. They maintained excellent communication with us throughout our moving process. They made a very stressful situation pleasant and enjoyable. We felt so comfortable with Geraldine when she visited our home for the inventory and offered suggestions and encouragement for preparing to move. Kyla was in frequent communication and so patient with editing my changing inventory and arranging a schedule for pick up. Beto and his team of movers were friendly while remaining focused on their individual tasks and their teamwork was remarkable. They wrapped each piece of furniture so well and treated each piece of furniture and every carton as if it were a precious jewel, not to mention how well they arranged the pieces for safe transportation in the moving van. We feel Murphy Moving and Storage is a trustworthy company. We felt and continue to feel confident in their care of us and our 39 years of accumulated and valued possessions. We highly recommend Murphy Moving and Storage and we thank you for your service.
