For home-service pros

Moving leads in Canada

Moving requests say what kind of move it is (local, long distance, a few large items, storage or an office) and, for home moves, how big: a studio or one bedroom, two or three bedrooms, or four or more. Homeowners can add the destination city and extras like packing, pianos or elevator bookings.

What a moving lead shows you

Every {lower} request answers these questions before it reaches you. Follow-up questions appear only when an earlier answer calls for them.

Because homeowners choose their timing, you can tell a move within days from one planned weeks ahead. Moving requests don’t include a budget; you quote from the size, the distance and the extras.

Current lead price

Pricing is set per request.

  • We haven’t published a standard price for moving leads yet. You see the price of each lead before you decide, and you pay only when you choose to connect.

Licensing notes by province

Our provincial permit guides don’t list a licence specific to this trade. That isn’t legal advice: check with your province or territory and your municipality before you take on work.

How matching works

Requests are matched by published rules that are the same for every pro.

How we rank and match pros
  • You receive a request only for services you offer and haven’t excluded, in the areas you serve.
  • Your account must be active, with your email address and phone number verified, and you must be accepting new requests within the daily or weekly limits you set.
  • Requests reach you only with timings you accept, such as emergencies, and budgets that aren’t clearly outside the range you work in.
  • When more pros fit than a lead allows, we give more weight to an exact service match, how directly you cover the area, verification, how quickly you reply and, once you have at least three published reviews, your rating. Never to who pays more.
  • Each lead goes to a limited number of pros, and you see that number before you decide.

Invalid leads and refunds

If a lead turns out to be invalid, you can ask for a refund review from your dashboard. We look at each request and let you know the outcome. A lead may qualify when:

  • The contact details are wrong or don't work.
  • It duplicates a lead you already received.
  • It isn't a real request for work.
  • It's outside the services or areas you listed.

Verification you’ll need

Before you receive leads, you confirm your business email and phone number with one-time codes. Business registration, licence and insurance details are optional during sign-up; once our team checks them, your profile shows what was verified and when.

  • Contact details verified

    You confirm your business email and phone number with one-time codes. This is required before you receive leads.

  • Business registration checked

    Our team reviews the registration details you provide.

  • Licence and insurance checked

    Where your trade calls for a licence or insurance, we review what you provide.

Verification shows which details were checked and when. It isn’t a guarantee of workmanship, and it can’t be bought.
