EVERY CORNER OF AHUNTSIC-CARTIERVILLE
Every Corner of Ahuntsic-Cartierville — Covered Daily
Montreal's largest borough by area — a diverse mix of housing types from heritage riverfront homes to post-war bungalows and modern condos. Each sub-neighbourhood has unique moving logistics.
Ahuntsic (Central) — The Residential Heart
The residential heart of the borough — tree-lined streets, family-oriented community with deep roots. Housing is a mix of duplexes, triplexes, semi-detached homes, and some single-family properties. Key streets include Fleury, Henri Bourassa, Christophe-Colomb, Saint-Hubert, and Lajeunesse. Fleury Street is a commercial strip undergoing revitalization — parking permits may be needed for moves on or near Fleury. Métro access at Henri-Bourassa, Sauvé, and Crémazie stations. Typical move: 4½–5½ family apartment or duplex unit. CNS travels the Henri Bourassa corridor to Ahuntsic central daily — we know every block, every staircase configuration, and every parking challenge on these streets.
Sault-au-Récollet — Heritage Riverfront
Historic neighbourhood along the Rivière des Prairies — one of Montreal's oldest settled areas. Housing includes heritage homes, larger detached properties, and some waterfront estates. Gouin Blvd properties feature large homes with long driveways and river views — similar in volume to West Island estates. Quieter streets with good truck access. Moving challenge: large-format furniture, heritage home protection requiring Westmount-level care with floor runners, door frame padding, and banister wrapping. Typical move: 5½+ family home with higher volume. CNS brings 3–4 movers with a 26-foot truck for Gouin Blvd moves.
Bordeaux-Cartierville — Our Neighbours
The western section of the borough bordering Saint-Laurent — literally our home base. Housing is primarily post-war bungalows, split-levels, and some newer townhouse developments. Diverse, multi-generational households with full basements that often hold as much as the main floors. Good street access with driveways common throughout the area. Typical move: family home with full basement requiring 3 movers and 5–7 hours. CNS headquarters is at 4590 Henri Bourassa Blvd W — Bordeaux-Cartierville is the closest sub-neighbourhood to our dispatch yard. Response time: immediate.
Nouveau-Bordeaux — Affordable Residential
South of Henri Bourassa, a residential grid of compact streets. Housing includes compact bungalows, duplexes, and some walk-up apartment buildings. More affordable area with a high renter population — strong July 1st moving activity, moderate to high volume every year. Typical move: 3½–4½ apartment or small house. This is a frequent origin for families moving to Laval for more space and families from Laval moving to Ahuntsic for better transit access via the métro network.
Île-de-la-Visitation Area — Green and Quiet
Quieter residential pockets near the Parc de l'Île-de-la-Visitation and green spaces along the Rivière des Prairies. A mix of older homes and some newer infill development. Peaceful streets with easy truck access and minimal parking complications. Popular with families who want river proximity without Gouin Blvd prices. Typical move: 4½–5½ family home or townhouse. CNS handles this area as part of our daily Ahuntsic routes — same crew, same equipment, same neighbourhood knowledge.
WHY AHUNTSIC MOVES ARE EASY FOR CNS
5 Minutes From Our Door to Yours
CNS headquarters sits directly on the Henri Bourassa corridor that runs through Ahuntsic. No bridge crossings, no tunnel traffic, no highway tolls — just a straight drive to your door.
Fastest Response Time
CNS HQ is at 4590 Henri Bourassa Blvd W in Saint-Laurent. Henri Bourassa runs directly through Ahuntsic — our trucks travel this corridor daily. No bridges, no tunnels, no tolls. If we have a gap in the schedule, Ahuntsic gets first call. Last-minute availability is highest for Ahuntsic because we're literally next door.
Fleury Street Knowledge
We know which Fleury Street blocks need parking permits for moving day. The commercial strip has metered parking and busy sidewalks — side street loading is preferred. CNS advises on the best truck positioning for every Fleury-area move based on the specific address and time of day.
Gouin Blvd Estate Moves
Gouin Blvd properties along the Rivière des Prairies are similar in volume to West Island estates. Large homes, long driveways, multiple floors, and heritage-quality furniture. CNS brings 3–4 movers with a 26-foot truck for these moves. Heritage home protection included — floor runners, door frame padding, banister wrapping, and blanket coverage for every item.
Basement-Heavy Moves
Bordeaux-Cartierville bungalows and Nouveau-Bordeaux homes typically have full basements that hold as much as the main floors — sometimes more. Many clients underestimate the volume in their basement. CNS factors basement contents into every Ahuntsic estimate so the crew arrives with the right truck size and enough time to handle the full load.
Ahuntsic ↔ Laval Connection
Ahuntsic borders Laval directly across the Rivière des Prairies. Multiple bridge crossings — Pont Papineau-Leblanc, Pont Viau, Pont Lachapelle. Travel time: 10–15 minutes in normal traffic. This is the most common Ahuntsic move route. CNS travel fee for Ahuntsic to Laval: $50–75, one of our lowest cross-bridge fees.

AHUNTSIC ↔ LAVAL CONNECTION
Ahuntsic ↔ Laval — The Shortest Bridge Crossing in Montreal
Ahuntsic borders Laval directly across the Rivière des Prairies — making it the shortest cross-bridge move in the Montreal area. Three bridge crossings serve this route: Pont Papineau-Leblanc, Pont Viau, and Pont Lachapelle. Travel time is just 10–15 minutes in normal traffic. CNS handles this route multiple times per week — it's the most common move pattern for Ahuntsic residents.
The flow goes both ways. Families in Ahuntsic upgrade to Laval's larger homes and bigger lots — more space for the money north of the river. And Laval families move south to Ahuntsic for better transit access via the métro network (Henri-Bourassa, Sauvé, Crémazie stations) and proximity to downtown Montreal. Both directions benefit from CNS's location on Henri Bourassa — we're positioned perfectly for either direction.
CNS travel fee for Ahuntsic to Laval moves: $50–75 — one of our lowest cross-bridge fees anywhere in the Montreal area. For context, South Shore travel fees run $75–125 and West Island fees run $50–100. The Ahuntsic–Laval route is simply the most efficient cross-bridge move we handle.

Laval families moving to Ahuntsic for better métro access (Henri-Bourassa, Sauvé, Crémazie) and proximity to downtown Montreal. Growing trend.

AHUNTSIC RESIDENTS SPEAK
What Ahuntsic Clients Say About CNS
“We moved from a duplex on Christophe-Colomb to a house in Laval. CNS was here in 10 minutes for the estimate — they're literally down the road on Henri Bourassa. The crew knew exactly where to park the truck, handled the basement (which had 30 years of accumulated stuff), and had us in Laval by 3pm. Incredibly efficient.”
François & Marie B.
Ahuntsic to Laval
“Heritage home on Gouin Blvd — large move with antique furniture, a piano, and three floors of belongings. CNS brought four movers and a 26-foot truck. They wrapped every piece of furniture individually, protected the hardwood floors, and padded every doorframe. Not a single scratch. Worth every penny.”
Jacques R.
Sault-au-Récollet, Gouin Blvd
“Moved my mother from her family home in Bordeaux-Cartierville to a senior residence. CNS was incredibly patient — they let her take her time saying goodbye to the house, helped label everything for the smaller space, and handled fragile items with real care. The senior discount was a nice touch too.”
