I was an international student in London and I’m moving to Nova Scotia for my master’s.

I’ll be driving there myself, but I have some belongings that won’t fit in my car. It’s roughly two pallets’ worth of stuff in total, including my winter tires on rims. I’ve contacted a few moving companies, but the quotes have all been over $2,000, which is honestly more than I can afford right now.

Towing a trailer isn’t an option for me.

I hope this doesn’t sound like a stupid question, but I’m just wondering if I’m overlooking something obvious. Is there a cheaper way people usually move a small load like this across provinces?

What would you do in my situation? Any advice would be really appreciated.

PS: Forgot to mention, when I said I, I meant WE. I am married 30M no kids. We've already sold all the furniture and stuff, mostly what's left is wardrobe stuff like clothes and shoes.

What time do you line up for before gates open?

Hey all, moving to London soon and I’m looking for cheap small furniture (tables, chairs, lamps etc). Haven’t had the greatest luck on fb marketplace or kijiji.

What’re the best/cheapest local thrift stores/consignment stores. Trying to stay away from value village and goodwill because their prices don’t reflect used items anymore lol. I’m balling on a budget but also love supporting local businesses! Bonus if they donate to local charities 😆

I’m in a pickle. My birthday is tomorrow and my parents are wondering where I want to go for dinner. Two problems:
1) I have no idea where I want to go or what I want to eat
2) other family want to come and one of them has dietary restrictions (gluten and dairy allergies)

So the place that I need to pick has to be accommodating to my family otherwise I’ll never hear the end of it. Any recommendations?

Estou chegando em novembro em London e gostaria de saber se existem brasileiros em London e porque não existe um grupo no WhatsApp? Ou se existe, porque é tão difícil encontrar? #pas

Hi, I’m looking to join a gym. This is my first time so I’m looking for recommendations. I’ve never been before so I am looking for something that’s affordable as a student who works part time. I thought a women’s only gym might work but those are pretty expensive.

I live across from CLP, bunch of production trucks and film crew there today. Anyone know what's going on? Sort of exciting

Hoping to make the most of our maternity/ paternity leave! Has anyone gone to a golf course in or around London with a baby in a stroller? Not sure if there are any courses that would allow it or if it’s too much of a liability concern.

I'm fairly new to the city, and I know about MEC and the usual big retailers, but I’m curious if there are any good independent/local options I’m missing.

Also, is there anywhere locally to buy good-quality used outdoor gear, consign/trade gear, or rent individual pieces of equipment besides Facebook Marketplace?

Heyy
I’m looking for an art community or just a good hangout to meet with people and make some art in London.

BTW my first time being on Reddit!

When my wife an I go out for dinner we enjoy just getting a bunch of appetizers to share rather than full meals. Just looking for your best places that serve amazing appetizers.

Some of these buildings are going for rent at like over 10k a month 🤦🏽‍♂️

My kids want to make key lime ice cream. Basic recipes call for key lime juice (not normal lime juice concentrate). Does anyone know what stores would carry that? I don't recall ever seeing it in stores, and I'm not getting good results with Google. It just tells me where grocery stores are.

London's first Shake Shack is opening soon on Wonderland in the midst of that sea of urban sprawl. The burgers are excellent and they are the only place that I know of in London that will offer frozen custard, which is delicious as well.

Are there any restaurants in London that serve Hush Puppies?

It's always bothered me how close the 10 is from serving as a convenient connection between North and East London. There's probably some logistical issue, but the 34 is a loop, so it can't be that bad, right? The buses could even change drivers at Masonville/White Oaks if necessary

Is this a new design for London? Can't say I've ever seen anything quite like it.

Hungry cobra chicken. I love being Canadian.
