Moving in Martindale, Calgary: the details that matter
Streets, parking and the truck
Martindale Boulevard runs the LRT tracks through the middle, with Martindale Drive, Martin Crossing Drive and Martha's Way as the other collectors and the Martinvalley, Martingrove and Martinview roads and crescents branching off. Driveways are short, so we park on the crescent with cones and keep clear of the LRT crossings.

Attached garages are common, and many basements are finished as separate suites with side entrances.

If the basement suite is part of the move, tell us up front: the side-entrance stairwell is usually narrow and steep, and we will plan a separate carry path so upstairs and downstairs belongings never mix on the truck.
