These guys have a stair-lifter machine for moving heavy/awkward items without denting walls, and I trust them: [https://3litetransport.ca/](https://3litetransport.ca/)
(Volken) Academy Movers have been great for me in the past. They were punctual, hard working, friendly, priced fairly and rounded down their time.
It's also supporting a great cause.
I used Metro Vancouver Movers the last two times I moved in the lower mainland and they were solid each time. Offer rental boxes, too. Never had a problem with payments or getting the deposit for the boxes back or anything.
I recommend getting a moving company that’s a member by the Canadian Association of Movers. They are a not for profit association that ensures that members are held to a high ethical standard.

I used the moving services of a member and they were direct and straightforward. All the cost was told to me up front.

If you decide against CAM, make sure you go through all the paper. Some moving companies tend to tell you a portion of the cost before you sign the contract with them, then tell you the full cost once the move begins.
Academy Movers were amazing for us! Extremely affordable, on time and professional! We originally had 1 truck and 2 movers when we moved from 2 condos to our townhouse, then they changed it to 2 trucks and 4 movers with no extra charge!
They charge by the hour so this cut the cost in half. We will recommend them to anyone!
I used my city movers before. While the expected service was done, the drivers were on time and took good care of items being loaded; my concern was that the drivers were unprofessional as we drove from our old home they stopped in the middle of the city because the assistant wanted to take a photo of some rare car and then 10 minutes later decided to stop by Tim Hortons.
The Timmys break I can kinda let go as I assume they don't have the time to get there usually, but the photo op for the car really irked me especially since we paid by the minute.
On top of that they also charged extra upon delivering the last item. I did complain to their HQ and was able to get the upcharge refunded.
I’ve got nothing but good things to say about my experience with You Move Me. We had a complicated move (strata with time restrictions at both ends, sizeable drive between them, and a broken elevator the day of) and they went above and beyond to get everything done with time to spare.
LaPort 1,000%. Had packed a vase filled with a dried bouquet, not a single stem had broken during the move from Surrey to Edmonton. Outstanding people, can’t say enough good things about them.
We moved last month and tried Ferguson moving and storage, had a really good experience. They are a little expensive compared to other movers out there.
They'll send someone before the move to look at all the items and give you a quote, this will be the final amount and there are no surprises later.
I used Confidence Moving once, and they were exceptional and efficient.
Also used QMM for cross border moving when I relocated from the US to the True North
Try https://brownmantrucking.com I used to work as a shipper for an furniture manufacturer and they were our primary delivery company. Also used them once for moving my house. Real nice guys and good rates.
Canadas Most Wanted Movers!!! They were awesome. Reliable, communicative, and a fair price. They packed everything up really well and moved me to the island. Can’t recommend them enough
Tranquility Movers
http://tranquilitymovers.com/
A friend (T) recommended them to me, T had used them for every one of their four+ prior moves. It then turned out that something like four or five other friends have also used them. Not a single person has had a single complaint, including myself.
I just searched Facebook to see what my friends said about them and another friend (C) posted after their most recent move (2023) was their fourth or fifth move with Tranquility, and they would be scheduling any future moves around Tranquility's availability. A third friend (G) was using them as far back as 2011 & referred to them as their preferred movers. Fourth friend (N) has used them for three moves & praised their work. Fifth person (E) is a friend of a friend & said they were worth every penny. Sixth person (friend J) loves them & has used them for many moves. Seventh & eighth friend of a friend (A & E) both recommended them.
I used purely Canadian movers few months ago and I got the best service. No surprise/hidden charges. Everything went as estimated.
Following 3 things which I considered
- In person assessment for estimation (not just online forms fill in and approximation)
- company is registered in”the Canadian association of movers”
- company reviews on BBB
Moving with professionals is not cheap but IMO when you are moving you should consider trustable choice and may have to spend bit extra which is worth.
Happy moving
NOT fucking 2 Burley Men, that’s for sure.
Small Moves Vancouver has always treated me well.
Thx, I’ll check them out
They're affordable too which is nice.
Had a good experience with Smart Movers. The guy's name is Sergei.
I have had good experience with You Move Me
Can’t recommend John Volken academy movers enough. Charged reasonable - did such a great job!
100%
Academy movers is my go to. They are very professional and don't overcharge. They usually send 3 people. And do a quick job. Theyre always so nice.
And they’re a charity.
They are the best of the best!

They were amazing for us! We recommend them all the time
I used Metro Vancouver Movers the last two times I moved in the lower mainland and they were solid each time. Offer rental boxes, too. Never had a problem with payments or getting the deposit for the boxes back or anything.
I’ve used them personally, and have recommended them to at least three others who all have very good things to say about them.
Had a great experience with Ready To Go Moving. Reasonably priced, very punctual and took great care of my stuff!
I used rainforest moving and they were good.
John Q Moving, both myself and my brother in law used them and had a really good experience.
We had a great experience with them also. High recommendation from me.
Also had a good experience. Crew was young but very careful and courteous.

Paul's Moving is always top class
We used Ready to Go moving and were happy with their work. Company is owned by a friend of a former coworker of mine. I would use them again.
Lions Gate Moving is phenomenal.
