A typical 2-bedroom home moving from Vancouver to Calgary (about 1,000 km) costs $3,500-$6,000 including packing, loading, transport, and delivery. We provide binding estimates after conducting a thorough inventory, so you know the exact cost upfront with no surprise charges. Additional services like packing, extra insurance, or storage are quoted separately.
Transit times depend on the distance and route. Within Western Canada: BC to Alberta typically takes 2-3 days, Alberta to Manitoba takes 3-4 days, and BC to Manitoba takes 5-7 days.

Absolutely! We offer short-term and long-term storage solutions if there's a gap between your move-out and move-in dates. Your belongings can be stored in our secure, climate-controlled facilities at either origin, destination, or both. Storage is charged monthly and we can deliver to your new home whenever you're ready. This is common for cross-country moves where closing dates don't align perfectly.
We offer two coverage levels for long-distance moves. Basic carrier liability (included) covers $0.60 per pound per item. Full-value protection (recommended for long-distance) means we repair, replace, or reimburse the current market value of damaged items. Most customers choose full-value protection for interprovincial moves. We also recommend reviewing your homeowner's or renter's insurance as they may provide additional coverage during your move.
While we specialize in Canadian interprovincial moves across BC, Alberta, and Manitoba, we can coordinate cross-border moves through our network of licensed international carriers.

Client Story: From Northern Alberta to Calgary
A recent move highlights our dedication. A client relocating her family from a small northern Alberta town to Calgary needed more than a standard moving service. With children, delicate heirlooms, and a long journey ahead, she needed a company she could trust.
We began by offering full packing services, carefully wrapping fragile and sentimental items. On moving day, our crew arrived on time, greeted the family, and efficiently loaded the truck. Each item—from furniture to keepsakes—was handled with care to ensure nothing was damaged.
After a safe overnight stop, our team navigated highways, weather conditions, and long hours to deliver everything in perfect condition. Upon arrival in Calgary, we coordinated with the family to ensure the home was ready. Our movers placed all items exactly where they wanted them, making the transition effortless.
For this family, the move was strong, efficient, and dependable, with upfront pricing and no hidden costs.
