Moving Advice/Tips

Moving Tips

 

What truck size should you order for your upcoming Vancouver move? 1 ton or 5 ton truck, maybe you are even considering a cargo van for very small moves? Need to consolidate your shipment for cross Canada moving services in a semi trailer?

1 ton moving truck

Deciding on what moving truck size to choose will depend on more than simply the amount of furniture you have. The distance and the time frame you have available will also make a difference. But here are some general guidelines to help you help us choose the proper moving truck size for your movers to serve you. 1-2 bedroom apartments usually require a 1 ton truck as long as the distance from point A to point B is not to great, 1-5 kilometers in downtown Vancouver is a average. This usually includes the West End, Yaletown, Gas Town, East Vancouver, Kitsilano, North and West Vancouver (please be advised however that the Lion's Gate bridge might warrant the use of a 5 ton moving truck, especially if the move needs to be executed in rush hour), please advise us before hand if a no travelling time discount was offered to you.

5 ton moving truck

This is the largest truck size available (short of tractor trailers better suited to cross Canada Long Distance moving companies) This truck size is for larger than 2 bedroom suites or longer distance moves. Even if the truck is not filled to the maximum this is sometimes the best option to save on traveling time, especially if the difference between the original and destination address is more than 15 km. Sometimes a 5 ton truck is appropriate for moves to Coquitlam, White Rock , Surrey, Richmond, Burnaby, New Westminster, Langley and Abbotsford areas.

Best Time to Move

The best time to move basically depends on 3 parameters. The date, the time and the season. Try stay away from the end of the month if possible. Getting the first spot in the morning is best, next best moving spot is between 1-3 PM. Avoid moving on holidays and the winter months if possible. It's also a good idea to avoid moving late at night as your movers might be very tired and it makes the job take longer.

 

Vancouver Packing Supplies and Moving Boxes

HTML clipboard Looking for boxes and packing supplies in Vancouver or any major North American cities? Whether you need our professional, dependable, reliable  movers to help you with your move or not. It is always a good idea to buy (or find for free) some good condition boxes and packing supplies. In some cases the appropriate moving boxes and corrugated cardboard cartons can save a few hours on the cost of your move. We also sell all related accessories like packing tape, bubble wrap, packing peanuts, wardrobes, plastic moving crates and much much more! Please visit our Vancouver Packing Supplies, cartons and corrugated boxes pages for more details. Another new very handy option is recyclable plastic moving crates, bins and totes. The movers can do all packing for you and this will save the environment in addition to saving you money since the plastic boxes are made from 100% recyclable plastic and are reusable again and again. This is sometimes the best solution for corporate office moves as the company can purchase the recyclable plastic boxes and use them again without having to purchase moving boxes from their movers every time.

 

Movers Reviews

It's sometimes a good idea to read reviews on a moving company although one must be cautious about judging the firm to harshly because in many cases the reviews might written by competitors....however,  it can also be a fairly good indication off the moving company's past record and experience. BBB movers reviews are also useful but again, since the BBB is a paid membership association that mainly caters to the public and not actual member moving companies, the reviews can sometimes be distorted and not necessarily fair to genuinely professional movers. The same applies for long distance moving reviews, in that case one might want to check the movers record with the BBB and review cites in all major Canadian cities from Vancouver, Toronto, Ottawa, Calgary, Montreal, Edmonton, Halifax, St Johns and so on. All these cities have regional better business bureau offices that have records positive or not on local movers. While movers review sites in larger cities have more information, smaller local cities and long distance service can also be found for reference. Verifying the firms credentials and reviews could also be added to your moving checklist.

Top 10 Moving Tips

We have vast moving experience in Vancouver and the lower mainland that dates back to 1994. We have pretty much seen all possible scenarios and situations that might arise during our client's relocation and have come up with a list of the most important factors that will positively impact your moving experience and help your Vancouver Movers help you. Some of these moving tips are especially helpful for hiring movers in the lower mainland but they should also apply to the vast majority of major Canadian metropolitan areas. If you follow these top 10 moving tips your move should get executed with as little stress and glitches as possible regardless of any Vancouver moving companies you might choose to hire.

 

  1. Take the pets and the kids somewhere away from the moving location. It is too easy for them to get injured in the path of the movers
  2. Leave the hallways and pathways clear of any object be they large or small. Even a loose piece of wrapping paper can cause the movers to slip and injure themselves and/or damage the furniture or surrounding walls.
  3. Make sure all Vancouver moving boxes and packing supplies are closed and sealed. Open boxes don't pack very well in a moving truck and waste space and packing time adding to your Vancouver Moving bill.
  4. Reserve street access for the moving truck. Vancouver is notorious for it's parking bylaws and so are building managers, especially in the West End, Yale town, Gas Town and False Creek. Put up some cones so that the moving truck can park near the entrance of your residence. This will reduce the amount of meters the movers need to walk and will result in a more economical final bill.
  5. Reserve a lot of elevator time and giver yourself plenty of flexibility. Book the elevator an hour before the movers are scheduled to arrive as they can both be too early or too late...allow 2 extra hours of time on both the origin and destination address to allow for eventualities.
  6. Let your Vancouver Movers do their job, they are true professionals and know what they are doing, trying to help most often makes things go slower and more cumbersome.
  7. Pack your food items at the last minute, if the movers put your food and perishable items at the from of the truck it will take until the end of the move to get to them, and in Vancouver summers most of the food will be un-thawed by then...
  8. Try to put everything in boxes, disassemble and try to keep loose items to a bare minimum.
  9. Try to book well in advance, this will give you the best spot, try to stay away from the end of the month, late afternoon and holidays.
  10. Try to be courteous and friendly to your Vancouver Moving experts, they work very hard and it's a very demanding job.

Movers Canada

While we specialize in moving services in and around the lower mainland, we also are one of Canada's top Movers. We can handle your long distance move within Canada or the USA.

The reason for this are customs documentation and paperwork needs. For relocation in Canada it is recommended to use a Canadian moving company as it will be more appropriate and suited to your moving needs. USA and cross Canada border moves should be booked in the country of origin if possible and based on the moving firm's location.

Vancouver Moving Companies Cooperative Moves

We also sometimes need to work with other industry leaders that are not actually local but entirely different entities. We also need to cooperate with the best movers across Canada for long distance moves since while we have locations in Vancouver, Calgary, Edmonton, Ottawa, Toronto and Montreal, obviously we can't cover every little outskirts and municipalities in Canada.
