Canada and USA Long Distance Moving Services

How to choose your movers for your long distance move across Canada and the USA? While there are dozens of Canadian long distance movers out there, it is important to be very careful when selecting what moving companies will take care of your precious furniture and belongings. How long have they been in business? How is their BBB record, what conditions are the moving trucks in, how large is the fleet? Are all the trucks fully equipped with moving blankets, straps and dollies?

 

Will your belongings and furniture be transported via semi or maybe a 5 ton moving truck? How experienced are the movers? You can actually have a good idea of the service by how fast your email will get answered and the attitude of the receptionist or the moving estimator. It might also be an idea to research the moving company's track record and maybe get some references since in this industry moving scams abound. So before choosing your Canadian moving company or USA moves, do your research well and you will greatly decrease your odds of having a bad move day whether it's a local move in Vancouver, Toronto, Montreal, Edmonton or Calgary, an auto transport move or a long distance move across Canada or the united states.

 

Long Distance Canada Moving Services


Small objects and furniture are not transported independantly but must be packed first. This Canada long distance moving operation usually takes place days or weeks before move day chosen by the Canadian Moving Company.

When the move gets executed by a professional Canada moving company, the packing is usually done by them while individuals might choose to pack items by themselves. While the second option is usually fine for local moves in major Canadian cities, for cross Canada/USA long distance moving services it is better to leave the job to national relocation experts. Of course pack and move will result in higher costs but this is the best option for overseas and cross continental North American relocation and moving services.

Moving and packing containers used are often made of plastic crates (recyclable new moving system) or corrugated cardboard boxes that are unfolded when purchased/delivered but can be ufolded to their full cubic feet dimensions. Boxes and cartons must be sealed with adhesive tape, especially for long distance moves across Canada, North America or world wide.

The most fragile objects, especially dishes are generally best wrapped in bubble wrap or professional packing paper (since newspaper can cause stains that are difficult to clean after the move) to limit impact and shock that can occur on Canadian long distance moving services. To this effect, some of our trucks also carry specialised plastic crates and containers with padded interior walls. To facilitate cartons and boxes identification it is always recommended to either use a marker or stickers with appropriate destination room.

Loading the truck can be facilitated using moving dollies or handtrucks that will help going up and down stairs and safely climb up and down the curb and the truck's moving ramp. If the stairs are too narrow or to simply save time on the move, boxes and cartons are also sometimes carried by hand or through the windows or any sufficiently wide orrifice. Furniture and pianos also sometimes need to be moved by the windows with ropes, chains or hoists. On some rare occassiona a crane also needs to be used. Some Canadian moving companies are already equiped with the furniture moving cranes but usually they have to be rented either at the client's expense or to be included in the moving company's final bill.

To avoid damage to the furniture on your cross canada long distance moving service, the furnishings will need to be secured to the truck walls with straps and hooks. Heavy moving blankest or quilts will also need to be utilized to protect your items during the move. Some very large furniture items will also need to be dissassembled and reasssembled, this is especially the case for office moving wether local in major Canadian cities (Vancouver, Toronto, Ottawa, Edmonton, Calgary, Montreal) or for long distance commercial relocations.
