Moving Services
BCMovers professional moving services will prepare you and consult beforehand about times to arrive and where to park. On the day of the move, our crew will explain to you the process and help pack anything that is required. For objects that require disassembly, the crew will carefully disassemble it and then wrap it to prevent any damage to your belongings or the property you are moving from. For objects that require special attention, our crew has extensive experience and materials to handle all kinds of different requirements. In the past, we have moved safes, concrete balls, delicate antiques and countless pianos, not to mention hundreds of other heavy or fragile belongings which customers were worried about.
We will go through your belongings and have a basic list. For many moves, customers have some type of system which they use to organize their belongings and where they will be placed in the new residence. If you need any help with unpacking, please let us know. Our crew will assume that you want help with reassembly of any items but if you would prefer to do anything yourself, let us know.
After arrival at the residence, our crew will begin unpacking and reassembling your furniture while communicating with you so that you understand what is going on and can provide any instruction if there are special requirements.

A list of frequently asked questions to help you understand how it works.
1. When is the best time to move?
The summer period is the most expensive as most people are moving their residences at this time. Especially near the end of the month or the beginning of the month (from about the 25th to the 5th) are most expensive and most quickly to be fully booked.
By contrast, moves in the fall or the winter are generally much more affordable and tend to have availability.
2. How long does it take to move?
Moving time will depend on many things including amount of furniture, number of movers, any special items, access or special conditions.
Here are the average times we have discovered from years of moves:
| Residence | 2 Movers | 3 Movers |
| Bachelor | 3 to 4 hours | Not normally required |
| Junior 1 Bedroom Apt. (1 person) | 3 to 5 hours | Not normally required |
| Bedroom Apt. (1 person) | 4 to 6 hours | Not normally required |
| 1 Bedroom Apt. (2 person) | 5 to 9 hours | 4 to 6 hours |
| 2 Bedroom House | 7 to 9 hours | 5 to 7 hours |
| 2 Bedroom Apt. (2 person) | 5 to 8 hours | |
| 2 Bedroom Apt. (Family) | 6 to 8.5 hours | |
| 3 Bedroom House | 7 to 9 hours | |
| 3 Bedroom Apt. | 8 to 10 hours |
For 4 bedroom houses and larger, we may recommend 4 movers or more to speed up the move.
For very large moves, we work with customers to find a balance between time spend and cost.
3. How is the cost of my move determined?
Moving costs are different depending on whether it is local, long-distance or corporate or warehousing. The following standards are widely applicable.
For local moves, cost is largely determined by the amount of time it takes.
For long-distance moves, which are almost always fixed price, they are determined by weight and distance.
For corporate moves, which are almost always fixed price, there are a lot of variables included which are discussed beforehand. These include window to move. The allowed time slots for corporate moves are often narrow and unforgiving. All of these, including a strategic plan for moving are discussed directly with clients for all corporate moves.
4. How and when should I pay?
Although there are rare exceptions, in general the flow is like this:
After receiving a quote -> Place a deposit to reserve a spot -> After move is completed, to pay the balance owned minus the deposit.
We accept most major forms of payment. If you are unsure though, you can call us during business hours to confirm at (604)317-1986
5. Can my possessions be stored temporarily?
Yes! Absolutely.
Contact us for short-term and long-term storage options.
BCMovers offers 24/7 monitored secured storage as an option to all our customers.
