Hands down the best moving company I've ever used. Daniel, Erik & Eric arrived on time if not early and got the job... done and all our stuff moved safely and so quick. They beat our last movers time by 90minutes! Please don't have any hesitations when booking these guys to move your stuff. We had massive tvs, sectionals and my wifes 500lb dresser not a problem at all. They took the time to protect our new house and furniture by wrapping too. Thanks so much for a great job! A++++read more

Ok- moving sucks- but if you hire this moving company it’ll suck a lot less. Not only were they efficient- They were... strong and actually hustling -I mean, sometimes running. I don’t know where they get the energy from but all I have to say is Daryl and Kayla were absolutely amazing. I am so impressed by both of them - I absolutely will use this company time and time again thank you so much.read more

When another moving company did not show up on the agreed upon date, I called Canadian Moving Services and they... immediately helped make a plan to get my things moved out of my apartment (with a tight timeline due to my lease ending). Eric and Francine were very professional and helpful throughout the process. Moe drove my items from Alberta to Nova Scotia and was very flexible and accommodating with timelines. All of my things were well padded and protected and the loading and unloading and inventorying process were smooth and efficient. When Moe came on delivery day, we ran into some problems with the size of the truck and some tight turns, but we happily worked together to create a plan to bring all the items to the new address anyway. He even left everything wrapped up for me (the items were staying in storage for a while) and gave me the moving blankets because he said he didn’t need them anymore.I was so impressed by Moe and highly recommend working with him for long haul moves!read more

I am so happy that I booked our move with this company. I have never had a move go so well with nothing broken or... damaged and came in under the quote. I would not hesitate to use this company again and highly recommend them. Thank you so much for the best service.read more

Fantastic service! Confirmation was done over the phone with Eric. The crew showed up on time even through the winter... blizzard. Darryl was the lead mover - he did an amazing job of fitting the belongings of a 4000sqft house into a small storage facility. He also delegated the crew really well. They used the time very efficiently and took minimal breaks. Highly highly recommended!read more

I have moved a lot. Internationally and locally. Francine pulled through for me in every way. She accommodated multiple... date changes. She packed all of my belongings with meticulousness and care. They moved me very efficiently, rebuilt my furniture, handled delicate items, arranged my whole home for me. It was a clean job without any breakage or damage. I am very particular and they allowed me to just direct and were accommodating to my needs and appeased literally every annoying request that I made. They all had calm and pleasant demeanours and made me feel really taken care of. This is the only moving company that I have ever dealt with that I would actually recommend. I was afraid to get the bill at the end of the day, but it was more than reasonable. White glove service.read more

I’m going to give you a review of this moving company before and after we move. Before: incredible service and... working with you has been unparalleled compared to ANY movers we’ve EVER USED JACKIE PRATT has been phenomenal, responsive? Right there away EVERY SINGLE TIME. Ask for Jackie when you plan your next move and at the very least use this company.read more

Had the absolute best experience moving because of this company! It's hard work and they certainly do work hard.... Darryll and Allan made it look easy though! These men did everything and with a smile on their face the whole time. Can't say enough about how great they were!read more

Without a doubt the crew deserves a 5-star review. Highly recommended! The entire process was flawless from getting a... quote to moving. Darrel, Matthew and Alan were efficient, enthusiastic and cheerful to work with. The rates are the most reasonable comparing to the other moving companies with good reviews. The only thing I would recommend for some improvements was that I had to call a second time to get an e-mail confirmation for booking when the first call was only a verbal confirmation on the phone, which was quite confusing and was rushed to hang up the phone. A staff called 2 days before the moving day to confirm the booking and realized they mistook my moving date a day early. Good thing everything sorted out and there was still available crew on the day we planned to move.read more

Will and Herman were awesome! It’s the first time I’d ever used movers and wasn’t sure what to expect at all. They were... very friendly and hustled butt all day and did everything they could to make my move as pain-free as possible. They even played interior designer and helped gauge where a couple of things went to help me out. Thanks guys, you made the day so much better!read more

We have moved several times and this was a very fast and efficient move. Quote was well done and there were no moving... surprises on the costs. All staff showed up exactly as promised. Packers were great and all breakables arrived with no damage. Movers were very fast so time to move was less than expected. One couch had some fabric soiling but the company organized cleaners and was cleaned up in no time. Highly recommend the Canadian Moving Services team.read more

I feel terrible that it has taken us this long to write a review. Unpacking and work got in the way I guess. Herman and... his crew were outstanding. We had them move us out of one home and into another a couple of days later. They were all very professional and might I add as strong as an Ox.Would we use this company again, that is an easy Yes! We are in our forever home so hopefully we wont need their services again. Thank You again Herman and your crew for making our move an easy one.read more

Jackie and Francine have been extremely helpful and incredibly accommodating despite some of our last minute requests... and date changes. Sometimes even working off shift! Remy and his crew came and packed up our entire house unbelievably well and extremely carefully yet so quickly and efficiently. Remy drove through the rain storm and delivered our things safely to BC. Due to the highway closures, he found out he was unable to head back home for an unknown amount of time, yet, he still had a smile on his face and continued to work hard to make sure all our furniture were put together better than they were before they were taken apart!Thank you to Jackie, Francine, and especially a big thank you to Remy for everything you guys have done for us especially during this difficult move and for relieving a lot of the stress of moving long distance! I would 1000000% recommend this company to anyone who is looking for a company to help with short or long distance moves.read more

We just used Canadian Moving Services inc for a house move from Edmonton to Vancouver Island. Erik U and Tyler gave us... a level of service that we have never experienced in previous moves. They were cautious, professional and went above and beyond our expectations. A lot of the items they were moving were large and extremely heavy and they accomplished the move with no damage to the contents or the house. I will highly recommend them to all friends and family.read more

I moved my house contents out with some friends and the following day when it came time to move out my garage contents... my back was so sore I could barely move. I started calling around the next morning and Eric sent 3 guys 2 hours later and moved the contents out of my old garage and into my new garage in 2 hours! These guys were so fast and I had some heavy stuff in that garage (motorcycle lift, tool box) they had no problem. Would absolutely hire this company again, many thanks for bailing me out! Merci Beaucoup!read more

I cannot recommend Canadian Moving Services enough. They are professional, detail oriented, and incredibly efficient... in all aspects of their service. Jackie and Lindsey in the office were fantastic with coordinating the move and providing quick responses to all inquiries along the way. On moving day, Darryl and his team were wonderful to work with. They were friendly, professional, and completed the job in a fraction of the time I had anticipated. I will recommend this company to family and friends, and will use their service again in the future.read more

I hired Canadian Moving Services for my moving on a hot summer day, July 10th 2021. I was moving in the city of... Edmonton, Alberta. 3 people, Remy, Dave And Martin worked very hard. Although it was very hot day, they were fast, strong, kind, and excellent to carry furniture and appliances making no damages.I have hired 3 companies for last 10 years for my moving in Edmonton and Canadian Moving Services with the 3 people was the best. I strongly recommend Canadian Moving Services for your moving.read more

Junior & Nick were extremely hard working to help me with my move. They took utmost care to ensure all my items were... transported, not a single item was missing or broken. Even though they were short a staff a member, it didn’t deter them as they worked relentlessly alongside me to help me complete my move. You could see their big hearts because of the intentionality behind making sure the move was seamless for me. Very grateful for their hard work and professionalism and incredible value.read more

Canadian Moving Services arranged for our move from Montreal to Quebec. Packing and transportation from Montreal was... done through a secondary company. Communication with Francine, the owner, was excellent throughout the whole process. Francine went above and beyond, reweighing our stuff in Edmonton to ensure that we were accurately charged. Eric and Matt moved our things into our apartment in record time, and were very fun to work with! Would 100% go through this company again!read more

Eric V at Canadian Moving Services saved our move. We originally hired another moving company who no showed and delayed... multiple times, until it was the day before we had to give up possession of our house and they again delayed. We contacted Eric and he got us out of the house that day and got us moved to another province within 2 days. He made sure everything was packed securely and helped us pack things we didn’t even think we would be able to take. Highly recommend!read more

Fabulous! I cannot say enough good things about this company! If you are looking for a mover search no further! When we... decided to move I did a lot of research (as I always do) as to my best bang for my buck as well as quality and service! After looking into a handful of large moving companies I decided on Canadian moving services and we are SO glad we did! Jackie came to our home to give us an estimate; she was so great to deal with and even gave me a garantee the weight would be within 10% of the estimate! The quote received was well below any of the other movers we had research and when I confronted those movers to match or beat their prices they said they can’t even come close!! So I book Canadian movers right away!On moving day 3 guys showed up, they were all professional and efficient, taking apart furniture and wrapping with care. We were so impressed to hear the actual weight was within 50lb of our estimate!! Upon arrival to our destination we had issues getting into our storage area as it was filled with snow and not been plowed! The crew was so professional and understanding in such an annoying circumstance! At the end of the day they even went out of their way to help us out! Eric the driver and his crew were so great and willing to help us out! After the move was completed we noticed a small amount of damage to our freezer. One quick email to Francine and a quote was quickly received to replace the door. We offered to just settled with what was fair in cash and within an afternoon it was settled! Just like that! We were beyond impressed! After a few months we had to plan a move back due to unforeseen circumstances and we did not hesitate to call up Jackie once again to start the moving process and without hesitation they gave us that unreal price once again and even helped us out with a second location pick up! We are so happy with the service we have received with Canadian movers and are recommending them to everyone we know for their up coming moves!read more

Company was recommended by our real estate agent. The movers (Matt and John) were great - they worked fast and worked... hard and everything arrived intact.

Saved the day!!!!! We had a move planned for our grandmother. When the first company “no showed”. We scrambled to find... a last minute rescue. With out hesitation Canadian Moving Services jumped to the rescue. They rearranged their schedule and fit us in. They arrived earlier than promised to start off. I have used a lot of moving companies over the years. I must say the team that came (Matt & Mike), by far exceeded all expectations. They were very pleasant, fast but careful and above all else very professional. Really came through last minute. Best part is it came under budget and cheaper than all companies we called (even last minute, after hours). We will be using and recommending Canadian Moving Services, for all future moves. Thank you !!!!read more
