Providing moving services coast to coast Canada-wide

Stressing about the big move? We have you covered! Here are some quick tips to prepare for the big day;

  1. Start Early
    Begin packing at least 2-3 weeks in advance to avoid last-minute stress.
  2. Sort & Purge
    Go through each room and donate or sell items you no longer need.
  3. Gather Packing Supplies
    Stock up on boxes, packing tape, bubble wrap, and markers for labelling.
  4. Pack Room by Room
    Tackle one room at a time. Label boxes clearly with their contents and destination room in your new home.
  5. Protect Fragile Items
    Use bubble wrap, packing peanuts, or towels to wrap delicate items like glassware, dishes, and electronics.
  6. Disassemble Furniture
    Take apart large furniture (like beds and tables) to save space and prevent damage.
  7. Pack an Essentials Box
    Set aside a box with all the items you’ll need on the first day in your new home, such as toiletries, clothes, and important documents that should be with you until you reach your destination.
  8. Secure Important Documents
    Keep your passports, birth certificates, and moving-related paperwork in a safe, easily accessible place.
  9. Label & Colour Code
    Label each box with its contents and room location. Consider using color-coded stickers for easy sorting.
  10. Take Photos
    Before packing, take photos of the back of electronics and furniture setups for easy reassembly later.

Please arrange with us the order of moving and give us prior notice of furniture and fragile items that we will need to be extra careful with!
