Clear communication and careful handling
"
The whole process was seamless thanks to clear communication and careful handling. I had a few concerns about a glass cabinet and a piano, but the team took the time to explain how they’d protect them. They gave me a clear timeline and stuck to it, keeping me updated along the way. The level of care they gave each item was impressive, and not one scratch was left behind.

Local Moving
Moving across Edmonton might sound easy, it’s just a local move, right? But anyone who’s tried navigating a truck through Oliver during rush hour or squeezing into a Strathcona apartment loading zone knows it’s not that simple. Between narrow back alleys in Garneau, slippery winter roads in Mill Woods, and strict elevator bookings in downtown high-rises, local moves come with their own set of challenges.
The good news? Our movers actually live and work in Edmonton. They know which Whitemud exits to avoid, how to time a load-in without getting ticketed in Old Strathcona, and where the wide laneways are in Westmount. That kind of local know-how saves you time, money, and a ton of stress.
Piano Moving
It takes precision, planning, and a real respect for the instrument. Whether it’s an upright in a historic Glenora home or a baby grand on the top floor of a Whyte Avenue walk-up, we’ve moved it, carefully and professionally. No bumps, no drama, just experienced movers who know exactly what they’re doing.
Edmonton adds its own challenges. Narrow staircases in older homes, tight corners in downtown condos, and unpredictable weather are part of the job. That’s why we come prepared with the right equipment, proper padding, and time-tested techniques. A piano isn’t just heavy, it’s personal. We treat it that way.
Commercial Moving
Tight timelines, sensitive equipment, and the need to minimize downtime, we know the drill. Whether it’s a boutique office in Ritchie or a full-scale relocation from a downtown tower on Jasper Avenue, we keep your move organized, efficient, and right on schedule.
We coordinate with building managers, secure parking permits, and label everything for a seamless transition. Need an after-hours move in the Ice District? No problem. Moving delicate gear from a tech startup in Strathcona? We've got the dollies, padding, and steady hands for that too.
When you're running a business, the last thing you need is a moving day meltdown. We’re here to keep things running smoothly, so you can stay focused on what matters most.
Packing Service
Packing isn’t just stuffing things into boxes. It’s about protecting what matters and making moving day a whole lot less stressful. Our professional packing services take the pressure off, whether you’re short on time, worried about breakables, or just want the job done right.
We bring everything: sturdy boxes, bubble wrap, packing paper, and strong tape. Then we pack with care, right down to the last teacup. Want us to handle the entire house in Glenora? No problem. Just need help with the kitchen or a few delicate items in a Strathcona walk-up? That’s fine too. No pressure, no judgment — just experienced movers making sure your belongings are safe, secure, and ready for the road.
Storage
Need a place to store your belongings between moves or during renovations? We’ve got you covered. Our trusted storage partners have secure, accessible facilities throughout Edmonton, from southside locations near Mill Woods to convenient units in the west end and north side.
Whether you’re looking for short-term storage while you transition between homes, or a longer-term solution for extra furniture, we can help you find the right fit. Climate-controlled options, 24/7 access, and flexible unit sizes make it easy to store your items with confidence.
Ask us about storage during your move, we’ll coordinate everything so it’s seamless from pickup to drop-off.
The best Edmonton moving company: our story
Edmonton was the second major city where we opened a branch. Our founder moved to Edmonton from back east to attend the University of Alberta and soak up the vibrant life in Strathcona. He fell in love with the city, from brisk 30-below winter night walks to sunny spring afternoons at Whitemud Park, hunting for ancient fossils along the riverbank.
Our first Edmonton Movers location was on Jasper Avenue, where we proudly served the city for years, until the digital age made traditional downtown offices a thing of the past. Today, our partners cover the entire Edmonton Metropolitan Region, from Leduc to Fort Saskatchewan, and from Stony Plain to Sherwood Park.
Long distance moving to and from Edmonton
With branches across Canada we are able to offer frequent and economical moving service for all size moves between all points in BC, Alberta, and Toronto
