The movers were consistently professional the entire time. No eye rolls, no attitude, just steady work and a willingness to do whatever was needed. Even when a box ripped, they repacked it without hesitation. Everyone showed pride in their work, and it really made a difference.

Local Burnaby movers, packers and more
Local Moving
Moving across Burnaby might seem straightforward, it’s just a local move, right? But if you’ve ever tried squeezing a truck into an underground parkade in Metrotown during a downpour, you know it’s not that simple. Between narrow laneways, condo elevator bookings, and busy intersections like Kingsway and Willingdon, there’s more going on than meets the eye.
The good news? Local movers who actually know Burnaby understand the layout. They know which streets back up fast, which buildings are sticklers for move-in times, and how to navigate the city's hidden challenges without delays or fines. That kind of local know-how saves you time, money, and stress.
Piano Moving
Piano moving in Burnaby takes more than strength. It’s a combination of experience, planning, and respect for the instrument. From uprights in classic Deer Lake homes to baby grands in high-rise condos near Metrotown, we’ve moved them all with care. No scratches, no stress, just careful work from people who know what they’re doing.
Burnaby comes with its own set of challenges. Tight stairwells, sharp condo corners, and unpredictable weather are all part of the job. That’s why we show up with the right equipment, use proper padding and dollies, and take our time where it matters. A piano isn’t just another heavy item. It’s something personal, and we treat it that way.
Commercial Moving
Commercial moves in Burnaby come with their own set of challenges: tight schedules, delicate equipment, and the need to minimize downtime. We understand what’s at stake. Whether it’s a small office move in Brentwood or a full-scale relocation from a Metrotown high-rise, we know how to keep the process smooth, efficient, and on track.
We work with building managers, arrange parking permits, and clearly label everything so nothing gets misplaced. Need an evening or weekend move? We’re flexible. Moving sensitive equipment? We bring the right padding, dollies, and experience to handle it safely. When you’re running a business, a smooth move keeps you ahead. That’s where we come in, quietly making it happen while you stay focused on your work.
Packing Service
Packing isn’t just about filling boxes. It’s about protecting what matters and making your move a lot less stressful. Our professional packing services take the guesswork and the strain out of moving day. Whether you're pressed for time, worried about breakables, or just want the job done right, we’re here to help.
We bring everything needed: strong boxes, bubble wrap, tape, and pack each item with care, right down to the last teacup. Need us to pack the whole home? No problem. Just the kitchen or a few fragile items? That’s fine too. No pressure, no judgment, just experienced help making sure your belongings are safe and ready for the move.
Storage
Our excellent storage partners have locations throughout the Lower Mainland.
The best Burnaby moving company: our story
We started out doing small moves in Vancouver’s West End, but it didn’t take long before Burnaby became a big part of our day-to-day. As more people heard about us, we found ourselves crossing Boundary Road more and more, helping folks move into condos near Metrotown, houses in Burnaby Heights, and new builds in Brentwood.
Burnaby felt like a natural fit. The mix of family homes, towers, and tight-deadline office moves kept things interesting, and our crews got to know the city inside and out. We learned where to park without blocking traffic, which buildings require elevator bookings, and how to keep things moving smoothly on a rainy moving day.
These days, Burnaby is one of our busiest areas. We’ve left storefronts behind and focused fully on moving, with experienced owner-operators who know the city and care about doing the job right. Vancouver may be where we started, but Burnaby is where we really grew up.
