Made us feel totally taken care of

This team made us feel totally taken care of. Every question we had, they answered. Every worry we voiced, they addressed. They moved my grandmother’s hutch with two layers of padding and secured it so it wouldn’t budge. They also found my cat hiding behind a dresser and helped me corral him gently into his carrier. That’s more than just movers, that’s kindness.

Save your money
Local doesn’t mean simple—not in East Van. Older homes with narrow hallways, staircases with tight turns, laneway access only, no parking in sight… we’ve seen it all. We know how to plan for it, how to work around it, and how to keep your move moving.
We’ve helped renters go from a basement suite near Knight Street to a new condo off Main. We’ve worked with families relocating within Grandview-Woodland. No matter how far you’re going—or how far you aren’t—we treat it with the same professionalism and care as a cross-city move.

Local Moving
If you’ve got a piano in East Van, chances are it’s lived a life. These aren’t showroom moves. They’re tight staircases, heritage homes with original floors, and basements that were never meant for 600-pound instruments. We’re ready for all of it.
Whether you’re moving an upright from a shared house near Clark or a grand piano from a third-floor walk-up off Fraser, we bring the right gear, a focused team, and a strategy that respects both the instrument and the home. It’s not just heavy. It’s yours. And we move it like that matters.

Commercial Moving
East Van businesses are independent, creative, and fast-moving—and so are we. From art studios and cafés to co-working spaces and storefronts, we’ve helped entrepreneurs and teams move without losing a day’s work. We know how to work with landlords, book elevators, and label everything to keep setup at your new space smooth.
Need to move after hours to avoid disrupting your clients? Have gear that needs special handling? No problem. Whether you're off Powell Street or tucked behind Kingsway, we move quietly, efficiently, and with the respect your business deserves.
Packing Service
Packing up in East Van often means digging through years of life. Maybe it’s a decades-old family home in Renfrew, or a creative studio that’s grown faster than your shelves. Either way, we know how to pack it properly, respectfully, and fast.
We offer full-service packing or just help where you need it most—fragile items, artwork, kitchens, or your vinyl collection. We use high-quality materials, not cheap boxes from the corner store. You don’t have to do it all yourself. We’ve got the materials, the method, and the muscle.
Storage
Our excellent storage partners have locations throughout the Lower Mainland.
The best East Van moving company: our story
Our roots run deep in this part of town. Before we expanded across the Lower Mainland, East Van was where we learned the ropes—moving couches through tight stairwells, dealing with old foundations, tricky parking, and more character homes than we can count.
We’ve worked out of converted warehouses off Clark, hauled boxes through Commercial Drive laneways, and earned our reputation one hard move at a time. These days, we operate with no storefront and no middlemen—just experienced movers who own their trucks, care about the outcome, and work hard to earn your trust.
East Van built our business. And we still treat every job here like it’s personal.
