Calgary Moving Company: All Services
Eleven services, one price structure. Here is how to tell which one you need.
Calgary Moving Company: All Services - how it works
As a Calgary moving company, we bill every job the same way, namely an hourly rate set by crew size, plus one hour of truck time, with a two-hour minimum. What changes between services, however, is the planning, the equipment and the paperwork. Think of an elevator booking for a condo, a certificate of insurance for an office building, or a piano board for a piano. Choose the service that matches your move and then the page will tell you exactly what it includes and what to expect.
Choose your service
Same published rates on every one. What differs is the planning and the gear.
Residential Moving
Houses, condos, townhomes and everything in them - packed properly, then carried carefully and set down where you actually want it.

Commercial & Office Moving
Office, retail and warehouse relocations planned around your downtime rather than ours.
See what's included →
Local Moving
Moving across town or across the street: billed by the hour, so the clock stops as soon as we finish.
See what's included →
Apartment & Condo Moving
The apartment moving company in Calgary that books the elevator and files the insurance first, then protects the lobby before the first box moves.
See what's included →
Senior Moving
Unhurried moves for seniors and families, including the sorting and the donations and setting the new place up before we leave.

Packing Services
The day before your move, a crew packs what you tell us to, whether one kitchen or the whole house.
See what's included →
Long-Distance Moving
Calgary to Edmonton, to the mountains, or across a province line: one crew and one truck, door to door.
See what's included →
Piano & Specialty Moving
Pianos, safes, hot tubs, treadmills and the one piece nobody else will touch, moved with the right gear and enough people.
See what's included →
Furniture & Single Item Moving
One couch, a bedroom set, or the last few things, moved for the two-hour minimum rather than a padded-out day.
See what's included →
Same-Day & Last-Minute Moving
Possession moved up, a lease ended early, a mover who did not show: call and then if a crew is free today, it is yours.
See what's included →
Moving Labour & Loading Help
You have the truck, so we bring the people who know how to load it and then nothing shifts on the highway.
See what's included →Moving & Storage
A gap between move-out and move-in, a house that is not ready, a downsizing with too much to keep: all planned as two legs rather than one long day.
See what's included →What movers cost in Calgary
Published rates, all-in totals by home size, and an estimator for your own move.

Questions
Questions about our Calgary moving company
Are you insured?
Yes. We carry cargo and liability coverage and we also issue a certificate of insurance naming your building or condo corporation whenever it is required. Alberta does not license movers, so insurance is the thing to verify with any company.
How much does a mover cost in Calgary?
Our rates are $130/hr for two movers and a truck, $170/hr for three and $230/hr for four, plus a one-hour truck fee. A two-hour minimum applies. Everything else, such as blankets, dollies, wrap and basic disassembly, is included.
Do you move outside Calgary?
Yes. Airdrie, Okotoks, Chestermere, Cochrane, High River, Carstairs, Balzac, Beiseker, Priddis, Longview and Black Diamond are all regular routes at local rates. We handle long-distance and interprovincial moves as well.
Can you move on short notice?
Often, yes, because we keep capacity for last-minute and same-day work. Call rather than emailing whenever your move is inside 48 hours.
