Moving in Erin Woods

Movers in Erin Woods, Calgary: what to expect

In short, here is what makes moves in Erin Woods go smoothly. The community is boxed in by rail lines to the north and west, so the only truck routes in are from 52 Street SE or from 36 Street SE via Erin Woods Boulevard SE..

Rail tracks wrap two sides of Erin Woods, so freight crossings and Peigan Trail traffic can add ten minutes to the approach; we build that into the schedule.

Your address is 15 minutes from central Calgary, so that drive sits inside the single truck hour on the quote. As a result, you never pay it twice, and never at the hourly rate in both directions.

Local knowledge

Moving in Erin Woods, Calgary: the details that matter

Streets, parking and the truck

Erin Woods Boulevard SE connects to 36 Street SE, and Erin Park Drive (community hall at number 83), Erin Circle and Erin Meadows Green SE serve the interior. Streets are 1980s width with front driveways and few lanes, so we park across the driveway apron and loop through the short closes rather than backing in.

The homes and buildings here

Of 2,350 dwellings in 2021, 41% were built 1981-1990 and 36% in 1991-2000. Stock is 81% single-detached bi-levels and two-storeys with attached single garages, 10% row houses, 2% semis and 5% apartments in buildings under five storeys, so almost every job is a house move with basement stairs.

Who moves in Erin Woods

Erin Woods had 6,790 residents in 2021, 21% under 15 and 36% immigrants; 72% of the 2,350 households own and only 8% of residents moved in the past year. Typical moves are three-bedroom bi-levels for growing families and first-time buyers arriving from apartments in Forest Lawn or Dover.

One tip for your Erin Woods move

Bi-levels dominate here and the split-entry landing is the pinch point: measure the landing turn before buying a new sectional, and let us know if the basement is a suite so we can stage its load separately.

“Fast, efficient, punctual and careful. Best moving experience I've had. I will use again and would recommend.”

TriLionsRoar ★★★★★

“Prompt with their initial response, very communicative up until the move date, and showed up 15 minutes early. Truck was clean and professional, as they were as well, and they had all the supplies needed. Quick yet careful in their loading and unloading. Was a little nervous finding them on Kijiji but they quickly grew my trust. I have cancer and can’t do the heavy stuff anymore. Was such a relief having them make this final big stuff move so easy. Thank you Victor and your partner. Can’t say enough good things. Wish you much success as you deserve it. And if you’re moving… HIRE them!!!”

Russell Langley ★★★★★

“VC Movers helped me and my housemate move at the start of August. They have also helped two lots of friends move earlier this year, too. They are exceptional; our friend group recommended them to each other, and I recommend them to everyone who will listen! ❤️ If you have antiques or anything that requires a very gentle and careful touch, they will treat it with the utmost respect. If you are an anxious mover, VC Movers will take care of you. They are kind, communicative, very hard-working and will have your belongings packed, transported and offloaded in no time. They are very well-priced, too. Thank you so much, friends; your hard work and care is so appreciated! We will always recommend you 😁”
