Looking for Calgary Movers?

 
Calgary is definitely a booming town. For that reason for the past few years there has been a proliferation of office buildings being constructed and numerous new companies appeared on the Calgary landscape. When choosing movers one must choose carefully. While Calgary might boast numerous moving companies, you have to make sure to pick the right one! In order to do that you need to make some informed decisions. calgary.png

 

What truck size is needed? How many men? Pack and Move? On what date?

The truck size will depend on the office location and physical importance. Small office moving locally within Calgary can use 1 ton trucks without power tailgate with 2-3 men. One load is usually sufficient. Larger offices will require a 5 ton truck, power tailgate and at least 3 men.

Should you pack yourself or use the movers? Packing does add to the cost of the move but the insurance coverage will be better saving you money in the eventuality that something goes wrong. Additionally, items packed by professional Calgary movers will actually make the move go more quickly and efficiently, in the case of an hourly move, using packing services sometimes winds up costing less. As an added bonus, you can reuse the boxes free of charge the next time you move.

What date should you move on? Just like residential moving,this city gets very busy at the end of the month, so we recommend you move mid month. Things are more relaxed then, the workers are "fresher" and there is more room for error. We offer mid month discounts, please contact us fordetails.

How Calgary Moving Rates Are Calculated

Billing by the hour is recommended for local moves, especially in the downtown area, the rates for 2 men and the truck is $(Please call or email us for details) per hour. An average one bedroom apartment takes between 4-6 hours. If you require additional packing services before the move, the rate is $(Please call us or email us for details) per hour for 2 professional packers. It takes about 2-3 hours to pack an average one bedroom apartment. While it may seem like the packing service is adding to the cost of the move, in many instances it will save you money because move execution actually goes faster when prepared in advanced by seasoned professional movers.


Flat rate billing can be a tricky proposition because both the moving company and the client have to come to a mutual agreement. Invariably, someone will get the shorter end of the stick at the end of the move, could be the moving company working too long and getting a ridiculously low hourly rate or could be the customer paying an outrageous hourly rate because the job got completed too quickly. Flat rate billing is only recommended for people or businesses with extensive experience in the moving industry in general.

Billing by the load is fine for long distance services, anything leaving Calgary to Toronto, Vancouver, Montreal, Ottawa or Edmonton is billed this way. The load is billed on the weight of the shipment plus scale fees and various small extra moving fees, please contact us for further details. Cost per pound varies between 50 cents to a dollar, this rate can change according to the timing, nature of shipment, origin and destination addresses and if you order pack and move or simple relocation.
