Few words about movers in Burnaby and Vancouver

Moving - is time consuming task and much depends on how well prepared client is and the access to the property. How far or close the truck can be parked. Honestly, we have seen some very not "moving friendly" buildings and complexes, where often you have to go thru a long hallway, long parkade or a winding pathway, to get to the property. Other important factors of cost are the size of the move and distance. Sometimes, a small job could take no time to load and unload, but it takes half hour or more just to get to the final destination. This usually applies to one or several pieces pick up and drop off. Here, we've put together a quick list of times, on how long it approximately takes to move.
  
Always plan and prepare your budget slightly higher then estimated or quoted

Average times for a moving company in Burnaby and Vancouver to load unload

These are average times it takes to load and unload a truck with our 2 experienced Burnaby movers. Add travel time (time it takes to get from A to B) to get total time.

  • Studio  - 45 min to an hour. Same time to unload (add more time if its a walk up or elevator)
  • 1 Bedroom basement / apartment - 1.5 - 2 hours. Same time to unload (add more time if its a walk up or elevator)
  • 2 Bedroom House / apartment - 2.5 - 3 hours average (add more time if its a walk up or elevator)
  • 3 Bedroom Apartment / house - 3 - 3.5 hours average / with 3 Movers in Burnaby
  • 4+ Bedroom House 4 - 4.5 hours / with 3 Burnaby movers
Save yourself time and money by having as much as possible packed into boxes and totes and be organized on a move day. Dealing with smaller items takes a lot of time to load and unload and can increase your final cost. 
Some moving companies in Burnaby offer flat rate, others charge hourly rate + travel time. Travel time of 1 hour is considered industry standard within Greater Vancouver Area. Hourly rates vary from $85 - $139/hr. 1 hour travel time is same as hourly rate. Be sure to ask about any surcharges or fees the company might charge, like: stair fee, heavy item fee, fuel surcharge etc. We recommend choosing a moving company in Burnaby, that does not have surcharges or hidden fees. Just do your homework and call around.  Driving directions to Signature Moving - Movers Burnaby

    As there are numerous tips and traps which ought to be remember while naming the movers right off the bat solicit them to demonstrate the document from the company enlisted and simply check if the Residential Movers Toronto isn't charging you any concealed cost and request the assessed cost and free statements and in the wake of getting full positive reaction at that point names them.
