House move from Calgary to Vancouver Island
Real Estate Movers came recommended by a neighbour. When we first contacted Victor, our plans were still up in the air; we did not have a move date or destination address, nor did we know the exact contents. Victor was very patient and flexible throughout the planning process. A week or so before the scheduled move, we bought a house. So asked Victor if he could do both moves, and store the contents for a couple of weeks. Of course, he was able to oblige, changing from a 5-tom truck to a semi and container, which could double as storage. He offered packing on an hourly basis, which we used for the kitchen and garage. I did not opt for the full insurance coverage. Victor and his Ukrainian crew turned up on time, were pleasant to deal with and worked tirelessly. Unfortunately, I cannot give a top rated review, because there was some minor damage. There were chips in the wall and floor where the crew had to move a large heavy and awkwardly shaped treadmill up a narrow stairwell. Plus there were breakages and dents in three items that turned up. The cost of the damage was well below the cost of the insurance coverage. Nevertheless, Victor offered a discount to cover some of the repairs. Given the size and complexity of the move, I do not have any real complaints, The overall quote, including the move, packing (time and materials) and storage was less than that of other companies we approached. Overall we would recommend Victor and his crew.
