Are there any good moving companies in Edmonton, Alberta?

Question

I've heard a lot of awful things about movers in Edmonton, however I find that I am in a predicament with moving this month, as nearly all my friends are either moving themselves or helping others. Can anyone recommend someone who is affordable but actually did a good job? Also, I live on a 4th-floor walkup, so that is a concern as well.

Answer 1

As with any moving company you need to do your research. A good place to check is with BBB of Edmonton. When a company is registered with them if something happens you at least a place to lodge a complaint for resolution. I would not suggest that you use some of site like Craigs List or Kijiji for your move - these are your personal belongings and you need to find someone you can trust with your privacy.

There are several BBB movers listed in Edmonton - all you need to do is call them for a quote. If you can try for a week day and you may find the rates a little cheaper than peak end of week and weekend rates. If you're flexible as to times and dates it helps sometimes. Unfortunately you are now in peak season when moving companies are at their busiest.

Make sure you are very clear when explaining your move and get your estimates on paper!! Make sure that you are present no matter which company use. If you feel like they are not doing their job (eg just doing things in slow motion) you need to call their office and let them know especially if you are paying by the hour and not flat fee. Quick reminder - find out if something breaks whose insurance pays for it. - will your tenant's insurance cover moves? What's covered?

Here is the website to BBB of Edmonton which lists the companies and their profiles along with any disputes and resolutions. I did notice a couple of companies I would have no problems using including Two Amigos which I have used when I moved my daughter and they did give excellant service - fast and efficient. It's always in your own best interest if  you base your choice on BBB results.
