Check Their Calgary BBB record

While all Calgary moving companies may not be members of the BBB, a lot of them are, just call the local BBB office or do an online search and find out if they have any outsanding disputes that are not resolved. If they are not members it's not a problem either because their reputation will be reflected either way, however good or bad it may be. While they may have other moving company branches in other Alberta and Canadian cities, make sure to verify their local Calgary reputation as other locations might be run and managed by totally different staff and movers.

Calgary Office Moving

Calgary Office Moving:

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. Your company might just be one of them!

When choosing a moving company for an office move 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. 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 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, Calgary 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 for details.
