Read the smallest rows with their counts beside them. A middle taken over a few dozen jobs moves with the jobs, and we publish it as measured rather than smoothing it.
Figures from 605 local moves in Edmonton, updated September 1, 2026. Medians and quartiles of what we invoiced, tax in, never averages. A local move is one whose pickup and at least one drop-off are both in Edmonton.

FAQs About Moving
Here are detailed answers to common questions about packing services in Edmonton.
What types of packing services do you offer?
We offer full packing, partial packing, and fragile-only packing for houses, condos, apartments, and townhomes. Whether you need your entire home prepared or only a few important areas, our packers provide organized and protective service.
Can you pack my kitchen and fragile items?
Absolutely. Kitchen packing is one of the most time-consuming parts of any move, and we specialize in protecting dishes, glasses, cookware, and delicate items. We wrap each piece using proper techniques to prevent damage.
Can I pack some items myself?
You are welcome to pack items yourself. For guidance on how to securely pack your belongings, visit our YouTube channel for a series of How-To videos designed to protect your items during transportation. However, please note that our insurance coverage does not extend to items not packed by our team. Consequently, any damage to self-packed belongings during the move will not be covered by us. Alternatively, you may choose to transport these items independently for added peace of mind.
Do you disassemble furniture during packing?
Yes. We disassemble standard furniture such as bed frames, tables, and shelving so that movers can load them safely and efficiently. We do not disassemble antiques or specialty pieces.
Do you offer unpacking services?
Yes. We can help unpack boxes, organize items, and remove materials after the move. Unpacking services are optional and can be added to your moving package.
How do I prepare for the move myself?
To ensure a smooth move, start by packing early to minimize stress and ensure the safety of your belongings. Utilize high-quality packing materials and label each box with its contents and intended room. Organize your packing by room and declutter to lighten your load. Pack valuables and essential documents separately and keep them with you. Finally, clear any obstacles in your home to provide easy access for movers, enhancing the efficiency of your moving day.
Overnight Packing and Move Preparation In Edmonton
We can schedule packing for late evening and night hours, so you can use the full day for work, errands, or family without living in a half-packed home. Our team takes care of protecting furniture, filling boxes, and marking each one with clear room and content labels. When the truck arrives, your home is already set for loading, which helps the move run on time and with fewer delays.

The Best Movers Aren't Born. They're Trained.

Here's What That Means For You:
- Packers trained in protecting fragile and high-value items
- Proper use of wrapping, cushioning, and box-loading methods
- Clear labeling systems for easy unpacking and room placement
- Efficient workflow that prepares movers for faster loading
