Positive:Responsiveness
I called to get some advice about moving a large bed frame that didn't fit in the elevator and David took the time to truly understand my situation and offer different solutions. His generosity and kindness were very refreshing in this era. Great service.

Vancity moving was a fantastic choice! We moved from Burnaby to Pender Island, and are so very grateful for the professional and speedy service by this company. David was great at organizing everything and Jason and the team really got 'er done with excellent work ethic and communication skills. A big thank you to them! And don't forget to tip your movers, they work hard for you!

This review is long overdue. We moved from the Lower Mainland to the Island last year and couldn't have been happier with the service. This is not our first long distance move/experience with movers so can confidently say that this company is miles above what we have experienced before - price was fair, service was exceptional and David's ability to estimate space/weight is remarkable (it's like he has a computer in his head). It was also evident that David was a good employer and valued the work his team did and was obviously respected in return (something not often seen these days). I wouldn

Worry-free moving. We have used VanCity for two moves and have had no damage, no extra charges and an overall pleasant experience - how often can you say that about a move? We happily had a fixed quote both times. Stuff happens when you move, a fixed quote gave us peace of mind.

I've had these Dave and his team move my stuff three times now, including a rickety old piano once, and I'm almost sorry (ALMOST) that I won't be moving again for a while because they're just plain fun to have around. Dave lets you know up front what to expect, and everybody shows up on time and does their thing. They treat everything with the utmost of care, are thoughtful and efficient, and just all-around decent human beings. Estimates have always been within the quote, and everything has run smoothly. Absolutely would recommend them to anyone!

Dave and his moving company are pros! They are courteous, on time and always professional. I am a home stager, and I give all my business to Van City Moving. Their pack up services are meticulous, and they do a great job moving and taking care of your property and your possessions. I highly recommend them for personal and commercial moves. Excellent company!

Highly recommend Vancity Moving for your moving needs. Dave will ensure you have what you need for your move and the guys on my moving day were very efficient and took good care of the furniture. They ensured it was all in good order to safely transport and took care in moving into the new location as well. It makes moving so much smoother and stress-free with good movers.
