Did not respect fragile items. Placed everything in living room then left. Overcharged for one hour and only accept one type of credit card. All three movers did not wear a mask during the whole duration of the move. We were all in close proximity and I felt uncomfortable as one was coughing occasionally. They did not want to work outside of office hours which is understandable. However, we were told we would get five hours but the office closed so we were only able to get 4. And we were still charged for five hours. The receipt has the wrong info on it as well.

I have personally used Metro Vancouver Movers since 2008 and more than 30 of my friends and family have used Metro Vancouver Movers for their moves. I used them yesterday Sat January 16, 2022 to move and as usual the service was fantastic. The team lead by Farhad and his team did a great job of ensuring each of the items are securely packed and moved. They took care of each of item professionally and moved. Great service and fair price. I will strongly recommend Metro Vancouver Movers.

Had a fantastic experience with Metro Vancouver Moving company. The staff were very professional and really knew what they were doing. Very fast and efficient. The lead person Sam was fantastic and his team with Marcus and Vladimir were great. We felt very comfortable in how they handled our delicate items and had some nifty tricks in getting around difficult big items. The best part were the use of their moving boxes that they gave to us a few days prior to moving to safely pack and store many small items and appliances. Wow what a great service. USE THEM you will not regret it is all I can say

We had an excellent experience with Metro Vancouver Movers and would definitely recommend the company! Our movers, Asef & Fazul were very friendly, professional, COVID safe, and helped us get our move done very fast without damaging any of our goods. Thank you guys!
Metro Van Movers also was significantly more affordable than the other quotes we received. Will 100% use them again in the future. 10/10 service.

Great movers and the provided moving bins are a huge help at organizing before the move and cutting down on waste. Metro Vancouver Movers moved us from our 1br apartment into our new home in Vancouver and it was a great experience.
Dakota, Sam, Mohamad, and Mustfa hustled hard today and provided great service to complete the entire move in 2 hours instead of the 4-5 we booked. Getting those extra hours to start unpacking and cleaning was a big benefit.

Sam and team helped us move our piano. As other piano/instrument owners know - it is extremely important to find a mover that is professional and experienced. I was very happy with the way they did the move, it was quick and efficient, and clearly they knew what they were doing. In addition, I really liked that they are very communicative - they got back to me quickly with a quote, I got a call the day before they came to confirm, and they even called me when they were on route. I'd highly recommend these guys!

I had a great experience with Metro Movers. The move was fast, smooth, and affordable. They were very professional and careful with my belongings. They were always quick to respond when I had questions. The free box rental made everything a breeze. I'd highly recommend.
