Apartment Movers in Surrey, BC

Most apartment moves suit a small crew and a short job. We bring a professional two-mover team and a 16 ft truck, plan stairs and elevators ahead of time and give you the hourly rate in writing.

Small crews from $135/hr

2 movers and a 16 ft truck suit most studios and one-bedrooms.

Stairs and elevators planned

Walk-ups, long carries and shared elevators are sized into your quote.

Month-end ready

Book early for month-end, when most rentals change hands.

Add what you need

Packing, assembly and storage can join the same booking.

Apartment moving in Surrey, simplified

Apartments are usually quick to load, but the details decide the bill: how many flights of stairs, how far the carry is, whether there is an elevator and where the truck can stop. Tell us those details and we size the crew and the time to match, instead of sending more movers than you need.

Surrey Movers moves renters and owners in apartments, walk-ups and high-rises across Surrey, White Rock, Langley, Delta, Burnaby and Vancouver. Packing, unpacking, furniture assembly and storage can be added to the same booking.

Apartment moves we handle

Walk-up apartments

Stairs change the crew size and time. Tell us the number of flights at both addresses.

Elevator buildings

A booked elevator or loading slot keeps the job fast. Ask your landlord or building manager how it works.

High-rise rentals

Long carries, lobbies and shared elevators are planned before moving day.

Basement suites and lane-way homes

Narrow stairs and tight entrances are common. Mention them when you request a quote.

Moving out of a rental apartment

Rental moves often have a hard end date, so plan your move around your tenancy dates and book early, especially at month-end. Check your tenancy agreement and ask your landlord or building manager about elevator booking, move hours and any deposit.

Time on the clock is time you pay for. Pack and label boxes before the crew arrives, keep the path to the door clear and make sure the truck has a place to park close to the entrance.

  • Confirm your move-out and move-in dates in writing.
  • Ask about elevator or loading-zone booking at both buildings.
  • Take photos of the unit before you leave, for your deposit.
  • Return keys and fobs, and update your address with ICBC and your utilities after the move.

Stairs do not carry a separate fee, but they add handling time, and time is what local moves are billed on. Tell us the number of flights so your quote is accurate.

Do I need to book the elevator?

Many apartment buildings require it. Ask your landlord or building manager how far ahead to book and for how long.

Can you move me at month-end?

Often yes, but month-end fills up first. Book as early as you can, and call us if your date is within a week.

Can you move just a few items out of my apartment?

Yes, subject to the usual 3-hour minimum. Compare that with the cost of the move you need.
