Movers in Vancouver start from C$480 for a studio/1-bed local move. A 2-bedroom local move averages C$1380. Prices exclude provincial tax (GST/HST/PST varies).

Long-distance ranges are inferred from published route examples such as Toronto-Ottawa, Toronto-Montreal, Toronto-Vancouver, Ottawa-Hamilton, Montreal-Quebec City, and Toronto-Edmonton.

A typical studio/1-bed local move takes 2-3 hours. A 2-3 bedroom home takes 4-6 hours. Factors like stairs, parking distance, and the amount of furniture can add time. Most movers charge by the hour with a 2-hour minimum.

For studio/1-bed moves with minimal heavy furniture, a DIY move can save money. For 2+ bedrooms, heavy furniture, or stairs, professional movers are faster, safer, and come with insurance. Always get at least 3 quotes to compare.
