Get Free EstimateWe had an amazing experience with Great Canadian Movers. They were timely, communication was great and our driver really cared about delivering all our belongings well. Highly recommend!
I would like to give a very positive review of Codie, who moved goods from cottage country north of Toronto to my residence in Winnipeg. He was friendly, helpful, did the job of moving things in with care for the goods and the house, for example, avoidance of the oak banister going into the basement. He put goods down in a logical, spaced way. He had been able to remove the screws holding a heavy pine table top and legs together, and did a good job of allowing me to take photos of the parts, and then the assembly together. He wisely recommended not re-screwing the parts for the time being. He helped a great deal in checking off items on a list. What it takes to be a professional is competence, doing the job properly and well, giving that primary consideration, and displaying personal suitability (honesty, integrity, decency). He meets all criteria. Should it come time for a move from my current home, I would give Great Canadian Van Lines top consideration, and likewise, Codie were he available.
I don’t even know where to begin with this review, I called Great Canadian Van Lines in a panic because another company just flaked on me, from the moment I called them the care that the team showed was astounding, they were patient and understanding despite how stressed I must have sounded, I certainly felt it. I was in good hands from the get go, and they worked with me to make sure my stuff was taken care of. So I want to thank Kathy and the dispatch team, first and foremost.
As for the actual move, Ron was amazing, I can’t thank him enough, my stuff arrived perfectly, a day early in fact. Kept in contact with me to make sure that things would run smoothly, and my stuff was placed in my apartment, they even helped me set up my television when they really didn’t have to.
If I could give you guys more stars I would, and I don’t generally write reviews, but you guys were simply amazing and if I have to move across the country again, you will be my first and only call. Thank you once again, you guys were absolutely amazing.
After living in the same big home in SW Ontario for 40 years, I made the decision to move closer to family on Vancouver island. It was a daunting thought.
I called a few companies looking for quotes and information but I knew right away after speaking with the staff at Great Canadian Van Lines that they were right for me. I couldn’t have made a better choice!
My phone calls were always answered promptly and the office staff were always helpful with packing and moving tips, sending info videos and reassuring me that things would be handled professionally and carefully.
Harry and his team arrived at my home in Ontario, packed and loaded their truck with my lifetime of treasures and, a few days later, they were unloading those same treasures, just as they had left Ontario, into my new home in BC!
Thank You, Harry, for making this whole move seamless and stress free for me!
I really appreciated your cheerful attitude and your hard work.
Harry was meticulous with wrapping and protecting our furniture for the long haul.
Move from Toronto To Campbell River BC
Best movers ever. Delivery was on schedule and not a thing was missing or broken. Wade was very pleasant and easy to get along with. It was obvious this wasn’t the first time he had moved anyone. Wade and his first and second assistant were accommodating and hard workers. Everything was placed where it should be and assembly of beds went without a hitch. All of our belongings were handled with care. I recommend this moving company hands down.
I had an awesome driver Steve G. who advised and directed me in making my move out west as smooth as possible. Steve’s crew were great to work with. Thanks Steve!
I was so overwhelmed and confused with which company to choose for my cross Canada move. However, Great Canadian Van Lines had great reviews on every platform I use/checked so I emailed them for a quote. From the moment I first connected with them to the moment I had my furniture delivered I received the best experience I could have asked for. Kathy was my first point of contact and just from our conversations I felt that their company was honest and was better than the other companies I had received quotes from. Then after that my move was completed by Amar and Harsh Sidhu. They picked up my furniture, transported it and delivered it to my new apartment. They were nothing short of AMAZING. they communicated clearly with me on excepted delivery times and were accurate down to the hour which was essential since I had to book an elevator at my delivery location. They were professional, calm and knew exactly what they were doing and didn’t damage any furniture or walls during the whole process. If I were to do a cross Canada move again, I wouldn’t even hesitate to use this company again. They made the most stressful part of my move, the easiest.
Wow! Hands down the best moving experience of my life! I had high expectations going in, but they not only met those expectations, they exceeded them by far! The communication, professionalism and execution was top notch from the very beginning of the process until the very end. The crew was unbelievably impressive with their skills, efficacy and their great attitudes throughout the process. I highly recommend this company!!
This Moving Company did a fantastic job!! It was a slightly complicated move in that one home from Winnipeg was distributed to two homes in Edmonton and one home in West Vancouver. All items were packed expertly including dozens of valuable paintings and fragile art work. All the items arrived at the proper place with no breakage or missing items. The Moving people Jas and Yad were fantastic expert movers who were , courteous, efficient, fast and precise. The office staff were equally accommodating and responsive to our needs. I cannot say enough good things about this moving experience. Thank-you
Our experience with this moving company was outstanding in every way, shape and form. They were always easy and available to communicate with, gave precise and accurate information regarding costs, time frames etc. Our movers /packers did an exceptional job with very delicate, very large and complicated items Thank you Jas and Tad !! I would highly recommend this outstanding moving company to anyone looking for an extraordinarily professional, trustworthy and above average moving company.
Ron and his crew were friendly and Respectful. We moved across the country and they were Fast and efficient Would recommend them to anyone.
My move from Wolfville to Aurora was efficient and the 3 movers were professional and efficient
No stress ..
thank you for a good move
Could not have asked for my move across the provinces to go any better. I dealt with 5 star people!! …from the initial consultation with Candace to the actual moving of boxes with Steve. Candace was exceptionally supportive/informative/caring and she is one of the main reasons I chose GCVL. You’re smart to have her on the front lines! In regards to Steve, both the day of the move plus the arrival of my belongings, he lead his crew smoothly with punctuality, quiet efficiency, and caring support of my furniture & me too ….all which took so much stress off me. I can’t tell you how much I appreciated having Steve on both ends of my actual move. ALL my belongings arrived safely! Highly recommend.
We used this company for our move from NL to ON. They were great. Very professional. Handled everything with care. Everyone was easy to deal with from the drivers to the office staff. Would highly recommend them and would definitely use them again in the futur
Shaw and John were excellent. The move went quickly and without ay problems. Would use these guys again. Thanks for the great experience.
Our mover(s) Dave (Okanagan) made our move easy! Friendly, professional. Would highly recommend to request Dave and his team.
As hassle free goes this was effortless, things ware well explained , always on schedule, the ones doing the lifting and dropping both groups ware educated with a positive atitude , they care to pack things properly while also doing there best to keep things intact, not a thing missing or open , for a difficult person like me isn’t easy to give a 5 stars review on a moving company but they deserve it , keep the good work , if I move again in the future I’ll surely contact you guys .. may your company grow and stays the same ..
one more Happy customer .. thanks
I had a great experience with Great Canadian Van Lines that constantly kept me up to date with my inventory and moving long distance from Alberta to New Brunswick my stuff was secure and the team did an amazing job of moving it in. (I did pay slightly more then what was quoted but I was aware that once weighed / placed on the truck it might add to the price – however my bill did not double or triple as some people had warned me) this company is fair and honest!!
I was very fortunate to be assigned Amar and his son to facilitate my move from Alberta to Quebec. Amar was great at communicating, organizing the truck, being calm and efficient.
Everything was done at a steady pace. He loaded my belongings on the 31st and arrived in Montréal the 12th. He even assessed the route and location ahead of time to insure his semi could fit. Due to the area we had to get shuttle vehicle to be able to park and unload – but again, Amar was so organized we were prepared.
You can tell Amar has many years of experience! He thinks ahead, and really puts a lot of thought into the process to insure it goes smoothly. I have moved with other movers and nothing compares to Amar – I would highly recommend!
The great Canadian van lines team were also helpful and quick to reply to any questions or concerns.
From start to finish the experience was 5 star. Great customer service; pick up and delivery of our load as planned and on time. This was our second long distance move with Great Canadian and both times we were very satisfied. Highly recommended.
Moving can be extremely stressful, overwhelming and overall difficult to navigate on your own – which is why I am honestly so glad I went with GCVL for my cross-country move from Ottawa – Kelowna. The GCVL team truly takes away the moving stress in a way that is rooted in professionalism, efficiency and customer-focused.
After getting recommended to go with GCVL by a friend, I am eager to recommend them again for any friends/family thinking of using a relocation service!
I had the joy of working with Sara E to create an accurate quote and making a last-minute reservation that met my timeline, as well as Ron (and on-ground movers) who is very efficient, responsive and kind. He ensured I understood how things were packed and any potential risks associated with the move (I did my own packing and I learned that I do not know how to pack 😆), details regarding my estimate and other relocation logistics. My items arrived in Kelowna well-cared for and everything was reassembled as it was – I was shocked by how quickly everything went!
Thank you for a stress free move .
Long-distance move from Vancouver, BC to Calgary, AB
Fantastic move
I’d give 6 stars if I could.
Eddie and his team were fast, friendly, professional, and handled all my items with care.
Not only did he show up early in both my locations for my move out and move in, but he finished early as well. He went above and beyond in every way.
I especially appreciated how he took the time to carefully wrap our more delicate pieces items. Not a single one of them was damaged.
Overall, this is the way moving should be done.
Thank you again, Eddie!
I recently moved from Vancouver to Montreal, and I couldn’t be happier with the service provided by Great Canadian Van Lines. From the initial quote to phone support and registering the move, everything was smooth and hassle-free. The team made the entire process easy and stress-free, which we are incredibly grateful for.
Daniel, in particular, was amazing. His professionalism, attention to detail, and dedication ensured that everything arrived safely and on time. He went above and beyond to make sure our belongings were handled with care. The best part? The items arrived right at the start of the delivery window, which was awesome!
The entire team was courteous, efficient, and kept us well-informed throughout. Their communication and reliability made a long-distance move feel seamless.
I would highly recommend Great Canadian Van Lines to anyone planning a move. Thank you again to Daniel and the whole team for making this transition such a positive experience!
Very happy with the move from Montreal to BC. Quick and efficient, no items missing, no scratches. Everything was cover protected. Harry was super nice and professional. Definitely recommend 👌 👍
Harry and his partner are hard workers, they showed up on time, and I appreciated how Harry spent the time to re-assure me about any concerns that I had about our cross country move. All of items arrived at our destination and were in good condition.
Thank you to the following staff from Great Canadian Van Lines Ltd.
Kathy, Harry, Sikender.
Thank you Kathy for guiding me through this moving process.
Quick to return my emails and telephone calls,
Great listening skills ,kind and compassionate.
Understanding of the stress you are under moving your senior mom from NS to Ont.
Harry and Sikender how lucky was I when you arrived at my mom’s Condo in NS to pack her up and move her goods back to Ont.
Hard working, they care about the clients !
They work non stop!
I felt like I’ve always known Kathy,Harry and Sikender.
Like friends as they are so easy going !
The owner of Great Canadian Van Lines Ltd Hopefully recognizes how valuable the 3 of your are,
The distinction or Excellence award or ……a nice bonus !
Without employees like you No company would ever survive as you are the Golden Key to a successful company like Great Canadian Van Lines Ltd.
With Gratitude,
N Gould.
Highly recommended to Anyone planning a move.
Great service on time and cant be more happy with Wade
the driver the one in charge is a quiet man but very efficient and polite.The other fellow Ronan so efficient in packing every boxes and carrying.There was also another fellow Mark from the warehouse was an expert in wrapping.
This was a great experience with Great Canadian Van lines.
Will recommend 100%
My husband and I were looking for a reliable and reasonably priced moving company to move from British Columbia to Ontario. We started our research back in March. After making multiple calls and reading through multiple reviews we found that many moving companies were dishonest in their pricing and lacked transparency. We were pretty worried that we wouldn’t find an honest moving company. When we came across Great Canadian Van Lines and spoke to Kathy Dorland we immediately knew we wanted to move forward with GCVL. Not only were the reviews positive, but also Kathy was just amazing from the start. We were worried about the lack of transparency and dishonesty, but Kathy answered all of our questions and really reassured us that it wouldn’t happen as the movers/contractors would face serious consequences. Kathy even offered for us to be there before and after weighing the truck so ease any worries we had about that. We were truly happy with the multiple conversations with Kathy that we booked with her for the end of June.
Fast forward to June, we contacted Kathy about meeting with the driver to weigh the truck. Kathy, again, was just amazing. She truly went above and beyond to ensure that the driver (Codie) was aware of the arrangement – she even gave us a number we could contact over the weekend if there were any issues to ensure that our Monday move was smooth.
On moving day, we were contacted by Codie and received updates as to when he would be arriving and where my husband should meet him. Moving everything into the truck went SO smoothly. There was so much care that Codie and the team put into wrapping our items and tagging them. Codie was thorough in creating a proper itemized list. Codie and his team were so genuine and personable! Moving everything into the truck took about an hour to an hour and a half.
It took about two weeks to receive our items. When we received the items, it was done in a systematic way. When items were brought in, I checked off the item number on the itemized list Codie created. When all the items were checked off, Codie checked the truck just to make sure that all of our belongs were out of the truck. He even ensured us that if things were left in the truck, he would bring it back to us. Adam (one of the movers) and Codie were just amazing – so personable and kind.
The price was also very reasonable. It was not the most expensive and it was not the cheapest. It was truly just reasonable. The total cost was less than 6 grand and we had nearly 3,000 lbs of things. It was worth every penny to have ease of mind during such a stressful time.
We truly couldn’t have asked for a better team and move – Kathy Dorland, Codie, Adam, Chris, and one other contractor were amazing. I highly recommend Great Canadian Van Lines.
Starting with iris it was an awesome moving experience, going from BC to Ontario as an 86 year old was very stressful but the moving company great Canadian Van lines / purely Canadian movers, I would highly recommend Ron ( driver ) to be the person to pack and deliver door to door, Ron and his crew were polite and respectful, with communication on the travels. They delivered what was promised, they had no need of a shuttle so Ron called his company and a refund was given the same day ( wow ) great customer service. I was very nervous about booking anyone to make that move for me with all the scams that were out there. But a 5 minute talk with Iris put me at ease, she even came to my house and packed my china for me on her own dime, can’t thank her enough. Everything was protected and delivered safely, thank you Iris, Ron and the rest of the team that put this together, I hope this helps future people with the service you provide, seriously give them a call, I promise you can’t go wrong. Thanks again. Loris/ Terry
Amar and his crew were great. We had a ton of stuff. Everything was packed well and made it safely across the country. Would definitely recommend!
What a team. From the sales staff to the pick up and delivery. The best customer service by far. This was a last minute booking arranged in only 2 days from Hinton to Espanola. They were on time with the pick up and with the delivery. My sister-in-law was just thrilled at how nice and helpful the delivery team was. Everything was in great condition. Highly recommend this company.
Thank you very much Sara, especially for dealing with all our emails on your vacation. We’ve been so impressed with you and all of GCVL. Moving – which we haven’t done in 24 years (and just 5 km down the road) can be really stressful, and we’re so happy we went with you. This was as stress-free a cross-country moving experience as I think is possible.
Professional, punctual, efficient and a pleasure to work with. We’re delighted to have the same crew both ways.
Looking for a friendly, responsible, caring, and thorough moving conpany? Great Canadian should be your choice. They were bang on the estimate. Cathy answered all of our questions promptly. Our moving team of Amar and Harsh were wonderful moving out of a Condo in BC and just as great moving in our new place. We highly recommend the company and Amar and Harsh. Charli and Paul
Very happy with the service we received. Wade was the driver of the truck and he treated our items as if they were his own. We moved from Alberta to Ontario and they were fast, professional and reliable. I would strongly recommend this company and Wade for your next move!
The driver Amar N and his Helper worked extremely Hard. They worked on another move in the morning and arrived at my home at 3:00 in the afternoon, They worked without stopping until 11:00 that night,,,,,, When I got up at 6:00 a.m. they were already packing ….. They were extremely hard working….. I was impressed with their work ethics……
I had a positive experience with GCVL during my move from BC to Ontario. GCVL handled the shipping of my household goods, while Hansen (contracted by GCVL) took care of transporting my car. Kathy Dorland, a consultant at GCVL, provided excellent support and prepared me for the move (since it was my first move within Canada). She explained the process, what to expect, and any additional costs. During the move, the distribution team, responsible for pick up and delivery, also provided great service. The teams were professional, flexible, and attentive to our needs, ensuring the safety of our belongings throughout the transition. We hardly had any items broken or lost. I want to say a big thank you to GCVL, Kathy, Amar and all the team members involved in the move.
Great Customer service , Arsh was awesome to work with, very organized
The movers were quite professional. They arrived on time for the pickup and drop off on the days they were scheduled. When at location, they finished the load-unload jobs in time. All my goods arrived, and in sound condition. They dis-assembled larger furniture items, wrapped, and re-assembled at the destination, in the rooms of our choice. Special thanks to Daniel the transporter, and the local crews!
We had an excellent experience using GCVLs for our cross-country move. They were professional, accurate, and clearly cared about ensuring everything was going to make it without damage. Our furniture was all well protected, and they were most helpful in getting everything where it needed to be upon arrival. This was our second move with this company and I would highly recommend them to anyone else seeking long distance moving services
I used Great Canadian Van Lines Ltd and was very satisfied with their services. They are professional and helpful. For sale department, they were flexible and quick-responded to provide service quote. For moving work, the team arrived on time and loaded my items including the upright piano promptly and carefully and then offloaded them without any hassles. It is highly recommended to use Great Ganadian Van Lines Ltd. Thanks Kathy and Daniel.
Amar and his son Harsh were the drivers/delivery people for my belongings. They picked up my items from my storage unit in Langley, BC and delivered them to my new home in Eastern Passage, NS. Amar went above and beyond in packing/labelling each item that was put into his truck on my behalf, as I was already in Nova Scotia. He was very approachable and communicated effectively about his timeline. Thank you for the wonderful service.
Moving from Surrey BC on July 3rd to Fredericton NB on July 17th . The moving process was quick , I got the quote quick at a reasonable price. all the furnitures were wrapped , boxes intact and delivered smoothly . I will use GCVL again and I will highly recommend to anyone who move across Canada. Thank you to the Driver Amar and buddy Harsh , you did Excellent service . Thanks also to Sara for excellent customer service.
Mary Jane 👍👍👍👏👏👏🚛🚛🚛
I had such an easy move thanks to Amar with Great Canadian Van Lines. Highly recommend these guys – so efficient and fast!
This cross-country move went so smoothly and quickly thanks to the hard work of Harry and his team. Courteous, efficient and very organized. My belongings arrived at the destination in great condition. It was not an easy move, with three flights of steep stairs but they were kind and careful the whole time. I would definitely use Great Canadian Van Lines again in future and would recommend them!
Last week we moved from Vancouver to Lethbridge Alberta. After researching and contacting alot of movers, we chose Great Canadian Van Lines. Kathy, the relocation consultant has a very polite, not pushy, helpful and reassuring person. We never met, but I know she make sure that the transaction was smooth. They may not be the cheapest rate, but the quality of work showed. Every phone call was great because Cathy answered the questions right away or she will find out immediately. She made herself available for us any time.
In regards to the moving crew, Amar Sidhu’s team was great. They are respectful, move quickly but very careful on taking out our belongings from storage to their truck. Also the way they wrapped our items to assure that there no damage was amazing. Days before they delivered, they called me to give the estimate arrival. They were on earlier time than expected, which was a bonus. While moving, they treated our new home as their own too.
For the Great Canadian Van Lines team, thanks so much for making our move stress free.
Everyone was service oriented, starting from the first phone call with Candace. The men who moved me were efficient while carefully wrapping furniture and accessories, so everything arrived safely and on time.
You know….. moving can be quite stressful! Packing everything up etc. GCVL Ltd are amazing! They are thorough, diligent, kind, polite and true to their word when it comes to being professional and organized. No damages, not scratches on my items.
I have two words for you… Hire them!!!!
You will not be disappointed.
We had an amazing experience! Eddie was wonderful to work with and made everything better. The team took great care of our furniture, both disassembly & wrapping them well to be transported safely. We received our belongings in the same condition they were picked up in. Eddie was very punctual, efficient, great at communicating and flexible. I would definitely recommend their services for long distance moves. This was the best experience we have had for a long distance move. We have had nightmare experiences with other companies and were so nervous to move again because of it. We would highly recommend this company, Eddie and team and will tell everyone we know! Thank you so much, you made a very stressful life event so much better and we are incredibly grateful.
Services provided from Amar, his son & Mike was excellent! The communication during the quotation & schuedling processes provided by the office staff were very organizsed and systematic as well. During the loading date, Amar explained everything very clear to make sure our stuff were well-placed and won’t be damaged. They were so considerate and willing to do the delivery even on Canada Day. I will definite recommend my friends to use this company with no doubt.
Used Great Canadian Van Lines for my recent move from Oshawa Ontario to British Columbia. I was very pleased with the entire experience, from making the arrangements with Emily in the office to Ron the Truck driver & his team. They were very professional, friendly & did a great job. They handled everything with care wrapping everything that was fragile & making sure that my Curio Cabinet & China Buffet were secured so the glass doors & shelves were not broken. They kept me updated by email so I knew exactly what day & time they would arrive at my destination. I very highly recommend them to anyone wishing to move.
Harry and Sikender are the best. Make sure to request them by name when you plan your move. These guys are professional, communicative and extremely efficient when it comes to packing and unloading all your items. I super appreciate the effort and care they put towards making sure my stuff moved halfway across Canada!
We moved 62 boxes of household stuff from Windsor, Ontario to Vancouver. We had heard some horror stories of moving companies and were very skeptical about anything a moving company told us. Great Canadian Van Lines restored my faith in the moving business. They were professional and communicated well with us. Save for a few small items that broke during the move, the experience was very smooth
David and the rest of his team at GCVL were superb. I couldn’t be more pleased with the entire experience. From start to finish, they demonstrated exceptional professionalism, efficiency, and care. The booking process was smooth and straightforward. The customer service team was responsive and accommodating, ensuring all my questions were answered promptly. They provided a clear and detailed estimate, and there were no hidden fees or surprises.
The movers worked quickly yet carefully, ensuring all my furniture and belongings were handled with utmost care. Even when the elevator broke down, they efficiently carried my items up to my apartment in a timely manner. I am thoroughly impressed with the service provided. They made what could have been a stressful day into a seamless and pleasant experience. I highly recommend GCVL to anyone in need of reliable and professional movers.
Daniel and his team were amazing getting all of our furniture across the country in perfect condition. Communication was excellent and all the people that Daniel hired along the way were also excellent. If you are looking for a reliable, honest, hard working team, this is them!! Highly recommend them!!!
I moved from Ottawa, Ontario to Beresford, New Brunswick. I had the pleasure of dealing with Daniel Lapierre (he’s from Rivière du Loup, Qc), long distance moving truck driver and mover who works for Great Canadian Van Lines Ltd. Daniel went above and beyond making sure that my belongings were well packed and loaded onto the truck. When he delivered my items to my new address in New Brunswick, he unloaded the entire truck himself because the local movers he’d hired to help him didn’t want to work during a heat wave.
Daniel arrived right on time with his big smile and his beautiful mood. In just a few seconds, he was able to put us completely at ease. He explained everything to us in detail, reinforced the protection of fragile items with covers and with care and no time, our belongings were in the truck ready to cross the country, from British Columbia to New Brunswick. At this point, we knew that the weeks looking for a trustable moving company, were totally worth it. And our stress to leave our lifetime belongings for someone to look after, totally gone. Free of worry, we were able to focus on what was next for us. At the delivery date, it was very hot and Daniel arrived with his big smile and beautiful mood. All our boxes were there, in perfect condition and nothing broken. Thank you so much
Awesome service, definitely use them again. Movers were super helpful and professional.
Dave and his crew (which includes his son) moved me recently from Vancouver Island to Lethbridge AB. They provided an exceptional level of service and were extremely friendly and courteous throughout – bottom line, they were awesome and I highly recommend them. Same goes for GCVL – great company that treats customers fairly
My recent move involved the need to transport some precious mementos of my dear mother, who died this spring in Hamilton at the age of 96. A local Calgary moving company told me they only did moves within Alberta, but recommended I contact Great Canadian Van Lines. From initial contact to ongoing helpful communications, Kyle and Candace provided knowledgeable guidance in a professional and really pleasant manner. It was also reassuring to know that driver Wade had decades of expert experience. Just as Wade and his assistant Rowan began to unload the furniture items and boxes at my house, the rain started pelting down. They were both good-natured about it and were a pleasure to chat with. They got wet, but Mom’s belongings arrived safe and dry! I want to thank each of these employees of Great Canadian Van Lines for outstanding service and for making the process of moving my mother’s items to Calgary very smooth, during this season of loss for me and my family. I recommend this company and would certainly use their services again in the future. Arthur S.
Had a great experience with our movers. Harry pulled off an amazing job. Him and his team are professional, kind, and all around all-stars. Ten stars!
From the moment I first called Great Canadian VLL for a quote, through to the move of my belongings, the service has been exemplary. My goods are going long haul into storage for a while and I have no doubt at all that both my goods and I will receive the same exceptional care until the moment they are in my new home. Communication is always prompt, friendly and no question is too small. They really care about the safe handling of goods and customers. I wish I could give more than five stars.
May 2024 I booked with Great Canadian Van Lines for a move from BC to Alberta. Their crew were on time, efficient and friendly. They originally quoted me 1 price, but to my surprise it was considerably cheaper (based on weight). Thanks Great Canadian Van Lines for the great experience!!!
I have used Great Canadian twice and both times have had excellent, professional service. Ron was great to work with to coordinate both pickup and drop off. Would absolutely use Great Canadian again.
The entire process was seamless! They took great care of our furniture, both disassembly & wrapping them well to be transported safely. We received our products in the same condition it was picked up. Eddie was very punctual, great at communicating, kept us posted on the arrival date & time. I would definitely recommend their services for long distance moves 🙂
Extremely glad I chose this company for our move from Ontario to Manitoba. The driver and staff were friendly, professional and very efficient. I would not hesitate to recommend or use again.
This moving company provided a seamless and stress-free experience. Kathy was incredibly helpful, providing all the necessary information before we started. They were punctual with the loading in PEI, and despite the long 5000km journey to Calgary, all my items arrived intact. Not a single item was damaged, including delicate glasses and kitchenware. They also managed to unload by the second day of the scheduled window, and the movers were both efficient and careful. I couldn’t be happier with their service and highly recommend them for anyone looking to move. Truly outstanding!
Excellent service from start to finish! Our driver Eddie was very accommodating, easy to communicate with and made sure the job got done right and quickly. We will definitely use Great Canadian Van Lines again for any of our moving needs.
Ive used them only once, but will ALWAYS book with them for future moves. The pickup & storage procedures were carried out smoothly with absolutely no problems. The sales consultant Sara is probably 1 of the most understanding and caring individuals to communicate your move with, making everything simple and easy to understand. Id recommend them to anyone carrying out a long distance move for a stress free and seamless process.
Nothing but good words to say about them. Looking forward to their services if I ever need to move somewhere far 🙂
Thank you all again for everything!
Have used them twice now, both times showed up on time and transported everything safely. Prices are not the cheapest you can find but definitely not the most expensive, very fair, highly recommend!
We moved from the Montreal area to Vancouver Island with GCVL two years ago and the process surpassed anything that we could have wished for. Time passed, we were due to return to Quebec so we elected once again to contact Sara at GCVL. The entire team was friendly and responsive to any inquiries we had; Sara, Emily, Candace, and Kyle were efficient and supportive. Our driver Steve
and his crew safely delivered our possessions cross country all the while exhibiting great communication. The delivery was timely with no delays. We cannot thank the team enough for the exceptional customer service, they are amazing, definitely a 10 out of 10!
A HUGE congratulations to the entire staff, they are champions.
Had one of the best moving experiences, everyone from customer service to dispatch and the movers were fantastic! Thank you for taking so much care and concern with my household furnishing!
Great experience I had with this company from start to finish! Emily kept me posted every step of the way with my move from Winnipeg to Vancouver Island. Delivery time was amazing and as promised. David and his crew exceeded my expectations. They were very careful with my furnitures and wouldn’t let me help in any way other than checking my inventory. Highly recommend!
We’re so thankful for the great experience it was having the super-conscientious trio of Dave, Tyler and Sean move our precious cargo from Winnipeg to Calgary. We’d recommend them to anyone who wants to feel that their possessions are in good hands. These guys do all they can to make sure everything arrives to you safely.
Glad I chose Great Canadian Van Lines Ltd. to move me from Victoria, BC to Barrie, Ontario. Staff very friendly and helpful. Ron and his crew were the best. They took great care in protecting my items. They made amazing time across Canada and delivered all my items as promised, actually sooner than I expected. Just be aware that you will probably have to pay for a shuttle if moving from or into a townhouse or apartment. Their Vans are 76 feet long and cannot get into most areas. Would highly recommend this. company.
GCVL made my move as smooth and stress-free as possible. Everything about the process was super professional, including Eddie, my mover who loaded and unloaded everything at both ends. I felt really good knowing that my move was in his hands, and my things arrived so quickly and in great condition. There was an issue with my bill but they were super quick and professional about fixing it.
Exceptional Service from Great Canadian Van Lines
I recently had the pleasure of working with Great Canadian Van Lines Ltd during my move from Montreal to Vancouver, and I cannot praise their service enough. Having moved multiple times across Canada and internationally, I’ve encountered various moving companies, but my experience with GCVL stands out as exceptional.
Kathy’s Outstanding Assistance: From the outset, Kathy demonstrated remarkable understanding of my concerns. Her professionalism and attentiveness made the process smoother than I could have hoped for.
Harry: Driver Extraordinaire: My luck continued when Harry, the driver, personally handled the pickup and delivery of my belongings. His dedication and expertise were evident throughout. I learned that he was named Driver of the Year, but honestly, he deserves recognition on a global scale. Not only did he transport my items safely, but he also shared valuable insights on furniture arrangement.
Words Fall Short: It’s challenging to express just how pleased I am with Harry and Kathy. Their commitment to excellence reflects well on GCVL as a whole.
Smart Management: Kudos to GCVL’s management for assembling such a stellar team. Kathy, Harry, and their assistants truly go above and beyond for their clients.
In summary, I highly recommend Great Canadian Van Lines Ltd to anyone seeking top-tier moving services. As a genuine customer, I can attest to their outstanding performance. 🚚
To the Great Canadian Van Lines Team:
We had a great experience with your team moving us to Bowen Island…fun memories and no stress because your expertise made it go so smoothly!
From Kathy providing a super accurate estimate based on pictures to Wade and Robin in the truck who knocked themselves out for our move. They all demonstrated great caring. They got to know my wife and knew our stuff so well they knew where to place it in our new home. Highly recommend this group and this company as nothing was lost, missing or broken and they worked with us to make our move as easy as possible.
