How works the moving cost calculator in Canada
Using a moving cost calculator in Canada will help you understand that your moving quote will depend on many factors when it comes to a certain number. First of all, it is distance from point A to point B. You have to keep in mind that if our truck moves along HWY 1 only, you will have one quote but very often moves are done in northern parts of any Canadian province. So in this case there will be additional route off charge that will include additional mileage and, of course, additional fuel surcharge. Secondly. Fuel surcharge will be calculated all the way from the pick up address to your destination point . Additional amount for the fuel charge will be added if the truck heads off the route. That will be explained to you when discussing the charges. Thirdly. It is your shipment volume itself. The quotes differ significantly for the customer moving a 2 bedroom apartment or for the one moving a 4 bedroom house.

Additional factors included in moving costs in Canada
- Long walking distance charge. Applies when the walking distance is more than 40 feet.
Stairs charge when moving to/out of the building with no elevator. The customer should give our moving consultant all the details about the access to the pick up/drop off locations. If this information is not disclosed and the moving crew spends way more time loading or unloading, an additional charge will be added to the existing quote automatically. - Heavy items. All long distance/province to province moving companies have a scale for lifting certain items . It may be a piano, treadmill, safe or any other nonstandard item being moved.
- Packing service. If a customer is not ready with their packing on the loading day the crew may help them with that packing service and additional labor hours and packing materials (boxes, packing tape, bed bags, shrink wrap etc) will be implied to the quote.
Additional positive moments when working with Real Estate Movers on your cross Canada move
As an Alberta based long distance moving company our customers pay only 5% GST. No PST or HST.
For those customers who do not get possession of the new house on the day when the truck arrives at the destination address here at Real Estate Movers we can provide a short time- storage up until the customer gets their keys to the house. (Conditions apply.)
Moving business is a seasonal business so if you`re moving during the winter time you will get a discount.

With that knowledge and moving skills we guarantee that your moving needs will be covered with care and on a timely manner.
Fill in and submit our moving request form and our representative will contact you within 24 hours!
It all started with great communication (both phone and email) and customer service from start - he updated or checked in with me every couple of hours on how the move was going, where his driver and our stuff was, even prior to our move when the crew got stuck in the ferry line-up from a job on Vancouver Island before us. The crew themselves were nice, cheerful, and efficient, despite the snow we had in both cities and having to stop by our storage unit in the middle of our move.
I highly recommend Real Estate Movers to anyone considering a long distance move from BC to AB (and I know there are many out there!) or local moves within Calgary and will definitely use them for future moves.
Victor was always a pleasure to deal with, he responds in a very timely manner with any questions we had during the process.
His crew was prompt, friendly, hard working and efficient.
We are so pleased we chose Real Estate Movers and would use them again for any future moves.
Thank you

I recently hired Real Estate Movers for my big move, and I can honestly say they exceeded all of my expectations. From the moment I called for a quote, their customer service was exceptional—friendly, professional, and so knowledgeable. They took the time to answer all my questions and walked me through the whole process.
On moving day, the crew arrived right on time, and I was blown away by how efficient and careful they were with my belongings. They treated every single item with the utmost care—nothing was scratched or damaged, and they even took extra precautions to wrap up fragile items. It felt like they were moving their own stuff, not just mine!
They worked seamlessly as a team, and their speed and organization were truly impressive. They made sure to get everything into my new home quickly, and even helped with some furniture arrangement to make sure everything looked perfect in my new place.
Not only were they professional, but they were also so personable and friendly. Moving can be a stressful experience, but their positive attitude and great sense of humor really helped lighten the mood.
I can’t recommend Real Estate Movers enough! If you're looking for a reliable, efficient, and all-around great moving company, look no further. They turned a potentially stressful day into a smooth, hassle-free experience. Worth every penny!
He is amazingly professional and very good in what he does.
I would definitely recommend Victor (real estate movers) for all your moving needs.

1) Communication prior to the move was excellent. Victor visited the house about a week before the move to view the contents - thus he was able to provide a good estimate and know how many guys to put on the job.
2) The actual move was top notch. 3 men carefully wrapped each piece of furniture and moved it into the truck with no scapes or dings in the walls or goods! It was a hot day and they worked methodically and efficiently.
3) At the destination the movers carefully delivered the boxes and furniture to the rooms clearly labeled on the items again without any damage to walls or floors.
The 3 movers were all delightful people; excellent communicators and friendly and polite.
Great company from start to finish.
They packed up my 5 bedroom house, stored our belongings for 6 weeks and then I got the same team to unload!!! No damage to any of the furniture which included antiques and no damage to either house!
Victor was the only company that had the option of allowing our contents to stay in the 48' trailer to avoid a double move. His prices are very reasonable.
I highly recommend Real Estate movers.
I got a few quotes from accredited full service movers, prices were very high and they try to charge you for the weight of your items so you could end up with an actual bill that is much higher than the quote.
Victor provided an invoice that matched the quote exactly. It was not by weight.
Victor and his team very carefully protected all our furniture and items to prevent any damage.
Additionally it was the same crew that delivered our belongings in Quebec as did the packing. So there was no “sub contracting” at the destination which is fantastic.
Also note that many full service movers are not accredited with the BBB (better business bureau) and Canadian Association of movers). Real Estate movers are accredited with both.
Another excellent resource for home services is “Homestars”. Extremely reliable rating service.
Also, the packers reused boxes and a lot of labelling wasn’t very good with items not packed well. The move in was slow because the truck wasn’t loaded logically in order of room.
That being said. The driver and unloader worked without breaks to get things in and assembled and were happy to get things done for us with no hassle.
They offered to pickup the left behind items and deliver them to us at no charge. Stand up guys, thank you.
Not only did they deliver, they packed everything with care. All our belongings arrived intact, undamaged, and on time. Most importantly, the cost was AS INITIALLY QUOTED. Victor was very responsive throughout the move. He inspected our belongings in person to make the estimate. His team packed and handled our belongings with great care and efficiency. More fragile items were cushioned with blankets.
We had a time limit on our condo elevator booking, and his team finished loading the truck with lots of time to spare. The unloading team was just as proficient.
We will be recommending all our friends use Real Estate Movers from now on. Thank you Victor!
He was on time for pickup and drop off. Nothing broken or scratched. Highly recommended. 5 stars.
