Alternate Moving Systems

At Alternate Moving Systems, we are proud to be one of the best full-service local moving companies in the Fraser Valley. As a member of Mayflower Canada, we offer a wide range of moving services, including local and long-distance moving, container service, and international relocations. Our team of professional movers is dedicated to providing superior service and customer care, making your move a smooth and stress-free experience.

Local Moving

Our local moving services are based on an hourly rate and depend on the size of the truck and the number of movers required to complete your move safely and efficiently. We also offer additional services such as packing, crating, and storage for an additional charge. To give you an accurate quote for your local move, we will need to know the number of rooms in your home, whether you are moving to or from an apartment or condo, if you have items in storage, and if you are planning to move appliances or a piano. We recommend booking your move as far in advance as possible to ensure the best service.

Long Distance Moving

Our long distance moving services are based on the weight of your shipment and the distance it will be traveling. Proper packing and preparation are key to the success of your long distance move. We offer professional packing materials and trained packers to pack your belongings to ensure they arrive safely at your new home. If you require storage on your long distance shipment, we offer container service to ensure your shipment is not unloaded and reloaded, reducing the chance of damage.

Container Service

Our container service is the perfect solution for moves that require short-term storage. Your shipment will be loaded, stored, and delivered in your own container to avoid additional handling and reduce the chance of damage. This service is available for both local and long distance moves.

Canada to US Overseas Moving

Moving to the U.S. requires proper documentation and compliance with U.S. Customs requirements. Our team will provide you with the necessary forms and guide you through the process to ensure a successful move. We will also assist with additional services such as packing, crating, appliance servicing, vehicle transportation, and storage.
