Many people have made the mistake of moving across Canada without the assistance of trained professionals. Most of them have ended up regretting that decision. If you’re about to relocate across the country, you know that packing up the contents of your apartment and moving it far away can be a very difficult thing to do. Even moving across town can be challenging. Instead, it pays to hire someone with the knowledge and expertise to handle your belongings, especially the fragile items. According to the Office of Consumer Affairs, much of the stress that comes with moving could be relieved by getting the right people to do the job.They recommend that long distance clients intending to move across Canada do their research and select one of the reputable moving companies in Canada, instead of attempting the task themselves.

If you’re moving across Canada, you will have to considerthe multiple complications that can be encountered. Items could get lost, destroyed or damaged and the farther you are travelling, the harder these items are to replace. Professional movers are experienced and will come equipped to deal with those problems. Your precious belongings will be properly secured and strategically positioned in the truck to prevent possible damage. They have the right packaging material to add an extra layer of protection to the items so they do not endure any wear and tear during the cross Canada trip. In other words, your goods are even more secure than their owners. Another valuable thing long distance movers is insurance coverage. They can cover the costs of your possessions up to a certain price, should they get lost, damaged or destroyed.

Professional long distance moving companies in Canada are committed to giving their customers the best service possible. In Canada, the cost for long distance moves is typically determined by the weight of the items you’ll need to transport, the distance you’re travelling, how quickly the items are to be moved and the time of the year in which the move occurs. While many of these factors can’t really be changed, do not worry. The prices between companies are competitive and the moving terms are usually made clear. Certain ones may even match a competitor companies rate and discuss the terms of your move to find the best possible solution. In fact, the moving service can be customized to help ease the financial burden that often comes with long distance moves.

It is best to make an inventory of the things that will likely be moved in order to get an early estimate from the moving company. This could help to determine what you should get rid of before the move or what supplies and items need to be added to the moving list. Check if the company abides by the Good Practice Guidelines For Canadian Movers. Find out if the company is insured and has a worker’s compensation certificate. The Toronto-based company Rent-a-Son offers services for moves between provinces and even across the country. Clients can visit the Rent-a-Son Long Distance page to book a free estimate.They come with their own line of vans and include professional storage facilities, so you can be sure that your personal property can be taken care of. Once you get your move organized with a reputable company, the only task you’ll need to worry about is how to enjoy the scenery across Canada while the movers do the rest.

Moving is tiring and somehow annoying because you have to packed then unpack your things, but it is also exciting most of the time especially when you are going to move to your dream house.

Anyway last Friday it was our busy day because we have to pack and closed the boxes that we are going to carry to our new apartment. The moving company came to our apartment early in the morning of Saturday and the moving journey went well as our things are all ready.

When we arrived to our old apartment, all we had is one big box and two big bags, look what we accumulated in three years (see picture above). We had 14 boxes and 3 big bags, oven and furnitures.

In few weeks we are going to move into  a new apartment, my husband transferred to another school and  we have to move closed to his work place. It was a week ago since we started collecting big boxes from Lotte Super, we already have a few and last night we planned to get more so while my husband is shopping for freeze chicken breast I am busy undoing the box, there’s only one big box left and it turns out too they are out of chicken.

So we decided to go to Emart Everyday to find if they have the chicken we want, on the way I found a large box. When I look inside it is empty, the box is not a normal box it is a type of box which is normally use in shipping fragile items.  I took it but it was too large to carry and it might be shameful if I am carrying a large box to Emart Everyday so we decided that I should go home with the box and my husband will go alone to Emart Everyday.

On the way near the Dunkin Donuts I saw a file of boxes it was probably from Hang Ten or Watsons, their new stock probably arrived. As much as I want to stop I didn’t do it anymore because it is already hard for me to carry the large box and other people might thought I am a garbage picker.

Collecting used big or large boxes from the supermarket is more economical than buying moving boxes, our new apartment is not going to be that far anyway, it is around 4-5 kilometers from where are living but of course we are still going to hire a truck for moving.
