Find moving companies in Calgary

Calgary's housing stock is 55% single-detached homes, and the majority of those have finished basements. This drives more of the city's moving costs than most homeowners expect: a three-bedroom Calgary home with a finished basement regularly takes as long to move as a four or five-bedroom property elsewhere. Add a city that spans over 825 square kilometres and an energy sector that generates regular corporate relocations, and you have a moving market with its own distinct character. Post your project on HomeStars to connect with local Calgary movers, compare quotes, and hire the right crew.

    Moving service (short distance within 50km)-
    Worst experience ever. The team of three that came to our house was the farthest thing away from professional movers as possible. The lead guy- the driver did not know how to park his truck, nor did he know how to pack a house. It was like watching the 3- stooges or Jim Carrey & Jeff Daniels (they starred in an old comedy movie about 2 guys that find some money). 11 hours total for a 2 bedroom house. The three guys worked and walked very slow. As if to pad the $175/ hr rate. They did not have any type of cutting tool to cut tape and had to use heir teeth. Additionally, the company does not have a “Pre Payments” license in the province of Alberta. Meaning they are not allowed to ask for a deposit over $200 dollars and your deposit is not insured by the province.. Damage is limited to $50 per issue. Beware of this company.

What types of services are offered by local moving companies in Calgary?

Calgary's housing mix, large footprint, and position on major interprovincial routes shape the services local movers offer most frequently.

  • Local residential moving: Local moves within Calgary are billed by the hour with travel time between communities a real cost variable, given the city's size.
  • Basement and large-home moving: Calgary's suburban homes commonly have finished basements with rec rooms and storage; these moves take 1–2 hours longer than an equivalent home without a basement and typically require a three-mover crew.
  • Long-distance and provincial moving: For moves out of Alberta or across Canada, Calgary movers quote flat rates based on volume and distance.
  • Beltline and downtown condo moving: Calgary's Beltline has seen significant condo development, with moves involving elevator booking, parking logistics, and building rules similar to other major Canadian cities.
  • Office and commercial moving: Calgary movers with commercial experience handle office relocations across the downtown core and suburban business parks, typically scheduling moves outside business hours to minimize downtime.

Calgary movers on HomeStars cover local residential moves, long-haul routes, and commercial relocations. No matter your needs, you can post your project and get in touch with companies to discuss your home type, timeline, and what they can offer.

What makes hiring moving companies in Calgary unique?

Calgary's geography, housing stock, and seasonal demand patterns create conditions that set it apart from other Canadian cities:

  • Finished basements: the majority of Calgary's detached and semi-detached homes have finished basements, adding significant volume and making crew size and time estimates higher than in cities with more apartment stock
  • City scale: Calgary spans over 825 square kilometres; travel time between communities at opposite ends of the city is a billable variable on hourly local moves
  • Stampede week: early July brings a spike in downtown traffic and moving demand; if possible, avoid scheduling moves in the Beltline or downtown core during this week
  • Chinook weather: temperature swings of 20°C or more can occur in hours due to chinook winds; worth considering for sensitive items like electronics, antiques, or anything that shouldn't be exposed to sudden heat or cold

Find moving companies in Calgary on HomeStars

Calgary's moving market is competitive, with around 225 active companies operating across the city. That makes it worth taking the time to compare before booking. Post your project on HomeStars with your home type, move date, local or long-distance destination, and any details about basement contents or specialty items. Calgary moving companies will respond with quotes you can compare alongside their verified reviews and company profiles. You can also find moving companies near you and connect with cleaning companies or junk removal specialists.

Note: When joining HomeStars, pros undergo checks at registration, including ID documents and company details, allowing you to hire with confidence.

What are the average costs of moving companies in Calgary?

Local Calgary moves are billed by the hour, typically between $140 and $150 for two movers and a truck. Homes with finished basements add an estimated $200–$400 to the total project time. For a full breakdown, see our Calgary moving cost guide.

Some typical ranges to budget for:

  • Studio or bachelor apartment: $500–$800
  • 2-bedroom home: $1,000–$1,400
  • 3-4 bedroom home with basement: $1,400–$4,000+
  • Beltline or downtown condo: $500–$900
  • Calgary to Edmonton: $840–$3,680
  • Calgary to Vancouver: $2,500–$3,000
  • Packing service (add-on): $700–$1,100+ for 1-2 bedrooms

Summer rates run 20–30% higher than winter. October is typically the best-value month: mild weather, low demand, and better availability than any summer date. Get quotes directly from Calgary movers for accurate figures on your specific project.

What to ask a Calgary moving company before hiring

There are several questions you should ask a moving company before booking. The following questions can help you decide if they're the right company for you:

Are you licensed and insured?

Confirm the company carries liability insurance and cargo protection. For long-distance moves out of Alberta, ask about compliance with Canadian transportation regulations and experience managing interprovincial logistics.

How do you handle homes with finished basements?

Confirm the company accounts for the full volume of the home in their quote, not just the above-grade floors. Ask whether a three-mover crew is included and whether they bring appropriate equipment for heavy basement items.

What extra fees should I be aware of?

Ask whether travel time between pickup and drop-off addresses is included in the hourly rate or billed separately. For Beltline or downtown moves, also ask about parking permit costs and elevator wait time charges.

How do you handle damage claims?

Ask what the company's process is for damage claims before committing, and whether additional valuation coverage is available for high-value items.

Is your company set up to work with employer-sponsored relocation packages?

Calgary's energy sector generates a steady volume of corporate relocations where the employer covers moving costs through a third-party relocation management company. If your move is being funded by your employer, ask whether the moving company has experience billing through relocation management companies and what their process is for coordinating with them.

FAQ: Common questions about moving companies in Calgary

Do moving companies in Calgary handle office or commercial moves?

Yes. Office moving companies in Calgary are active across the downtown core and suburban business parks, handling corporate relocations including furniture systems, IT equipment, and moves scheduled outside business hours. When posting on HomeStars, specify that it is a commercial project so companies with that experience can respond.

How far in advance should I book movers in Calgary?

For summer moves, four to six weeks ahead is a good target. Outside of peak season in October, two weeks is usually sufficient. Booking earlier on HomeStars gives you more options and a better chance of securing your preferred date.

Can a moving company in Calgary store my belongings temporarily?

Yes. Several Calgary movers offer short-term storage as part of their service, which is useful when there is a gap between your move-out and move-in dates. When posting on HomeStars, note that storage is needed so companies that provide it can respond. You can also review storage costs on HomeStars to plan your budget.

Does Calgary's large number of moving companies affect pricing?

Yes, favourably: it creates competitive pricing pressure that keeps rates closer to their historical range than in cities with fewer operators. That said, the volume of companies also means quality varies significantly. Comparing verified reviews on HomeStars before booking helps you find companies that are both competitively priced and have a track record of reliable service.
