From estimater to closing the door of the truck when our move was done, Bekins supplied a smooth, hassle free and professional experience. Thank you Bekins.

Great experience. We moved from Vancouver to Toronto, everything was perfect. Everybody was very friendly and professional, customer care included. We had a really pleasant experience despite the normal stress moving-related. I would choose them again for sure!

We recently relocated to a new city and had an enormous 3 bedrooms house for 7 years. Over 147 boxes on top of bulky furniture. We are so satisfied with Bekins, 3 friendly and organized movers arrived on time and took less than 4 hours (including packing some of our bigger items: art, flat screens) The same experience was delivered at the receiving end. The team were easy to direct, and made time saving suggestions. We had an appraiser come first and to quote and plan the packing supplies. We actually used all but 3 boxes, none of our items were broken or missing. From the main office communications (Colleen) to the 4 movers we met, We highly recommend Bekins Movers, friendly, effective, affordable and they deliver quality. Very pleased, thank you to the team!

Nice place but little too much people in the front desk and low motion in the back

Bekins was able to facilitate a rather complicated move at the last minute. (My other moving company was shut down for two weeks due to CVD19 regulations). They were clean, courteous, professional. We accomplished a tremendous amount, more that I would have thought possible, and it was done incredibly well. Thanks to Osciel and his fine team. Also thanks to Benny for getting here so quickly, assessing our situation accurately and getting us to the best out one possible. Cheers.

Unbelievable. !!!

Hire them if you want a couple of scrawny teenagers to spend 10 hours moving your things, while leaving your ensuite bathroom toilet looking & smelling like an outhouse.

Bekins helped us move from Burnaby to Port Coquitlam 2 years ago and they were wonderful. We didn't use them for packing, solely for moving and they were quick, careful, helpful and hassle free. The guys were super friendly and we had no problems with them whatsoever. They even picked up some furniture from the Brick for us on the way to the house and helped us sort it all out. We will be using them again at the end of October and will be using their packing services this time around.

I trusted Bekins with a simple local move from a loft apartment to a townhouse. I would never use Bekins again. Here were the issues: 1) The actual costs were 60% over the estimate. 2) The crew was unprepared (no tools, didn't know the plan, showed up late without calling) and extremely slow (on phones, moving one piece at a time). 3) Multiple items (fire pit, dishes, cases) were broken and are still going through the insurance claims process. 4) They fought and argued over the actual costs and ended up only taking 10% off the final bill after threatening to take me to court.

Great moving company

Linda Carriere

Keith Z. and his crew were fast, efficient, friendly and careful with my mom's move from Toronto to Vancouver. Delivery is scheduled for a week from departure. Can't ask for faster service than that!

Julie Smith

Absolutely the worst experience and they cancelled our move date. Call backs were horrible, they never advised us once that we needed to secure the date by putting down a credit card. They told us it was all on us at the bottom of their estimate, that they never followed up once with us on and we had to call them to after three days to get. In that time, we lost the move date that.

Don’t use them - worst move ever - they destroyed my $2000 mattress & their customer service is a joke.

Luminita Evans

WOW. What can we say? Chad and his team were fantastic. Would recommend these folks anytime, friendly, fast and efficient .

Douglas Catterall

Can't say enough about the fantastic moving service we had from Antonio and his crew! Pleasant, quick, professional, meticulously careful. Many thanks for such a pain-free move.

Todd Carter

Rob, Rene, Scott are the best they go above and beyond to help you out. I highly recommend if moving give them a call

We used Bekins in March to move our stuff and store it for 10 months until our new home was ready. At the time we didn’t pay for the extra insurance (because who adds extra insurance when you pay for a “professional” moving company). Fast forward to Dec 18 when we moved to our new place. Right off the bat as the movers are positioning their truck in my driveway, the doors of the truck swing open and I could see my stuff had not been packed properly in the truck. As the movers take things out they see broken mirrors and other damaged items. They kept saying that the previous movers had done a horrible job loading the truck. When everything was unloaded we had 3 broken mirrors, several broken storage containers, and a broken vase. When I made my cloak with the claims department they came back and said I would be getting back $200 for items that were worth up to $2000 (I still have receipts for most of them). The claims person said because I didn’t purchase the insurance I could not get reimbursed for what the items were worth. I am so frustrated. They basically told me they won’t change their position and I’m SOL. Do not use this company because their customer service is horrible.

Used Bekins for the third time. First two moves were good but this time was a nightmare. They sent three guys, the one young guy one was in a rush and at one point he joked that it was his first day and maybe his last because of the damaged furniture. Furniture damaged (it fell off the ramp going up to the truck, into a rock garden) as well as a wall in my brand new house. I would NOT recommend them. Having a tough time getting the money for the damage they did.

Blake Wilson

Bekins moved me from Mayne Island to Victoria quickly, professionally, and for a very reasonable charge. They managed to load all my belongings in time for the next ferry to Vancouver Island--an impressive accomplishment in itself!

Shawn Decoteau

Nice new building. Great helpful staff Rene in dispatch is awesome. Thanks guys.

Jaden Fowlie

Great place to move with. Great service great friendly people like mark and doug in the warehouse. Didnt have to lift a thing cause of those two guys. Highly recommend you give this company your business!!!

Chris Bowman

Great ideal for the scale

Brittany Stoltz

Overall a really bad experience. I won’t be using them again.

Wendy Watson

We used Bekins Vancouver for move and storage during a renovation, and although the movers were good, the company is incredibly unprofessional. They changed our storage contract during the storage period, resulting in extra charges, and went so far as to charge our credit card without our approval. Do NOT recommend.

Bruce Henry

Awesome clean quite friendly Thank you

Dan Beervaugen

Great staff. The best place to call if you want a quality move.

malcolm threadgill

Our second move with Bekins, however this one was horrible. Lot of furniture wrecked, boxes drop and crushed from bad packing. The worst of it though was the final bill, came in $3000 higher then original estimate. We understand it’s a estimate but this is a huge difference especially being we sold numerous items before the final move. Very unhappy with this last move with Bekins.

Rose Okikan

The packers gave me one of the VERY worst days of my entire life! Moving is never a picnic, but when you have hostile people in your home handling every single thing that you own, and management is nowhere to be found, this company just shouldn't even be in business. The folks that actually haul the stuff into the truck and drive the truck were very professional, but the in/home packing crew were beyond a total nightmare.

yvette getty

I had Bekins Parksville move a very heavy dining room suite for me April 25. Joe and Todd did a superior job. They were very careful with the furniture, they were very very professional and they were very polite. Thank you so much Joe and Todd. Would recommend this company 100 %.

Jac Roodbol

Bekins moved us last week. From the initial telephone call, the walk through quote, to the pick up and delivery of our belongings to our new home, Bekins was excellent. They gave a reasonable quote, they were professional, did exactly what the said they'd do and they were professional and polite. Those lads were on the go and worked very hard indeed. I'd recommend Bekins and use them again. Thank you!

Moving is very stressful, but the guys at Bekins took care of everything , very grateful, special thanks to Danny and Mike
