Long-distance moves · About 620 km

Moving between Kamloops and Calgary

About 620 km along the Trans-Canada Highway, through the Rockies and into Alberta. Quoted per job, not by the hour.

What makes this move different

It crosses the mountains

The Trans-Canada climbs through Rogers Pass and Kicking Horse Pass on the way to Calgary. Weather up there can change a schedule, especially from fall into spring, so build a little room into your plans rather than booking the move for the same day your keys change hands.

Alberta is an hour ahead

Calgary runs on Mountain Time, one hour ahead of Kamloops. Agree the delivery time in Calgary time, so nobody is standing at the new place an hour early or an hour late.

It is a full day of work

Loading, around 620 km of mountain driving and unloading make this a full-day job at the least, and more for a larger home. Book further ahead than you would for a move across town.
