Greaves Moving & Storage Ltd - Courtenay, British Columbia

Our move was truly exceptional. Both Michael and Christian took extreme care in handling all of our furniture and certainly went beyond what we expected. They were courteous, motivated and knowledgeable on every aspect from moving furniture to re-assembling where required. We would highly recommend this moving company to anyone who is looking for an affordable, and a quality company who truly cares about your needs.

Great team who took care of my move from Cumberland to Sidney. Friendly, patient (I wasn’t quite ready) and efficient. The weather was terrible when they finished loading the truck, but they then drove the 3 hours back to Victoria, which got them home after 9:30 pm and the following morning first filled my storage rental before taking my household goods to my new home. FANTASTIC and would highly recommend you turn to them when you need to move. They’re the best!

We hired Greaves Moving to move from Campbell River to Manitoba based on previous good reviews, however our experience in July 2023 was terrible. Our movers showed up 7.5 hours late and nobody seemed to know what was going on. We were told in writing to expect the movers at 0830-9 am and they showed at 420 pm. We learned later that Greaves had contracted a truck company from Chilliwack, so these movers had to come to Vancouver island to load us. This company had neglected to come over the night before and to make a ferry reservation for the next day which contributed to the delay. Because of the late arrival, as well as the company only sending two movers, our move extended into the next day . This resulted in us having to change, cancel and reschedule reservations for our own travel. We also had to move boxes ourselves in order to be out of our residence on time.
Our belongings did arrive on time in Manitoba and the move into our new home went smoothly, however our moving bill was $1800 higher than the estimator quoted in a written estimate . When we called Greaves moving to discuss compensation of our expenses due to the delay, we were told to contact the corporate company of North American Van Lines. Although Greaves Moving was sympathetic , they weren’t prepared to do anything other than redirect us. We unfortunately would not recommend this company for a long distance move.

I had a great experience with move out, storage & move in. Literally all they do is great. Here’s my experience from start to finish: Scheduling was simple & quick, they had two movers out around 4-5 days after I called. Everything was kept in storage for a month & came out with no issues nothing broken or scratched. The move in was also incredibly easy. I called & they scheduled me for maybe 3 days after I called, so real quick. Tyler helped with both move out & in, he’s a great guy! They have really kind, easy to chat with & fun people working as their movers. My dog is a rescue & is really sensitive to the energy people bring, he had zero problems cuddling up to the guys & recognizing they’re good people.
As for pricing, all the aforementioned services were so reasonably priced!! I truly expected a one bedroom move & storage might be way out of my price range so I’ve never asked for help but this was worth every penny for only around $2k.(obviously the weight & timing affect the pricing, my stuff was pretty light for furniture & timing stayed around the minimum.)

Greaves Moving and storage was awesome, they packed and moved my stuff with such care and attention to detail. Every thing arrived safely and was labeled and packed so well. It made the unpacking process so much easier. They kept in contact and made me feel comfortable. Greaves made my move from Courtenay to Victoria a walk in the park. I couldn’t have done it without them. I will be calling them again in the future for sure and would recommend Greaves to anyone!
