One of the worst moving experiences I have ever gone through. They were late because of an employee, so they brought on another worker to cover for the guy who was late, the owner said he would have 4 guys working that day and one would be on his tab when at the end we were charged for the extra guy. It took them 4 hours to load our furniture and boxes from the house. Scratches on my kitchen tables, desk and now other side tables which had been restored.... they had to leave mid move to do a delivery and the whole time all he could talk about was money instead of focusing on getting the job done. After a 6 hour day we still had stuff in the garage that wasnt moved!!!! Very very unappy with this moving company... read more

I moved with mighty movers last October from Vancouver to north of Whistler, and my move was more complex than usual, and almost long range at three hours each way. I got in touch with Bill at Mighty Movers on relatively short notice for my Sunday move and he was able to accommodate me. His quote was the most competitive, and a good 3x cheaper than some of the long-distance companies I contacted. The movers showed up on time and were able to fit everything into their 5 ton truck, despite the fact I kept dragging more stuff out of my garage, even when it seemed like everything was finished. Despite the 12+ hour day, the movers were professional to the end. I highly recommend Mighty Movers to anyone looking for a move in the area. read more

Where to even begin with this awful excuse for a moving company. The fiasco started with the owner changing the time of our move three times on the day of the move itself. After a stern conversation he finally insisted he would be here immediately. Let's keep in mind here that he lives in the same building that we're moving from. So he finally shows up looking disheveled and inebriated, does a quick walk around. Because all of this that we had to deal with before they even started the move, we asked for our deposit back. (On top of this he blamed his employee for being late, when his employee, who was very polite, told us that they were waiting on this other guy for hours.) He didn't think that asking for our deposit back was reasonable and said they weren't going to do the move and proceeded to storm off. Finally we got our deposit back but only after this guy set the expiration on the e transfer to THE SAME DAY. After this whole debacle he came back and said, "we could still do the move." Obviously we declined their services. We would not recommend this company to anyone in the future, and after seeing some photos from other people's moves and the damage. I'm glad we didn't go through with it. read more

Take my advice, don't hire Mighty Movers. We used them and they were late, full of excuses, took their time and destroyed a beautiful piece of furniture that had been in my family for 60 years. When I complained, all communication stopped. Now they are ghosting me. read more

Moving is a stressful experience, and it is key to have the right mover to help the day go smoothly. The Mighty Movers is that mover. From my first email with Bill the owner, I felt that I was dealing with a company that had my best interest in mind. There are three things I look for in a mover: 1. Value - Bill's rates were better than any other mover we talked to. We have LOTS of books, and stairs in our new apartment. Bill made sure we had the right number of guys to get the job done as efficiently as possible. 2. Timeliness - The team arrived on time and were ready to work when they showed up. They packed our place in an efficient manner, and got us to our new apartment as scheduled. 3. Professionalism - Whether it was Bill or his team, I felt they cared about our move and our business. The movers were friendly and courteous, and Bill worked with me to set timelines, and followed up after the job to make sure we were satisfied. All in all, I would recommend Bill and his team for any move. read more

I had Bill and his crew move me from Vancouver to Victoria. He was great to work with, had the best price, always returned emails promptly and showed up on time for a hassle free move. At the end of the move, he was kind enough to give me a few blankets to transport a few items myself from my storage place which I greatly appreciated. I'd highly recommend Mighty Movers to my friends and family. read more

I used Mighty Movers in 2013 for a move from Main Street to Kitsilano. I'm back on Yelp now because I can't see my previous review and we were more than satisfied with the service we got. The three guys arrived on time (early in fact) and were polite and responsible and got straight to work. It has been a couple of years, so some of the details escape me, but I do remember that they didn't break anything, they didn't scratch any walls, and they didn't make a mess. They laid down runners throughout the apartment to keep the floors clean. We were so happy that we used them again 6 months later to move some additional items (they offered a discount because we were repeat customers). The price they quoted was reasonable (I notice some people who wrote reviews didn't feel they were informed about the fuel surcharge and travel time costs, but we got a couple quotes and these charges seem fairly standard). I have no hesitation about recommending Mighty Movers based on my experience a couple of years ago. read more

Do not use them they will leave you hanging. Dealt with a guy named Sean. I had an appointment for 1030 they didn't show up when I called they said they were running a half hour late. Half hour later he's like I'll give them another half hour finally he said 1230 which was two hours after our appointment. 1230 came and no one showed up and they will not answer their phone. They kept ignoring my phone call definitely were declining the call. These guys ask for $100 deposit now I can't even get a hold of them for them to give me my money back. These guys are thieves. We had to do all the work ourselves which is ridiculous also I was late returning the truck because we were waiting on these guys. Completely unprofessional especially the fact that they declined your calls when you're trying to reach out to them. Do not use their service. read more

The price they charged me was way over the quoted price. They took turns as one person moved things while the other stood down by the truck smoking cigarettes. It was not a good experience and I would avoid this company in the future. read more

Bill and his team were reasonably priced for the level of service and worked very hard in a short period of time

Could not have asked for better service. These guys are amazing, caring, pleasant and extremely professional. I very highly recommend this company. read more

Mighty Movers did an excellent job with my move. I have the heviest sofa in the world. They wrapped all my furniture up. No drops or scratches on anything. They were super friendly and professional. Best of all they were very quick and efficient with my time. I just booked them for my move this month and would highly recommend their services to anyone. read more

The WORSTE. Keep in mind I have moved exactly the same 2 bedroom apartment on my own with three friends OUT AND IN, in 3.5 hours. It took these guys just under 9 hours. Granted we have a move from Vancouver to Squamish, but regardless, take away 1 hour of travel there and back and it still took them 7 hours. 3 "professional" movers. Unbelievable. Not to mention the owner just complained the entire day and just kept saying how much we had and how full the truck was. At the end of 4 1/2 hours of loading I went out to take a look and the truck was loaded half way up, and all the way back. If it was packed properly it may have taken half the truck. I felt like I needed to jump in and help (and I did), as they were literally moving one item at a time and the clock was ticking away my $$. One of the three guys disappeared to empty the storage locker and came back two hours later (it was a normal sized apartment storage locker that contained 12 boxes and our winter tires). There was at least 15 minutes dead time in between each elevator load, and when the guy showed back up from the storage locker, he kept asking me what needed to go. What part of I'm moving didn't he quite grasp? I'm not sure. There was a lot of wandering around the apartment looking like he had no idea what to do and a lot of wanting to chit chat. On my dime. A quote of MAX $650 turned into $1000 and the moaning and rudeness was non stop - even after I found things broken and asked him how to file an insurance claim. He told me I would have to pay the deductible of $250 and that nobody has ever filed a claim with him before, like it was great service and he was shocked........how am I paying the deductible on HIS insurance when it's my things that are broken because they were not packed properly on the truck? I wasn't' going to write a review, but after 3 weeks, I am still finding broken furniture (we are also in the middle of a renovation, so wasn't able to check everything out as it arrived - but instead it was loaded into each room so that we could work around it and now as we are finally able to start putting the pieces where they belong, I just keep finding damaged belongings. My antique sewing machine has the pedal snapped off. The ironing board...broken legs. the Laundry airer, broken..... It doesn't stop. My BRAND NEW $1200 mattress completely soiled with oil and dir... my BBQ came off the truck and smashed on the ground, I went out to check that it still worked the following day, and both wheels are broken off...and no - It does not work and when I texted him to find out how to claim it, he gave me complete attitude and responded "how is it possible, the BBQ doesn't work. IT fell on me and I had to go to the clinic this morning". How is this my problem? I paid you $1000 to move and if you can't do it safely and professionally - well, it's a massive disappointment. I really wasn't in a position to be paying almost double what I was quoted. These guys don't even have their own trucks. They rent from U-haul. On top of that they didn't (clearly) pad anything. Bottom line. Don't use these guys. read more

I'm updating this review since I originally wrote it on March 5th 2014. See below for the original. The update: After the move, the owner, Bill, asked for my feedback on the move, so I told him everything, the pros and cons. He reviewed his emails to me, and promptly admitted that he has forgotten to mention the two costs I discussed below (fuel charge and travel charge). Today, I got a nice cheque in the mail from him, refunding both charges, and a hand written note of apology. Could you ask anymore from a mover? Seriously, I am impressed, and will call them when I move next, and recommend them to whoever I know. Anyone makes mistakes, but it is how they react to their own mistakes that makes them who they really are, and this business has shown that they are great people. Original post (with 3 stars): Pros - Great workers, strong and knowledgeable. Got the move done in good time, with no damages or any major hiccups. Hardworking and capable workers. Cons - Two hidden fees not mentioned ever in the quotes: 10% surcharge on the entire bill for fuel, even if the moving distance was 2kms! This was later reduced to 5%, but still not at all reasonable given that this was not mentioned by the quotes provided by the owner, William Perisa. His quote also claimed there would be a small traveling time from their office to my old place. This distance was under 12 kms, but charged a full hour for the travel! Overall, the company was a bit shady for its charges, but had the best employees otherwise. read more

Definitely recommend this crew. The guys arrived on time, work fast, carefully and neatly and my move was done with ease. I looked at other companies and paid less! Couldn't have been smoother, thanks mighty movers, you made moving suck less! - James Butler read more

I have used The Mighty Movers for a move from Vancouver(north shore) to the interior (Kelowna) and was very impressed and happy with both the initial communications with Bill as well as his staff who were extremely helpful, respectful and very flexible ensuring that they met my needs. they were also very reasonable compared to many other moving companies I used in the past and had quotes from on this particular move. I have recommended them to a friend who is moving this month as well and I will be using them again for my upcoming move to downtown Vancouver. Bill's client care and his staff will certainly make him successful in this business. Thank you for your help Nevine A. read more

I've worked with these guys both professionally to help move clients and in a personal move of mine. They continue to go above and beyond and exceed my expectations everytime. The owner Bill is very friendly and helpful. I would recommend these guys to anyone who is looking for exceptional movers. read more

Might Movers did a good job, efficient. No drops, well packed...moved a very large cadenza as part of move. Would suggest them to anyone.

At the end of the day, it was a great job done by Mighty Movers to get me moved across Vancouver. There were challenges along the way, no doubt, but Bill and the rest of his team pulled together and made it all come together. No matter how well planned, no move is perfect. What matter is having a competent and professional company that can roll with the punches. When we hit some obstacles, the owner himself came out and made sure everything was taken care of personally. Beyond that, his teams were courteous, professional, and very quick as well. Mighty Movers weren't just a cost effective choice, they also provided peace of mind along the way. I would definitely recommend Mighty Movers in the future for anyone looking for a professional and reliable moving company in Vancouver. read more

When I first inquired about moving, I had a prompt response from the owner Bill. In the very first email, he had provided me a lot of useful information about the costing and even suggestions to help make the move easier. There was a small hiccup on the day of the move but Bill stepped up and helped organize to get the crews going. By the time the move started, Bill himself was helping with the moves to make sure the timing worked out. The movers were very fast, curtious and polite. I would highly recommend this company to others. Thanks again for the smooth transition on moving day! Mike read more

I moved with Mighty Movers last week and they were fantastic! Bill and his crew were polite, considerate and hard-working. My parents were helping me move and we were all impressed with their professionalism. When any challenge presented itself (and there are always wrinkles in moving) they were flexible and helped to problem-solve. They even went so far as to say that if my futon couldn't be taken apart (it wouldn't fit on the elevator) they would carry it up the 5 flights of stairs! I had a lot more stuff than they anticipated and they just kept on moving it. They were careful with my all belongings (including a piano) and careful of the new and old apartment walls. They made the unpleasant experience of moving much more positive. I highly recommend these movers who go above and beyond. Thanks, guys! read more

The gentlemen were polite and reasonably on time for our small quick move. Both were professional for the entire move consisting of awkward heavy items. No damage to the items being moved, the walls and hallways around them. Would hire them again. read more

I was moving at the end of April this year, and I had booked with North Van Movers. However, they were tied up and couldn't make it so, they sent a couple guys from Might Movers. I couldn't remember their names but they were really good - had a good attitude, humour, and were professional. They took the time to make sure our furniture was wrapped up to prevent any damages. They were able to figure out how to fit everything in a one ton truck and did everything in one trip too. I was very pleased. Thank you! read more

I had a terrible moving experience with this company and would absolutely not recommend them. They showed up about 45 minutes late and took a ridiculously long time to move furniture and boxes from my apartment to the truck. I honestly did most of the moving myself, because they were so slow and seemed only to be able to take down one box at a time. Like one of the other reviewers said, they took turns while one person moved things and the other smoked cigarettes by the truck. If i hadn't been moving things myself, it would have taken hours to move my small one bedroom apartment and no doubt cost much more. They were rude to me, unprofessional and disruptive (yelling loudly to one another in the halls of my apartment building), and I later discovered they had broken a number of dishes. It was a bit of a nightmare and I would not go to them again. Moving is already a stressful experience and there's no need to make it worse with bad movers. read more

I hired Mighty Movers for my move from Vancouver to Campbell River on Vancouver Island, not only was the owner incredibly accommodating and helpful, they were also very reasonably priced for an all day move. The movers that were sent were friendly, efficient and respectful. I couldn't have asked for a smoother move and would strongly recommend this company after having several other disasters with moving companies. read more

I needed to be moved by the end of september, and I called mightymovers. They were really nice, and the two movers helped me a lot. It was very quick, only took 2 hours. The manager seemed like a hardworking and nice guy. read more

Mighty Movers moved us in two stages. Because our renovations were delayed, we had to move our possessions into storage and then, weeks later, from storage into the new place. It was difficult for us to give Bill much advance notice. Fortunately for us, he was flexible and accommodating. In fact, both moves were on a Sunday! We really appreciated Bill's ability to work with our schedule. So if you want to do business with a competent local firm instead of one of the big moving conglomerates, at a more reasonable cost, Mighty Movers should be your mover. And Bill is very reliable. The bit of damage caused inadvertently by a new employee was repaired perfectly. read more

These guys are absolutely fantastic. Very efficient, organized, and great rate. We just moved this weekend-we got a estimate for 4 hours. They finished the job in 2hrs 45 min. Happy moving all! read more
