A+ customer service with my first call, answering all my questions and putting my mind at ease. When moving day came they arrived 15 minutes early, cost came in BELOW estimate, nothing broken or lost. Great group of men, highly recommend them! Don’t let the flat rate moving companies scare you away from the hourly. The flat rate companies estimates were double what I actually paid with Rainforest Moving and Storage (hourly). Thank you!!!

James and his team helped us through a very large and stressful move, making the experience as positive and streamlined as possible. From James planning the logistics of the two stage move to Alan and his crew executing the actual moves, the daunting process was made so much easier for us. We so appreciated the professionalism, kindness and consideration demonstrated by each and every staff member we encountered. We could not have asked for better people to help us with our move. This is by far the best moving company we have worked with! Many, many thanks to James, Alan and all your staff!

I would happily hire Rainforest Moving and Storage again! These guys went above and beyond from the beginning of the process right through until the last box was brought in to our new home!!! Our move day was the first hot day of the summer and these guys just kept going and going. It was difficult to get them to stop and take a breather. You can’t go wrong here!!!

Very happy with our recent move with Rainforest Moving. James came out promptly after I contacted him to give us a very fair quote. I liked how he was clear in what we needed to do to get ready for the move, he even gave us a booklet with moving tips. On the move day they showed up a few minutes early, we had 2 trucks. The guys were all very polite and personable and professional. The move went very smoothly. Highly recommend!

The whole experience was excellent! Professional but friendly and personal at the same time. The booking was easy and the rate was good. The truck and guys showed up on time and moved everything carefully and in two hours. They kept my belongings safely on the truck overnight and showed up on time the next morning and moved me in to my new home within two hours. They were clean, respectful, and made the move enjoyable. There were no surprises and no hidden costs. I highly recommend them and would certainly use them in future.

The crew came earlier than expected so we started earlier. They were friendly and fast in their work. They completed everything in less than 5 hours. We commend them for remaining upbeat all through the 5 hours because that was a lot of hard work given we didn't have an elevator, it was a bit of a walk, plus the 2 flight of stairs to lug the books, bed, and exercise machine. The price was very reasonable and the service was excellent! Extend our thanks to the crew😀

I hired Rainforest Moving to help with my post recent move. We had two movers and a big truck which was perfect. They arrived on time and started moving things almost immediately which was great. As Covid protocols are in place, both movers had masks on. However, I understand moving it alot of hard work and so their masks weren't always completely covering their faces which was a little concerning at times, however they were quite respectful of keeping distance. They moved all the things from my condo efficiently which was great! I did find the overall final price to be a bit higher than I thought it would be. I also wasn't provided with a final receipt for the charges. Overall, the guys did a great job and kept all our belongings in tact!

We used Rainforest for moving our three bedroom condo. They showed up on time and the crew was really friendly and courteous. They wrapped our furniture in moving blankets so nothing was damaged and because our move is temporary, they have kept everything wrapped up in storage so it's ready to move again without all the work. We're very happy with their service and look forward to using them again for our next move.

We had Rainforest move us from Port Coquitlam to Sidney on Vancouver Island. They came and quickly packed the truck to overflowing since we had really underestimated the amount of stuff we had. All turned out fine though and the next morning all our belongings were delivered in good condition to our new house.
Great bunch of guys and quality movers.

- Vicki Kenyon - Oct 20, 2020
Excellent in every way.
I emailed for an estimate about 8 weeks before our move. James called me on a Sunday, came over to do a (COVID safe) estimate the next day which he provided in writing on the spot. It was by far the most reasonable one I received. James kept in contact with me and I was never in a position where I didn't know what was going on or what had to be done next.
The day of the move Connor, Sean and the sweetest 3rd guy who's name has escaped me showed up on time. They were professional, polite, efficient, friendly going above and beyond what I expected. We had a ridiculous amount of boxes but they got everything finished much sooner than I'd hoped.
Everything was held in storage for about 9 days then brought over by ferry to Vancouver Island. I was told ahead of time what ferry they would be on. The day of I got an early morning call saying they had managed to get an earlier ferry.
We were so pleased to see the same 3 guys! The move in went the same as the move out. They set up beds, etc while surrounded by my friends and family who all fell in love with them...they were so patient with their new fan club. The only 'problem' we had was convincing them to eat some lunch we brought in for all of us.
It doesn't get any better than this.

We first discovered Rainforest Moving and Storage in 2015 when we moved from our house to an apartment condo. Not only did they pack and move our belongings, but they also assisted with the unpacking. We were so impressed with the services, that they had provided, that we called them in January 2020 to undertake another move to our newly renovated carriage home. Both of our moves were a smooth and pleasant experience. The personalities of the movers were an extra treat!
- Patty Holmes - Jun 29, 2020

Rainforest moving was recommended to me by someone that had used them several times in the past. My experience right from the first conversation to completion of my move was very positive. I was moving just as the city was closing for the COVID “lockdown” and was obviously very concerned but they reassured me that unless they had an order to not do business they would complete my move. They respected the social distancing “rules” and completed my move with a friendly professional manner. They were a very good value for the cost. I passed on my recommendation to a friend who also just completed her move during the pandemic and she too was extremely pleased.

Very friendly professional movers I’m actually probably may need you in the summer again thank you very much have a great if you could contact me and see if I do need you
- Leslie Lubyk - Jan 09, 2020
Very friendly movers. They took the time to come by my place before the move so they could give an accurate quote and make sure I would have everything I needed. I had two movers who took excellent care of my things moving my 2 bedroom apartment across town. They also rented me very handy plastic totes which was so much easier (and greener) than fiddling with cardboard boxes.

We had a big move in Richmond in August 2019 and James came over to provide a realistic estimate. We had insisted on a clean one-trip move and, thus, provided with two trucks and 4 great guys: Shaun, Gavin, Mike, and Rory. We just had so much stuff and the guys were working hard and steady the entire day. James had given us a heads up on a potentially challenging furniture piece that would be problematic to move, and it was just that – it was heavy and dangerous to move (though the guys tried) but finally had to be dis-assembled. We recognized the re-assembly would not be quite the same, however, they did a fine job! We're glad we were given the heads up on it. The guys also understood the toxic neighborhood we were moving out from and respected our wish that they not speak to anyone. However, one of the neighbors came into our house and climbed upstairs uninvited while we were not around. The guys politely ushered her back out on our behalf recognizing the intrusion and making it clear that she was trespassing. Very much appreciated! Overall, a great crew and we would have no hesitation in recommending Rainforest Moving.
- Bec in Richmond - Nov 05, 2019
Moving day can be very stressful. I had a lot of stuff to organize, and a very narrow time window, with only a few hours of elevator time from the strata and cleaners booked to come in right after the move. The team from Rainforest Moving showed up right on time. They were all so nice, and very considerate. They were a very efficient team, and the move went great. No hidden costs, and they took great care with everything they moved. I was very happy with the service from Rainforest. I really hope I don’t have to move again soon, but if I did I’d use them, and I would definitely recommend them.
- Heather Gray - Nov 05, 2019
This is the second time I use Rainforest Moving. First time in 2011 and again this year. James is very professional and easy to deal with. Moving date was arranged quite easily. 3 movers were on time, all very professional and very efficient. They did a great job moving our piano each time. It was carefully wrapped and well protected. My dining room chairs and coffee table are all nicely covered and protected as well. The quote James provided was very accurate and they completed the move within the time quoted. Their price is very reasonable and hasn’t really changed that much over 8 years. Will definitely use their service again.
- Mable Chan - Oct 23, 2019
I highly recommend Rainforest Moving. James, the owner came out to my house and gave me an estimate of my move. And on moving day, 3 movers arrived, wrapped the glass that needed to be wrapped, they were very professional, hard workers, and extremely efficient!!! They completed my move before the estimated time and a little over $100 under cost that was quoted. I can’t say enough good things about this company, and without a doubt, I highly recommend them! One more bonus..they placed the furniture where I wanted it and boxes in the appropriate rooms which made unpacking so much easier. Thank you Rainforest!

I really appreciated the service and support I received from everyone at Rainforest.

My parents had used Rainforest in the past when they moved after 37 years and they did a fabulous job.
It’s no secret that moving is stressful.
From start to finish, James and his team were authentic, kind and absolutely professional. (A rarity in this industry, really)
We moved from a 3 storey narrow townhouse in Vancouver on a very busy street and small back alley with no room for a large moving truck. Add in 2 sets of “death stairs” (think steep and narrow) and it was pretty much set out to be the move from _ _ _ _.
I’m happy to say it was exactly the opposite.
The team we had came ready to work...HARD; and that they did. Not even taking one break until the job was done (though we offered!).
Not one item was damaged en route to our new home. We were thrilled with the service we received...there were ZERO hidden costs - what you were quoted is what you paid. Ours was even less!
We have no hesitation in recommending their services; they are truly a solid company
- Dawny B - Jan 08, 2019
Rainforest was amazing, fast, efficient, polite and funny ! They had our entire move ( family of 4 ) done in 3 hours flat. I totally recommend them.
- Harmony Chaplin - Jan 08, 2019
I have moved several times between 3 continents but the first time I had to choose a Vancouver company for a local move. From all candidates Rainforest was the most promising.
Then we did the move. Several external factors (elevators not working, access to loading/unloading areas restricted, etc.) made it challenging, but despite all that the guys from Rainforest did a fantastic job.
I would recommend James and his guys to anyone no matter how challenging the job might appear. Thanks James

I used the packing as well as the moving services. I found that the Packers and Movers were very professional, careful, and fast. They didn't waste any time, and did things in a very efficient manner. They thought things out first before moving certain pieces so there would not be any damage to the furniture or house. I received an estimate ( which I was very happy with, but was actually more than what I ended up paying, )which was a happy surprise. Everyone was a pleasure to deal with, and the price was right as well.
On Moving Day James came to check out how things were going, making sure I was happy and everything was going smoothly. I chose to have things packed in those Rubbermaid type frog bins, which cost a little extra but are much more efficient and easier to open and close as well as stack.
Thank you and I would definitely recommend Rainforest Moving!

Rainforest Moving assisted us with not only a move from a townhouse to an apartment, but also assisted with the removal of large old furniture which we no longer needed. For both jobs, the crew arrived on time and were friendly, professional, and efficient. Even though our townhouse contained two flights of stairs, it was not an obstacle for this team getting the job done within the estimated time and cost. Small details like keeping track of shelf pegs/screws /cabinet feet were a bit scattered, as I picked up a few things taped up together but left on the carpet. However, the crew was definitely careful with moving things with out damage to walls/floors or furniture. Everything was packed securely in the truck to ensure no movement and our piece of mind. I would definitely recommend and use Rainforest Moving again.
