10/10

First let me start by saying that Mark Guzman was one of the most knowledgeable individuals we spoke with during the research phase of our move from Thunder Bay, ON to Burnaby, BC , yes we moved from one extreme to another. We were moving from our families estate that we had lived in for over 20 years as a family and then for 18 years with my family and it was time to downsize. We left a 7,500 square foot home in Thunder Bay and purchased a smaller yet still large 5,000 square foot home in Burnaby and needless to say there was an abundance of knick knacks and other items collected over those years to be packed and moved. We had 3 major movers come to our residence to quote us and while they were very professional with the exception of one whom took 7 days to call us with the estimate despite phone calls to their office seeking the quote, we opted to move with Vegaline Moving Services due to the comfort level we felt after speaking with one of the owners of the company, Mark Guzman. we had exchanged several emails, along with a few phone conversations going over the other estimates from the companies that visited our home. There were many items of note that required special care in order to be moved, including but not limited to, a Steinway Concert Grand piano that has been in our family for 90 years, 3 arcade sized games, 2 pinball machines, valuable antiques, 2 motorcycles, etc. We needed the moving company to build specialty crates for those items and with Vegaline Moving Services, they had a professional crating company come to our home 72 hours prior to the pack and load date, build the crates to specification and then the movers would simply have to load them onto the truck. Scheduled pack day was Monday May the 3rd and Tim and Mark came early in the moring and had 4 hired men from coincidentally one of the moving companies we had to our residence for an estimate and they put on a show. Tim began with an inventory list of every single item, 3 other of the men began packing literally within 5 minutes of showing up and they tore that house up in a good way. Keep in mind, we were moving over 30,000 pounds worth of items that had been sitting in the house for years and years and these guys came in and knocked it out in 3 days between the packing and loading. Having never moved before we had really no idea to expect and this company really over exceeded our expectations of what a professional moving company should be and do. The quotes for the move varied by company, $40,000 from one, $29,000 from another and $33,000 from a third, Vegaline Moving Services was $31,000 from start to finish and they earned every single dollar. They came with a semi truck and a large uhaul sized truck and managed to make it to Maine 6 days after the pick up. We are not moving again god willing, but anybody that we know looking for a mover will get Vegaline Moving Services phone number and information.

Approximate cost of services:
$3,100.00
