The Elite Standard for Long Distance Relocation Between ON, AB, and BC
Moving your life across the country requires more than just a truck; it requires a predictable system.
At MTS Moving, we specialize exclusively in long-distance residential moves between Ontario, Alberta, and British Columbia.
Unlike brokers who sell your shipment to the lowest bidder, we own the process.
From our 4.9-star reputation to our exclusive MTS-trained crews, every detail is engineered to provide a stress-free transition for families and professionals who value transparency over empty promises.
Real moves, real people
What our customers say about our team
That Cheap Moving Quote You Got? They Flat-Out Lied to You!
You’ve been told to get three quotes and pick the one in the middle.
But here’s what no one tells you: most long-distance quotes are bait. And you’re the fish.
It starts with a number that sounds too good to be true… because it is.
You pick the “reasonable” quote. A little lower than the others. The rep is nice, the website looks legit, and you’re told everything’s included.
Then moving day hits.
Your stuff gets loaded. The truck disappears around the corner. A few hours later, the call comes in:
“Your shipment came in 1,700 lbs over. That’s another $2,000.”
Now your belongings are on the truck. And unless you pay, they’re not coming off.
But Not Every Company Plays That Game.
After hearing the horror stories, the biggest question is always: "How can I actually trust a long-distance moving company?" Our answer isn't a promise. It's proof.
Recent customer Biba said it best in a Google review: “From the initial consultation to final delivery, every step was handled with professionalism and care… The Calgary crew's attention to detail gave me confidence my items were in good hands. Would absolutely recommend this company to others relocating provinces.”
The Details That Make All the Difference
At MTS, we quote honestly, weigh transparently, and deliver exactly what we promise, coast to coast.
Here’s how you stay in control every step of the way:
You See the Actual Weight
No guessing. No estimates. We show you a video of your shipment on a government-certified scale, so you know exactly what you're paying for.
You Get a Guaranteed Delivery Window
We guarantee a three-week delivery window. We provide you with a date you can plan around, and if we miss it, we pay you because your time matters more than our excuses.
You Know Who’s Handling Your Move
From pickup to delivery, it’s one MTS crew for each province; not a mix of random subcontractors. You know who’s got your stuff, and you know they’re professionals.
MTS Moving vs The Industry
Swipe horizontally to see the full table
| Factor | MTS Moving | The Industry |
|---|---|---|
| Weight Verification | 100% Video-Verified. You receive a video of your shipment on a government-certified scale. | "The Honor System." You are expected to trust a paper ticket with no visual proof of your actual load. |
| Delivery Commitment | Guaranteed 1–3 Week Window. If we are late, we pay you $50 per day. (1 Week Between AB and BC) | Open-Ended Windows. Many carriers provide "ranges" that can stretch to 6+ weeks with no late compensation. |
| Crew Accountability | Exclusively MTS-Trained Teams. We never use third-party carriers or random subcontractors. | Broker Network / Sub-contractors. Your life is often handed off to a local "agent" you did not hire. |
| Damage Protection | $1.50/lb Coverage. Zero deductible. Included standard on every long-distance move. | $0.60/lb Coverage. Often carries a $250–$500 deductible buried in the fine print. |
| Real-Time Visibility | Online Move Portal. Track your shipment milestones and talk to a dedicated human coordinator. | The "Moving Blackout." Zero communication for weeks once the truck leaves your driveway. |
| Pricing Integrity | No Hidden Fees. Our final quote is based on actual verified weight. | The "Bait & Switch." Low-ball estimates that often double in price once your items are on the truck. |
| Verified Reputation | 4.9-Star Rating. Backed by 740+ 5-star Google reviews, an A+ BBB Rating, CAM Member, and a HomeStars Best of 2024 Award. | Poor Google Reviews, no BBB accreditation, and no CAM Membership. |
How it works
The MTS Journey
How we move you, start to finish — four calm, accountable steps.
- 1
Book your move with a live video call with one of our moving consultants. We'll walk through your home together, review every item, and calculate a proper, accurate quote, no guesswork, no surprises, no hidden fees later.
- 2
On moving day, our MTS-trained movers handle your belongings with care and precision. From careful wrapping to organized loading, you'll get the world-class move you deserve, handled start to finish by our own team, never third parties.
- 3
Track your shipment across the country using our moving tracker and relax knowing exactly where your goods are at all times. Your move stays within our guaranteed delivery window, backed by real accountability and professional handling throughout transit.
- 4
Delivery day is easy. Just point to where you want everything to go, and we'll place your furniture and boxes exactly where they belong. No rushing, no chaos, just a clean, calm finish to your move.
You've Heard the Scam: “Sorry, Your Stuff Weighed More.
That's how most horror stories start. Here's how yours doesn't. We roll your truck onto a government-certified scale, before and after loading, and record the whole thing on video. You get the tickets. You get the footage. You pay for what you actually move. Period.
No More “Moving Blackouts.” You Deserve to Know What's Going On
You've packed up your life. Now it's somewhere on a truck — but where? That's the panic most movers create. We built MTS to do the opposite. With your personal Online Move Portal, you can check progress anytime... And if you want to talk to a real human? You've got one. Your own dedicated move coordinator, just a text or call away. Because radio silence isn’t professional. It’s a red flag. And you won’t get that here.

Good to know
Is your quote really the final price?
Ontario to Alberta: Typically 1 to 3 weeks from pickup to delivery.
Ontario to British Columbia: 1 to 3 weeks as well.
Alberta to British Columbia: Within 1 week.
Every move includes a guaranteed delivery window, real-time tracking, and $50 per day late compensation if we miss that window, so you always know when to expect your belongings.
Most moving companies cover $0.60 per pound with a deductible. MTS Moving includes $1.50 per pound with no deductible, which means nearly five times more coverage and greater peace of mind.
Long distance moving companies charge based on the actual weight of your goods, measured on truck scales. MTS Moving weighs your goods before and after pickup at government-approved scales and records the process on video for full transparency.
Before moving day, we provide an accurate estimate by assessing your shipment through a video call, detailed photos, or a complete inventory list. This allows us to estimate the total weight of your goods and give you a clear, honest quote before pickup.
Yes. We cannot move propane tanks, liquids, perishable goods, valuables, paperwork, medications, or plants. These items pose safety risks, may spoil, or can be damaged during long-distance transport. Keep them with you during the move.
No. Our movers are paid above industry standards and do not expect tips. If you choose to tip, they’ll be grateful, but it’s never required.
Yes. Please empty all drawers. Extra weight can cause damage and make items unsafe to lift.
