Starting prices are not a quote for every load or address. Your booking price depends on the items, distance, date, stairs, elevators, parking and carry distance you disclose. Extra items, waiting time, route changes or undisclosed access problems can lead to adjustments. Review the booking terms and charges before confirming.

Where and when you can book

Pickup, drop-off and stop addresses must be in British Columbia. You can request moves between BC cities; route and date availability depends on your items and available movers. Same-day bookings are not available. Request a date from the next day up to 30 days ahead.

For a ferry-dependent route, confirm availability, who books the sailing and how ferry-related charges are handled before committing to travel.

What to confirm before moving day

  • List each item and disclose stairs, slopes, long carries and access restrictions at both addresses.
  • Arrange legal loading and any building or elevator booking. Check fees or deposits with the property manager.
  • Have items packed and ready. Confirm packing, assembly or other extra work separately before assuming it is included.
  • Confirm the independent provider’s coverage and any limits. Tingsapp does not itself insure your goods.

Plan your Vancouver move

Plan elevator bookings, legal curb access and walk-up stairs before choosing your move time.

Vancouver neighborhoods we serve

We move homes, small loads and bulky items across these Vancouver neighborhoods. Here is what changes on moving day in each, from stairs and elevators to parking.

Kitsilano

Character houses split into suites, with basement units and narrow interior stairs. Back lanes are often the easiest place to load.

Yaletown

Concrete towers with loading bays and strict move windows. Book the service elevator early, especially at month-end.

Mount Pleasant

Older walk-ups beside newer condos along Main Street and Kingsway; check building type at both ends, because the stair count drives the price.

West End

A dense mix of older low-rise walk-ups and towers. Walk-ups often mean two or three flights of stairs, and legal curb space can be limited; check whether a street occupancy permit is appropriate.

Gastown

Heritage buildings, narrow streets and cobblestones on parts of Water Street. Loading takes more planning than in newer areas.

Also serving the greater Vancouver area

Tingsapp also serves nearby municipalities and communities in the greater Vancouver service area, subject to local availability.

Moving in Vancouver: what to know before you book

For a Vancouver apartment or condo move, confirm legal truck parking, the building’s move window and the route from the loading area to your unit. For Kitsilano suites and West End walk-ups, count stairs and measure tight turns before requesting your quote. Tingsapp connects you with independent movers for home moves, small loads and store delivery.

Local guidance reviewed . Check linked official resources for changes before moving day.

Parking the truck: temporary street occupancy permits

On metered or time-limited streets, the City of Vancouver issues temporary street occupancy permits that reserve curb space for a moving truck. The City posts no-parking signs ahead of your date, so apply early: processing takes 7 to 10 business days after payment.

A permit cannot be used to move a car that was legally parked before the signs went up, and it is not issued for crew parking. In the West End and Kitsilano, where curb space is scarce, confirming a legal loading position can reduce the distance items need to be carried.

Strata buildings and elevator bookings

Ask your strata or building manager for the current move rules, allowed hours, elevator booking procedure and any fee or deposit. Building requirements vary; confirm them before you book movers.

  • Book the elevator for both buildings before you book movers, then pick a move time inside both windows.
  • Ask whether the building needs elevator pads installed and which entrance or loading bay to use.
  • Tell Tingsapp about stairs or an elevator at each end; it is part of your booking price.

Timing a Vancouver move

If your lease ends at month-end, arrange the building’s move window early and compare available dates before committing to a crew.

From October to April, plan for rain: keep a path of cardboard or mats at each door, and wrap mattresses and upholstered furniture. Moves that cross to the North Shore on the Lions Gate or Ironworkers Memorial bridges go faster outside rush hour.

Before a Vancouver condo or walk-up move

  • Confirm the service-elevator window at both buildings, not just the pickup.
  • Ask which loading entrance to use and how far it is from the elevator.
  • For a suite or walk-up, record each flight of stairs, tight landing and doorway measurement.
  • Check legal curb access in advance; do not assume cones or a resident permit reserve a moving-truck space.
