MOVING DAY

HERE IS A PICTURE OF A FEW CREW MEMBERS LOADING A SHIPMENT TO GO TO THE USA. THE CLIENT WAS VERY HAPPY WITH THE CREW!!!
Everything is stacked like a jigsaw puzzle so it fits in the truck nice and snug. This ensures there is little to no movement which reduces the likelihood of damage.

Packing and Unpacking before and after your move

We are all very busy people these days trying to find time for work, family, and a personal life. Whether you are moving locally or long distance, sometimes it is more convienient to have someone Pack and or Unpack your goods to alleviate any extra stress.

Professional Packing Makes a Difference

Proper packing is critical to a successful move. Your possessions represent both an emotional and a monetary investment which deserve the best care available.

Consider having King's professionals pack for you to ensure your possessions arrive at your new home safely. Even if you are on a tight budget we would recommend that you use the services of King's professional packers for your most delicate china and breakables.

If you decide to do some or all of your own packing, your King's moving consultant can provide you with proper packing cartons, packing paper and tape at a nominal cost. King's also offer gently used moving cartons at a reduced cost.

King's can arrange to have custom built wooden crates for items such as antiques, marble tabletops, large oil paintings and other priceless possessions that are part of your move.

Calgary Moving

Calgary Moving - Calgary is definitely a booming town. For that reason for the past few years there has been a proliferation of office buildings being constructed and numerous new companies appeared on the Calgary landscape. Your company might just be one of them!

When choosing a moving company for an office move one must choose carefully. While Calgary might boast numerous moving companies, you have to make sure to pick the right one! In order to do that you need to make some informed decisions. What truck size is needed? How many men? Pack and Move? On what date?

The truck size will depend on the office location and physical importance. Small office moving locally can use 1 ton trucks without power tailgate with 2-3 men. One load is usually sufficient. Larger offices will require a 5 ton truck, power tailgate and at least 3 men.

Should you pack yourself or use the movers? Packing does add to the cost of the move but the insurance coverage will be better saving you money in the eventuality that something goes wrong. Additionally, items packed by professional movers will actually make the move go more quickly and efficiently, in the case of an hourly move, using packing services sometimes winds up costing less. As an added bonus, you can reuse the boxes free of charge the next time you move.

What date should you move on? Just like residential moving, Calgary gets very busy at the end of the month, so we recommend you move mid month. Things are more relaxed then, the workers are "fresher" and there is more room for error. We offer mid month discounts, please contact us for details.

KING'S TRANSFER COMMUNITY SUPPORT

King's Transfer is a proud supporter of "Canada Company"

“Canada Company is a charitable, non-partisan organization that serves to build the bridge between business and
community leaders and the Canadian Military. Our Goal is to ensure that the men and women in our Canadian Forces receive the widest support, care and recognition that they deserve.” with great appreciation. 

Our Chief Operating Officer Dennis O'Neill was fortunate enough to be invited to a day at CFB Wainwright. He was invited to partake in several military exercises, this is what he had to say about this once in a lifetime opportunity...

“Through Canada Company I was part of a group of 40 that was invited up to  CFB Wainwright to view some military exercises.

They picked us up in the Hercules you see in the pictures and flew us from Calgary to CFB Wainwright.  We spent the day with

The troops and witnessed a mock battle. It certainly gave me a new perspective on our Military and the ladies and gentlemen

Who serve.  It was an awesome experience and one that I will never forget.”

I would like to thank all those at CFB Wainwright that took care of us that day.  (including my shooting instructor)
