A thoughtful way to get there.

Built around Comox

Comox entrances and loading.
Show the route to each room.

A downtown home near the harbour, a condo with a reserved lift and a family property with garden access do not share one moving-day setup. Give the office the actual entrances, loading arrangements and home readiness at both ends of the move.

  • Downtown and shared spaces

    Identify where the truck can lawfully stand and how the crew enters the property. Loading should keep the public route and neighbouring access usable; discuss any building or municipal requirements before booking.

  • Condo and residence appointments

    Check approved moving hours, lift reservations and the manager’s documents. Provide the room or unit layout and contact before scheduling a senior or downsizing move into a residence.

  • Driveway and garden access

    Show narrow gates, steps, grades and turning space. Outdoor furniture, sheds and garage contents should be included in the inventory, with any awkward pieces or unusual materials identified for review.

  • Travel and key timing

    Tell the office if your personal departure or arrival differs from the household shipment. Nominate an authorised contact for keys and decisions, and discuss Nanaimo storage when possession or travel leaves a gap.

Plan before the truck arrives

A home to leave.
A home to arrive at.

The useful plan connects the belongings, property access and confirmed time windows. An early conversation can identify the packing, storage or handover stages that need their own arrangement.

Complete the moving estimate form

  1. Make decisions before packing

    Mark the destinations before packing: next home, family, storage or approved removal. Measure furniture against the new rooms and doorways, photograph difficult pieces and identify goods needing packing help.

  2. Connect dates with access

    Give pickup and delivery addresses, keys, building reservations and personal travel plans. If an administrator sets relocation requirements, provide them for review rather than assuming any programme affiliation or acceptance.

  3. Review and prepare

    Agree the written service scope, estimate, terms and coverage. Reserve building access, label destination rooms, keep daily essentials with you and tell the office when inventory or dates change.

Senior moves & downsizing

A change of pace.
A move with clear decisions.

A Comox downsizing or senior relocation often begins with deciding how the next home will work. Measure the room layout, choose the furniture and identify the essentials needed immediately. A family or residence contact can help confirm moving hours, entry and where the belongings should go.

Goods held for later can be reviewed for Nanaimo storage, while approved unwanted items can be discussed for removal. Keep these groups clearly labelled before packing. If you will be travelling, agree who can authorise storage release or provide delivery access; the personal itinerary and the furniture schedule are separate parts of the move.

Estimate, charges & coverage

The right truck and crew.
The actual job in writing.

The inventory, access and services determine the truck, crew and work for your Comox move. Use the current estimate and published terms to review the charges that apply to your booking.

Minimum and moving time

The current published terms state a four-hour minimum for all services. Review actual work, the service scope and the applicable minimum in your written estimate.

Nanaimo travel and return

Review travel from the Nanaimo operation and return-to-yard travel in the job estimate. A short distance between two Valley homes is only part of the work.

Equipment, supplies and fuel

Confirm the applicable equipment, supplies and fuel charges, along with packing, storage or added services. Ask the office to explain the complete estimate and coverage before booking.

Your written estimate and booking documents confirm the applicable rates, scope, terms and coverage.

Moving beyond the Valley

A wider route.
A written shipment plan.

For a long-distance or long-haul relocation, discuss the destination, inventory, packing, access and any gap before possession. Canada-wide arrangements through Great Canadian Van Lines are reviewed for your move, with pickup and delivery windows confirmed in writing.

Specialty movers in Comox

Renovating around a specialty item in Comox? Our Nanaimo-based team can assess a relocation or a move out and back, with each stage planned around access and room readiness.

Pianos

Share whether the piano is upright, grand or baby grand, its dimensions, and photos of stairs, landings and entrances at both addresses. Keep the destination space ready; the estimate confirms the moving plan. Explain whether you need one stage or two.

Pool tables

Our available pool table technician supports professional moves, including solid-slate tables. Send table details and access photos so technician timing, handling, reassembly and any levelling requirements can be confirmed in the estimate. Confirm when the room will be ready again.

Hot tubs

The tub must be drained and ready before moving. Share dimensions and route photos. Plan any electrical disconnection with a qualified professional; confirm preparation and the access method before booking. Identify the temporary and final positions when relevant.

Other oversized items need the same attention to dimensions and access. Send both addresses and photos so the estimate can confirm the scope.

Talk to TALO

Do you handle local Comox moves?

Yes. Local household and business moving can be reviewed from our Nanaimo operation. Give the addresses, inventory, dates and access details so the office can confirm availability and the estimate.

Are your warehouses in Comox?

No. Our two physical facilities are in Nanaimo, with more than 8,000 square feet combined warehouse and storage space. Comox customers can arrange reviewed collection, storage and later delivery.

Where can I get moving boxes and supplies?

The physical supplies store is at 1907 Wilfert Road in Nanaimo. Confirm stock, quantities and pickup before travelling, or discuss supplies arranged with a booked Comox moving or packing job.

Can you help with senior moves and downsizing?

Yes. Discuss the next room layout, family or residence contact and belongings for immediate delivery, storage or removal. Packing and related services can be connected when their scope and schedule are agreed.

Do you offer Comox long-distance and long-haul moving?

Yes. Send the destination, inventory, preferred collection dates and confirmed possession. The office reviews the Island, BC, Alberta or Canada-wide arrangement through Great Canadian Van Lines, including packing, any storage gap and the delivery window.

Can a posting-related relocation be discussed?

Yes. Supply the dates, documents and any relocation-administrator requirements. The office confirms acceptance and suitable arrangements; this page does not claim programme affiliation or automatic approval.

Can Comox businesses use freight receiving and warehousing?

Reviewed receiving, storage or cross-docking in Nanaimo can connect with planned Comox delivery. Provide the carrier, count, dimensions, weights, arrival window and ready date before directing goods to a facility.

Can cleaning or removal happen around the move?

Yes, the sequence can be discussed. Agree accepted removal items, cleaning tasks and the empty-property time, along with the key or possession deadline. Each service has its own confirmed scope.
