Our team is fully licensed, insured, and WCB covered, which means your home, your items, and even the people doing the heavy lifting are protected from start to finish.
Whether you’re moving across Nanaimo, Parksville, Qualicum Beach, Duncan, or anywhere on Vancouver Island, you can move with confidence knowing everything is done the right way — legally, safely, and professionally.
✅ Why It Matters to be Fully Licensed insured WCB Movers
Anyone with a pickup can call themselves a mover — but that doesn’t make them a professional.
Choosing a licensed and insured company means:
-
- Your belongings are protected during transport.
- Your home is covered if accidental damage happens.
- You’re not liable if someone gets injured on your property.
Unfortunately, many “budget movers” operate without coverage or credentials. If something goes wrong, you could be left responsible for costly damages or injuries.
When you move with Take A Load Off Moving, that risk disappears — because you’re covered every step of the way.
🛡️ What “Fully Licensed” Means
We’re not a side-hustle moving crew — we’re a registered, professional moving company with the proper business licensing and commercial permits required to operate across British Columbia and Alberta. Fully Licensed insured WCB Movers
Our fleet meets CVSE standards, and every vehicle is regularly inspected and maintained for safety and reliability.
So when our truck pulls up to your driveway, you know you’re dealing with professionals who play by the rules and take their work seriously.
📦 Insured for Your Peace of Mind
Your belongings mean a lot to you — and they mean a lot to us too. That’s why we carry multiple levels of insurance to protect both you and your property:
-
- Cargo Insurance – covers your items while in transit.
- General Liability Insurance – protects your home or building if accidental damage occurs.
- Commercial Vehicle Insurance – ensures every truck on the road is fully covered for commercial use.
If anything unexpected happens, you won’t be left out of pocket. That’s real peace of mind.
💪 WCB Coverage Protects Everyone – Fully Licensed insured WCB Movers

At Take A Load Off Moving, that will never happen.
