International move

I just recently had Canadian Van Lines just move us from Arizona to Toronto & from our experience we highly sincerely would recommend them for your local or long distance move!

I dealt with Dennis directly with ease & he had NO issues with my requests.

He takes each client as an individual attending carefully to each circumstance.

All our furniture arrived in tact where every other company I used in the past I ALWAYS had something broken scratched or missing!

I find he is flexible & will do what it takes to satisfy you!

He always answers his phone & emails.

The crew was very friendly good guys& great to deal with.

I already scheduled them for our local move coming up!

Long-distance move from Toronto, ON to Edmonton, AB

Stress free Moving!

We recently used Royal Canadian Van Lines for our long-distance move from Toronto to Edmonton, and we couldn't be more pleased with the experience. From the very beginning, their team was professional, responsive, and informative, setting clear expectations about the moving process and the estimated delivery time of 2-3 weeks.

To our great satisfaction, our belongings arrived right on the 15th day—right in the middle of the estimated timeframe—which gave us peace of mind and made our transition to a new city smooth and stress-free. Everything was delivered in excellent condition, and the movers were courteous, careful, and efficient on both ends of the move.

Moving across provinces can be overwhelming, but Royal Canadian Van Lines made the entire experience seamless. We highly recommend them to anyone looking for reliable and timely moving services!

Long-distance move from Toronto, ON to Vancouver, BC

Truck caused damage to storage company door

My daughter hired this company for a move from Toronto to Vancouver. Based on her reference we too used them for our move to Vancouver. We hired them in August 2021 and our stuff was in storage till June 2022. Our experience with the sales person Dennis is he is very rude and discourteous. We organised for the company to deliver our stuff to a storage in Vancouver on June 6th, 2022. The truck while doing it damaged the door at the storage. We called Dennis about it and he asked us to take it up with Dispatch at Vancouver. The guys at Dispatch asked us to take it up with Dennis, sales. When I contacted Dennis again he asked me to inform the storage company to make a claim against the insurance of the truck but failed to provide any details of the insurance of the truck. All the while he was very rude while speaking. This is apart from the fee of several thousand dollars that I and my daughter have paid for the move and storage. I strongly do not recommend this company to anybody

Hi Prasad,
Sorry to hear about your recent experience after storing your goods with us for over 6 months and having a damage free move cross country. We do not want to hear that our clients are not fully satisfied with their moving service. We would love to help you for this matter. Please have your storage company call or email us and the insurance company representative will take it from there. We did ask you that information for sometime, however haven't heard back from you. That all being said, any other offers or cash settlement will not be offered from our firm for that storage company's damaged door.

Excellent movers

Used their cross border service and glad that I chose them. Very fast and reasonably priced. I recommend using their full packing service. Movers were very careful packing my fine china. All the dining tables and beds were dismantled and assembled at the delivery. Very positive customer service I got from their head office. Move was from New Jersey to Markham, ON

International move from Niagara Falls, ON to Wesley Chapel, FL

Moving from Canada to USA

Be careful with price and Cat scale. Be ready to pay at least $2000 more/overage for long distance move. I would recommend to go with them to verify the prior CAT scale and after load CAT scale. Otherwise, you would pay ended up $2000 more.

Move size: 2 Bedroom Home Service cost: $6000

Official company response

Hi Ketan,
Thank you for sharing your experience with us. We are happy to hear about this case and hope we can help you understand that you are not overpaid. We did scale the load and you did not attend the scaling process which is normal and it happens a lot in the industry but we went above and beyond and offered you free re-scaling process so you can experience our industry leading "transparent operation". Any you responded as quoted "No, not needed I know what I move, it was more but I am just surprised I had that much weight. So we did not scaled it again and you paid the balance as required. That being said, we are usually very accurate for pre-move estimates and final weights but this time you told us at the beginning that you have less than what our sales team estimating that you probably have and you get yourself a surprise at the end but it was all expected since our salesperson are good at their job. You said exactly as quoted below;

""""Based on my estimated weight it should be around 2000 lbs however I'm willing to pay @$1.00/lbs for extra weight. See below items list

Leather Sofa, loveseat and ottomans
78 box
8 fedex bags
1 tv
3 queen mattress
4 twin mattress
8 Travel bags
2 study table (do you want me dissemble ?)
1 queen bed
1 chest drawer
3 IKEA standard coffee table"""

Even someone not working in the industry can realize that this list far beyond 2000lbs but once again, you insisted that you have less but in reality government certified scale station ticket shows that you had more. We have the list of items you moved, if you still want us to collect your load locally and scale them, we are still offering that to you, free of charge. Please email us at info@royalcanadianvanlines.ca so we can arrange that for you. It will cost the company some dollars to do the re-scaling process but if we are making one more client happy, it will worth every penny.

Long-distance move from Quebec to British Columbia

Long distance move from MOntreal to Vancouver Island

Very satisfied with Royal Canadian Van Lines. It was not an easy move: all the way from Montreal to Qualicum Beach on the Vancouver Island. It required lots of manipulations and a high risk for breaking or losing valuables.

Royal Canadian van Lines came in at a reasonable price compared to many other companies. They respected their engagement from start to finish with an invoice that matched 100% the initial quote, within promised delays.

Staff was always respectful and handled furniture and boxes with care. Dennis has been amazing! He responded to all inquiries we had / he is on the ball at all times!

I would definitely recommend Royal Canadian Van Lines.

Long-distance move from Toronto, ON to Halifax, NS

One Word - AMAZING!

I recently used Royal Canadian Van Lines for my move from Toronto to Halifax, and I couldn't be happier with the service I received. From start to finish, they were professional, efficient, and incredibly helpful.

The entire process, from getting a quote to the actual move, was smooth and hassle-free. The team arrived promptly on moving day and quickly got to work loading up my two-bedroom apartment. They handled all of my belongings with care and made sure everything was securely packed for the long journey ahead.

Despite the distance, my belongings arrived in Nova Scotia right on schedule, and nothing was damaged or missing. The movers were courteous and friendly throughout the entire process, and they even helped me set up some of the larger furniture pieces in my new home.

What's more, the price was very reasonable. At $3000 for a two-bedroom apartment move from Toronto to Halifax, I couldn't have asked for better value.

Overall, I highly recommend Royal Canadian Van Lines to anyone in need of a reliable and professional moving service. They made a potentially stressful experience completely stress-free, and I'm extremely grateful for their hard work and dedication.

Reliable and Professional Moving Service with Transparent Pricing

We recently used Royal Canadian Van Lines and had an excellent experience. Their quoting rate and estimation process were transparent and accurate, with no hidden fees or surprises, which made budgeting straightforward.

Their responsiveness was impressive. From my initial inquiry to the final delivery, they promptly addressed any questions, ensuring smooth communication.

The pickup service and packing were exceptional. The team arrived on time, handled everything carefully, and packed my belongings efficiently and securely, preventing any damage during the move.

I highly recommend Royal Canadian Van Lines for their reliable, professional, and stress-free moving service.

Outstanding Relocation Experience

We recently used Royal Canadian to manage the international relocation of our two sons from Toronto - one to New Jersey and the other to Pittsburgh both in the US, and the service was exceptional from start to finish. The move involved two separate pickup locations (private residence and a storage unit), and the team handled everything smoothly, including disassembly and reassembly of furniture.

They were flexible when we requested an additional large item pickup even after the initial pickup, and communication throughout was clear and professional. We were advised of arrival 1-2 days before to allow service elevator booking in my sons respective apartment. Everything arrive on time and in great condition.

Highly recommend Royal Canadian to anyone looking for a reliable, responsive and stress-free relocation.

Toronto to Calgary 4-bedroom house move

After extensive research, we chose Royal Canadian Van Lines for our move from Toronto to Calgary. Moving a 4-bedroom house was a significant undertaking, so finding the right company was crucial. After interviewing two other major companies, we decided on Royal Canadian Van Lines. Dennis was responsive from the outset, answering all our questions without pressuring us, which we appreciated.

On the day of the move, the team arrived punctually and packed everything exceptionally well, exceeding our expectations. We were particularly concerned about some glass furniture, but their careful packing and shipping ensured everything arrived intact. They also provided transparency about the weight of our items by sharing the truck's weight before and after loading, which gave us peace of mind.

Our belongings arrived earlier than expected and were placed in storage until we arrived. It appears Royal Canadian Van Lines collaborates with another company for unloading and delivering items to specific rooms. Everything was handled as promised.

If there's one area for improvement, it would be communication between Royal Canadian Van Lines and the local delivery team. Although our items were delivered successfully, we encountered a few instances of "we don't know," which could be avoided for a smoother customer experience.

Overall, our experience was excellent, and we would definitely hire them again for future moves.

2nd time using their service, still the same great experience! Dennis is very good at communicating since the very beginning. Fees are extremely reasonable in comparison to others. And even it's my 2nd time using them, they managed to completed the move from Point A to B faster than the 1st time! Dennis is also very attentive even after the move for an additional request.

Great

We had a pleasant and positive experience using RCVL for moving internationally. From the beginning, Dennis went above and beyond to accommodate our needs. He was very nice and understanding. The communication was clear at every step of the process and we knew exactly what to expect. The best part was when we received our belongings sooner than the expected date after we provided our destination address. We were very happy with the packing service as well. I definitely recommend RCVL for anyone who is seeking a competitive pricing and hassle-free moving.

Great movers

Moved from Florida to Ontario

1st time using their service so had several phone calls and emails all of which were answered quickly and politely. They arrived on schedule to pick everything up and wrapped all furniture well. We were told because we were moving from US to Canada we would have to go to customs to clear delivery of goods. In the end Royal Canadian managed to do everything so we did not have to go there. Everything arrived as scheduled and damage free. Don’t hesitate to use them, they were excellent and their price was very reasonable

Thanks Dennis and team.

Local move from Sarnia, ON to Toronto, ON

Good movers, good team.

Royal Canadian Van Lines made our last move a very enjoyable one. The movers arrived very much on time. They were so friendly and helpful. We weren’t fully packed when they came. They helped us pack everything and loaded all our boxes to the van. They delivered few days later with all our things intact. I have to mention the foreman, who was absolutely fantastic at leading his men and doing such a good job. They arrive 2 days later than expected and they did not mention about free storage which I could use but cannot blame on them fully but overall I will still give them 5 stars.

Long-distance move from Toronto, ON to Victoria, BC

Ontario to west coast: good communication & service.

We moved from Ontario to Vancouver Island with Royal Canadian Van Lines. Dennis and every dispatcher I spoke with was always very responsive and helpful over email and phone. They picked up our stuff on the scheduled day (a bit outside the time range they gave, but that wasn't a problem and to be expected with moving companies), and delivered it right on time. The moving crews were very helpful and polite. Our stuff was packed well—just a few bits of wear and tear on the boxes, but again, I suspect this is typical for any move. It took about two weeks for our stuff to arrive on the west coast, and final delivery was made a week after that.

This was my first time doing a long-distance move, and I was horrified by the reviews I read for the vast majority of companies. Royal Canadian Van Lines had one of the higher initial quotes I received, but the reviews were consistent, and my research suggests that many other companies lowball you for the initial quote and then add on costs wherever they can.

I obviously can't speak for what our experience with any other company would have been like, but I'm very satisfied with our move with Royal Canadian Van Lines.

Thanks for the awesome move.

After my sister in law suggested using Royal Canadian Van Lines, I figured I should try them out. They arrived on time as they promised and the crew were very friendly and so efficient. All the furniture was wrapped well even the bike :) and they also brought some wardrobe boxes to use for my clothes. Our salesman Dennis stopped by to check on the guys and supervise the loading team. That was beyond expected. Thanks to them to make this stressful move to an easy peasy lemon squeezy. Recommend to all.

Long-distance move from London, ON to Charlottetown, PE

What a bad experience: very expensive and very offensive sales person

I paid $ 3318 for moving one bedroom apartment from London Ontario to Charlottetown PEI and at the same time they have an extremely rude sales person who is skillful in changing facts, speak in a very offensive way and language

and made me feel that he is doing me favors while he was fixing his own mistakes (Dennis).

I was threatened by this person that my stuff would be thrown in a public storage and I called them the police.

Move size: 1 Bedroom Home Service cost: $3318

Official company response

Thanks for the review. The quote was upfront with no extra fee added later. The delivery truck did not get to your unit and we rented a Uhaul since you didn't have a licence and performed the delivery with no additional fee on the very same day and I don't know how else we can provide a better service than that. Good luck with your next move and moving company.

Long-distance move from Ontario to Nova Scotia

Absolutely disappointed

They quit at Job at took 500 dollars of contract. Day of move China plates were not to be boxed and disappointed with worker. Contract 1200 paid and thus. All boxes and I was ready for move. I was upset with situation but had to said “fill your boots.” He questioned my list and now wanted to enter house and inventory the house. I had everything to go. Listed and marked! I wasn’t interested and ready to continue getting my items moved. He felt humiliated (no one there) and left without touching a thing. I’m willing to pay whatever the cost pays. Just get it done and wanted to speak with Dennis. This person didn’t want to talk any way but started every item in the house. Items that I wasn’t taking. Waisting both of our times. The other worker stated that I should let him know what we should to take and I said that’s the way quick way and he again did not like hearing that and quit the job and help humiliated. Ridiculous! 5 years old! Just work! I need my items out of the house and he quit! I never wore a mask. The company never let me know I should or at the time. The Manager then stated that I should of due to Ontario Policy. If that’s the case and you are reputable then let the customer know and the safety of your workers!!! Whole situation smells stinky. Non professional. If you really need to do the job come by in person and see yourself. Your guys quit and took 500 dollars. Fraud. Humiliated in front of who? Have some back bone. Just quit their job!! Stay away…be prepared!!!!

Official company response

Thank you for the review. The review actually tells everything but let me sum it up as well. The client did not wear a mask; It is in a middle of a pandemic and our movers are delivering goods from one house to another and we are not taking risks and do not have to warn you to have your mask on so many times.

He refused us to take the inventory list which is a very regular procedure to do on the moving date in order to make sure the items are properly packed, loaded and delivered. Called our regular procedure a "waste of time" and continue using abusive language towards our team and we have zero toleration for that kind of behaviour and had no choice but to come back to the warehouse and still refunded his deposit which was non-refundable. The client called after and apologized about what he did was wrong and asked us to come back but again this time movers were not feeling safe to go back to his house.

Once again, front line workers in the middle of the pandemic do not deserve those kinds of bad behaviour especially when they are doing their job professionally.
