Busy Boy Moving and Storage

Highly recommend. Greg, Wes and Tyler worked all day at our 4 stop move and managed to get a huge freezer into our small basement with a narrow hallway. They also put our bed frames back together which was so appreciated! Great team and would definitely use them again.

My firm has worked with Busy Boy for our client installations for a while now - Steve, Greg, Tyler, Keith, Devrick really know what they are doing. The crews always show up with a smile, take great care of all the details and are open to going the extra mile when something unexpected crops up.

Great team at Busy Boy. They have delivered furniture for my wood shop for 5 years and it’s been a great experience all around!

An amazing experience with Steve, Dustin & Keith!!! They went above & beyond with making sure all of our furniture was handled with care (cleaned their hands before handling our white furniture), removed artwork from one wall as to not knock it down while bringing in our couches, and took the extra time to put felt pads on our kitchen chairs! Steve inspected all of the pieces that were brought in, gave us tips on how to get the best performance out of our carpets, and had a great sense of humour. I would highly recommend this company!!! Thank you so much Busy Boys! You rock!

Hands-down the best moving experience we have ever had! Great company to work with and i will recommend to all my friends and family. Keith, Anton, and Jay were amazing; all super diligent at making sure our items were safe and secure and very respectful of cleanliness within the homes. They were an absolute pleasure to work with! Thanks guys!

Frustrating - I called Busy Boy Moving for a quote because of their deliveries for Montauk Sofa and good online reviews. They came to our home, estimated weight of our possessions, sent a written quote with a delivery timeline of 7 to 21 days (long distance to another province), said driver they’d use was a guy named Jeff who drives long haul for Montauk sofa, he’d use his semi and we could pay Busy Boy by credit card with no additional fee. I discussed in detail with Busy Boy’s Dave who assured me that everything would be in good hands, and described exactly how our things would be loaded and transported in Jeff’s semi before we decided that was quote we’d go with (was pricey but we felt we could trust and didn’t want to take a chance with things that were important to us). After all our possessions were loaded for the move and we flew out of Calgary, things changed dramatically. The amount owing quickly became thousands more than the written quote, claims were made for even higher weight, immediate payment in full for higher amount would only be accepted by cash, wire transfer or other deposits to bank accounts, and possibility of extra fees was mentioned. We worried we chose badly but not anything we could do at that point since payment in full was required before our possessions would be delivered so we kept tone friendly and paid by e-transfers since we wanted our possessions safe but we kept clear records since beginning and this way would have proof of payments as well. 7-21 days turned into 30 days (which is last day insurance companies cover goods in transit) and just before that date, we were told of additional requirement for $1,000 cash payment directly to the driver before we could have our possessions (driver was no longer Jeff and was a kid named Ben Carignan who said Jeff was his dad). We paid Ben by e-transfer who then showed up with all of our stuff badly shoved into a uhaul, complaining he’d had to sleep in it for the 3 days since he left Calgary in it. Uhaul confirmed they don’t have a truck with max capacity that could even take the original quote for weight let alone the much higher weight we were told ours was weighed at. The damages to our stuff caused by lack of even at least wrapping things in a blanket were frustrating (bad ugly scrapes, big chips, snapped floor lamp). These were things we cared enough about to move cross country. Driver Ben said reason he took apart (snapped) the expensive floor lamp we’d collapsed and wrapped ourselves was that even though it would fit well into semi it wouldn’t fit into uhaul otherwise. They hired a couple of local guys to do unloading. Busy Boy should be ashamed.

I’ve been working with Busy Boy for 7 years now to do furniture pick ups and deliveries for my company. The staff is always courteous, hardworking and careful with the furniture. There was recently an issue with billing and Dave the company owner called me directly within an hour to resolve it, answering my questions respectfully and with kindness. I truly appreciate the level of communication and professionalism this moving company has provided over the years. 5 Star service all the way!

John, Mack, and Gregg were exceptionally fast, professional, and careful with our belongings on our recent move. We moved a few older, really delicate plants and while movers don't guarantee these items, they got them in our new home safe and sound. Thank you John, Mack, and Gregg for being so attentive and detail oriented.

Movers Devrick and Darren were amazing. Happy attitude and quick work.I had an absolute pleasure of using this company. I needed to move while I was still post-op from a hernia/appendix removal surgery. The two guys arrived on time at the pick-up and were fast and professional to get things moved to the truck, taking time to wrap up the items of higher vulnerability. At the drop off this wonderful work ethic had not changed as they were just as fast, but cautious to ensure no damage happened. I will definitely recommend this company and use them again in the future.
