The Absolute team was amazing. The moving teams were on time, respectful, efficient and seemed to enjoy their work. Their handling of my furniture and boxes was great. They wrapped everything to protect my property and went the extra mile to help. The office team answered all my questions and organized the move efficiently. A big thanks to all the Absolute team!
These guys were amazing to work with from start to finish! I highly recommend.
Competitive pricing, excellent service from the office down to the moving team. Movers handled our items with care and respect.
Peter and Tristan were fantastic! Both really nice guys and very professional and hard working. They exceeded our expectations and we will recommend Absolute Moving to everyone! Thank you for making our move quick and easy! Nicki & Rex 😊
Fantastic moving experience! The movers arrived right on time, handled my furniture with such care, and made the whole process stress-free. They were professional and reliable every step of the way. Kristy from customer service was also wonderful-friendly, responsive, and really supportive throughout. I truly appreciate both teams and would definitely use them again.
They were professional and very organized. They moved all our heavy furniture with smile on their faces. Great mover I highly recommend them.
Thank you thank you thank you Our move was not easy - 2 locations + lots of stairs and heavy furniture. Our movers were from the start to the end very professional and hard working. I would definitely recommend using this moving company. Thank you
Absolute helped me move today and the three gentlemen they sent were amazing! I believe their names were Slavik, Jerman and Arman but I could be wrong I am terrible with names. They helped me pack and take out some trash along with my move. Very friendly, polite, hardworking and STRONG! They were the only assistance I had during this move and they were fantastic. Even from the first phone call with Christy. I would definitely recommend and will be hiring them again for my next move. 10/10!
We have used Absolute movers a few times within our family . They are very friendly and take the worries about a move totally away . Treat your belongings like it’s their own . Prices for our moves have been very reasonable .
I had the pleasure of having Sean and Daniel help me with my move today, and I can’t say enough about how great they were. Despite the scorching heat (it was over 30°C!), they remained professional, efficient, and respectful throughout the entire move. They worked tirelessly and made sure everything was handled with care. They were by far the best movers I've ever hired – friendly, hardworking, and absolutely dedicated to getting the job done right. It’s not easy moving in this heat, but they powered through and made the whole experience as smooth as possible. I truly appreciate their hard work and attitude. I would absolutely recommend Absolute Moving and Delivery to anyone looking for reliable movers. I will definitely be using their services again in the future. Thank you both for making today’s move so much easier!
Punctual, courteous, careful and efficient. Completed a small move for me in Edmonton and it was a great experience from start to finish.
Tristen and his crew were awesome! They were efficient, careful, super organized and prepared. We have moved many times and from Christina's communications right down to the last box moved by the team this is the best experience we've had! Can't recommend them more highly!
Teagan, Tim and Ethanial were awesome!! They were so efficient, professional and moved things with care. They made our moving day amazing and took so much stress off. Thank you so much!
We were very happy with this company from start to finish.They showed up on time and finished before the designated time.The 3 great guys are Peter,Tim,and Ryan .They make s great team.I would recomend this company of dedicated workers to anyone looking for a moving company.Keep up the good work guys.
From start to finish we had a great experience with Absolute Moving. Within minutes of submitting an inquiry online I had a follow up phone call with Christy and a home visit that afternoon to give us an accurate quote. She really knows the logistics of moving and had the timing down exact and list of additional materials they would require. The guys were very personable and friendly on moving day which was appreciated because moving can be really stressful and we could all use a few laughs to lighten the mood. We have already used their services again for a third party order for home delivery and would recommend them.
Absolute came recommended by a friend and they did not disappoint. Teagan, Curtis and Jesse were careful with my belongings and communicated everything, every step of the way. The price was reasonable and the team was very efficient and prepared.
The Absolute Moving team did a great job on helping me move to my new place. I find moving to be super stressful, so thanks to Slavik, Serhii, and Mark for making it easy for me.
It all started with Christy, who made completing the estimate so easy. She was very responsive if ever I reached out. We had the pleasure of working with Shawn, Shaun, and Hugo today to move out of our home. This was a big job, moving out of our home into a townhouse, and these three made every step of the way easy and lovely. They worked so hard, had a friendly smile and positive attitude, and were flexible to make sure we were satisfied. This stressful event was made infinitely more pleasant by these 3 who worked so hard to take care of our move with expertise, care, and a great attitude. I would recommend this company to anyone who needs a move. Price was so transparent and reasonable, I would use them again in a heartbeat. Thank you to Shawn, Shaun, and Hugo.
I originally booked this company because my best friend Jessica works in the office here, however I’m beyond impressed with the crew we had Tristan, Colin, Godwin and Ayvan. They were extremely efficient, very polite and friendly, and left no damage to the house or the items. I will only use this company for moving going forward!
Slavic, Curtis, and Ethanial were troopers! Moved me from a place with a lot of stairs, into a place with a lot of stairs. They were very kind, played with my dog, and nice to my daughter. When my back was hurting, Slavik got couch pillows on the couch so I wouldn't have to sit on the floor. Thx guys!
I can't say enough great things about this moving company! From start to finish, the experience was flawless and truly above and beyond anything I expected. I needed a very heavy concrete table delivered, and not only did they take on the challenge without hesitation, but they had it delivered in less than 24 hours from my initial contact. That kind of speed and responsiveness is almost unheard of! Their communication was superb - clear, professional, and incredibly prompt. Every step of the way, I was kept informed and reassured. They didn’t just wrap the table well - they wrapped it beyond well, with incredible care and attention to detail to make sure it arrived in perfect condition. The drivers were absolute pros—strong, friendly, respectful, and so pleasant to work with. They handled the heavy lifting with ease and made a tough job look effortless. I was genuinely impressed by their teamwork, attitude, and professionalism. If you’re looking for a reliable, efficient, and truly top-tier moving company, this is the one. I would recommend them a thousand times over and will absolutely use them again in the future. Five stars just isn’t enough!
Fantastic all around! The office team were a breeze to work with, and the crew on site the day of the move went above and beyond to get us there. Tristan and his crew ABSOLUTE-ly took great care of us! Would 100% recommend!
Thank you Zach, Cole, and Choice for an efficient and seamless move. The final billed time came in lower than estimated and they graciously waited 1.5 hours for our house possession to finalize before unloading at our new home. They took great care of our multiple glass tables, including disassembly and assembly. They even disassembled our crib, although they couldn't put it back together due to liability, which is understandable. Great crew. Jessica answered all my questions via text and was very informative. She helped us every step of the way, including dropping off some wardrobe boxes for us free of charge. I would 100% consider Absolute Moving again in the future.
On time. Good service. Reasonable price. Highly recommended!
Slovak & Mike were great! Caring and patient. Great job! Highly recommend.
Teagan and his co-workers were excellent! Very efficient, polite, and took great care moving our stuff. We will definitely use them again!
Very impressed with the service that I received during my most recent experience with Absolute, I will use Absolute moving again!
Absolutely the best! Very efficient, kind and helpful.

Excellent communication, punctual, and very respectful of our home and belongings, throughout the process.They packed the trailer with great care making the most of the space while ensuring everything was secure. Moving can be very overwhelming so having the right team helped make a stressful day feel much more manageable. We highly recommend Absolute!!
Absolute Movers is great! Amanda in the office was lovely to deal with and the moving team, Zach, Choice, and Cole were very accommodating. They took care with my belongings and made sure things were put in the correct space...even told me to let them know if something needed to be moved around once in. What a hard working group! I highly recommend Absolute Movers.
Great moving experience. We have moved many, many times and this has been our best move. Great crew. Hard working and courteous. Highly recommended.
These guys did a bang up job moving me, they even stopped at another location to pick up other things before unloading at the destination. Amazing, I would hire them again in a heartbeat.
The Absolute moving team including the office are 10/10 in our experience. Zack,Choice and Ethan handled our possessions with care , they were professional and very efficient.
Used Absolute Movers and they made this move so quick and efficient for us.The gentlemen who moved us, Peter, Keegan, Tim and Max were pleasant and very hardworking. Their efficiency made our move cost less than was quoted, truly awesome. The entire staff we had the pleasure of dealing with were understanding and very helpful during the entire move. Many thanks to Christina M and Christine. Peter said my job was to relax, who can relax during a move? Me, actually I was able to relax because they were so excellent. What an awesome team! I would highly recommend this team of movers. Kind regards, Arlene
This by far is the best company I've ever used to move. From the first contact from their office to the last box being moved into our place, nothing but professional from top to bottom. My 2 movers Teagan & Killian were the best of the best. If I could I would give a 10 star to this company. Hire them you won't be disappointed! Thanks from Richard & Leslie Kaechele
Absolute Moving are, in my opinion, the best movers in Calgary. They moved my condo efficiently and quickly. The 3 guys who did the move were so friendly. They explained everything about how my furniture and belongings will be moved and stored. I was so surprised that every item was wrapped in blankets, including the chair legs. It wasn't the best weather for the day, raining, but the truck with the side door made for a very efficient move so nothing would get wet. I can now feel confident that my items will be stored without me having the worry about them, and delivered to my new house with the same ease and efficiency as the move out. Thank you so much for your help with my move, and making this the easiest part of my entire move.
I had an excellent experience with Absolute Moving and Delivery! From start to finish, their team was professional, efficient, and incredibly friendly. Max and Curtis were absolutely the best! They arrived on time, handled all of my belongings with care, and made the entire moving process stress-free. The crew was fast without compromising safety, and everything arrived at my new home in perfect condition. I also appreciated their clear communication and reasonable pricing. I highly recommend Absolute Moving and Delivery to anyone in need of reliable and top-quality moving services!
I used these guys to unload my POD into my new house. They were beyond amazing and professional. They put down floor mats and it was pouring rain outside, were drenched and still working like crazy for me. Will hire them again for my next move in a heart beat! I won't trust anyone else.
Great pricing. Great service. My go to movers.
I had a great experience using this company. Had not used a moving company before but now I will NEVER move without one. Booked pretty last minute and they were super helpful and accommodating. Had 2 pickup locations and then the condo to move everything into. Very fast. Definitely would recommend.
Exceeded expectations in all regards. Professional , great communication, fair pricing, customer focused, polite and respectful...highly recommended
We had the most wonderful crew to move our 2400 sq ft house and 5 car garage. We had two trucks and six guys. It took four truck loads. The reason we went with this company is because they could do everything. They moved our hot tub and car lift. Nothing broken and they worked hard. Would highly recommend them. Hope not to move ever again, but if we do this is who we are calling.
Absolute Moving & Delivery was absolutely awesome! They made the move completely seamless and efficient! I cannot express how impressed I was!
Great moving crew!
Excellent work. Professional and expedient
Im now 42 years old and this is my first time I’ve ever hired a moving company. They made what’s typically one of the most stressful things in life so easy. Dan and Jeff from the Edmonton Absolute Moving and Delivery team were, friendly, professional, punctual and kept me informed throughout the entire process. They navigated heavy and awkward items throughout the house with no issues and did it in a way that avoided damaged to the house and furniture. If you need to move, avoid getting friends to help you out and possible damaging things, definitely hire the team at Absolute Moving and Delivery. It’s worth every penny.

To prepare for a residential move, start by decluttering and organizing your belongings. Sort through items to determine what you want to keep, donate, or discard. This process can help reduce the number of items you need to move, making the process more efficient and cost-effective. Additionally, create a packing plan and gather necessary packing supplies. Label boxes clearly to indicate the contents and destination rooms in your new home. Notify relevant parties, such as utility companies and change of address services, and make arrangements for any necessary storage or transportation of large items.
Yes, you have the option to pack your own belongings before the move. However, if you prefer, we offer professional packing services to ensure your items are packed safely and securely.

The cost of a long-distance move is determined by several factors, including the distance between your current and new location, the size and weight of your belongings, and any additional services you require, such as packing or storage. Factors like the time of year, accessibility of your locations, and special handling requirements can also affect the cost. Our team will assess these factors and provide you with a detailed, customized quote that outlines all the costs involved, ensuring transparency and accuracy in pricing for your long-distance move.
If you're moving more than 400 miles, it's considered a long-distance move. Long-distance moves are typically more complex than local moves because there are more steps involved, such as packing, transport, delivery, and unpacking. You'll also need to plan for things like food and lodging along the way. The good news is that there are plenty of resources available to help you plan and execute a successful long-distance move. Start by giving us a call to get a free quote! We will help take care of all your long-distance moving needs, ensuring a smooth and stress-free relocation experience.
Moving homes is a significant undertaking, and ensuring the safety of your belongings is paramount. Along with perishables, flammable, and combustible materials, it's crucial to avoid packing valuable or sentimental items, such as jewellery or important documents, in boxes that will be transported with the rest of your belongings. Fragile items like glassware, artwork, and electronics should be packed with extra padding to prevent damage. Lastly, items that are illegal or prohibited by law, such as firearms or certain medications, should not be packed for the move.
It's advisable to book your moving services as far in advance as possible to ensure availability, especially during peak moving seasons. We recommend booking at least 2-4 weeks in advance to secure your preferred moving date and time. However, we understand that moving plans can change, so we strive to accommodate last-minute bookings whenever possible. Contact us to discuss your specific moving needs and schedule.
