That is what our full packing service delivers. You spend your time on the things only you can do, such as work, family, utilities and saying goodbye to the neighbourhood, while our packers handle the rest.

Full packing is combined with your move and included in one guaranteed flat-fee price.

How full packing works

Scheduling. Packing is scheduled one to three days before your move, depending on home size.
Setting aside. You set aside items you will keep with you: documents, medication, jewellery, chargers and an essentials kit.
Packing. Our packers work room by room, starting with rooms you use least.
Labelling. Each box gets a room label and a short contents description.
Final check. Packers walk through with you to confirm everything is packed.
Moving day. The crew loads the packed boxes and furniture.

The kitchen: the hardest room

Kitchens contain the most items and the most fragile ones. Our packers wrap plates individually and stand them on edge in dish boxes, pack glasses in divided cartons, nest pots and pans, wrap knives safely and pack small appliances in padded boxes. Pantry items are packed upright, with open containers sealed. A typical kitchen can take a family a full day or more to pack, while our packers complete it efficiently and safely.

How long does full packing take?

The time depends on the size of the home and the amount of belongings. A studio or one-bedroom apartment can often be packed in a few hours. A two or three-bedroom apartment may take most of a day. A large family house can take one to three days with a team of packers. Your coordinator will plan the right team size so packing is finished before moving day.

Full packing plus unpacking

For the ultimate easy move, combine full packing with our unpacking service. We pack everything at your old home, move it and unpack it at your new home, placing items in cupboards and closets and taking away the empty boxes. You simply tell us where things go.

Who chooses full packing?

Busy professionals who cannot take days off to pack. Families with young children who need to keep routines going. Seniors downsizing after many years in one home. Corporate transferees whose employer covers the move. Anyone moving long distance, where good packing is essential. And anyone who simply does not want to spend weeks surrounded by boxes.

Preparing for full packing

Set aside essentials, documents and valuables you will carry yourself.
Tell your coordinator about anything that should not be packed.
Dispose of items you do not want to move before packing day.
Empty and defrost the fridge the day before the move.
Remove hazardous items such as propane, paint and cleaning chemicals.
Make sure packers have access to every room, closet and storage area.

Items we cannot pack

For safety reasons, we cannot pack or transport hazardous materials such as propane, gasoline, paint thinners, fireworks, ammunition and corrosive chemicals. We also recommend you keep cash, jewellery, important documents, medication and irreplaceable personal items with you.

A day with our packers

On packing day, the team lead starts with a quick walkthrough with you. You point out anything that should not be packed, fragile pieces that need extra care and the items you have set aside. The team then splits up: usually one packer starts in the kitchen, the most time-consuming room, while others work through bedrooms, closets and living areas. Boxes are built, filled, sealed and labelled as they go, and packed boxes are stacked neatly near the door or in a central room so the moving crew can load them quickly. Throughout the day, packers check in with you before packing anything unusual. Before leaving, the team lead walks through each room with you to confirm cupboards, closets and storage spaces are empty.

Living in a packed home

Many customers worry about living among boxes. We schedule packing as close to moving day as possible and leave you what you need for the final night: a few plates and cups, toiletries, a change of clothes, bedding, chargers and medication. We suggest you keep these in a clearly marked box or suitcase that travels with you, so you can unpack the essentials first at your new home without searching.

Labels that make unpacking easy

Every box packed by our team is labelled with the room it belongs in at the new home, a short description of its contents and fragile markings where needed. Boxes for the kitchen, bathroom and children’s rooms can be marked “open first” so you can set up the most important rooms quickly. If you want a specific labelling system, such as colour codes per room or numbered boxes with an inventory list, tell your coordinator and we will follow it.

Full packing for long-distance moves

For moves from Montreal to Quebec City, Ottawa, Toronto or across Canada, full packing is strongly recommended. Professional packing reduces damage on long trips, and boxes packed to a consistent standard load more tightly and safely in the truck. Fragile and valuable items can travel in custom crates, and everything is labelled for quick delivery at the other end.

Full packing for corporate relocations

When employers cover relocation costs, full packing is often included. It lets employees focus on their new role rather than spending evenings packing. We provide documentation for your employer or relocation company and coordinate the packing schedule around the employee’s work. See corporate relocation.
