Tips for a smooth move
- Tourist Traffic: In July/August, the Channel Parkway and Lakeshore Drive are gridlocked. We highly recommend booking movers for mid-week to avoid the weekend tourist crush.
- Naramata Access: Moving to the Bench? Winding winery roads and long driveways often prohibit 53-foot trailers. A 'shuttle service' is almost always required for these estates.
- The Heat Factor: The South Okanagan is Canada's desert. Summer moves can hit 40°C. Crews start early (7 AM) to beat the heat—be ready for them.
- Elevator Bookings: Moving into a condo on Lakeshore or near the SOEC? You must book the elevator weeks in advance, especially during the busy summer turnover.
Frequently Asked Questions

Usually, yes. Moves from the Lower Mainland to the South Okanagan are billed as long-distance (based on weight/volume) rather than hourly. This protects you from traffic delays on the Coquihalla.
Absolutely. Climate-controlled trucks are available for wine collections, and our partners have the skid boards and manpower required for grand pianos and hot tubs.
It is common here. Please mention 'steep access' or 'winding driveway' in your quote request. We will plan for a shuttle truck to ferry your items from the road to your door.
Yes. With so many new developments in Sendero Canyon and Skaha Hills, storage-in-transit is a very popular service we offer while you wait for possession.
