John Hofman July 2015 

Our move went extremely well.  The loading and unloading of our furniture and boxes went very professional and fast.  Thank you

 

Ken Ainslie.  Local Moving Vancouver Island. 2015

Roger, the boxes are all gone and thank you for the reimbursement.  I think Marg and I (move wise) should be good for another two or more years but I will continue to “talk up” Parker Relocation!!  I don’t know what the “Group” stands for in your company name; I think it should be Parker Relocation Specialists!  The word “Specialists” is what your company is all about.

 

Lynn and Robin Browne:  Vancouver Island to White Rock. 2015

Just a note to say how impressed we were with your entire team.  You moved us in April and it was amazing to see your hard working people.  Will highly recommend you to the next person I know moving.

 

Janice and Ken Muscroft. Local Moving Vancouver Island: 2015

We would like to take this opportunity to Thank You and your moving team. 

Michael was prompt and answered all our questions when he came out to do the quote. Your moving team, Karl, Darin and Tyler were very courteous and helpful.  The truck arrived on time and they went out of their way to make sure everything was done to our satisfaction.  Very much appreciated.  We will definitely recommend your company and your team.

 

Karen Bergen; Bowser, BC to Nelson, BC and shipping a piano to Calgary. 2015

Thank you Roger, of the long list of stressful situations that arise when selling a house and moving – dealing with you, your professionalism and that of your moving crews was the least stressful and filled with ease.  You and your crew made it a dream instead of a nightmare.

Hi Teresa,  Thank you for arranging my move to Alberta. Everything went well. Your estimate was extremely accurate even after I had made changes to the list of items I wanted to move.  Thank you to Joyce also for answering my questions and dealing with other related duties regarding my move.  I would also like to pass on to you and the powers that be that the movers Ben and Jesse who packed my belongings into a container for my move to Red Deer were very polite, courteous, and friendly and carried out their duties efficiently.  The movers in Alberta were also punctual friendly and efficient.  I would not hesitate to recommend United Van Lines to anyone. Thanks again.  Penelope

 

Irene Kinnee: Hi just a quick note to let you know the move went great, two very considerate men that did an incredible job. They were jolly and very, very good I would recommend them to everybody. It all fit in the space we cleared. Everything is in boxes and the bed stuff is protected in plastic.

Local Moving in Duncan: Ron and Betty Hoggan. January 2015.  We are writing to express our gratitude for the excellent moving services your company provided. Beginning with the sales lady Teresa, who contacted us shortly after our home was listed, to Joyce in the office, who provided us packing materials and helpful suggestions, to John who drove your truck, and Brandon and Kyle who worked with him, each and all of these people provided us with a trouble-free, worry-free moving experience. We are grateful for your hard work and professional services. I (Ron) spent a total of about 11 years in the moving business, in Calgary, operating an independent moving company, as a broker for an Allied agent and as an employee of a United Van Lines agent (Bekins) so I feel qualified to judge the competence and effort expended on our behalf. My wife Betty enjoyed the good humor and banter carried on by the whole crew. In all, we are very grateful for the work you provided and we won't hesitate to recommend your services to anyone who is moving their household.

 

Local Nanaimo Move: Jan Lamont.   I would like to add another positive note to your testimonial page about your moving team. We were very impressed with the packing and moving that your team performed for us in Nanaimo, in October 2014. Our goods had to be moved from our home which had a 30 degree driveway (very STEEP) and it was pouring down rain all day. The movers, Karl , Kurt and another pleasant young man moved our goods to our new home without complaint . Everything was well packed and dry on arrival. I heartily recommend them.

Well Done Duncan Moving & Storage!  Hi Teresa, Wow, my move went just like clockwork.  I thought the price was fantastic and everyone involved, from yourself to the office staff, to the moving fellows were so professional and friendly and on time.  I certainly won’t hesitate to recommend your company to anyone that asks.  As a matter of fact, I already have given one recommendation to a friend of mine who may be moving from the interior to Duncan.  Thank you to all.  Cheers,  Neva Quast

Moving from Richmond BC to Nanaimo. Elaine Barnes and Graham Clowes, January 2014.

Good Morning, Michael: This is an unofficial, but very heart-felt "thank you" to you, Peggy, and the crews who did our move.
Harry, Ansley and Cal, in Richmond, were nothing short of terrific, cheerful, good - humoured, kind and pleasant. Bless Cal; he almost packed garbage!!  On the Nanaimo end, again with Harry, and crew Denis and Phil??, we had a similar experience.  This time, however, the boxes for the most part, had to go up 12 - 14 stairs, and some of them were quite heavy!!  These guys also went out of their way to put things in place for us.  Graham and I can't say enough good things about Minute Men Moving.
Does Nanaimo BBB take comments such as mine?   Many thanks again for making what could have been a very stressful day a  better than expected one.
 

Moving from Nanaimo to Victoria.  Mr. and Mrs. Bruce Light, November 2013

I dropped by your office just to say thank you and to say how pleased we were with your moving services; the coordination and the crews that did our moves.  It was a very complicated move in three stages, first to a temporary home and to storage and then consolidation from both locations to our final home. Everything went well without any problems and we would recommend your services.

 

Local Moving in Duncan. Garry & Sheila Kerr Duncan, BC. NOVEMBER 2013

I just wanted to tell you that our move went absolutely perfect.  Right from the time Teresa came out and gave us a quote to when the move was finished today.  Joyce was more than pleasant to deal with on the many occasions I was into your office to get boxes, etc.

The crew that did the load and unload were awesome,  a very hard working bunch of guys.  Simply stated, Mike and his crew of Brandon, Ryan, Tyler and Bubba were exceptional.  They did their jobs in record time and were very pleasant to deal with.  Your company is very fortunate to have such great employee's. 
Thank you again for making our move very pleasant.  I have moved 9 times in the last 31 years and this move was, without question, the best.

Our thanks and regards Annette & Rod

 

Moving from Nanaimo to Burnaby.  On the weekend of Sept 4th your company moved my mom from Nanaimo to Burnaby.

We had 4 of your guys working with us, Mike and Tyler in Nanaimo, and Len and Mitch in Burnaby. They were so patient and kind and helpful.  When Mike and Tyler loaded the tuck in Nanaimo, they very professionally loaded it in 3 sections for the 3 stops in Vancouver. Mike cleverly separated the load using the beds.  On this end, the guys were very sensitive to my mom and were especially helpful at my sister's, their last stop.  They went the extra mile that is for sure.  Also, on the 2 occasions I called into your office, the lady who answered the phone, was very kind, helpful and cheerful.  Not to mention that you were great too when you came to assess our load - which grew a little (sorry about that, but so many memories). Anyway, thank you so very much.  I am sure you are very proud of your team, and so you should be.  Kindest Regards, Karen Bevan-Pritchard and Chris Ring and Family

 

Moving from Cedar to Ladysmith.  Tim and Helen Hornet: Cedar to Ladysmith, May 2013.

My wife and I would just like to Thank you and your great crews for the efficient and cheerful way our recent local move was carried out. Kudos to Harry, Bill Jessie for the move out and John, Sean and Ryan for the move in.  Keep up the great work and good luck in your new location.



Local Moving Nanaimo.  David & Susan Morrison – Nanaimo, April 2013. On April 6, 2013, we moved a short distance from two locations to a house in Nanaimo, using Minute Men for the second time in six years.  As last time, the guys were awesome.  On this occasion we were not only treated to an exhibition of how to move a lot of stuff, including some very heavy and awkward items, with maximum efficiency and speed, but also a veritable running floor show from the highly entertaining three-man crew!  John, Brandon and Travis, from Duncan, regaled us with funny anecdotes and quips as they moved our possessions into the new house, but on what is such a stressful day for anyone it cannot be overstated enough just how important this was in keeping the mood light and fun.  In addition to this we felt throughout that nothing was too much trouble, and not once did we hear a moan about the workload.  In short, these guys were a great team and exactly what Minute Men’s deserved high reputation is built on.

​

Moving to Storage in Nanaimo. Ellie Lewis: April 2013.

I would like to thank all of you at Minute Men for the Fantastic Service!!!!  It was such a relief to have the guys come and make everything go so smoothly.  We had stuff going in 3 directions; they dealt with it with such professionalism and with such a wonderful sense of humor which made it fun instead of a chore.  Thanks again for the wonderful service.

​

Moving from Nanaimo to Ontario.  Richard Clark: April 2013.

Just a note following our loading date yesterday. Everything went well .I was impressed by the fellows that were loading and wrapping Jeramy and Harry. They were great!!  And thank you Michael for ordering the good weather for the load . It was much appreciated.



Moving from Duncan to Sheridan Lake. Michael and Wendy Lebek:  April 2013.  

We would like to take a minute to tell you just how wonderful we found your crew in moving us. Such a long move, but seamless, particularly because of our driver, Mark, who is worth his weight in gold. We had 25 years of memories accumulated in our home,  and we were worried about how it would all be transported. We need not have worried. Mark was careful and organized, and he did it all with a smile and a whistle while he worked. He made the long trip through the Fraser Canyon and arrived at our door at 7 am. The furniture and boxes were carefully placed where requested and although we had many mirrors, pictures, dishes, etc. not a thing was damaged or broken.  We found everyone from beginning to end of this experience to be courteous and professional. We would highly recommend Nanaimo Minute Men to anyone considering a move.
 

Moving from Duncan to Ucluelet.  Susan Good - Blackford: April 2013

I want to thank everyone at Duncan Moving and Storage for our very successful move.  Our crew supervised by Carl was excellent.  Not only were they polite and courteous, but so helpful. Not once did I hear a complaint or negative comment from anyone.  They arrived promptly, and all our furniture was wrapped and protected from damage before loading.  The next morning they arrived promptly at 9 AM. and everything went very smoothly  they even took the time to assemble the beds and moved some furniture that was in the wrong location again without complaint. Most importantly, for the first time in my moving experience, everything arrived without any damage.  Even though I did my own packing they were very careful with the boxes I had marked fragile.  I would highly recommend this company for a professional moving experience.
