Kris K2025-02-18Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I wanted to hire a Canadian company for my move from Hillsboro, OR to Canada in 2020 and I came across Salmon's Transfer LTD. I spoke to one of their team members, had a pretty good idea of how they work, fees, customs clearance and storage policies and procedures on Canadian side and I decided to move forward with them. I had two face-time phone calls with Anne Brand (International Move Manager) to see the place, volume of the items they will need to pack and type of boxes their team will need for packing. Those calls really helped both Salmon's and myself in order to understand which items are not allowed in the truck due to government regulations. On the US side, they have partnered with Suddath movers and storage company. Their team came over to our place in Hillsboro and it took a team of 3 members about 6-7 hours and they did meticulous job in packing each and every single item in our one-bedroom apartment. Every item was packed with thick and good quality paper, labeled very well. A final copy was handed to us as well at the end of the packing for all the items loaded into their truck. Once the truck was loaded, it was handed over to Salmon's Transfer LTD on the Canadian side who cleared the customs at the POE on my behalf as I filled and signed a form that gives them authority to clear any of my items which went smooth and no items were touched at all. Salmon's Transfer did a phenomenal job in storing all of our items at their temperature controlled storage facility in Richmond, BC. All my items were stored for 15 months while I was still in the states. Once I moved to Calgary, scheduled a delivery date with Anne Brand to my 3 bedroom town-home and was easy to do that part and very prompt as well. On the day of the delivery, two members unloaded all my items inside the town-home, they unwrapped all of items one by one, assembled our IKEA bed as well which is not easy to assemble once you disassemble them. They removed all the wrappers and loaded them back into the truck, not leaving any trash behind. Both the team members (can't recall their names) were very professional, took their own time to unload without rushing and placed the items wherever they were told to leave. Out of all the items, just a single coffee cup had a small crack and chipped while it was unwrapped and that's not to complain about, rather to stay that Salmon's Transfer LTD stored our items in a meticulous way. A copy of all the paperwork done was handed to me, communication from the first stage till final delivery point was very professional and on-par. I had a single point of contact who was Anne Brand for any issues or inquiries. I'd strongly recommend anyone to hire them for US-Canada move.

The movers were prompt, friendly and hard-working. Nothing was damaged. We plan to hire Salmon's again for our next move. Richard Barr2025-02-07Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I have used Salmon's several times for local moves. They arrive on time, work fast and always do a professional job at a reasonable price. I'll use them for my next move. Robin Sherman2025-02-04Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Their quote was fair, then arrived on time! They came, they worked hard, competed the job, and they left. No issue, very helpful team of workers, I do recommend them. Jenny De Jong2025-02-03Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Always a pleasure working with the Salmon's team. They are professional, on time and efficient. Highly recommend! sheri adams2025-01-30Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Salmon’s Moving & Storage are the best!! Right from the beginning, they were professional, kind, courteous and knowledgeable. They provided me with a detailed quote, in a timely manner, and allowed me to pester them with all sorts of questions (and they took the time to answer every single one). On “Moving Day”, everyone arrived promptly and worked so hard to make sure my items were packed and moved with care. Some bigger furniture items needed to be disassembled/wrapped and reassembled at my new home. Salmon’s movers were quick, safe and thoughtful (not only of my items and home, but also of my neighbours - new and old). I highly recommend Salmon’s - don’t even think twice about it - just call them!! joanne Zamora2025-01-29Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Amazing work. Very friendly and accommodating service. Great communication. Tanya Morin2025-01-28Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We had a great experience with our cross country move from VAN ISL to Ottawa. Within our household goods that shipped with Salmon’s moving truck we had over 700 Lbs of stained glass and not a single piece was broken! Although the weather was not in our favour (end of November) Salmon’s moving got it to our new destination safe and sound. Will use them again if the need ever comes up. T2025-01-28Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. The guys were friendly and professional. They got the job done with positive attitude. Thank you for the service during this stressful time of moving!
