In their own words
We had an extremely disappointing experience with this moving company. We were quoted that the move would take approximately five hours, and the crew confirmed that estimate when they arrived. Instead, the move took seven hours, resulting in unexpected additional charges. The professionalism of the crew was also disappointing. When they arrived at our new home, the driver spent about 30 minutes trying to back the truck into position while the other mover yelled profanities at him through the window.
Terrible Experience. First they base their quote off the information you give them about what you have to move. I would recommend making them come out and go through your house themselves (more on this later) so that every little item gets listed. They showed up with 6 people, we were sending some items to storage and some to our new place. Lots of standing around. We had packed some stuff our selves and some they were asked to pack. They just threw a lot of stuff in different boxes or into other existing items.
Moved from calgary to Vancouver. They guaranteed our stuff to fit on one truck. On the day of moving they couldn’t fit everything so had to bring a second truck the next day to take the rest of the stuff. Our stuff was then unloaded into storage containers (unknown to us) and then reloaded onto trucks to Vancouver so it changed hands many times. Mysteriously, two big tool bags containing expensive drills/tools never made it to Vancouver. I’ve emailed many times and called them with no response 3 weeks out.
Do not use this company. Completely useless when moving my elderly mother from one condo to another in Calgary on August 23rd. Unprofessional, careless, painfully slow, and their management did not respond AT ALL when complaints were made during the actual moving process. We had agreed in advance that they would pack her kitchen but they showed up to the condo without a clue how to do this and didn’t bring ANY packing materials for crockery etc, just some cardboard boxes?

We had a contract with Two Burley Men coordinated with Derek! We have used them for long haul move with storage, so loading and unloading 4 times and not one thing was damaged, not even a scratch on anything. Why, because EVERYTHING was blanketed and shrink wrapped and loaded properly! However, moving day came and we were greeted by Two small men with big hearts! Come to find out the two companies were now one! The three young lads were pleasant enough but definately NOT trained in long haul moving.
Hi June, are you able to send me an email at [email removed] to discuss your concerns?
DO NOT USE damaged basically all of our items. DISCLAIMER you get 0.60c per pound of anything damaged.. Scratched flooring at pick up and delivery address. Didn’t wear shoe protection. Rapidly moved and loaded items running up and down stairs in shoes. Did not wrap any items until asked to do so. New couch was filthy, dents in legs. They damaged the sliders and when it was delivered it scratched the flooring. Chipped glass on all corners of patio table. Outdoor furniture was filthy.
My name is Inder Roopra, I just used Two Small Men with Big Hearts for their services - A REAL DISAPPOINTMENT! I moved my stuff within Winnipeg area and got the quotation of around $2200 but on the move-out day, 2 trucks came in and assured me the process will be smooth and not charged extra! To my surprise, I have been charged over $4000!! Also, I have more than 20 items, bed furniture corners, mirrors corners, glass items, vases broken/damaged badly!!!!
We set a high standard for ourselves and are truly sorry to hear that standard was not met in your interaction with our business. please reach out to [email removed]
I booked movers June 10th for a July 3rd move. They were supposed to arrive at 9am. At 9:30 they call me to say they aren’t coming. No offer of a solution just that they aren’t coming. Do not reply on them for you move if you have to be out by a certain time, apparently they can just not show up!

In their own words
The whole experience was wonderful, smooth and successful. Both the back end and front end staff were up front, helpful and courteous. Jay and Lindsay were happy to book and answer my many phone calls and Eric and London worked very hard to carefully move everything in a time efficient way. When they didn't have enough room to park out front if the house and it would have taken more time to move vehicles, they quickly problem solved to load from the back alley.
Great service and arrived on time. The two movers were very friendly and helpful. They did a good job communicating and organizing my service.
Very attentive and communicative thoughout the quote and dispatch process, our movers Coulter and Nick were super friendly, attentive, careful, and amazing with helping us get items to donation and disposal. We used this company for our own move years ago and happy that they are still doing so well 5 years later.
Thanks for the awesome review Sylvia! We really appreciate it.
Troy was absolutely amazing I can’t believe what I was seeing this kid do. only thing I have to say is he can work on his temper seemed like little things got under his skin but other then that he was amazingggg. His crew was also amazing took them no time to unload my bsb
