Job ID: JAN2208302026 ( Residential Relocation ) - What This Move Involved
Get Movers Edmonton AB establishes itself as a top-rated moving company in the capital region by executing precise logistics for this two-bedroom home relocation. This residential move from Queen Alexandra to Forest Heights focused on efficient handling during typical January conditions. Moving trucks parked near the Old Strathcona Commercial Lot off Whyte Ave were dispatched at 08:15 AM to ensure movers reached the Queen Alexandra residence on 106 St NW on time for the 08:30 AM start.
The move progressed smoothly, navigating the snowy, tree-lined roads of Queen Alexandra, utilizing 76 Ave NW to connect eastward, and crossing the river valley via Connors Rd to enter the Forest Heights community. Before we even made it past the entryway of the Queen Alexandra home, the clients pointed out a tricky piece that needed attention right away — a tall wooden coat armoire wedged between the front closet and a narrow interior doorway. With almost no turning room, we wrapped the armoire completely, reinforced every edge, and used a slow lift‑and‑slide technique to guide it smoothly through the tight doorway without touching the walls. Despite the ambient temperature of -18°C, we activated our 'Thermal Shock Protocol,' using heavy-duty wool blankets inside the heated home before exiting to prevent antique varnish from cracking due to rapid thermal contraction.
Efficient Home Access
Planning for Queen Alexandra's mature residential streets allowed for smooth loading and immediate protection of household goods against snow and slush common in Edmonton winters.
Fragile Item Protection
In the dining nook, fragile glass dessert bowls with ultra-light rims were individually wrapped with cushioned sleeves and packed upright inside reinforced divider crates to ensure they stayed perfectly secure.
Logical Loading Order
Once items were padded and labeled, our crew loaded the truck in a balanced sequence, ensuring the armoire was set exactly where the clients wanted in the new Forest Heights home.
GPS Route Track - Job ID: JAN2208302026
GPS Track: Utilizing 76 Ave NW and Connors Rd to ensure safe heavy-truck transit across the river valley on ploughed priority routes during winter conditions.

Winter Logistics
Our crew planned around the bitter cold common in Edmonton's January, ensuring the truck was positioned to minimize door-open time at 106 St NW to protect the client's home heating.

What Our Client Said About This Move
"These guys are great. My partner and I have used Getmovers three times in the past year and they’ve been solid every single time.They’re easy to reach before the move and actually helpful when chatting through the details. Planning is clear, expectations are set properly, and their time estimates have been spot-on for us. They also offer supplies for sale and bring them out ahead of the move, which saved us a last-minute scramble. On moving day around the Oliver area, they showed up with everything needed like blankets, plastic wrap, and wardrobe boxes.The movers work fast but stay careful, and somehow manage to keep things light with jokes and good energy even while hauling heavy stuff. Friendly, efficient, and consistent, which is why we keep calling them back."
