    Commercial Drive Moving Tips and Local Planning Notes



  • The "Stair" Factor: Many homes and apartments in Commercial Drive, especially character homes and multi-story walk-ups, have multiple levels or compact entries with stairs. Always mention the number of flights when booking.


  • Parking Considerations: Parking on Commercial Drive can be very limited. Consider contacting the City of Vancouver for temporary "No Parking" signs, especially on narrower residential streets or near busy commercial sections.


  • Tight Turns: Many older homes and apartment buildings in Commercial Drive have unique layouts with narrow hallways, compact doorways, or tight staircase turns. Measure your doorways and ensure larger furniture can pass or be disassembled/reassembled by professionals.

Get Movers Vancouver BC applies these same Commercial Drive planning steps—multiple levels, access timing, and parking coordination—backed by insured moves, “Guaranteed Protection” policy, written estimates, transparent hourly pricing, and Not-to-Exceed options (when eligible).
