    Vancouver Island Moving Tips and Local Planning Notes



  • The "Island Access" Factor: Properties on Vancouver Island, especially rural or waterfront ones, often have unique access challenges like steep driveways, winding roads, or require ferry travel. Always mention specific access details when booking.


  • Ferry & Logistics: For moves involving ferry travel to or from the mainland, booking in advance is crucial. Also consider island-specific traffic patterns and seasonal demand.


  • Varied Terrain & Weather: Be prepared for diverse terrain, from urban streets to unpaved rural roads. Island weather can also change quickly, so protection for items against rain is important.
