Flexible, Affordable, and Smart Moving Options for Every Budget
Ever tried moving that oversized couch through a narrow hallway? We get it! A DIY move can be tricky — but with Alberta Strong Movers, you don’t have to do everything yourself.
Our DIY and custom moving services are designed to fit your unique needs. Whether you need a moving truck, some extra hands, or help unpacking, we can create a plan that works for you — so you save money while staying in control.
What Is a DIY or Custom Move?
A DIY move (Do-It-Yourself move) is a custom moving option that lets you handle most of the work while hiring professionals for the parts you need help with.
Our team can assist with:
-
Loading and unloading your moving truck
-
Packing or unpacking fragile or bulky items (see our Packing Services)
-
Providing professional moving equipment like dollies, straps, and blankets
-
Transporting your items if you don’t have a truck
It’s perfect for folks who want control, flexibility, and cost savings while still having the peace of mind of professional support.
Who Is a DIY or Custom Move Perfect For?
DIY moves are ideal if you:
-
✅ Already have your boxes packed and furniture disassembled, but need a few extra hands
-
✅ Have friends or family to help but don’t have a truck
-
✅ Your helpers canceled at the last minute (hey, it happens!)
-
✅ Want to save money wherever possible
-
✅ Need a flexible, budget-friendly option
With Alberta Strong Movers, you can customize your move so it’s exactly what you need — no more, no less.
Tips for a Successful DIY Move in Alberta
1. Plan Ahead & Stay Organized
Use a moving checklist to map out every step. Start with our DIY Moving Checklist to make sure nothing slips through the cracks.
2. Declutter Before You Pack
Less stuff = less work. Sort through your belongings and donate or discard what you don’t need.
3. Book Your Truck Early
Moving trucks go fast, especially at the beginning or end of the month. Secure your truck in advance (request a Free Quote).
4. Pack Like a Pro
Protect fragile items with bubble wrap, moving blankets, and sturdy boxes. Need help? Check our Packing Services.
5. Don’t Be Afraid to Ask for Help
Even DIY movers can benefit from a professional touch. Our Furniture Assembly & Disassembly Services make moving large or heavy furniture safer and easier.
