Low wages, no benefits or security, and brutally hard work make working for a moving company a last choice career. Employee movers are often unhappy and unskilled transient workers with a poor attitude. A mover that truly cares is often flaunted in advertising, but in reality, they are as rare as a unicorn.
Owner Operator Movers love their work because they make great money and are their own bosses. They get to choose their helpers, who are often good friends or family and the entire team takes pride in their work. Owner Operators are happy movers, rarely seen in other moving companies.
OO movers began as local moving company in Metro Vancouver more than 36 years ago and has grown to incorporate movers all around Western Canada. Our Victoria moving team services the Southern tip of Vancouver Island, as far North as Cowichan and Duncan. Whether you are moving from Downtown Victoria or from Esquimalt, Saanich, or Oak Bay, we can book you a top tier mover. Most of our moves are in the core Esquimalt, Saanich, Victoria, and Oak Bay areas, but our Victoria Owner Operator Movers also make the trip North to Swartz Bay, Sidney, and North Saanich.

Moving within BC doesn’t have to be expensive. Most moving companies charge expensive long distance rates for moves between cities in BC. Our local Owner Operator Movers Victoria team can help you move anywhere in BC at cheap local moving rates. We don’t need to run huge, multi-million dollar trucks and don’t need to charge by the pound.
If you are moving from Victoria to Whistler, the most efficient system is to load the moving truck the night before the actual move. Then we can get an early start the next morning, push through Vancouver, finish your move, and return home to Victoria the same day. This saves you from paying overnight move rates and lets us sleep in our own beds.

Cross Canada movers are almost all experienced movers that have worked their way up to owning and operating their own trucks. Most long distance movers are Owner Operators but only a few of them belong to our organization, OO movers. Many of the rest haul for the big van lines who charge you a lot and keep most of the money for themselves. Our mission is to connect the consumer direct as possible to the men who actually do the work and build a positive relationship where the client saves money and the mover makes more. That sounds impossible, but it doesn’t need to be if you take the big boss man or brand name out of the picture.
