Moving and Storage FAQs
Frequently Asked Moving Questions
Q: How Do I get An Estimate For Moving?
A: To estimate your move we encourage you to fill out our Online Estimate Form. Alternatively, you can give us a Call, or submit a video for a flexible quoting option. We will visit you to evaluate the amount of inventory and packing work needed. This visit is FREE of charge and is part of our total service package. We also offer new virtual video assessments, so you can record a video (with your cell phone) of your inventory and we can get you a quote based on that.
Q: How To Select The Right Mover?
A: Reputable movers should have an established place of business, license and insurance. It is not wise to use a mover who is new to the business.
They may not know what they’re doing, or even worse, they may be scammers.
You want a mover who has been in business for a while, and who knows the business. You should ask your mover to supply you with a few references. A satisfied customer is the best sales tool for a mover.
Q: Can Clothes And Other Items Be Left Inside The Furniture During The Move?
A: We recommend that all clothes and items be removed from inside the furniture, including desks, dressers, armoires, etc. This makes the furniture much lighter and easier to move. It also limits wear and tear to your furniture during the move.
Generally the only items of furniture that can be safely moved with items still in them are small light pieces of furniture containing very light belongings inside.
Be careful NOT to leave fragile items and anything that might spill or leak.
Q: Do I Tip The Movers?
Q: Do You Charge Extra For Moving Large Items Such As Pianos?
A: Ferguson Moving & Storage does not charge extra for moving pianos.
Piano moves and any other extraordinarily heavy furniture are all charged the same way that regular moves are charged.
We have professional piano movers with years of piano moving experience.
Q: What Happens If It Rains, Snows Or The Weather Is Bad?
A: We at Ferguson, will always honour our moving commitments regardless of weather. Unpredictable weather might slow down the job but weather is unavoidable.
If your move occurs on a day where the weather is acting up our movers will take precautions to protect floors and carpeting from excess dirt and soil.
Q: Do The Movers Supply Cartons?
A: If you have chosen to pack your own belongings and have hired us just to move you, there is a chance that some items still need to be packed.
Most drivers carry a small assortment of boxes and materials to pack the contents of your home. However, these boxes are not free. Ferguson Moving & Storage can provide all the supplies you need. However, if you want to pack your belongings before the move, you can order some packing materials here.
We do not recommend getting boxes from your local liquor/grocery store. These boxes are often flimsy and costs more in labour to move them because the movers need to make more trips back and forth to the truck.
Always use double corrugated boxes, not single. The stronger your boxes, the better.
Q: When Is The Best Time To Move?
A: If there is a choice, avoid the summer, beginning or end of the month or winter holidays. The heaviest demands are placed on vans, equipment and personnel during these periods. However, you should move when it’s most convenient for you. Factors involved in the decision may include:
- Whether the move must be made immediately.
- Transferring children during the school term.
- Separation of the family while the move is under way.
If the move can be scheduled for a time when vans and trained personnel are most readily available, we’ll be better equipped to meet your preferred delivery schedule.
Q: Can I Pack My China, Glass & Crystal?
A: Most people prefer to have their household possessions professionally packed by a moving company. However, if you decide to pack these items yourself, remember the basic principles of good packing, such as wrapping the items individually to provide plenty of cushioning.
Be sure to select a sturdy container with a lid. Place a layer of crushed paper on the bottom of the carton as a cushion. Wrap each item individually with a soft material to provide a safe, protective “padded nest.” Pack the heaviest items on the bottom, empty ones next, filling in empty spaces with crushed paper. Place plates on edge and glassware on rims for maximum protection.
Mark the carton “Fragile” and list the contents on the outside. Be sure to seal the carton with tape. Cartons, paper, tape and other packing materials may be purchased here for a very modest cost.

Q: How And When Should I Pay?
A: Tariff provisions require that all charges be paid before your shipment is unloaded at destination (unless prior arrangements have been made for later billing).
Payment for your move can be made by one of the following methods: Cash Visa, Mastercard or Certified Cheque may be used.
Q: When Should I Call A Moving Company?
A: The earlier, the better. It’s wise to give your moving company 4 to 6 weeks notice, if possible. The more lead time you can give, the more likely we will be able to meet your delivery schedule.
You should discuss your specific pickup and delivery requirements with your Move Manager, who can advise you of the types and costs of services available.
Q: What Items Are Not Allowed To Move? Hazardous Goods
A: Before your possessions are packed and loaded, it is important that you understand which items cannot be shipped because they represent a hazard or are perishable.
Listed below are some common non-allowable items that you will need to address prior to your pack and load dates:
Hazardous Materials are items that are flammable, corrosive or explosive. These are non-transportable items.
Hazardous materials can include, but are not limited to, explosives, compressed gases, flammable liquids and solids, oxidizers, poisons, corrosives and radioactive materials.
Common examples of hazardous materials include:
- Gasoline
- Propane Cylinders
- Paints and Paint Thinners
- Lighter fluid
- Nail Polish Remover
- Fireworks
- Oxygen Bottles
- Automotive Repair and Maintenance Chemicals and Solvents
- Radio-Pharmaceuticals
- Matches
Miscellaneous items that are non-transportable include:
- Firearms
- Perishable Food and Food Stored in Glass Jars and Containers
- Prescription Drugs (specifically, those that may be needed immediately and should be within reach)
Personal or Irreplaceable Belongings. Bring these items with you in your car or carry them on your persons during the move.
- Cash
- Collections (stamp collections, coin collections, cards, etc.)
- Family Photos
- Important Personal Papers (i.e., deeds, wills, passport, birth certificates, etc.)
- Negotiable Papers (i.e., bonds, stocks, certificates)
- Jewelry
- Moving Documents (bill of lading, rights and responsibilities, etc.)
Before packing up your home, separate these non-transportable items from the rest of your household goods to be packed. Not only are these items dangerous to your movers and their safety, but they are also items that are easily purchased at your new location. For those high-value or personal items, these often cannot be replaced at all, so it’s important to keep these items with you.
Use these tips on non-transportable items and benefit from a safe, more organized move.
