Container Service & Flexible move

Container Service/Flexmove

When you move with Western Moving/United Van Lines you have the choice of shipping your household goods by van or container service.

This service is available on long distance moves over 700 miles and is available in most major centres across Canada.

Containers offer unique benefits:

  • Exclusive use option available: your own personal, Sanitized® container with your contents separate from other shipments
  • Less handling: perfect for short-term storage situations as we store your shipment in the container in which it was loaded. There is no extra unloading and loading and less risk of accidental damage to your contents.
  • Storage: up to 30 days at no additional cost and up to 90 days at very reasonable rates

Flexmove Self-Loaded Shipping Container Moves:

For "do-it-yourselfers," our flexmove service is perfect for you! We will provide you the same exclusive use as all our full service container moves, the only difference is that you load these containers yourself. This makes flexmove a much more budget-friendly approach to moving, while still entrusting United Van Lines to transport your belongings to your new home safely and on time.

There are many factors to consider when deciding whether to use traditional van transport, container service or our new Flexmove. It's important to take into account overall cost, benefits, transit times, availability and other factors. Every move is different from the next, so CALL NOW or REQUEST A QUOTE ONLINE and let us help you make the right decision for your situation.
