Moving in Tsawwassen: what to know
Tsawwassen sits at the southwest tip of Delta, near Boundary Bay and the BC Ferries terminal. In the 2021 Census, Statistics Canada's Tsawwassen population centre had about 24,000 people in 9,970 homes: 60% were single-detached houses and 25% low-rise apartments, and 24% of households rented.
Part of Tsawwassen is City of Delta and part is Tsawwassen First Nation lands, where newer neighbourhoods have been filling in: on TFN lands, about a third of residents (730 of 2,120) had moved in the year before the Census. Many Tsawwassen moves are downsizing moves out of long-held family homes, while the newer builds draw people in.

Homes and buildings: moving day in Tsawwassen
Long-held family homes. Downsizing moves are common here. Homes near the water can have long driveways or tight access, so tell us how far the door is from where a truck can stop. We move what's going and can haul away what isn't in the same booking.
Newer builds and apartments. On TFN lands, some apartment buildings have signed loading zones for large trucks and vans by the entrance. In a strata, book the elevator and send us the window.

What every Tsawwassen move includes
- Moving blankets and plastic wrap for furniture, dollies and straps for heavy pieces, and floor protection.
- Beds, tables and other furniture taken apart where needed and put back together at the new place.
- A crew sized to your home: usually 2 movers for a studio or one-bedroom, 3 for two or three bedrooms, and 4 for larger homes.
- No travel fee, and no extra charge for stairs, a long carry or a building without an elevator.
- Moves 7 days a week. A few days' notice is usually enough.
- Boxes and supplies for sale: cardboard and wardrobe boxes, mattress and TV covers, tape, packing paper and bubble wrap.
- Storage if there's a gap between moving out and moving in.
- Anything you're not taking hauled away in the same booking.
As a rough guide, a one-bedroom move takes 3 to 4 hours, a two-bedroom 4 to 6 hours and a three-bedroom 6 to 9 hours. If you need to cancel a booked move, the deposit isn't refunded, but it can be moved to a new date.
Condo moves: you book the elevator and loading bay with your building. If your strata charges a fee for the move, BC's Strata Property Regulation allows a fee for using common property only when it is reasonable and set out in a bylaw or a ratified rule (section 6.9, checked 1 October 2026).
Parking the moving truck in Tsawwassen
On Tsawwassen First Nation lands, TFN's parking plan puts some streets on four-hour parking, 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. on weekdays, and makes some smaller streets No Parking on the side without parking bays. The aim is to stop spillover parking from high-density developments and ferry passengers and keep two-way traffic moving. Next to apartment buildings, custom signs set aside space for emergency vehicles, passenger pick-up and small deliveries, garbage pick-up, and a loading zone for vehicles including large trucks and vans; use that loading zone where your building has one.
On City of Delta streets, Delta's rules apply. If you're putting a moving or storage container on the road, ask Delta Engineering (604-946-3260) about a Highway Use Permit first.
Before moving day in Tsawwassen
- Tell us whether you're on City of Delta streets or Tsawwassen First Nation lands; the rules differ.
- In a TFN apartment building, check whether there's a signed loading zone by the entrance, and tell us.
- Near the water, tell us how long the driveway is and how tight the access.
- Clearing out first? Leasehold residents on TFN lands can apply for TFN's Large Item Pick-Up Pilot (May 1, 2026 to March 31, 2027): up to eight items per household, no fees. On City streets, Delta's program takes up to four items a year through Remple Disposal, (604) 835-1792.
- Downsizing? Decide what's coming before moving day; we can haul away the rest in the same booking.
Moving to or from Tsawwassen
For moves toward Richmond and Vancouver, we plan around George Massey Tunnel traffic; timing affects how long an hourly move takes, not the price. Ladner and North Delta are short drives (movers in Ladner, movers in Delta). Local moves are priced by the size of the home, as the table above shows, with no travel fee.
We also move households within BC and to Alberta. Long-distance moves within BC currently run $2,000 to $9,000, and moves to Alberta $3,000 to $10,000, depending on the size of the home and the distance.
