We called Mark at Affordable Movers to see if they could accommodate a rush move from PEI to Halifax (1 weeks notice). Not only did they respond quickly, but they exceeded our expectations both on the day of the move in PEI and the eventual delivery in Halifax. The teams were efficient, friendly and professional. I would highly recommend them for any of your moving needs.

Report
I recently moved from Summerside to Stratford. As someone recently widowed after 45 years of marriage I had a lot of stuff to deal with single handedly. The team from Affordable movers came in and were all so helpful and pleasant. I really felt I had a whole team on my side working for me. They made what I thought was going to be a very challenging and stressful experience into a very easy process. I would highly recommend this company to anyone.
