The moving and storage industry in British Columbia and Alberta is seeing different trends in 2025. In BC, softer housing activity has slowed some residential moves, while Alberta’s strong population growth keeps moving trucks and storage units busy.

Storage demand remains steady, with operators focusing on smart pricing and high occupancy. For moving companies, it’s all about efficiency, customer service, and offering flexible options like bundled moving + storage.

Challenges include high costs and fewer home sales in BC, but opportunities are strong in Alberta’s growth corridors. For customers, that means more choice — and for companies, a chance to sharpen service and capture new markets.
