• Normal wear and tear
• Pre-existing damage

Service Execution

Time Estimates

While we strive to adhere to scheduled times, moving times are estimates and not guarantees. Various factors including traffic, weather, and move complexity may affect actual service times.

Service Refusal

We reserve the right to refuse service if:

• Conditions present safety hazards to our crew
• The move involves illegal items
• The customer is verbally or physically abusive to staff
• The actual items to be moved differ substantially from what was disclosed during estimation

Dispute Resolution

Communication

We encourage customers to communicate any concerns directly with their move coordinator or our customer service team as soon as they arise.

Mediation

If a dispute cannot be resolved through direct communication, both parties agree to attempt resolution through mediation before pursuing legal action.

Governing Law

These Terms shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of BRITISH COLUMBIA/CANADA, without regard to its conflict of law provisions.

Modifications to Terms

We reserve the right to modify these Terms at any time. Changes will be effective upon posting to our website or direct notification to customers with active service agreements.

Severability

If any provision of these Terms is found to be unenforceable or invalid, that provision will be limited or eliminated to the minimum extent necessary so that the Terms will otherwise remain in full force and effect.
