BHE Moving: Truly Affordable Moving Without Compromising on Quality
At BHE Moving, located at 5525 Trent Ave, Montreal, QC H4W 2B8, we reject the notion that affordability means compromising on service quality. Our affordable moving service is designed for those looking to relocate without breaking the bank, while still benefiting from the same guarantees of excellence as our premium clients: qualified team, state-of-the-art equipment, comprehensive insurance, and on-time delivery.
No unpleasant surprises here. Describe your project in detail (volume, access, floors, items), and we’ll provide you with a transparent, firm, and no-surprise quote. No surprises, no unexpected extra fees. Absolute transparency, unwavering integrity, formidable efficiency: that’s our promise.
When the “Cheap” Option Applies (and When It Doesn’t)
Our affordable service perfectly covers:
- standard residential moving (studio, 1-bedroom, 2-bedroom)
- light commercial moving (small office, shop)
- local or short-distance moving
- small to medium-sized moves
However, the cheap option does not apply to jobs requiring specialized equipment or additional manpower:
- piano moving (upright or grand)
- pool or snooker table moving
- assembly/disassembly of complex furniture (IKEA, mechanisms)
- transport of heavy items (> 250 lbs): safe, giant aquarium, industrial workbench
In these cases, a tailored rate is offered, always at the best market price.
8 Practical Tips to Reduce Your Moving Bill
1. Rent the truck with a single driver
You load and unload with the help of friends and family. The mover drives, secures the cargo, and offers advice. Major savings on labor.
2. Pack everything yourself before the team arrives
Prepare your boxes, label them by room, and protect fragile items. Save 30 to 50% on total time. We are not responsible for internal damage, but you’ll pay significantly less.
3. Park the truck as close to your door as possible
Clear the driveway, clear the sidewalk, and reserve a parking spot. Less carrying means fewer hours billed.
4. Empty your refrigerator and freezer in advance
Transfer the contents into coolers or boxes. No waiting on site, saving 15 to 30 minutes.
5. Remove the door if a piece of furniture doesn’t fit
A door removed from its hinges can save 30 minutes of unnecessary maneuvering.
6. Clear interior access from the start
Place large furniture (sofa, bed, wardrobe) near the exit. Movers start with the heaviest items, optimizing the loading process.
7. Avoid month-ends and month-starts
The 28th, 29th, 30th, 1st, 2nd, and 3rd: explosive demand, prices increase by 30 to 50%. Opt for the 5th to the 20th of the month for a better rate.
8. Avoid July 1st at all costs
The national moving day: trucks are scarce, prices are multiplied by 2 or 3. If possible, reschedule for before or after.

FAQ – Cheap Movers
Is it possible to have just one mover with the truck?
Yes, it’s the most economical option. The driver is also a mover: he drives, secures the load, and offers professional advice. You load and unload with the help of friends and family.
If I pack everything myself, is it really cheaper?
Absolutely: a 30 to 50% reduction on the total bill. We provide boxes as an extra if needed. Huge time savings.
Are you responsible for items I packed myself?
No, only for damages caused during transport. Poorly packed items are your responsibility. Use double-thickness bubble wrap for fragile items.
Is a 20-foot truck enough for a 1-bedroom apartment?
Yes, generally. If in doubt, send photos: we’ll confirm the ideal size at no extra cost.
Should I reserve parking for the truck?
Yes, ideally. We’ll place cones if you notify us. Otherwise, time lost searching for a spot will be billed.
Should I empty my appliances before your arrival?
yes. Empty fridge, freezer, and washer (water). We’ll disconnect and transport them. Save 15-30 min.
Is furniture disassembly included in the cheap option?
Simple disassembly (beds, tables): yes. Complex furniture (IKEA, special mechanisms): reasonable surcharge.
Can we get the cheap option on July 1st?
No. On that day, all industry rates are doubled or tripled. Reschedule if your budget is tight.
How does payment work for the affordable option?
50% upon booking (secures the truck), 50% upon delivery. Card, Interac e-transfer, cash.
Are there cancellation fees?
Free if more than 48 hours in advance. Less than 48 hours: $50 administrative fee.
Is the price the same on the North Shore or South Shore?
Yes, a single rate throughout Greater Montreal. No zone surcharge.
Are the trucks clean and disinfected before each job?
Yes, full wash + disinfection after each client. No odor, no dust.
What exact time does the truck arrive?
A 1-hour window is confirmed the day before. SMS 30 minutes before arrival. Punctuality guaranteed.
If the move exceeds the estimated time, do I pay more?
Yes, by the quarter hour. But our estimate is realistic: 90% of clients stay within budget.
Can I track the truck in real-time during transport?
Yes, integrated GPS on all trucks. A link is shared upon request for your peace of mind.
