ROUTE-SPECIFIC MOVING PLAN
Directional planning written specifically for this corridor.
For pickup in Nanaimo, confirm Island road access, ferry-linked timing where applicable, parking, driveways and building access before moving day so the truck, crew and departure timing can be planned correctly.
This move starts on Vancouver Island and finishes on mainland British Columbia. Pickup timing is coordinated with the ferry crossing first, followed by the correct mainland highway and destination-access plan.
For delivery in Abbotsford, confirm detached homes, townhomes, longer driveways, rural-edge access and Highway 1 timing before arrival so unloading and final access match the confirmed plan.
Island pickup timing is coordinated with the commercial ferry crossing before the mainland portion of the route.
