How to Move an Apartment in Surrey, BC

Surrey is one of the fastest-growing cities in British Columbia, and apartment moves here are extremely common. Whether you're moving into a brand new condo in Clayton or relocating from a high-rise in Whalley, this guide will help you plan a successful apartment move in Surrey.

Step 1: Book Your Freight Elevator

Most Surrey apartment buildings and condos require you to book the freight elevator before your move. Contact your building manager at least 7–10 days before your moving date to reserve an elevator time window.

SS Moving Services can help coordinate this for you — just let us know your building address.

Step 2: Know Your Building's Moving Rules

Many Surrey strata buildings have specific moving rules:

• Moving hours (typically 8am–5pm, no weekends at some buildings)
• Required damage deposit for common areas
• No moving through main lobby
• Specific elevator reservation requirements

Step 3: Plan Your Parking

Large moving trucks need to park close to your building. Arrange with your building manager for a temporary parking permit or designated spot for the moving truck.
