About Us


In 1978 Harry Mans decided to buy a moving company and he’s never looked back. Harry is a Dutch immigrant who came to Canada in 1951. He saw an ad in the newspaper for a moving company, thought it was a great idea to have the family working together and, with help from his dad Albert, founded Mountaineer Movers, which today has 6 local trucks and 2 long haul trucks. Mountaineer Movers has been working with north American Van Lines since May 2006 but have been helping customers move across Canada since 1990.

We have private storage available at reasonable rates, from 1 day to long term with camera surveillance with only Mountaineer Movers staff having access to storage lockers.

Mountaineer Movers in 2006 opened a box – supply and moving equipment store. We have 1 stop shopping for all your packing needs, whether it is paper, tape, boxes of various sizes, wardrobes, and picture mirror boxes.
