We had a huge move from an acreage to a house in Airdrie. The guys (Jim and his crew) were awesome in both packing up and moving our furniture, including our beautiful piano. Everything was carefully wrapped, taped up and delivered to the new address and placed in its new location without any issues or damages. These guys worked tirelessly some 9 hours in total and were even willing to carry an older and heavy washer/dryer set to the basement without complaining. Kudos to these guys and this company, we will recommend them to anyone who wants to move without a ton of stress!

We have used Sparta for two moves in the last month. The booking of both moves was fantastic - Angela was very friendly and accommodated every request I had. Every time I called, she was organized, knew who I was, and which move I was calling about. The first move included moving furniture from one location to another and then unloading a storage pod. The crew was on time and very efficient - the pod was unloaded in record time. The second move included packing (Brandy and James did a great job with all the boxes, especially as we had to divide the contents for two separate drop-offs). The moving crew (Fazil, Farrukh and Randy) were also fantastic - and worked extremely efficiently to move the contents from a condo into a retirement residence, and then the remainder to another location. They understood and respected all the Covid restrictions necessary there. I will definitely use them again.

My experience with Sparta began speaking with Angela-Sparta’s receptionist and moving scheduler who really cared and expressed great concern for my move suggesting moving tips etc. Angela told me she’d send her “A Team” on my moving day and that she did! A team of 3 polite and respectful men moved my belongings (disassembled a bed for me and then reassembled it)....they were quick, efficient and the price was right. You get what you pay for. Thank you Sparta Movers!! I’d recommend your moving services to anyone.

From my first phone call for advice up until the movers left, everyone I dealt with was friendly, helpful and professional. Angela provided straight forward advice and helped me make important decisions about my move. She send a ton of resources; information about how to pack and what to clean, checklists and more information than I thought I needed. And she patiently answered all my questions. The movers showed up on time and ready to work hard. And work hard they did. The were friendly, professional and always made sure that everything was the way I wanted it. Even before they left they made sure that everything was set up in a way that made sense for me. I recommend Sparta Movers with no hesitation.

My friend recommended Sparta Movers because of the upfront costs. Angela was very thorough and did a great job with the quote and questions for our complicated move. We ended up using Sparta for storage as well, since it would be 3 weeks in between each mover.Maurice and his team did a fantastic job. No scuffs on the walls, everything packed tight, and they were very careful with our furniture. They worked hard and were professional throughout.On our second move, the movers were professional and there was not a single scratch on our walls. They made sure everything was in the right place and that we were happy with it.The total cost was very reasonable and even better than their competitors. I've heard horror stories from my other friends regarding broken furniture etc. so I am very happy that i went with Sparta. Moving is stressful and hard physical work. Best to go with the real pros. Tip the movers because they deserve it.

We hired Sparta Movers on 2 occasions: in June when our children moved and then for our move in July. The phone service was excellent and we appreciated the detailed report of all the information discussed which was emailed to us and could be updated. On both days, the crews were on time, extremely hard-working and concerned about doing fabulous work. This company really listens. It was evident that both crews had taken the time to read the report and were knowledgeable and concerned about our requests. This company communicates very effectively via email with a pre-move checklist and a text message to let you know the truck is on its way. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend Sparta Movers as they made the booking arrangements and both moving days stress free. Thank you Sparta Movers!

I called Sparta for same day move and I had movers at my door an hour later. Dominic and Fazu (sp?) were fantastic. My moving day was very stressful and I would have been stressed to tears if I didn’t have their help. They were early and speedy, they won’t waste your time. When the first tries at moving my ridiculous IKEA furniture up stairs were tricky, instead of trying to make it fit and scratching my walls they quickly disassembled everything and took it up piece by piece, and IKEA furniture sucks to take apart and reassemble. Glad I had them instead of bugging poor family members.

Excellent! There are no other words to describe their manner and conduct.We Had an awful experience with our previous movers (not sparta) and so we were hesitant to do it again. But Slava (I think he's the owner) came to our home to give us a quote, took the time to explain the process, what to expect, and how to prepare. This in my opinion was above and beyond.They sent reminders to us to confirm they were coming. We also had packing services and omg they finished an hour before expected with less material and thus we were billed for less than quoted!The Packers were professional and polite and the movers as much so! Polite, knowledgeable, and funny.I will be recommending them to our realtor.Ps. Cross posted on other sites!

We had a great experience with Sparta Movers. They truly exceeded all our expectations from start to finish. An estimator (Artur) arrived at our house on time and after a quick walk around our house explained everything and comfortably answered all our questions... and we had a lot of them. We got quotes from other companies. Sparta was not the cheapest but was very reasonably priced... and trust us, you do not want to go with the cheapest movers (from our previous and first hand experience moving). On the moving day, a crew arrived on time and worked tirelessly until everything was moved in our new bungalow and put in places. We gave our movers tea, snacks throughout the move and, oh boy, they were happy and in our opinion worked twice as hard. )))

I was a pain-in-the-butt customer. I know that. I asked for quotes from 10 different companies to move a very specific list of items. The quotes I got back varied wildly, some doubling others. I picked 3 companies who had better responses than the others (not necessarily cheaper, but seemingly more interested in winning my business) and continued pressing for more accurate quotes. I found that Sparta went above and beyond to earn my business and I was satisfied with the final quote. The actual move was like clock-work, even finishing earlier and further reducing the costs of the service. The guys were super friendly, hard working and careful, and even moved a couple of items that unexpectedly came up without even a hint of complaint. A great experience overall. I'd highly recommend Sparta for your moving needs.

It's hard to write a positive review if you're giving 5 stars because will think there must be some ulterior motive. But we used Sparta and they were great. Actually we had 3 hard workig fellows who woud happily pause holding huge loads and ask where we would like them placed. You'd think they were moving giant Faberge eggs they were so careful. Nothing got scratched dropped dented or anything. The guys never took a break and actually finished ahead of schedule and I paid less than the estimate. I recommended them to family who were equally pleased with the service. Having previously experienced a bad move this was a happy change. We wil look forward to using them again. They are cheerful, and seem to genuinely happy to be t work. They actually treated our possessions as if they were there own. Use these movers.

Great experience using Sparta Movers. After a referral from a friend at work, I decided to use Sparta as the company to move us. From the first email, everything was as professional as you could ask for. On the day of the move, i received a call from the workers and they advised me that they were doing truck checks and once that was completed they would make their way to our house. They were right on time, looked over all of our belongings and then read our contract out to us, showed it to us and then had us sign it. The moment that was done, they got to work and I couldn't be more impressed. The guys had our stuff in the truck so well stacked that every inch of the truck was used and all of our things fit.To deliver to our new house the truck had to be on a two lane undivided highway and during that trip a car tried to make a pass of 6 other vehicles causing the moving truck to partially hit the ditch. They handled the situation very well. Upon arrival we checked for any damage and if anything had shifted. To our surprise, we lost one tequila bottle through it all. And we aren't even sure if that happened during the transit. Everything else stayed in place and was unharmed. The guys had our house of 3 bedroom and 2 levels loaded and unloaded in 5 hours.Well worth it and cannot give these guys enough praise. The price is very comparable to all other companies and I think you need to look beyond price. Look at quality of work.To Arthur and Enzo, Thanks so much for making our moving day much easier and having an amazing work ethic.
