Fraser Heights sits in the far northeast corner of Surrey, walled off from the rest of the city. Highway 1 runs the whole southern edge. The Fraser River closes off the north. Golden Ears Way caps the east. Locals call it an island within a city, and they’re right. Most days there’s one real way in: 160 Street. We plan every Fraser Heights move around that geometry, because a truck that takes the wrong run-in can lose half an hour before it even reaches your driveway.
The homes here are big. Fraser Heights was zoned for large detached single-family houses, and that’s what fills it. The neighbourhood grew from a few hundred homes to around 5,000, and about 25,000 people live here now, mostly upper-income families. Fraser Glen was the first subdivision, built in the early 1980s. Fraser Prospect and Fraser Ridge came later, laid out on a former sand-and-gravel pit. Each pocket moves a little differently, and we know which streets climb and which ones don’t.
Most of these houses sit on elevated lots with long driveways and views over the Fraser River and Coquitlam Mountain. That elevation is the whole story for a moving crew. Long approach, a grade up to the front door, a basement level below, and sometimes a gated entry to clear first. We’ve carried sofas and safes up those driveways. We know to scope the run from truck to door before the ramp comes down, not after.
The hub is Fraser Heights Village at 160 Street and 108 Avenue, anchored by Nesters Market. Fraser Heights Secondary sits a block over at 16060 108 Avenue. The rec centre, the parks, the skate park and the trail network are all inside the island, which is why people who land here tend to stay and move within it. A lot of our work here is local: trading up to a bigger lot a few streets over, or shifting a parent into a smaller place nearby.
We’re based at 8567 164 Street, a short hop south and east of the island. That matters. We’re not crossing the Port Mann to reach you, and we’re not fighting our way in from across Surrey. We run the 160 Street approach all the time, so we hit your driveway with the crew size and the gear the home actually needs, not a guess made from a map.
Single access changes the plan. With 160 Street as the main way in and a smaller exit off 152 Street onto 110th Avenue, we time the truck to miss the worst of the Port Mann crush on Highway 1’s edge. That bridge carries roughly 179,000 vehicles a day, and the Fraser Valley Highway 1 widening east of here keeps crews and lane shifts active through the corridor. We route around it. Big detached homes mean a bigger crew and a real plan, so our local moving crews in Surrey show up sized for the house, not the address.
Then there’s the home itself. Long, often steep driveways. A grade up to the front door. Three finished levels with a basement below and bedrooms above. Heavy stuff lives in these houses: a gun safe, a treadmill, a sectional that took two people to bring in. That’s where heavy and oversized item movers earn their keep, and where a grand piano in the front room means we send a dedicated piano moving team with the right board and straps. We scope the driveway grade and the door swings before anything rolls.
Some pockets here are gated communities, and a few homes back onto the trail network with tight side access. We confirm the gate code, the visitor parking, and where the truck can sit without blocking a neighbour’s drive. For the big packs, our packing services wrap the china, the art and the closets the day before so move day is just the carry. On an elevated lot, fewer trips up that driveway is the whole game.
The standard Fraser Heights move is a large detached house in Fraser Glen, Fraser Ridge or Fraser Prospect, three levels with a basement and a long driveway up to the door. We size the crew to the square footage, not the postal code. More hands means fewer trips up that grade and a shorter day. We protect the hardwood and the stair runners, pad the banisters, and plan the carry path from basement to truck before the first box moves.
Houses this size hold heavy things. Safes, treadmills, pool tables, oversized sectionals, and the upright or grand piano in the front room. We bring the straps, the four-wheel dolly and the piano board, and we work the long driveway grade slow and controlled. Stairs inside, a step down at the entry, a tight turn at the landing: we plan each one. Nothing gets dragged, nothing gets forced. The heavy stuff moves last and gets strapped first in the truck.
Fraser Heights has limited access, mainly off 160 Street with a smaller way in via 152 Street to 110th Avenue. We time the truck to dodge the Port Mann backups on Highway 1 and the active widening work east of the bridge. From our 164 Street base we run this approach constantly, so we know the grades, the gated entries and where a 26-foot truck can actually park on your street without blocking a neighbour.

We bill on time, on the actual hours your move takes, and we break the clock down for you up front. No flat quote, no padded estimate. In Fraser Heights the hours come from real things: the crew size your big detached home needs, the long driveway grade between the truck and the door, the basement-to-top-floor carry, and any heavy item or piano that needs its own setup. Pack the night before and the carry runs faster.
Drive time stays short because we’re close. Our base at 8567 164 Street is minutes from the 160 Street run-in, so we’re not eating the clock crossing Surrey or sitting on the Port Mann to reach you. We confirm gate codes and where the truck can park before move day so the crew starts carrying the moment they arrive. You see the crew, the truck and the start time before we begin, and the hours are the hours.

Real five-star reviews from our Surrey customers, straight from Google.
Yes, all the time. We’re based at 8567 164 Street, a short run south of the island, so Fraser Heights is close to home for us. We cover Fraser Glen, Fraser Ridge, Fraser Prospect and Fraser Heights Village at 160 Street and 108 Avenue. We know the 160 Street run-in and the big detached homes on the elevated lots.
Fraser Heights is hemmed in by Highway 1 and the Fraser River, so there’s basically one way in, off 160 Street, with a smaller exit via 152 Street to 110th Avenue. We time the truck to miss the Port Mann backups and the highway widening work on the south edge, so the crew arrives ready instead of stuck in traffic.
Yes. Most homes here sit on elevated lots with a long grade up to the door, and we plan for it. We scope the run from truck to entry before the ramp comes down, size the crew to keep trips down, and use dollies built for the slope. Heavy pieces go slow and strapped so nothing gets away from us on the incline.
We do. Plenty of these big homes have an upright or a grand in the front room. We send a dedicated piano team with a board, straps and the right dolly, and we plan the door swings, the entry step and the driveway grade in advance. It moves last and gets secured first in the truck.
Fraser Heights has some of Surrey’s gated communities, and we work them often. We confirm the gate code or call-up, sort out visitor parking, and find a spot the truck can sit without blocking a neighbour’s drive. Getting that locked in before move day keeps the crew carrying instead of waiting at the gate.
Yes. Houses this size tend to hold them: gun safes, pool tables, treadmills, big sectionals. Our heavy-item crew brings the straps and the four-wheel dolly and works the basement stairs and the driveway grade slow and controlled. We scope each tight turn and step first, so nothing gets dragged or forced.
Sooner is better, especially for a big detached home that needs a larger crew and a longer day. Give us a week or two if you can. For tighter timelines we’ll do our best to fit you in. Booking early lets us confirm gate codes, parking and the right crew size for your house ahead of time.
Yes. For a three-level home with a basement, packing the day before makes move day just the carry, which matters a lot on a long elevated driveway. We wrap the china, the art and the closets, label by room, and protect the fragile stuff so the only thing left on move day is loading the truck.
Both. A lot of our work here is local, trading up to a bigger lot a few streets over or downsizing a parent nearby. We also move people out to other parts of Surrey and beyond. Either way we plan the 160 Street run-in and the home’s grade and stairs the same careful way.
The Fraser Valley Highway 1 widening is active east of the Port Mann, on Fraser Heights’ south edge, and the bridge itself is the busiest in Canada. We route around the worst of it and time the truck to dodge the backups. From our 164 Street base we run this corridor constantly, so the construction rarely costs you time.
