South Surrey sits on the Semiahmoo Peninsula, the upscale corner of the city south of Highway 10 and out to the White Rock line. Big homes, big lots, long driveways. We move Morgan Creek estates off the fairways at Morgan Creek Golf Course, the older character places in Elgin and around Chantrell Creek, and the brand-new detached homes and townhomes going up across Grandview Heights and Morgan Heights. Each one needs a different plan, and we build it before the truck rolls.
Grandview Heights is the part that’s changed fastest. It got rezoned back in 2005 from hobby farms and big rural estates into medium-density housing, and it hasn’t stopped since. Grandview Heights Aquatic Centre opened at 24 Ave and 168 St in 2016. Grandview Heights Secondary opened in 2021, the first new high school in South Surrey since 1993. New builds like the 39-townhome Veza by Raicon keep coming. We move people into half-finished streets where the landscaping isn’t in yet.
Then there’s the retail and town-centre band: Grandview Corners at 24 Ave and 160 St with its 85-plus stores off Highway 99, The Shops at Morgan Crossing, Southpoint Exchange. A lot of our South Surrey moves are families trading up into this side from elsewhere in Surrey, or right-sizing seniors moving out of a big Elgin or Chantrell house. We handle both ends of that.
We know the access quirks too. The peninsula is car-dependent – no SkyTrain, just buses feeding King George Station from the South Surrey Park & Ride. Grandview Heights only got its first bus route, the 531 on 24 Ave, in 2012. That means moving day here runs on the road network: Highway 99, Highway 15, King George Boulevard. We plan the truck route around 16 Ave and 24 Ave traffic, not around a transit stop.
Our base is at 8567 164 St, a short run up King George from most of the peninsula. We’ve done estate moves, gated-community moves, piano and antique moves, and full new-build move-ins across South Surrey. We don’t fake the local detail. We know which Morgan Creek streets have the long uphill driveways and which Grandview Heights blocks are still active construction zones with a portable toilet on the boulevard.
The estate homes are the real work here. A Morgan Creek or Chantrell house is often three levels with a finished basement, a wide curved staircase, and a driveway long enough that the truck can’t get tight to the front door. That’s a longer carry, more crew, and careful pad-wrapping on every banister and hardwood tread. Big homes hold big pieces too – grand pianos, oversized sectionals, gun safes, slate pool tables. Our heavy and oversized item crew and piano movers handle those without scratching the millwork.
The new builds in Grandview Heights and Morgan Heights bring their own headaches. Streets are still being finished, so there’s mud, no curb in places, and contractor trucks parked three-deep. Townhome complexes like Veza have strata move-in rules, a booked elevator or loading zone, and tight visitor parking. We confirm the move-in window with the strata before the day and we protect new floors and fresh paint on the way in. For a downsizing senior leaving a big Elgin home for a townhome, our senior moving service takes the whole thing slow and labelled.
Plenty of South Surrey clients want the white-glove treatment, and the homes earn it. Antiques, art, wine fridges, fragile heirlooms. We bring full packing, custom crating for the breakables, and a careful unpack at the other end so nothing sits in a box for a week. Our white-glove movers are who you want when the contents are worth more than the truck.
These are the big ones – three-storey detached houses off Morgan Creek Golf Course, older character homes around Chantrell Creek and Elgin, long driveways and curved staircases. We send a bigger crew so the long carry from a deep driveway doesn’t drag out the clock. Every banister gets padded, every hardwood tread protected. We move the grand piano, the safe and the oversized art the same day as the couches, with a plan written up front so nothing about the size of the house surprises us on move morning.
Moving into a brand-new Grandview Heights or Morgan Heights home means active construction next door, unfinished streets, and contractor trucks everywhere. For townhomes like the Raicon-built Veza, there’s a strata move-in window and a loading zone to book. We confirm all of it ahead of time, protect the fresh floors and new paint on the way in, and park the truck so we’re not blocking the next house’s crew. First move into a new place should feel clean, not chaotic.
A lot of South Surrey moves go the other way – a couple leaving a big Elgin or Ocean Park house after thirty years, heading to a townhome or a one-level place near Morgan Crossing. That’s a slower, more careful job. We pack the china and the keepsakes properly, label every box by room, and set up the new place so the essentials are out the first night. No rushing someone out of a home they’ve had for decades. We’ve done a lot of these on the peninsula.

We bill by the hour, on the actual time the move takes, broken down for you up front. No padded estimate and no flat-rate guess. On the peninsula a few things drive the hours, and we tell you which ones before the day. The long driveways at Morgan Creek and Chantrell mean a longer carry, so a bigger home gets a bigger crew to keep the clock moving. A new-build townhome in Grandview Heights with a booked strata elevator and a tight loading zone takes coordination we plan in advance.
Drive time matters too, and on this side it’s short – we run out of our 8567 164 St base straight down King George Boulevard or Highway 99, so you’re not paying for a long haul across the city. Stairs, the number of oversized pieces, packing, and whether we’re crating antiques all factor in. We walk the home or do a video call first, give you the real hour range and the crew size, and you see exactly what you’re paying for. No surprises when the truck’s loaded.

South Surrey is the upscale end of the city, spread across the Semiahmoo Peninsula down to the White Rock line. Bigger homes, bigger lots, and longer driveways, from Morgan Creek estates to the new Grandview Heights builds and the Ocean Park waterfront.
The Semiahmoo Peninsula south of Highway 10, including Morgan Creek, Elgin, Chantrell, Grandview Heights, Morgan Heights, Ocean Park and Crescent Beach, bordering White Rock and the US line.
Real five-star reviews from our Surrey customers, straight from Google.
Yes, the whole peninsula south of Highway 10 – Morgan Creek, Elgin, Chantrell, Grandview Heights, Morgan Heights, and the Ocean Park and Crescent Beach edges toward the White Rock line. We’re based up King George at 8567 164 St, so we’re a short run from any of it. Estate homes, new builds and townhomes all the same.
All the time. Many Morgan Creek and Chantrell homes off the golf course have driveways too long or too steep to back the truck right to the door. We bring extra crew to keep the carry quick, use dollies and ramps, and pad-wrap pieces for the longer walk so nothing gets bumped on the way out.
Yes. Grandview Heights and Morgan Heights still have active construction, unfinished streets and contractor trucks parked everywhere. We scout the access ahead of time, plan where to put the truck so we’re not blocking neighbours, and protect your fresh floors and new paint on the way in. New-home move-ins are routine for us here.
Yes. Big South Surrey homes hold big pieces, and our heavy-item and piano crew handle grands, uprights, slate pool tables, gun safes and oversized art. We pad and strap everything, plan the path through the curved staircases these estate homes tend to have, and protect the millwork and hardwood on the way down.
That’s a big part of what we do on the peninsula. Leaving a house you’ve had for decades isn’t a rush job. We pack the china and keepsakes properly, label by room, and set up the new townhome or one-level place so the essentials are out the first night. Slow, careful and respectful.
New townhome stratas like the Raicon-built Veza usually have a move-in window, a loading zone and limited visitor parking. We confirm the rules with your strata before the day, book any elevator or loading bay, and stage the truck so we stay inside the window without blocking other residents.
No – South Surrey is car-dependent. There’s no SkyTrain out here, just buses feeding King George Station from the South Surrey Park & Ride. Grandview Heights only got its first route, the 531 on 24 Ave, in 2012. So we plan the move around the road network – Highway 99, Highway 15 and King George Boulevard – and the timing around 16 Ave and 24 Ave traffic.
Yes. A lot of South Surrey homes are full of things worth protecting – antiques, art, wine fridges, heirlooms. We bring full packing, custom crating for the fragile pieces, and a white-glove unpack at the other end so nothing valuable sits in a box for a week. We pack it like it’s ours.
For a big home, the earlier the better – estate moves need a bigger crew and a longer window, and summer fills up fast. Give us a couple weeks if you can. We’ll do a walkthrough or video call first to size the crew and the truck, then lock the date so the day runs on schedule.
We do. Those are the older waterfront pockets on the west and south of the peninsula – we cover them, though Crescent Beach has only two road crossings over the BNSF rail line, so access there takes some planning. Most of our South Surrey work is the estate homes and new builds inland, but the coast is no problem.
