Our Team

Your Atlas Canada mover employs a team

to handle your move. Each person is responsible

for different tasks, all working together to

ensure your satisfaction.

Layer 582

Professional Moving Consultant

The Atlas Professional Moving Consultant meets with you before the move, prepares a moving estimate, provides advice and answers your questions. The moving consultant coordinates your pack dates with the agency crew and equipment, scheduling your preferred pickup and delivery dates. Your Professional Moving Consultant reports your information to the Operations department at Atlas headquarters, where professionals monitor your long distance move to ensure everything goes smoothly.

Layer 581

Professional Van Operator

Your Atlas Van Operator is your moving day manager. He or she knows how to handle your possessions safely, how to load them securely, and how to supervise the crew who works on your move. The Professional Van Operator will ensure floor runners are put down to protect your home during loading and unloading. Thick cushioned moving pads will be used to safeguard your furniture. White and light-coloured upholstery will be wrapped in clear plastic and then wrapped in quilted moving pads.

Layer 583

Delivery

Your Professional Van Operator will provide you with an inventory list so you can confirm that everything has been delivered. If there are any items missing or damaged, make a note on the list prior to signing it as this is important. Your Atlas delivery crew will place your furniture where you want it in your new home. They’ll carry cartons to the kitchen, bedrooms, basement and garage as marked. They’ll unroll rugs, reassemble beds, and put them where you request.

Layer 584

Unpacking

Your Atlas delivery crew at destination will assign properly trained personnel to unpack any cartons that were packed by the Atlas crew at origin. Your unpackers will remove every item from the cartons and place them on convenient surfaces so that you can put them away at your leisure. They will also take away any packing materials and debris when they leave.

Your Atlas team provides a professional moving service from start to finish, just as you expect.

No Stranger In Your Home Program

Peace of Mind

Atlas is the first van line in Canada to implement

a nationwide background check program.

No Stranger In Your Home

Moving is a time when many people will enter your home, all with access to your possessions. Not to worry – Atlas Canada offers total peace of mind.

All Atlas personnel have been criminally background checked to provide service on all Atlas Canada moves. Under our No Stranger in Your Home program, all staff that work on your move are cleared for service including:

  • Professional Moving Consultant
  • Professional Van Operator
  • Loading & unloading crews
  • Packers
  • Warehouse personnel

Atlas has partnered with BackCheck, Canada’s leader in employment screening to complete this process with the highest degree of respect and discretion for the individuals’ privacy. We ensure that Atlas Canada movers hire employees who meet our standards.

All Atlas personnel who come into your home will carry an Atlas Canada photo ID Badge which contains an identification number that you can verify.

That’s peace of mind…

Quality In Motion

Atlas Canada is the first van line in Canada to put a quality program in place that requires mandatory actions from our moving consultants and agent moving companies on each move.

Atlas Canada’s Quality in Motion program is comprised of three pillars; Wisdom, Strength and Reward.

Wisdom

A considerable amount of time, effort and money is spent on training Atlas personnel. Webinars, regional meetings and hands on workshops are used for the delivery of training to our moving consultants, packers, loaders, van operators and admin personnel.

Strength

Quality Assurance Certificate

As part of this program, moving consultants must clearly explain each phase of the moving process to the customer including:

  • how estimated costs were calculated
  • how your shipment will be cared for and moved to your new location
  • how the schedule of services is determined
  • when you can expect to hear from your move driver
  • how your belongings will be catalogued
  • explanation of transit protection plans
  • explanation of unpacking services
  • explanation of the payment options available on your move

Customers are then asked to sign the Atlas Quality Assurance Certificate to acknowledge receipt and to confirm all moving processes were clearly explained to them.

Essential Services

Our mover agents and van operators must complete an Essential Services Form on each move to confirm all the mandatory actions have been completed. Financial penalties are assessed to those who do not complete a mandatory action.

  • confirmation letter sent to customer
  • Quality Assurance Certificate issued and receipted by customer
  • use of a set up carton on the move
  • properly completed packing labels
  • plastic wrap of all upholstered furniture
  • use of floor runners and banister protection
  • proper set up and reassembly of all items disassembled by mover
  • unpacking service  performed to customers satisfaction (if packing service was purchased)
  • customer contacted minimum of 24-48 hours in advance of delivery

Reward

Monthly and quarterly rewards and recognition are given to those who have given outstanding customer service and include Sales, Administration, Van Operators, Packers and Unpackers. These monthly and quarterly rewards are based solely on customer letters or emails.

Yearly Quality Awards –  Atlas Canada’s yearly quality awards for our mover agents and van operators are based on a number of factors; claims frequency, claims cost, on time deliveries and by customer ratings and comments on our post- move Quality Surveys.
