How Nash moves you
Crates first. Furniture second.
Every Lougheed move packs the same way: our uniform tubs fill the truck floor to ceiling, wall to wall, then the furniture goes in. No loose boxes stacked on your couch.
Lougheed is the northeast town centre of Burnaby, sitting at the major intersection of North Road and Lougheed Highway. North Road marks the border with Coquitlam, with Burquitlam directly across, and the corridor along North Road and Clarke Road is Metro Vancouver's Koreatown, with Korean grocers and restaurants on both sides of the border. Lougheed Town Centre station anchors the area as an interchange between the Expo and Millennium lines with millions of riders each year, but the neighbourhood is defined by two very different housing landscapes. The massive redevelopment of The City of Lougheed brings dozens of new towers to the old mall site, while Sullivan Heights and Cameron Street hold the older rental stock of the 1960s and 70s. We move through both zones daily. One flat rate covers the scope, the stairs, and the tower protocols. Call or text Nash Moving for your quote.
Tower moves and Shape protocols
The City of Lougheed is reshaping the skyline above the mall site. Shape Properties master plan adopted in 2016 calls for more than 20 towers and over 10,000 homes, and the site has already seen significant build-out. Neighbourhood One is complete with around 1,500 homes and retail anchored by PriceSmart Foods. Tower Three stands at 37 storeys with 262 move-in-ready condos, and Tower Four operates as a 237-suite Shape-managed rental. The mall itself stays open throughout construction with over 160 stores and the Eateries food hall.
Tower moves here follow strict building rules. You must book the service elevator well in advance, and the certificate of insurance must name the strata or management company. In the summer peak the best elevator windows go weeks ahead, so it is the first question we ask. Our crew handles the insurance certificate and coordinates with the concierge to confirm the loading dock, the dock height, and the staged-and-continuous elevator discipline. The new towers share docks, so we plan the route to match the building's loading schedule. We tell you exactly what to book and confirm the entrance before move day.
Austin Road access and construction traffic
Austin Road runs straight into the heart of the development, feeding both the mall site and the Lougheed Town Centre station. Tower construction trucks use this road to access the site, which shares the street with commuter traffic. The intersection of North Road and Lougheed is one of the busiest crossings in northeast Burnaby, with long queues both ways during rush hour. The construction access on Austin means that lane space is tight and truck movement is restricted at times.
We check the active construction status and the road layout close to your move date rather than relying on older maps. We stage the truck where the construction traffic is not and time the drive to avoid the worst of the North Road queues. Drive time is an input to your flat rate, never a meter. The price we confirm before you book is the price you pay. Call or text Nash Moving for your flat-rate quote.
Sullivan Heights and the rental low-rises
Sullivan Heights and the Cameron Street corridor offer a completely different move environment. This sub-area consists of 1960s and 70s rental low-rises, many of which are walk-ups with stairs and no elevator. A number of these buildings are in the redevelopment pipeline, which means you might be dealing with the logistics of a walk-up move-out or a new-tower move-in where the service elevators are already fully booked. Moves in Sullivan Heights rely on honest inventory counts, interior turns, and the physical effort of navigating staircases.
The Burnaby tenant protection bylaw, which comes into effect on July 1, 2026, covers redeveloped purpose-built rentals of five or more units. The bylaw requires the owner to arrange an insured moving company or provide a flat payment, along with rent top-ups and the right of first refusal. If your move falls under this protection, we coordinate directly with the property owner or management to ensure all insurance and access requirements are met. We scope the exact address regardless of the building type.
Permits, containers, and street rules
Burnaby has specific rules for street storage and heavy vehicles that affect staging in Lougheed. If you need a storage container on the street, you must apply at mypermits.burnaby.ca at least five working days in advance. The container requires about $17 per day plus a $113 administration fee, capped at five days, and you must provide a $2 million insurance certificate naming the City. The container cannot be placed within 15 metres of a crosswalk or 6 metres of a lane or driveway, and lane placement is not allowed.
Burnaby also bans trucks over 3,600 kilograms from parking overnight on any street in the city. Vehicles over 11,800 kilograms must use designated truck routes. If you need a lane or sidewalk closure, a Traffic Control Permit is required with minimum 15 business days lead time and $5 million insurance. We sort whichever permit applies when you book and plan the staging accordingly.
Corridors and local timing
The North Road corridor runs through Burquitlam and Lougheed, lined with Korean grocers and restaurants that define the Metro Vancouver Koreatown. The area hosts the North Road K-Food Festival in early September, with the City of Lougheed lot by the station filling up for the event. Swangard Stadium, across Burnaby at Central Park, hosts the annual Korean Cultural Heritage Festival in July. The BC Dumpling Festival is up the corridor in Coquitlam mid-August. These events bring crowds to the streets, and the North Road and Lougheed crossing becomes even busier.
We check the local calendar for your move date and adjust the staging plan to keep the truck clear. The Cameron Recreation Complex and Library are undergoing replacement on Cameron Street from 2025 to 2028, with interim services located in the mall's lower level. We know the streets, the tower protocols, the permit rules, and the event schedule. One flat rate, confirmed up front. Call or text Nash Moving for your flat-rate quote.

Lougheed questions
Asked before booking in Lougheed.
The City of Lougheed has dozens of new towers. How do you handle those moves?
The City of Lougheed is a massive redevelopment on the old mall site with more than 20 towers planned and over 10,000 homes at build-out. Neighbourhood One is complete, Tower Three stands at 37 storeys, and Tower Four operates as a Shape-managed rental. Tower moves here require a booked service elevator, a certificate of insurance naming the strata or management, and coordination for shared loading docks. In summer the good elevator windows go weeks ahead, so we ask for your booking confirmation immediately. We handle the insurance certificate, check the dock height, and plan the staged-and-continuous elevator discipline to fit your inventory into the building's loading window.
Austin Road is busy. Can you stage near the station?
Austin Road feeds the mall site and the Lougheed Town Centre station, and it carries tower construction traffic all day. The intersection of North Road and Lougheed is one of the busiest crossings in northeast Burnaby, with long queues during rush hour. Staging right by the station or on Austin is often impossible due to the construction access and transit priority. We stage the truck where the construction traffic is not, usually on a side street, and we check the active road layout close to your move date. We time the drive to avoid the worst of the North Road queues, and drive time is an input to your flat rate, never a meter.
What about the older rentals in Sullivan Heights?
Sullivan Heights and Cameron Street hold 1960s and 70s rental low-rises, many of which are walk-ups with stairs and no elevator. A number of these buildings are in the redevelopment pipeline, so you might be dealing with a walk-up move-out or a new-tower move-in where the service elevators are already fully booked. Moves here rely on honest inventory counts, interior turns, and the physical effort of navigating staircases. The Burnaby tenant protection bylaw, effective July 1, 2026, covers redeveloped purpose-built rentals of five or more units. The bylaw requires the owner to arrange an insured moving company or provide a flat payment, along with rent top-ups and the right of first refusal. If your move falls under this protection, we coordinate with the property owner to meet all requirements.
Do I need a permit for a storage container on the street?
Yes. Burnaby requires a permit for street storage containers. You must apply at mypermits.burnaby.ca at least five working days in advance. The container costs about $17 per day plus a $113 administration fee, with a maximum stay of five days. You must provide a $2 million insurance certificate naming the City of Burnaby. The container cannot be placed within 15 metres of a crosswalk or 6 metres of a lane or driveway, and lane placement is not allowed. If you need a lane or sidewalk closure, a Traffic Control Permit is required with minimum 15 business days lead time and $5 million insurance. We sort whichever applies when you book.
Can trucks park overnight in Lougheed?
Burnaby bans trucks over 3,600 kilograms from parking overnight on any street in the city. Vehicles over 11,800 kilograms must use designated truck routes. This rule shapes multi-day moves and storage plans. If you need the truck to stay nearby, we plan the staging and loading to complete the job within the allowed hours, or we arrange for the container and permit process to hold goods securely. We confirm the overnight rule and the staging plan before we send the truck.
How do local events affect a move in Lougheed?
The North Road corridor hosts several annual events that bring crowds to the streets. The North Road K-Food Festival takes place in early September with the City of Lougheed lot by the station filling up. Swangard Stadium hosts the Korean Cultural Heritage Festival in July. The BC Dumpling Festival is up the corridor in Coquitlam mid-August. These events add traffic and limit curb space. We check the local calendar for your move date and adjust the staging plan to keep the truck clear. You get the same flat rate whether we move you in July or in September, but we schedule the window to avoid the closures.
