The way some see it, THIS may be the only parking option available. Good luck relocating your business w/that trunk space.

Staff at our Kamloops Moving Company browsed local periodical The Kamloops Daily News yesterday which reported on a downtown Kamloops forum that took place this week addressing the concern over a lack of available parking in the city core of Kamloops. Neighborhood business owners, big and small, feel that there is a need to bring (i.e. build) a solution so that the public can better enter downtown Kamloops and stay to shop, dine, and enjoy other leisure activities without worrying about whether or not they will find parking to accommodate their tenure in town. As a Kamloops mover we sympathize with the business community on this matter.

Fresh water fishing is a big deal in Kamloops. In fact, it’s most likely the Thompson Country region’s favorite pastime and the Kamloops area lakes are known to be the best fly fishing lakes in BC. Some will say the best in the country. Our Kamloops moving company won’t disagree with that statement because when we’re not busy moving Kamloops residents into their new homes you can find us out on the lakes, with the rest of the locals.

Last month saw larger than normal rainfall and the snow melt from the long winter season previous resulted in rising water levels of the Thompson River. Homeowners living along its borders kept a watchful eye on the river and made preparations to protect their possessions. Many held off on summer vacation plans until the concern subsided. While both locals and tourists are now basking in the river for watersports and recreational activities, residents continue to look for solutions to ease their concerns during high water advisories. Pioneer Moving & Storage has one solution.

Here’s how well planned short term storage can be a wise solution for protecting your household possessions during flood advisories:

The Outdoor Life Network (OLN) unveiled a new summer show this week called The Liquidator featuring Jeff Schwarz, a local Kamloops BC resident who runs a Liquidation business on the coast. Jeff could be seen over the years rummaging through garage and yard sales in our home town in search of rusty treasure and he turned his passion for the hunt into a full blown career. This recent televised event sparked our introductory blog – Liquidating to Lighten Your Load Before a Move -with a Yard Sale.

Summertime yard sales are a great way to minimize packing while earning some cash to put towards your move. Here’s how:
