The Future is Back
With a rich history and longstanding dedication to being the strongest link in your supply chain, the reintroduction of Future Transfer’s original management team means a strong commitment to being a true partner to you.
Our people and the relationships we develop with our customers, suppliers and communities are at the centre of what we do – that’s why our small-town community roots are so important. Our deep roots mean that we don’t just know this business, we also have a commitment to it, to our people and to growth. These values extend across everything we do.
Future Transfer is an amalgamation of three reputable brands, Fort Storage, BlueStar and Future Transfer that have all earned their reputations as proven solutions-providers. We are thrilled to continue to be your full-stack supply chain solution, now with an even greater ability to adapt, connect and grow.

Waste Transfer
A state-of-the-art, fully covered unloading area allows Future Transfer to relocate waste substances, such as oil, from railcars to tankers inside a fully approved, spill-confined transfer facility. This facility was developed in conjunction with the city planners, by law enforcement agencies and the Ministry of Environment.
Once you have compiled a list of movers, inform them of the destination and timing of your
move. Ask them about the types of services they offer. Also ask them to explain their
estimates in detail and to give you a copy. If any company refuses to give you a written
estimate, you should eliminate them from consideration. Then carefully compare to see which
mover best suits your needs and budget.
The cost of your move will be based on the actual weight of your belongings and the distance
they are shipped, plus the amount of packing and other services that you require.
To help you anticipate the cost of your move, movers will give you an estimate of the price.
Be sure to get written estimates from at least 3 different movers so that you can compare
their services and prices.
You have the right to receive an estimate based on a physical (in-house) survey of your
shipment. Under the regulations, your mover must base your estimate (either binding,
non-binding, or not-to-exceed), on a physical survey of the household goods to be moved if
the goods are located with a 50-mile radius of your mover’s (or his agent’s) place of business.
You may elect to waive this requirement for a physical survey, but if you elect to do so,
you must sign a written waiver of your rights.
