Every item has a story.
Recently, we had the privilege of helping Aldrina downsize in preparation for her upcoming move. Aldrina reached out to Friend With a Truck after being referred by her niece, whose mother we had previously helped transition from her longtime family home into a seniors' condominium.
As we worked through the downsizing process, it became clear that many of the items still had plenty of life left in them. Rather than sending them to the landfill, we were able to help find new homes for much of what was no longer needed.
Furniture and household items were donated to seniors rebuilding their lives after fleeing domestic violence, newcomers who had recently been displaced by a fire, and a large dining room set found a new purpose in a local sober living house supporting people in recovery.
Moving and downsizing can be emotional and overwhelming, but it's always rewarding to see cherished items continue to serve others in our community.
Thank you, Aldrina, for trusting Friend With a Truck to be part of your journey.

We found a double boxspring for Penny.
Thank you

Good morning,
We are helping a senior transition out of a shelter tonight and into her new place. One item that we really could use is a double boxspring.
If you have one that you were meaning to move on from, we could pick it up from you this evening.
Please message me.
Thank you,
David

Community is built one act of kindness at a time. ❤️
We would like to send out a huge thank you to the Edmonton Newcomers for reaching out to us and connecting us with Jonas and his son. This family was recently displaced by a fire and sadly lost everything.
Today, because of people coming together, we were able to help make their new space feel a little more like home.
A big thank you as well to:
Christa from Rose City Professional Organizing
John at Giving 2 Charity for helping provide much-needed items.
Len and Shauna for donating the couch, dining set, and lamps.
Silvana, who paid us to remove her bedroom suite, which helped support this effort.
At Friend with a Truck, we work hard to make sure good furniture gets into the hands of families who truly need it whenever possible.
This was another great example of community supporting community. 💙

Another job that turned into something bigger.

Today started with a call from Shawn, who needed help clearing out a storage locker his parents no longer needed in St. Albert.
Straightforward removal job—but when we opened it up, it was clear there was some really solid furniture in there.
Now here’s where things lined up.
Just recently, we were contacted by Sage Seniors Association about a senior who was moving into a new place with nothing—starting completely fresh. We had already helped get her set up with a hydraulic bed and brand-new mattress thanks to Giving 2 Charity.
So instead of heading to the dump, Sean’s furniture went straight to someone who truly needed it.
We delivered everything today and she took it all. Absolutely loved it. You could tell it meant a lot.
This is exactly what we aim for: You call us for junk removal… and when possible, we redirect value back into the community.
Big thanks to:
Shawn, for trusting us with the removal request.
Sage Seniors Association, for connecting the need
Giving 2 Charity, for stepping up with essential items
And Dave for putting in the work today 💪
If you’ve got items to remove, we’ll handle it—and when the opportunity’s there, we’ll make sure it does some good too.

From removal… to a fresh start.
We were recently hired for a junk removal job in Edmonton, and part of that included a beautiful queen-size bedroom set, from Helen.
Instead of heading to the dump, we saw an opportunity.
So we did what we always try to do.
We delivered it, set it up, and gave it a second life.
This time, it went to Heather and just like that, something no longer needed became a fully set-up bedroom and a fresh start.
A big thank you to Helen for making that possible. Moments like this don’t happen without people like you.
This is the part of the job most people don’t see.
At Friend with a Truck, we’re out every day doing junk removal, moving, and transport but along the way, when there’s an opportunity, we redirect good items to people who truly need them.
It’s not every job but when it happens, it matters.
So if you’ve got items to clear out, we’ll take care of it.
And when we can, we’ll make sure something good comes from it.
Thank you

This is why we do what we do.
Last week, we had the opportunity to help a pregnant single mom of two, move into a new home—and we’re proud to say… we got it done.
From start to finish, this one meant a lot.
With the help of Mark, Dave, Evgenie, we were able to get her fully moved in and set up for a fresh start—but what really stood out was the support from the community. The messages, encouragement, and people stepping up… it didn’t go unnoticed.
This is the kind of work that reminds us what Friend with a Truck is really about.
Yes—we move families.
Yes—we handle junk removal.
Yes—we transport items across the city.
But when the opportunity comes to step in and make a real difference… we take it.
Because at the end of the day, it’s not just about the move—
it’s about showing up when it matters most.
This is what community looks like!

This is why we started Friend with a Truck.

Free Community Move.

This Saturday afternoon, we’re stepping away from our regular moving, junk removal, and item transport work to do something that matters even more.

We’ll be helping a pregnant single mom of two move from her two-bedroom suite into a new townhouse across the city—a fresh start for this family.

This is the kind of work that reminds us why we do what we do.

We’re often asked, “How can we help?”
Well—this is one of those moments.

If you would like to be part of something meaningful in our community, here’s your chance:
Lend a hand for a few hours

Help us make the move smoother and less stressful
Be part of giving a family a fresh start.
Even just showing up makes a difference.

Send us a message if you’d like to join us or support in any way.

From Sherwood Park to Vegreville — another move, another story

Today Evgeni and I hit the road with Friend with a Truck to help Clarence and his family make the move out to Vegreville.

What made this one special?
Pulling into a community rich with Ukrainian heritage — and stopping by the iconic pysanka (that massive Ukrainian Easter egg) that proudly represents it.

Even more meaningful — Evgeni is originally from Ukraine, so this stop wasn’t just a photo… it was personal.

This is the kind of work we love. It’s not just about moving furniture — it’s about helping families start their next chapter, and along the way, connecting with the communities we serve.

Whether we’re helping families move, hauling away what’s no longer needed, or transporting items across Alberta — we’re always proud to be part of the journey.

Thanks again to Clarence and his family for trusting us.

Not every job is easy… but that’s exactly why people call us.

When Denise needed a couch to complete her studio, we stepped in to help and made sure to get a donated sofabed up her three-story walk-up, safely and properly.
The next day, she sent us this:
I'm so happy with the couch. Thank you.
My home looks so much bigger with the bed gone. YAY! Thank you. My studio is complete. I appreciate the sofabed — my home is very cozy 😊”

Moments like this matter.
And when we’re not busy helping families move, decluttering spaces for seniors, or handling junk removal and item transport…
we’re still showing up — doing whatever it takes to get the job done right.
We’re proud to be part of a community where people look out for each other.
