Not all moving companies are created equal — here’s how to spot the difference.

In this episode of Blueprint Banter, Ryan sits down with Slava Kacheev, founder of Sparta Movers and part of the Baeumler Approved network, to uncover what really makes a moving company trustworthy. From local moves across Calgary to overseas relocations, Slava explains the systems, certifications, and customer-first mindset that set his team apart.

You’ll hear how to avoid red flags like too-good-to-be-true pricing, why proper insurance and registration with the Canadian Association of Movers matter, and how new technologies — from AI-powered inventory to GPS tracking — are reshaping the moving experience. Slava also shares his journey from engineer to entrepreneur, and why building the right team was just as critical as building his fleet.

Whether you’re moving down the street or across the world, this episode is full of practical advice on protecting your belongings, avoiding scams, and finding movers who truly go the extra mile.
