~$315K EBITDA | Moving Company | Vancouver Island
Business Overview
Project Lift is a residential and light commercial moving company generating $1.55M in revenue with zero debt, healthy margins, and 750+ Google reviews at a 4.8–4.9 rating. Founded in the late 2010s, the business combines a distinctive, youth-oriented brand with systemized operations, a seven-truck owned fleet, and a full-time general manager who handles all day-to-day operations. The founder's involvement has been reduced to 10–15 hours weekly, focused exclusively on marketing and strategic planning, while documented processes, a modern Jobber CRM, and a stable crew of 20–30 employees deliver consistent service quality across the city, and emerging inter-provincial long-haul routes.
The business operates on a turnkey platform with clear growth opportunities and minimal owner dependency. Core revenue comes from local residential moves, supplemented by higher-margin long-haul routes that currently run 1–2 times monthly but could scale to four runs monthly with minimal capex and marketing investment.
With existing facility capacity to support 12 trucks, proven crew retention, and performance-tracked digital marketing channels, the company is positioned for growth through long-haul expansion, local market density capture, and commercial contract development; All achievable within the current lean cost structure.
