Moving with Purpose, Care, and Community
Fresh Till Death isn’t your average moving company. We’re a cooperative rooted in compassion, built by and for the people of Vancouver and the Lower Mainland. Our mission is to provide ethical, tenant-focused moving and maintenance services that prioritize care over profit. Whether you’re a tenant, a support organization, or a social housing provider, we’re here to support you with integrity and empathy.
Our Vision
At FreshTD, we envision a world where housing is treated as a fundamental human right, not a commodity. Our goal is to create a radically different business environment—one where the well-being of tenants takes precedence over the pursuit of profit. By operating as a cooperative with horizontal governance, we are reshaping what it means to do business, centering equity, compassion, and community care.
Our Mission
FreshTD is dedicated to:
- Supporting Tenants in Need: Providing professional, compassionate moving and maintenance services to tenants, particularly those in social housing or facing precarious housing situations.
- Redefining Business: Challenging traditional profit-driven structures with a cooperative model that uplifts everyone involved—clients, workers, and communities.
- Building Community Wealth: Ensuring that every step we take serves to strengthen the health and well-being of our neighborhoods.
Our Values
- Housing is a Right: We believe that everyone deserves a safe and stable home. Our work is part of a broader fight for housing justice.
- Compassion and Care: We approach every task with empathy, always keeping the needs of tenants and communities at the forefront.
- Anti-Capitalism and Anti-Colonialism: We reject exploitative systems and work to build relationships based on mutual respect, fairness, and decolonial principles.
- Equity in Pay and Power: By structuring our cooperative equitably, we ensure fair wages and empower our members to lead balanced, fulfilling lives.
- Community First: FreshTD exists not to enrich individuals, but to cultivate collective health and wealth for all.
Para todos todo, para nosotros nada. (Everything for everyone, nothing for us.)

How We’re Different
Fresh Till Death was founded on principles of anti-work and anti-exploitation. We believe in creating a sustainable and supportive workplace that values time away from work just as much as the work itself. Our cooperative isn’t about enriching a few—it’s about building a thriving, equitable community.
