History

Established in 1927.

Tippet-​Richardson was founded in 1927 by Basil Tippet and C.A. Richardson. Using a rented warehouse and one van, the new company commenced operation on the highways as an independent operator, moving furniture.

In 1934, the two partners separated, and Basil Tippet bought his partner out. Basil was the major shareholder until 1944, when the Naylor brothers, Russell and Walter, bought in and became vice-​presidents. Russell Naylor had been with Tippet-​Richardson since its inception in the role of Operations Manager.

With Basil’s passing in 1959, the Naylor’s continued to operate and expand Tippet-​Richardson. Today, Tippet-​Richardson has 8 locations across Canada, with two offices in Western Canada; TR Westcan Inc., Calgary and TR Westcan Inc., Vancouver. Brenda Naylor, Walter’s grand-​daughter is the President and CEO of the Calgary and Vancouver locations.
