With strong family values and community spirit - POCO Building Supplies is built on a foundation of hard work and honest pricing. Our service excellence is 100 years in the making. In 1921, Port Coquitlam resident Harry Galer founded the Port Coquitlam Transfer Company to meet the growing transportation demands of Port Coquitlam residents.
In fact, he shuttered his shoe store soon after realizing that the demand for hauling coal and lumber in his truck, would probably earn him more money than selling shoes. Harry's son John purchased the company in 1947 and then in 1967 he moved the business to its current location on Mary Hill Road.

I was looking at an item in the store, it was already broken you can clearly see that. They tried to get me to pay for it and say it was my fault. I didn't even touch it! When I said you can check on camera he threaten to call the police. When my mom was about to pay for $70 I just walked up to her and said, "don't buy nothing here" he threatens to call the police on me again. We walked out and didn't buy anything, screw this owner at this store! Terrible service, go to another location if you can.
