  • Crest: A mural crown, emblematic of Port Moody's designation as a city, and above that is a band-tailed pigeon, a rare local bird.
  • Shield:
    • Charges: Trees for the forest industry, tracks for the railway, and a clipper ship for the early port.
  • Mount: A fir tree forest and water suggesting the natural setting of the city.
