Ottawa Moving Company
Local Ottawa Movers Serving Ontario
Bi-Weekly Trips to Toronto & the GTA
Ottawa movers serving eastern Ontario. We are a locally owned and operated moving company that has been providing top-notch moving services since 2003. We are respected as one of Ottawa’s best movers due to our professionalism, attention to detail, concern for customers’ belongings and property, and ability to do the job right. Uniformed First Rate Movers arrive on time, alert, properly equipped and ready to perform to the high standards demanded by our customers.
You can be confident that our crews will be prepared with tools, mattress bags, wardrobe boxes, clean moving blankets, floor runners, and all other equipment necessary to safely protect your belongings and property during your move. Confidence in our ability to provide a first rate professional moving service allows us to include $250,000 of full replacement value insurance in our rates for all full-service moves. This is far superior to the limited coverage “protection policy” offered by other Ottawa moving companies.
The reason our moving company stands out from the crowd is not just our commitment to excellent service but also the pride our movers take in their work. Unlike many Ottawa Movers, we hire only full-time employees – no part-timers or day labour. Our professional Ottawa movers are well paid, WSIB-covered, and receive overtime, holiday pay, vacation pay, and other benefits. This attracts superior movers and results in greater effort from more content and dedicated employees. You can take comfort in knowing that our Ottawa moving company is bonded, a top-rated Honour Roll member of the Better Business Bureau, and is certified by the Canadian Association of Movers.
Whether you want a full-service moving company to handle your relocation or just need movers to help load or unload a rental moving truck or container, you can count on us.
…Don’t settle for less than First Rate Movers.
Just a short note to let you know I was very impressed with your service. Your crew showed up on time did a tremendous job of wrapping packing and moving, and as you no doubt already know we got the hutch around the corner and into the basement. I let your guys know that I Read More…
Procrastination affects us all, especially when it comes to things we don’t love (like preparing for a big move). When there are too many distractions or when you don’t even know where to begin, it can leave you frantic when it’s crunch time and you’re scrambling to get everything ready to go. Instead of letting Read More…
Getting ready for a big move can feel exciting and terrifying all at the same time. Anyone who has ever moved knows just how chaotic and stressful it can be — transitional periods will naturally incite feelings of uneasiness, and having to get all of your affairs sorted before the big day can be very Read More…
Thank you for your fast, friendly and efficient service. Telephone calls, to keep me informed as to arrival times, were very appreciated and helpful. Some of the items moved were both heavy and awkward. *** and **** made the moving of these items look easy. And still kept a smile on their faces. I will be recommending your company to anyone I know who is moving. Cheers, *****
We had an atypical situation, as we needed to move out of our house, store our belongings for 2 months, and then move into our new home. First Rate handled it all with efficiency and a fair price. We had the same team of movers on both ends, and they were a pleasure to work with! Would highly recommend their services for moving and storage.
Thanks to *** and Crew with First Rate Movers. The service was great, the Crew of three were polite, experienced, efficient, and friendly. It was an on time, damage free, clutter free, and stress free move. This is the third time using First Rate and we would not hesitate to use their services again or recommend to others.

If you forget to take the appropriate steps to securely prep them, you could be left with damaged items once you get them into your new home. Here, we’ll show you exactly Read More…
Sometimes, you don’t have the liberty of choosing your moving date — especially if you find your dream home with a 30-day closing date. But if you’re given the option to choose, we recommend that you consider relocating in the fall. There are plenty of perks that come along with this time of year. Let’s Read More…
