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.

Your crew was wonderful! Our client was not ready and we scrambled to get things pulled together. Jesse and Sean were amazing; very professional, flexible, positive and excellent with the people we support.

End-of-November 2016, my company announced me I had to move in a couple of week from Ottawa to Kitchener (company reorganization). My experience with First Rate Movers was excellent from the first contact, estimate, booking and realization. I was first in touch with **** (manager) – good communication and focused on finding the best solution (price & date). During the two moving days, the two guys in charge of the move out move-in (***** and ****) were great and very professional (on time, hard worker, organized, polite). To conclude, my first experience with First Rate Movers was excellent. Great team.
I was very pleased with the level of service provided by First Rate Movers. The two-man moving crew arrived on time and worked efficiently to get the job done in a timely manner. Furniture was wrapped or secured appropriately and absolutely no damage was done. Movers were kind enough to ask me where items should be placed in the new home and they took the time to put items back together that were taken apart for the move. The price was very reasonable (I called over half a dozen companies) and the staff were professional and courteous. I highly recommend First Rate Movers.
I contacted First Rate Movers after reading reviews on this site and elsewhere. I knew I HAD to deal with this company and I am sure glad I did. I have moved a number of times, including long distances, and this has been the BEST experience ever, from start to finish. Everything was done in an extremely professional manner, by an extremely professional crew. I followed their moving tips/instructions, which helped the team shave an entire hour off the estimate I was given. I would have NO HESITATION whatsoever recommending First Rate Movers and would use them again at the drop of a hat. Anyone needing moving services, should look no further and use this company.
