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.
Wendy and I just wanted to pass along a huge heaping of appreciation to you for our move on Friday. We obviously completely underestimated our junk and you guys really came through for us. We will certainly be recommending 1st Rate at every opportunity.

I was very pleased with the service I received from First Rate movers. Very quick response to emails and phone calls. ***, **** and **** were very friendly and went above and beyond their duties. I have moved a number of times, including overseas, and this has been a very positive experience from start to finish. Everything was done in an extremely professional manner, by an extremely professional crew. I highly recommend their services.
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, *****
Matt G**** is forthright, professional, and a pleasure to deal with. The crew arrived on time, clean, approachable, friendly. they took an inventory and went straight to work. I’ve never seen anything like it…organized, a system in place, and I had to step out of the way and leave it all in their hands. I like to keep control but I happily released it all to them and they were simply amazing. I totally recommend this company.
