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.
My wife & I, wish to sincerely thank you for turning around our most horrific day. It was June 30th, 2006 when the moving company originally scheduled to move us, NEVER showed up. We were hopelessly trying to find a moving company that would be willing to move us on such short notice. With no 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, *****
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.
We had First Rate Movers move us from our apartment to our house. The experience was really great. There was a team of 3; they arrived on time, were friendly and worked hard all day. They took their time to wrap and prep out furniture to ensure it transferred without any problems. They finished within the estimated time. We had a great move and I want to thank **** and the moving crew for making our move day easy and stress free! We would hire them again in a heartbeat!
