South Shore · Montreal · anywhere in Quebec and Ontario

Your move at a fixed price, in writing before moving day.

The price we give you is the price you pay — even if it takes two extra hours. Our movers are our employees, not subcontractors, and every box is inventoried.

From a small apartment to a three-story cottage. Team of 2 to 5 movers depending on volume, furniture wrapped in blankets, floors and door frames protected.

Commercial

Offices · businesses · clinics

Evening or weekend moves so you don't lose a day of operation. Labeling by workstation, full reassembly before opening.

Dedicated truck, one team from start to finish: your belongings never change trucks. Fixed delivery date, not a five-day window.

06

Beds, bed frames, tables, bookcases, screw-together desks. Hardware bagged and labeled per piece of furniture — never a mystery screw bag.

Upright piano, safe, washer-dryer, stove, emptied aquarium, treadmill. Dedicated lifting equipment and straps, fees announced in advance.

08

Storage

Heated · monitored

The great national cardboard box day

On July 1st, there isn't a truck left. Anywhere.

Book between February and April. By mid-May, our six trucks are booked for July 1st, and this isn't sales pressure: it's been like this every year since 1998.
Peak rate from June 25 to July 3 — announced in the quote, never added afterward. A $200 deposit confirms the date, refundable up to 30 days before.
Don't have a choice of date? We keep two teams in reserve for July 1st emergencies. Call: sometimes it works out.
Move on June 29 or July 4 if you can: normal rate, a fresh crew, and you won't spend the day in traffic.

Your two fears,

settled in black and white

The price that balloons and the belongings that break. We built our rules around those two fears.

Fixed price guaranteed in writing: if the move takes longer than planned, that's our problem, not your bill.
Contract signed before moving day, with the date, addresses, team, what's included and excluded.
Insured business: $2M in liability coverage, up-to-date CNESST certificate, provided on request.
Basic protection included: $0.60 per pound per item, as required by law. A 40 lb TV = $24.
Optional replacement-value protection: $95 for $25,000 of coverage, $250 deductible. We explain it without pushing it.
Movers employed year-round, never subcontractors or day laborers hired the night before.
Criminal background check for every employee, renewed every three years.
Trucks marked with our name, uniformed team, numbered inventory signed at pickup and delivery.
The quote, in three formats
By phone · 10 minutes

For a 1 or 2-bedroom with no unusual furniture. Firm price given by the end of the call.

By video call · 20 minutes

You walk us through your home with your phone. The most accurate option, without anyone coming to your place.

In-home visit · free

For houses, large volumes and offices. By appointment, Monday to Saturday.

Have this on hand

Number of rooms · floors at both addresses · elevator (reserved or not) · distance between parking and the door · large items (piano, washer, safe, aquarium) · desired date and backup date.

Prepare for your move

To do in the two weeks before

Box 01
Number and label the room

A number and the destination room's name on three sides of the box. Keep a list: box 14 = kitchen, dishes.

Box 02
Write on the top AND the sides

Stacked in the truck, only the side faces are visible. It's the difference between 20 minutes and two hours when unpacking.

Box 03
Heavy in small, light in large

Books and tools in small boxes, pillows and coats in large ones. Maximum 15 kg per box: nobody wants to get hurt.

Box 04
Plates go vertical

Wrapped one by one in paper and stored on their edge, like records. They break much less than lying flat.

Box 05
Empty drawers and filing cabinets

A full piece of furniture is one that bends or opens on the stairs. Light dressers can stay filled, we'll tell you which.

Box 06
Unplug the fridge 24 h before

Defrost, empty the water, leave the door open to avoid odors. Same for the freezer.

Box 07
Keep your documents with you

Passports, notarized deeds, jewelry, medications, chargers, toilet paper and a toolkit: a box you carry yourself.

Box 08
Reserve the elevator and parking

Reserve the elevator with the building manager and ask the city for a street reservation if needed. Every meter less saves us time.
