First Rate Movers
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 our ability to get the job done 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 $1,000,000 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 guys went the extra mile, asking repeatedly if they could help me as I moved some stuff to my car, or out of my car.
They were both really upbeat, diligent and efficient the whole way through.
Accordingly, I'll be endorsing your company through the Better Business Bureau.
When moving to a new place, packing up your things can be one of the most stressful things to do.
We consider moves to be "local moves" when both the origin and destination are within 100 kilometers of Ottawa's City Hall, based on the fastest route.
The charges for a local move will incorporate a standard hourly charge for travel time at the contracted rate.
Travel time is to cover the cost of getting the crew to the job, refuelling, and returning to the office at the end of the job.
For local moves, the time between the customer's addresses is considered part of the moving time.
We charge a standard travel time of 1-hour for moves beginning and ending within 30 kilometers of Ottawa's City Hall.
We facilitate moves to or from the Greater Ottawa Area within Ontario.
We consider any move that starts or ends more then 100 kilometers from Ottawa's City Hall to be a long-distance move.
Pricing for these moves is based on an hourly rate for loading the contents onto the truck and then offloading at the destination plus a flat rate charge for travel time.
The travel charge is based on the distance between locations and depends on the size of the crew and truck.
This charge covers the cost of getting the crew to the job, travel between locations, fuel, kilometers, hotel stays, meal allowances and returning to the office at the end of the job.
The most expensive part of any long distance move is usually the cost of travel for the moving crew.
The travel cost is the portion of the overall moving cost that pays for the movers, truck, fuel, motel, downtime, and any other costs that the moving company may incur during the trip.
Different moving companies have different ways of passing on this cost to the customer.
With most small and medium-sized local moving companies, the customer will be charged a flat rate or by the hour for 'travel time'.
First Rate Movers schedules weekly trips to the greater Toronto area.
These include destinations in Mississauga, Etobicoke, North York, Scarborough and many other locations.
We also deliver to Brockville, Kingston, Belleville, Oshawa, Ajax, Pickering and other towns along the 401 corridor to Toronto.
If you are planning to move from Toronto to Ottawa or anywhere in the GTA to Ottawa, you can realize substantial savings by co-ordinating your move through First Rate Movers on a truck returning from one of these trips.
