Moving FAQs

How Much Should a Ottawa Move Cost?

Does moving cost an arm and a leg? The quick answer is no!

When you work with moving professionals, your move is more affordable, saving you money and time. If you’re moving within Ottawa, there are three types of things that will affect how much it costs to hire movers: storage, packing, and amount of belongings.

Other factors that will affect the cost of your local move include which season it is when you move, the number of movers required for your move, the time it takes and the travel time to your new home. Read our pricing guide for local moves to learn more.

What is Your Service Area?

If you are moving within Ottawamoving to Pembroke or the Ottawa Valley, Cassidy’s offers the best value in local moving. You also get the same great moving professionals that do all our moving. Easy, economical and efficient local moving starts and ends with Cassidy’s. We can do all, some or none of the packing. It’s your choice.

How To Choose a Good Ottawa Moving Company?

You’ve got to ask the right questions when hiring movers. There are many scam movers who aren’t honest about their pricing and might not have the experience to move your belongings safely.

If a moving company requests a large deposit upfront, beware that they may disappear once you pay it. Or, they show up on moving day and demand a surprise fee when your belongings are packed in their truck.

To avoid being scammed, you want to make sure the company is Industry Affiliated with the Canadian Association of Movers (CAM). Next, always check that the moving company is accredited with the better business bureau.

Do You Offer Moving Insurance?

Yes – it’s called valuation protection, and it’s exactly the same as insurance. There are different levels depending on what you need.

Here’s a bit about how it works.

Everything we pack, plus all furniture, is covered. Please note that all fragile furniture must be packed or they travel at your risk. This includes things like dresser mirrors, freestanding mirrors, plate glass table tops and flat screen TVs. Talk to your Cassidy’s representative for the full list.

The full replacement replacement value of anything damaged in the move is covered. If you have any items that are over $5,000 in value they need to have a bill of sale or an official appraisal in order to be covered for the full amount.

Any damage to your home is also covered.

 

The cost of valuation protection depends on the size of your home.

How does Air Miles Work for Moving Services?

When you move with us, you can earn Air Miles for your expenses. Here’s how it works:

  1. Earning Air Miles: You receive 1 Reward Mile for every $30.00 spent before taxes. This applies to both registered and non-registered moves.
  2. Eligibility:
    • Air Miles are not available for government moves.
    • Only Booker-approved Corporate Accounts can earn Air Miles.
