We moved from Ottawa to Vancouver Island… Scott came to the house to give us an estimate and organized the move from the office… All items arrived in good condition, and the final cost was below estimate.

“My wife and I recently moved from Montreal to Carnduff, Saskatchewan. We hired Cassidy’s Transfer and Storage to be our brokers. Scott Myers with Cassidy’s arranged the entire move. Scott was there every step of the way, always patient and willing to assist. Everything went perfectly. I would highly recommend Cassidy’s to anybody needing to move their household and want a smooth experience at a reasonable price.”
