Local Moving
Moving within Smiths Falls, or over to Perth, Merrickville, Montague, Lombardy, or Kemptville? A short hop gets the same planning as a cross-country haul, and the same bonded, career crews.
Leaving Smiths Falls for another province or another country? As a United Van Lines partner, we give your long-distance move a coordinated plan and a single point of contact.
Closing dates rarely line up neatly. Our storage containers sit on your driveway so you can load at your own pace, or we’ll keep your belongings at our secure yard until the new place is ready.
Packing Services
Rather not wrap 20 boxes of dishes yourself? Our packers bring the cartons, paper, and tape, properly protect fragile items, and label every box so unpacking isn’t a guessing game.

The Cassidy’s Process: How It Works

  1. Get a Quote. Contact us for a quote, and a moving consultant will walk through your dates, your inventory, and cover any concerns you have about the process. You’ll receive a clear, written quote at this step.
  2. We Pack & Load. Our bonded team arrives with their truck and equipment: blankets, runners, dollies, and straps. They wrap and load everything in a specific order to speed up unloading.
  3. Welcome Home. We unload your items, placing your furniture where you want it, and reassemble anything we took apart.

FAQs

How do your crews handle moving into older homes in downtown Smiths Falls?

Carefully, with a plan in place before the truck arrives. Older homes near the downtown core often have narrow staircases, tight landings, and doorways built for smaller furniture. We measure the awkward pieces against the actual openings, pad banisters and doorframes, and lay runners over the floors. If a sofa won’t make the turn at the top of the stairs, we’ll get creative.

Is a move from Ottawa to Smiths Falls considered a local or long-distance move?

Local. Smiths Falls sits roughly 75 kilometres from Ottawa, inside the 161-kilometre (100-mile) radius we treat as a local move, so it’s billed at our hourly rate rather than by weight and distance. Rest assured, your quote will have all the details.

Can you move heavy specialty items, like safes or pianos, to our new Smiths Falls home?

Yes. A piano, safe, or heavy shop machinery usually calls for four movers and a truck, which raises the hourly rate for that job. There’s no separate heavy-item surcharge; you’re paying for the people it takes to do it safely.

The Local Advantage: Why Experience Matters

A move in Smiths Falls isn’t the same as a move in Ottawa. The truck has fewer places to sit, the parking bylaws are stricter than people expect, and older buildings ask more of a crew.

Here’s what we sort out before moving day:

Moving Truck Parking Downtown

The Town’s winter parking restrictions run November 15 to March 31, and start sooner if snow or freezing rain arrives early. During this time, there’s no parking on any street or Town-owned lot between midnight and 7:00 a.m.

Winter Parking Restrictions

The Town’s winter parking restrictions run November 15 to March 31, and start sooner if snow or freezing rain arrives early. During this time, there’s no parking on any street or Town-owned lot between midnight and 7:00 a.m.

Elevator & Loading Access Bookings

Apartment and condo buildings usually require the elevator and loading area to be booked through the property manager for a fixed window. Send us that window, and we’ll schedule the crew around it.
