Long-distance experience, departing from Ottawa and Gatineau

Relocating to a new city—or even a new province—is a massive undertaking. It demands bulletproof logistics. Whether you’re heading from Gatineau to Montreal, Quebec City, Toronto, or anywhere else, an intercity move is way more than just loading up a truck. It’s about guaranteeing that every single item you own crosses hundreds of kilometers safely, without giving you a headache.

At UpMove, we wipe out the stress of long-haul moves. We know the road. We understand the quirky interprovincial regulations, the weather shifts, and the route planning. Our crew takes the wheel—handling the meticulous packing in Outaouais to the careful unloading in your new hometown—so you can focus on simply settling in.

A successful intercity relocation comes down to careful preparation and steady execution. It doesn’t matter if it’s the Gatineau-Montreal corridor, a drive to Quebec City, or a big leap over to Toronto. Securing your valuables against highway vibrations and unpredictable road conditions is our absolute focus. We lock things down tight.

What sets us apart:

  • Exclusive truck: Your belongings are never mixed with those of other clients.
  • Direct trip: No transferring from one truck to another in transit warehouses.
  • Consistent team: The team that loads your furniture in Ottawa-Gatineau is the same one that will welcome you at your destination, so one team stays accountable from start to finish.

Direct and Dedicated Transport

Your load travels alone in our truck. No unexpected stops, no intermediate storage: straight from your old door to your new one.

Comprehensive and Detailed Inventory

Each box and piece of furniture is meticulously listed before departure, ensuring that everything loaded in Ottawa-Gatineau arrives at the destination.

Maximum Protection for Transit

Reinforced use of thick padded blankets, industrial tie-down straps, and custom covers to counteract the vibrations of the long road.

Optimized Logistics and Routes

Strategic planning based on traffic, weather, and the specifics of your destination (urban parking regulations in Montreal or Toronto).

How it works

1

Detailed Inventory and Logistical Planning

We precisely assess the volume to be transported, determine the best route, and proceed with a systematic labeling and inventory of all your items so every item is tracked.

2

Anti-Vibration Loading and Securing

Aware of the hundreds of kilometers to cover, our experts build a solid scaffolding inside the truck. Each piece of furniture is protected by thick blankets and securely strapped down.

3

Direct Delivery and Controlled Unloading

Our experienced drivers transport your belongings without detours. Upon arrival, we unload according to your exact instructions, validating the inventory with you for total peace of mind.

Oleg, Vladimir & Radion are fantastic! I couldn't be happier with the job they did! They were so friendly, professional & efficient! I hired them to move my business from an hour outside of Ottawa into the city. Oleg met me ahead of time and viewed both places & what I was moving. I had several heavy appliances to be moved, and I was worried about them fitting in my new location. Oleg was very reassuring that they would put every effort into getting them in & put me at ease immediately. They had to carry in the fridges & freezers & flip them around to stand them up under a low ceiling. They moved a couch up a flight of stairs & it was heavy and not an easy fit. They were so friendly while they worked and had great senses if humour! They took a lot of care with everything they moved & the space. They worked quickly & efficiently, disassembled items, removed door hinges, and they put everything where I wanted. It was the easiest and least stressful move I've ever gone through & I can't recommend them enough!

I hired Ottawa Best Movers (UpMove Ottawa) last month to help me move into my first home, and I couldn’t have been happier with the service. Since I had never hired professional movers before, I was feeling a little anxious about the process and having strangers handle my furniture and personal belongings. However, Oleg and Milan were both friendly, hardworking, respectful, and trustworthy. They immediately made me feel comfortable and reassured throughout the experience. Moving into my first home was a very important milestone for me, and I truly appreciated how positive and stress-free they made the experience. It was a pleasure having Oleg and Milan as my movers, and I have absolutely no complaints. I would highly recommend Ottawa Best Movers to anyone looking for a reliable and professional moving company. Laura K

Oleg and his team were exceptional for my move from Ottawa to Montreal! I will absolutely be using them again. They showed up on time, worked incredibly efficiently, and handled my items with care. They even went the extra mile and fixed a drawer for me before packing it on the truck. They were very accommodating when I had an address update and made the day as stress free as one could expect a move to be. Their “we got this” attitude really helped to keep me at ease throughout the day. Thank you so much for the awesome experience!

UpMove led by Oleg is an excellent business. The team who helped us really cared about our belongings and were very efficient. They worked so hard to get the truck to fit for the load out and delivered early the next day as we moved cities. This team are pros and I would highly recommend to anyone moving within city and to a different city. Very clear pricing model with great communication for the clients. Thank you rod, Tanya, Nadia, old, Alex and Andrew for all your help. You guys are amazing

I am very pleased to hire the UpMove who helped me with moving. Moving can be very stressful, but not so much if you hired the right person. I’d like to recognize the team of Oleg, Radion & Nikita. They were professional, efficient, carefully wrapped my furnitures and move my upright piano with skillful hands. The price is very reasonable, given that it also included my heavy piano move. They were also very skillful at stacking the furnitures so that everything fits into the storage unit - this is a big save on my end. I would highly recommend UpMove and the team of Oleg Radion Nikita :)!

Milan and Yaroslav were really great guys. Showed up on time, wrapped everything fragile, and worked efficiently. The move took longer than expected but they did not complain and continued working. Nothing got damaged and everything was delivered perfectly. They were also fun to chat with and were great communicators. I’d hire Milan and Yaroslav again.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

No, never. Unlike the big van lines that bundle shipments, we run a direct, exclusive service. The furniture we load up in Ottawa-Gatineau stays locked in that exact same truck. Driven by the exact same team. It doesn't move until it hits your new address.

We keep our long-distance and intercity pricing strictly flat-rate. Total transparency. We calculate it based on the pure volume of your stuff (which dictates the truck size) and the exact mileage between your two doors. No hidden weighing fees.

Long-distance moves are a flat rate based on volume and distance. Starting prices for two movers and a truck: Kingston from $1,400, Montreal from $1,500, Toronto from $2,500 and Quebec City from $2,980. Your quote is confirmed after we review your inventory.
