Aylmer Movers Who Know Every Street

On a map, Aylmer looks straightforward. In reality? Low-hanging mature trees, tight waterfront paths near Lac Deschênes, and the daily commute along Boulevard d’Aylmer demand careful planning. Whether you’re near the marina or tucked away in Lucerne, we protect your property and route the truck perfectly.

Moving in Aylmer — what you should know

Aylmer is Gatineau’s western sector, along Lac Deschênes. Vieux-Aylmer and Rue Principale have some of the oldest homes in the region, Lucerne and Deschênes combine mature trees with waterfront lots, and newer subdivisions keep growing toward the north and west.

We regularly work in areas like Lucerne, Deschênes, Lakeland and Wychwood — places where local familiarity matters when selecting the right truck access point, respecting building rules, and timing your departure.

In Quebec many leases end on June 30, so trucks and elevators around July 1 book up weeks in advance. The rest of the year, month-ends and winter need the most planning.

The Champlain Bridge, Aylmer’s link to Ottawa

For Aylmer, the Champlain Bridge is the most direct way into Ottawa’s west end — Westboro, Kanata, Nepean. It is also a single crossing that backs up at rush hour in the direction of the commute. We cross outside those windows whenever we can, since travel time between the two addresses is part of the billed time.

Heritage homes and waterfront lots

Older houses in Vieux-Aylmer often have steep stairs, narrow doorways and floors worth protecting, so we lay floor runners and wrap banisters before moving anything. Near the water, driveways can be long and the truck may have to stay on the street; tell us when you book so we can plan the carry and the crew size.

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

It was a great experience. Everything was on time, and the movers were very professional. They handled our large furniture well and were careful with everything. Overall, very happy with the service and would definitely recommend them!

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

Aylmer-specific moving tips

Tree-lined Aylmer streets can limit high truck clearance, so note low branches or narrow curb approaches before scheduling a large truck.

Waterfront homes near Lac Deschênes and marina pockets may have tighter access, stone landscaping, or longer carries from the street.

Boulevard d’Aylmer and the Champlain Bridge corridor slow quickly during Ottawa commute hours, making mid-morning starts a smart option for cross-river moves.
