Local move

I required movers to pack a POD and unpack it after it was stored for 3 weeks. Mario was very friendly and accommodating of my situation and I was able to schedule my move with only a few weeks notice. His crew showed up on time, took good care of my belonging and didn’t waste time. There was a concern that everything was not going to fit into my POD, however, it was clear with their expertise that they knew how to safely pack and stack to avoid further expense of another POD. When it came time to unpack the POD they did so with the same care and professionalism. Quality Moving and Packing thank you!!

Moving

Recently we moved from Embrun Ontario to Brockville, Ont. We all know how stressful any move can be. Fortunately for us, we chose, Quality Moving and Packing to handle our move. Prior to providing us with a quote, Mario and Neal visited our apartment to assess the extend of the move and the time that it would take, specially since we had a unique situation, the landlord does not allow the use of the elevator for moving and the stairwell is narrow and difficult to manage. The landlord even inspects the stairwell prior to and after every move and the tenant is charged with all damages. Even the landlord was impressed with Quality Moving and Packing’s care and efficiency.

The preliminary visit, estimate preparation, and detailed advice assisted us greatly in ensuring a worry-free move. The crew arrived on schedule and they were consistently polite, friendly. helpful and efficient the entire time. We appreciated the free mirror/artwork boxes, the wardrobe boxes and the constant communications before our move date.

Thank you, Quality moving and storage.

Amazingly Efficient Move!

I have used this business for 4 moves over the course of the past 8 years. 100% effort and skill level for each of the moves. Staffers were efficient, quiet and got the job done under the timeframe each time. They wrapped everything professionally prior to moving and had the tools required to complete the job safely - not only to my furniture - but for their own safety as well.

Overall, I'm very satisfied with my moves, and will be using Quality Moving & Packing again in the future.

Local Move in Ottawa

I checked out several moving companies in Ottawa, and Quality Moving was not the cheapest but the most professional, knowledgeable and well organized. Well worth the money, you get what you pay for. They provided great service and met all my special needs. Thanks for a great moving experience.

Packing and moving to basement

Be very careful with Quality Packing and Moving. They will make claims that they end up not being able to honour, and if you are not on site controlling them constantly, they will take advantage of you and charge you for extras you don't need or pack what was not agreed, or will refuse to pack what was agreed, all rather arbitrarily depending on what crew they have and what material they brought with them. It seems they especially look for "extras" if they think you can afford it because you live in a "nice" neighbourhood.

We hired this company in early Fall of 2012 to move furniture from our above ground floors to our basement in order to get the house ready for renting. They claimed that items would be wrapped and packed as per international moving requirements. In reality, no furniture was wrapped and the packing was shoddy and borderline incompetent.

I was out of the country at the time of the move and it was only my wife there to supervise these people and they immediately proceeded to take advantage of her. First, they showed up at the wrong house and rudely phoned to complain that no one was opening the door. When they finally found our house, 30 minutes later, there was no apology and almost immediately my wife was was told that the job would be several $100s more than they had estimated, even though nothing had changed in the house between the time of their estimate and the day they arrived for the job.

They then didn't stick to the list of items we agreed to have packed and move; for example they started packing things from the garage even though it was explicitly not on the move list. Then they weren't able to move items they claimed would be movable down the stairwell. They took extended smoke breaks that even my neighbours noticed; and, worst of all, they packed things very poorly. They used the cheapest tape (that thin brown kind that doesn't hold), re-used boxes from previous moves that still had info on them from those moves -- so I had boxes that said both "Tools and "Linen" on them -- and charged me for extra packing material that was not needed, while they didn't even use a stack of 10 brand new boxes that I had in the basement, instead moving these into the storage area unused as if they were part of the move!

Really, just not a sharp group and very difficult to deal with, taking full advantage of being paid hourly to pad the bill. They ended up charging me 40% more for a job that turned out to be done only to 80% of what we agreed. Eventually we agreed on a fee of 60% of their original estimate, but it took 6 months to get there.

Just generally a very unpleasant experience with an exceedingly belligerent and unprofessional group of movers.

If you want to give them a try, make sure you've talked to other movers beforehand. Then ask these people for at least 3 references (it's more difficult to fake 3 references). Chances are they'll never call you back.

moving from Ottawa to Smiths Falls

We hired this company for moving and they did an awesome job! They were careful with our stuff, they worked extra hard to get an oversize couch out of the basement, they never took any breaks unless we offered them something to drink, they were paid by the hour and they worked for it. Both guys moved fast and efficiently and we would definitely recommend them to friends and family. They even took extra precautions to protect our brand new (expensive) dining room set. This is the second time we hired them and we're always well served! Neil, the guy with whom my wife spoke when she made the appointment to move was very kind and went out of his way to get us movers for the day we wanted (the September long weekend) because they were completely booked. That's what you call great customer service!
