Question 1

How much do movers cost in Ottawa?

Accepted Answer

Most local moves are billed hourly. TriServices Moving & Delivery uses a clear hourly rate based on truck size and crew, plus a one-hour travel-time fee. After the three-hour minimum, billing continues in 30-minute increments so you only pay for the time you use.

Question 2

What is the travel-time fee?

Accepted Answer

The travel-time fee is a flat, one-hour charge that covers driving from our Ottawa office to your pickup and back after the move. It does not include the drive between pickup and delivery, which is billed at the regular hourly rate.

Question 3

How long will my move take?

Accepted Answer

Typical averages: Studio 2–3 hrs, 1-Bedroom 3–5 hrs, 2-Bedroom 4–6 hrs, 3-Bedroom 5–8 hrs. Elevators, stairs, walking distance to the truck, and packing readiness can change the total time. We provide a custom estimate before your move.

Question 4

Do you provide packing services and materials?

Accepted Answer

Yes. We wrap and protect furniture, mattresses, and large items with blankets and shrink wrap at no extra cost for standard moves. Full packing services are available the day before your move and are billed at our hourly rate plus packing materials.

Yes. TriServices Moving & Delivery is CVOR-registered and fully insured. We carry commercial liability insurance and WSIB coverage. Proof of coverage is available on request.
