Labour-Only Moving Help in Ottawa
Sometimes you've got the truck or the pod — you just need strong, experienced hands. Our labour-only service gives you a trained crew for loading, unloading or moving heavy items within your home.
It's the same careful crew and the same hourly pricing as a local move, just without the truck. Great for rental trucks, moving containers, rearranging rooms or loading a storage unit.

FAQ
Labour-Only Help questions
Every move is different. Local moves are billed by the hour, with a 2-hour minimum. Long-distance moves are billed by time too, with one quote for the whole trip that covers the truck and fuel. Every charge is on your quote before you book. Tell us about your move and we'll call you back within 24 hours with a personal quote.
There is no separate stairs or long-carry charge. Tell us your floor and elevator access in the quote form and we'll plan for it when we call you back with your personal quote.
The more notice the better, but we'll always try to fit in shorter timelines. Request a quote online any time and we'll confirm your date when we call you back.
