Why Get Movers Montreal QC is Voted as the Best Moving Company in Montreal ?
Get Movers Montreal QC has been voted as the best moving company in Montreal due to a combination of transparent affordable pricing, high professional standards, and verified customer satisfaction. It was officially recognized as Montreal’s Best Moving Company in 2025 and has received the Consumer Choice Award.
Most Montreal customers don’t start by looking for the cheapest movers — they start by trying to avoid problems.

That’s why our Montreal moving process is built around clear pricing, preparation, and accountability, so customers know exactly what to expect before move day begins. We believe that "cheaping out on movers is one of the stupidest things you can do," and our service reflects this commitment to quality.

How to Choose a Montreal Mover in 2026 ?
Choosing a reliable moving company in 2026 requires a strategic approach that combines verifying local credentials, ensuring total pricing transparency, and understanding Montreal's specific logistical hurdles. To ensure a stress-free experience, follow these six critical steps:
Licensing and Insurance
Ensure the mover is licensed to operate in Montreal and carries a valid Certificate of Insurance (COI) covering both cargo and general liability. Get Movers Montreal QC exceeds this by providing a "Guaranteed Protection" policy that includes workers’ compensation.
Professional Affiliations
Look for members of the Canadian Association of Movers (CAM), which requires at least two years in business and strict adherence to service standards. Choosing an established firm with over 12 years of experience and a 2025 Consumer Choice Award minimizes your risk.
Physical Location
Avoid "virtual-only" operations; verify that the company has a local warehouse and branded trucks. Having a physical presence at 5455 Av. de Gaspé Suite #710, Montreal, Quebec H2T 3B3 ensures we are a legitimate local entity, distinguishing us from "little guys that simply go rent a U Haul."
Walkthroughs
For an accurate 2026 estimate, professional movers should offer video or in-person walkthroughs to assess furniture volume and access challenges like steep stairs or narrow hallways.
Binding Not-to-Exceed Quotes
Insist On Written, itemized estimate that includes a Binding Not-to-Exceed Quote, which acts as a guaranteed price cap. This protects you from "bait-and-switch" pricing and "flat-rate games".
Identify Hidden Fees
Clarify if the quote includes fuel surcharges, floor runners, and moving blankets. Reputable companies like Get Movers include these essential protection tools at no extra charge, and a "flatfeeforfuel50.00" for complete clarity.
Neighborhood Specialization
A top-tier mover must understand the nuances of Montreal’s quadrants, such as strict elevator bookings in Ville-Marie, loading dock coordination in the Downtown Core, and Plateau parking & permit navigation.
Winter Moving Experts
Montreal’s weather can change instantly due to sudden cold snaps or extreme cold. Ensure your movers are winter experts prepared for -20°C conditions with specialized equipment to protect your home from snow and salt.
Direct Employees Only
Confirm the company uses its own trained, background-checked staff rather than temporary day labor or subcontractors. Full-time teams provide more consistent service and safer handling of fragile items.
Specialized Equipment
Ensure the crew arrives with specialized gear like banister padding, floor runners, and thick moving blankets to navigate diverse housing types, from historic Plateau apartments to modern urban infills
Booking Strategy
If your schedule is flexible, booking on a Tuesday, Wednesday, or Thursday can often lead to lower rates or mid-week discounts.
Travel and Outskirt Fees
Always ask about travel time charges for surrounding areas like Laval or Longueuil, as these can impact the final cost. This also addresses concerns like "mover in Laval driving out to Brossard is going to charge you driving time."
What Types of Moves Do We Handle in Montreal?
Montreal moves aren’t one-size-fits-all. From small apartment relocations to full house moves and business transitions, our Montreal moving teams handle a wide range of move types with the same planning, care, and pricing transparency.

We are "willing to write a clear estimate up front."
