    Specific Tips for Downtown Ottawa (Centretown) Moves



  • Elevator Bookings: Most Centretown condos (e.g., on Metcalfe, O'Connor, or Gloucester) require you to book the service elevator 2–4 weeks in advance.


  • Parking Permits: If your building doesn't have a loading bay, you may need an "On-Street Parking Permit" from the City of Ottawa to reserve space for the moving truck.


  • Peak Hours: Avoid scheduling your move between 7:30 AM – 9:00 AM and 3:30 PM – 5:30 PM, as downtown traffic and "no stopping" zones are strictly enforced during these times.

Get Movers Ottawa provides all of these professional protections, logistical planning, and parking coordination at an affordable price, ensuring your Downtown Ottawa (Centretown) move remains in your budget.
