Cactus Moving was founded in 2021 and operates with experienced teams across Canada. In Ottawa, our movers are supervised by team leaders with 10 to 15+ years of hands-on moving experience. We hire career movers, drivers, and planners who work together on a daily basis. Clear processes, proper training, and a strong work culture help our teams stay consistent, focused, and reliable on every move.
Fill the short form with your move date, move type, and contact info. We will call you back to gather the rest and provide with a transparent estimate and plan.
Before you choose a mover, it helps to look at more than the price. Below are the key advantages customers in Ottawa ask about most.
Our prices are hourly and easy to understand. Within Ottawa, there is no charge for travel time, mileage, or insurance. You pay only for the time our movers work, with all details confirmed before the move begins.
We move during the day and at night. This flexibility helps avoid traffic, parking limits, and building restrictions, and allows moves to happen with less disruption.
We do not operate in one market only. Our teams work across multiple Canadian cities and handle long distance and cross-border moves. This experience helps us plan better, avoid common issues, and handle complex relocations with confidence.
Every move is handled by insured and bonded professionals who follow clear procedures. This structure protects your belongings and ensures consistent service from start to finish.
The prices below show our hourly rates based on a typical crew size and truck. Your final moving cost depends on how many hours our movers work on your move. We use transparent pricing. All rates and details are confirmed before the move starts, so you always know what you are paying for. This approach helps us deliver consistent quality on every job.

Short-notice moving help for situations when time is limited.
Careful packing that protects items and helps the move stay on track.

Sometimes a night move works well for condos, offices, and houses where daytime access is limited. Our crews are available after hours and can handle packing, and furniture prep before the truck arrives in the morning. This allows the move to start on time and reduces disruption to your building or neighbourhood. Contact us during regular business hours (please) to schedule a night move that fits your timeline.
