Cactus Moving provides senior moving in Ottawa for relocations to smaller homes, condos, and retirement residences. It is the same professional moving service as any other move, with the same pace and the same care, so costs stay under control. Our pricing is transparent with no hidden fees, and we do not charge travel time, mileage, or insurance. For local moves, you can reserve a date without a deposit. Our crews bring proven experience from multiple Canadian cities, and we apply that process to Ottawa moves where timing and coordination matter.
Lock in your preferred moving day early at no cost. We hold your date while you finalize keys, elevator bookings, and other details, so prime weekends and month-end slots do not slip away. Change or confirm later without penalty.






You will know the plan before moving day, including access details, elevator rules, and where key items should land in the new place. We keep the move efficient, but we never skip protection steps. Learn how we structure our moving process.
We start with a planning call to confirm addresses, move size, access details, and any special items. Then we build an inventory and flag what needs extra handling.
Your quote includes crew size, truck plan, hourly rate, estimated hours, included protections, and an arrival window. Within Ottawa, we do not add travel time, mileage, or insurance charges, so pricing is easy to compare.
If you request packing, we can pack by room and label boxes for fast unloading. We can also focus on fragile items and essentials first if you have a tight timeline.
When the moving day comes our crews come on time and fully prepared. We protect floors, doors, railings, and elevators before loading begins (and before unloading begins). All furniture is wrapped in clean moving blankets and handled efficiently even if packing was not included. We load, secure, and safely transport your belongings to a new home.
After unloading, we do a walkthrough with you to confirm placement room by room. Boxes are stacked by label, and we adjust furniture placement before we finish.
For local senior moves in Ottawa, you do not need a deposit to book. Payment is due after the job is complete, and the invoice matches the agreed rate and time.
Once the move is finished, you receive a small cactus gift as a simple thank you.
If we earned it, a short review helps other Ottawa families choose confidently. Your feedback also helps us improve our training and process.
Request a quote online and share your move date, pickup and drop off access, and what must be moved first. We confirm availability, send a clear quote, and reserve your move without a deposit for local jobs.

Overnight senior moving can help in Ottawa when daytime parking is limited or when you need to work around building schedules. Quieter streets can reduce delays and make loading faster. This option depends on availability and any building rules.

Fast moves still need a process. Our movers complete structured training before they work on jobs, and refreshers cover protection, safe lifting, and truck loading. Because we operate in multiple cities, we keep improving what works, then bring that experience into Ottawa.
