Cactus Moving provides moving help for students in Ottawa for dorms, apartments, shared houses, and campus-area rentals. We load, transport, and place your items fast, with a plan that fits tight schedules and small spaces. Within Ottawa, 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, which helps when your plans depend on exams, leases, or roommates. Our teams have moved students in several Canadian cities, and we bring that experience to Ottawa so your move stays organized.
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.
Student moves run smoother when the essentials are confirmed early: access, timing, and what must travel first. We keep the plan simple, protect your items, and move with a clear loading order so nothing gets left behind. Furniture and fragile items are wrapped in moving blankets, and TVs travel in our TV boxes unless you provide the original box. You get straightforward updates during the move and a clean finish when everything is placed.
We start with a short planning call to confirm addresses, move size, access details, and your deadline. Then we build a quick inventory and flag any heavy or fragile items.
Your quote includes crew size, truck plan, hourly rate, estimated hours, included protections, and an arrival window. Within Ottawa, we remove common add-ons such as travel time, mileage, and insurance charges, so pricing is easy to compare.
If you request packing, we can pack priority areas first and label boxes for quick unloading. We wrap fragile items with proper materials and keep essentials together so you can unpack faster.
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 and any basic reassembly. Boxes are stacked by label so you can find what you need first.
For local student 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 done, you receive a small cactus gift for your new place as a simple thank you.
If we earned it, a short review helps other students choose confidently. Your feedback also helps us improve how we handle tight timelines.

Overnight student moves can help in Ottawa when daytime parking is limited or when you need to move between classes and work. 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. That training helps keep student moves calm, even on tight timelines.
