Oxygen thief

This company are exploiters, self center, Their behavior would be called 'self-serving.

I booked them 2 weeks ahead and request a move include packing and load, unloading at new residence, I was told boxes and tapes is provided .

Here’s what happened they showed up no boxes, no tape and had to go to home hardware to buy materials I observed the driver packing pictures frame one agains another stack up in the box with no padding or materials between when I mentioned to him his reply when it’s tight nothing move, the were supposed to start at 9 am they didn’t start till 10:00 the driver was always on his phone and telling the other guy what to do I had 80 percent of my items packed it took them 4 hours to load and they packed 3 boxes when came time to unload the driver stayed in the truck majority of the time and talking to bystander and also the talking to the ambulance people totally lazy, it took them 3 hours to unload he was just milking me taking every pennies he could get.

When bill came and mentioned that he was late he mentioned that is written in the contract that they’re not responsible if late due to traffic he wouldn’t let me talk and kept arguing with me totally disrespectful. The next day I got called by the cleaning crew to let me know that a cupboard was left with many of my items.people need to know about them.

I was charge $47.83 for 5 boxes, paper, and tapes, they used 3 boxes and hardly used any packing paper, they used all my tape that I had.

Pictures include lamps damages packing paper remaining almost full.

I was bill 7 hours plus boxes and tape UNBELIEVABLE and if I didn’t pay they were going to keep my furniture remaining in the truck.

They will use any excuse you can think of bunch of oxygen thief.

They need to lose their license in order to stop stealing from customers.

Your truly.

Local move within Ottawa, ON

Ottawa 1 mover barely spoke English. The other spoke none.

Absolutely abhorrent! Deliberately destroyed everything because I would not pay what the 2 movers charged above my contract quote.

In Canada, you must pass grade 5 English to get a work permit. When I commented on something (like smoking inside the truck with my belongings) the one guy said. "no understand".

The accountant sided with the movers and they refused to deliver my goods until she found out I had a contract (Megan).

The guy told me they (2guys) could not get the sofa thru my door. I, a 5'3" woman, did it myself.

The movers yelled at me in their language, stood over me as they yelled and intimidated me. I went to get them coffee, despite this, and they threw/unpacked the truck in the few minutes it took me. I could not get in the house or on the porch and bins and boxes were shattered. It was pouring rain and over 1/2 my stuff was outside.

No exaggerations, no vile language except by movers.

We can guarantee that our employees would not deliberately destroy everything because a client did not pay. I'm sorry to say but this review is a big exaggeration. In Canada you do not have to pass grade 5 english in order to get a work permit, just because someone does not speak proper english does not mean that they cannot get a job.

Great Experience

From the quotes that I got, it was clear that O Canada Movers had offered me the best deal. So, I booked the move with them. They did deliver the best possible service during packing, loading, moving, and unloading. We did not even lift a finger. They knew exactly how to get the job done. It was a delightful experience moving with O Canada Movers. Will highly recommend using them for everyone!

Scammers and extortionists

They ripped me off bigtime. The final price was 10 times the quoted amount. They only tell the final price after its loaded and your property is held hostage. They don't protect any property with moving blankets. They don't even use straps to move appliances, just dollies that smash holes into walls and scratch the appliances. They don't apologize for anything. Customer service doesn't return calls. Avoid this company at all costs.

We at O Canada Movers use government scales to weigh every clients items. It usually comes as a surprise to our customers when the weight is more than they think it was originally because of what the client thinks the items usually weigh.

Long-distance move from Oshawa, ON to Fredericton, NB

Over $750 extra charges - AVOID!

Got a price per pound for a move to New Brunswick.

They gave me an estimate less than $1000. I ended up paying over $1700. The moving service itself was so so. They used few blankets because I almost beg them to use it. No plastic for my new mattress (they cover it in filthy pads). I asked to talk with a manager to make a complain. Driver told me that he is the owner. Too late to do something about my price. I should have looked better on their site. They don't even have a social address or a warehouse. Operating like a ghost. Thanks god nothing was missing! However, I've been scammed by "O Canada movers".

Move size: Studio Service cost: $1700

Official company response

We at O Canada Movers try our best to make sure our clients have a stress-free or trouble free move however an estimate is just an estimate it does not indicate the final total until after the items are weighed properly at a government scale

Long-distance move from Dorval, QC to Thornhill, ON

Paid a lot of money and got a lot of damaged goods

After giving a highly detailed description of my belongings our initial quote doubled in price. The movers did not give us an estimate before loading our belongings (even though we asked), the mover that spent the most time with us did not speak a word of English. The other mover who did speak English spent the bulk of the time outside. During my initial phone calls with O Canada Movers I specifically asked if there were any other fees I could expect to pay, and I was clearly told no, that I was informed of all possible fees. This turned out to be a lie. I ended up paying an additional $550 in fees I was not informed of. My damages included a broken dresser (chunk of wood missing from a corner), broken mirror, broken picture frame, several deep scratches on a wood shelf, broken curtain rod, among others. I submitted the damages claim form and have not received a response. I would not recommend O Canada Movers to anyone, they are liars and did a horrible job.

Move size: 1 Bedroom Home Service cost: $2500

Official company response

We at O Canada provide an inventory sheet for all our clients to hand back to us so we can give an estimate however, the estimates are not the actual weights as different items have different weights and we cannot be 100 percent completely sure on it which is why we use government scales to weigh the items.

Company held my belongings hostage

DO NOT CHOOSE THIS MOVING COMPANY!!! They held our stuff hostage after quoting us $1300 and then tried to bill us for $4K after our items were on the truck. Wouldn't deliver them until we paid. They held our stuff for 6 hours after NEVER telling us they don't accept credit cards on the weekend! Trying to arrange a large e-transfer on a Sunday evening is NOT the easiest thing to do! DO NOT CHOOSE THIS MOVING COMPANY!!

Move size: 2 Bedroom Home Service cost: $2800

Official company response

Our company offers packing and wrapping services to our clients if this services is requested prior to the day of the move, as well we will disassemble and reassemble furniture, again this is a service the client needs to make our office aware of prior to the day of the move. Due to the behavior of some bad apples at the time of delivery our company will request payment prior to off loading items, as do other moving companies in the industry.

Terrible

Whatever 5 star reviews that are on here are fake , listen to all the poor ones. This company is a straight up scam. They will quote you a good price that’s supposed to be all in but it’ll end up being double. They showed up 3 hours late , loaded our stuff then disappeared for hours with it all until they got exactly double what the quote was. Complete scam and bunch of con artists. The one guy especially was a complete moron and constantly raging in a non English language and was very rude the whole time

This company is terrible and do not hire them! Read the bad reviews first!!

Company needs to be put out of buisness cause they suck! Don’t waste your money of these clowns!!!!

Broken contract: property held ransom until over double was paid

This is a warning to steer clear of O Canada Movers as they are not a trustworthy company – do not trust O Canada Movers. I am diligent with quotes, accurate information, and respectful communication – so I don’t say this lightly, but you need to know that O Canada Movers play an unethical game.

Despite multiple emails assuring me that other negative reviews were spam and clear confirmation that I would only be charged what was quoted in the email – I was charged over double as a ransom.

On September 28, I was quoted $400 in total for my 500lb move – and was assured this would be the total “all in” cost. I also sent the online listing of the 2 appliances and received a response that I would be charged as promised.

I paid the $200 deposit with multiple email confirmations that the total would be $400.

On delivery day, I was asked for an additional $859.65 (for a total of $1059.65) for a 1000lb move minimum. I talked to customer service and they informed me that management did not care about the email confirmations and that my property would not be delivered – AND that I was still being charged additional costing during the time I was advocating for what I was promised.

Customer service finally got management to agree to honour the 500lb minimum, but not the $400 total I was promised – so they charged an additional $786.20 ransom, making the total $986.20 or over double what I had been quoted/promised and what was confirmed over multiple emails.

I submitted a claim form (as requested by customer service) to have my file reviewed. This was submitted on October 8, 2021 with a request for response by October 15, 2021. It is now over a month later (November 14, 2021) and, despite multiple reminder emails and calls for an update on the review, O Canada Movers have not responded – a clear indication that they do not care about their customers or their promises.

Never showed up and stole my deposit

I hired them to move me in November 12th 2021. They won’t tell you when they’re arriving until the day before (they have until 5:00 to inform you)! They cancelled, truck broke down. They were unconcerned with the situation. Told me to go get my deposit back ….the day before my move! We argued back and forth and they agreed to move me the next day after I worked all day. They were to show up at 5:30pm. They didn’t call me until 7:45pm! Not a text, phone call, nothing. And who knows where they were, how far away they still were, when they called. They left me stranded. And then REFUSED to refund my deposit. They are a fraudulent organization that doesn’t give a crap about you. And they won’t show up and then they will STEAL your money. They are the worst - wish I could have rated they a big FAT ZERO.

Move size: 1 Bedroom Home Service cost: $650

Official company response

Our company always calls our customers the day before the schedule move to inform them of the time or drivers will be there. With everything in life there are unforeseen events that may happen, which was the case with a truck going down in our fleet. Our company made arrangements to deliver immediately the next day. The client had to work which prevent our company from booking the morning appointment slot we set aside for her. When the customer receives her booking confirmation all the information regarding the deposit. Our customer has not stolen anything from the customer. The customer cancelled the move.
