Local move within Beaumont, AB

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.

Local move from Toronto, ON to London, ON

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 Welland, ON to Gatineau, QC

Move from Welland ON to Gatineau QC

Wow. Where do I begin. This was my 1st experience with a long distance moving Co and I can tell you that I will NEVER again use their services. The quote I was originally given was way off. I sent pictures of my big pieces and was given an approximate cost of 2700.00 which was more then initially quoted so I emailed them and was told they always exaggerate the quote so not to worry. They quoted me 11500 pounds based on pictures I sent of my big pieces. I thought ok so I budgeted 3000.00 thinking for sure that I had put enough aside for the move. The movers were late but no big deal. They were nice and since one of them had been with the company over 8 years I asked him how many pounds he figured I had. He said he couldn’t tell me until everything was in the truck. That should have been my first clue. Many hours later, he gave me a paper saying I had 18000 pounds and NO he did not have anything to weigh it he said that was based on his professional experience. My stuff is all in the truck so what can i do at this point so I called U-Haul and they did not have any trucks available or I would have gotten the movers to unload my stuff and I would’ve used a U-Haul truck instead. So my hands were tied at this point as my house was sold and my stuff had to be out and I was starting a new job the Monday. So my end bill ended up costing 6375.00. This is outrageous and they did not weigh anything. There was no way I had that much in there. Now you think that’s it? No, of course not. There was a mix up in my delivery date but no big deal. They showed up on the Saturday after 6pm and OMG what a nightmare. They damaged my stairs, the wanted to dump everything I. My living room because I was their 5th house that day and they were tired. I said hum no. You are suppose to bring things where I want them. So they started to unload the truck which they parked right on the grass without asking and of course damaged my front lawn. Then they dropped a big plastic bin which opened and scattered all over the place and the guy started laughing and said awe nothing broke. Of course he didn’t look at my stairs which they damaged. Then they started to bring all my outdoor stuff in so I said hey wait, that goes outside in the shed only to be told nope, everything comes in here. Are you kidding me?? Are you serious?? They unloaded my snowblower INTO MY LIVING-ROOM. Who the hell does that? By then I was ready to cry I was so disgusted with the whole experience. I told them to bring the snowblower outside so they took it from the truck inside my house, through the dining room and into the back porch. Oh there is more but I won’t continue because it is making my blood boil thinking about it. They forced the legs off my ultramatic bed and now 2 of them can’t be screwed in anymore so my bed cannot be used, they damaged my stairs, they broke one of my kitchen stool and many of the items in the boxes were broken. In conclusion I am trying to put a claim through for the damages they caused to my bed, the stool and my stairs but guess what? Their voicemail is always full and nobody answers the phone. What a shock. Professional movers?? More like a Mickey Mouse Co. A very disgusted and unhappy customer.

Long-distance move from Greater Sudbury, ON to Montreal, QC

Not to professional

This company is not reliable. Reserved a truck, company says they tried to contact me for pickup appointment,said they couldn't get a hold of me , so they cancelled my pickup and kept my deposit. I sent emails,with no response. Very unprofessional. Not reliable. Not recommended. I think this company is just trying to make easy money. Scammers. Be careful.

Move size: Studio Service cost: $200

Official company response

We at O Canada Movers try our best to make every move as stress-free and trouble free as possible. There is no way that no one had responded as there is always more than 2 employees in the office working and responding to both emails and telephone calls.

Worst experience!!! Don't hire them!!!!!

This company was booked to move my retired MIL this past sat. They were booked for 9am. She got a call that a truck broke down and they would come between 2-4. They showed up after 5pm looked at her stuff and said she had too many things. If wanted them to move her stuff it would cost $2000! She had a bed, 2 dressers and like 20 totes. So they left. Leaving her with no option and not being able to leave her rental. Also they have yet to return her $200 deposit or return any of the calls to them. Now she can't afford to hire movers.

At O Canada Movers we believe in being transparent with our customer, their are times when customers my under estimate their belongings. Our movers will let the customers know they have more than the quoted amount, to allow the customer to make the decision to either go ahead with the move or to cancel the move. If the client choose to cancel the move the movers continue on with their daily schedule.

Don't do it

Horrible Horrible Horrible ,

Movers showed up half hour early(the only good part of the move) but then sat in their truck iny driveway for 30i minutes.

I was quoted at $600 and once my furniture was on the truck I was told my move would cost $2400 and unless my balance was paid in full they would not deliver it to my new address...I am livid.. do not use this company.

I should have read the reviews , because i see im not the only one

Move size: 2 Bedroom Home Service cost: $2400

Official company response

At O Canada Movers the quoted amount is based on the estimated weight the client provides at the time of booking. There are times when customers may be over the estimated weight and adjustment would have to be made to the cost of the move. As our company believes in transparencies, information regarding payment is clearly listed in the customers booking confirmation email they receive.

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.
