Movers in Renfrew, Ontario
Happy's Moving & Storage moves homes and businesses throughout the Town of Renfrew and the surrounding townships — fairly priced, planned around you, and already in your neighbourhood.
Moving in the town that named the county
Renfrew is the southern gateway to the Valley — close enough to Ottawa for commuters, far enough to still feel like a small town where the movers wave back. We work here every week: wartime homes and red-brick century houses in the older blocks near the Bonnechere River, bungalows off O’Brien Road, and the newer builds filling in toward the highway.
Anyone who’s carried a couch across town knows Renfrew’s quirks — the hills down toward the river, tight older driveways built for one modest sedan, and main-street parking that takes planning on a busy Saturday. A truck is the right tool here: big enough to move a three-bedroom efficiently, small enough to back into a Renfrew laneway without taking the hedge with it.
Who calls us in Renfrew
Commuter families upgrading as Ottawa prices push buyers up the 417 — Renfrew and Arnprior have been catching them for years. Seniors downsizing near Bonnechere Manor, where a careful, patient crew matters more than a fast one. First-time buyers jumping from a Raglan Street apartment to a first house. And local businesses that need a shop moved — or a removal-only clearing when a space just needs emptying.
Renfrew to anywhere (and back)
Local moves around town, out to Calabogie, Douglas, Horton and the townships — that’s daily bread. Renfrew-to-Ottawa is about 100 km and roughly an hour down the 417, so city-bound moves quote clean and land the same day. And with our out-of-province moves, a Renfrew family can relocate across the Ontario–Quebec line — or bring a student home — without paying big-name rates.

Renfrew moving FAQs
Do you charge extra to come out to Renfrew?
No — Renfrew is home turf, not a road trip. Franchises dispatching from Ottawa often bake an hour of travel each way into a Renfrew quote; we don't, because we're already in the county.
Can you move me from Renfrew to Ottawa or Kanata?
Yes — Renfrew sits right at the end of the Highway 417 four-lane, about an hour from Ottawa, and Renfrew-to-city moves are one of our most common runs. We quote them flat, load in the morning and typically have you unpacking the same afternoon.
Do you handle small moves within Renfrew?
Happily. A single apartment, a downsizing move to a retirement residence, one stubborn piano — small jobs are welcome. That's the advantage of calling an local, caring team instead of a franchise with a big minimum charge.
