Gatineau Movers —
You Can Actually Count On
Foosun Moving has been helping Gatineau and Ottawa families relocate since 2008. From Hull’s century-old walk-ups to Plateau’s new builds — we know every neighbourhood, every challenge, every bridge route across the Ottawa River.
We’ve Already Solved Them
Gatineau isn’t just Ottawa across a bridge. Older buildings in Hull have no freight elevators and staircases that test every mover. Plateau developments have strict parking rules for large vehicles. Aylmer’s suburban streets require longer carry distances than city moves.
Our team has navigated all of it. We send movers who already know what to expect at your address — not ones who figure it out on the day of your move. Every Gatineau move includes a pre-move walkthrough, furniture wrapping with 50 moving blankets per truck, and clear hourly pricing with no surprise fees at the end.

We know Hull walk-ups, Plateau building rules, and every bridge route across the Ottawa River.

Every Corner of Gatineau, Covered
We regularly move clients across all major Gatineau districts. Here’s what makes each one distinct — and how we plan for it.
Hull
High-DensityGovernment workers, older low-rise buildings, staircase-only access in many units. We plan extra carry time and bring the right equipment for third-floor walks. No elevator? We’ve done it hundreds of times.
- Pre-move staircase and route assessment
- 3-person crew for heavy items on stairs
- Temporary parking permit coordination
Aylmer
SuburbanFamily homes on wide lots with longer driveway distances. Ideal for full-home moves with plenty of room to stage and load. Calmer streets and good truck access make Aylmer moves run smoothly.
- Long-carry equipment for large lots
- Good staging space for full household volumes
- Bilingual crew available
Plateau
New ConstructionModern developments with strict building access rules and limited street parking. We contact building management ahead of time to avoid delays — elevator booking, loading dock windows, and COI all handled before move day.
- Building management contacted in advance
- Elevator booking coordinated
- COI available on request

- Ontario–Quebec moves handled routinely
Moving Between Gatineau and Ottawa? We Do This Every Week.
Cross-provincial moves between Gatineau and Ottawa come with logistics most movers don’t anticipate. Bridge traffic. Differing parking bylaws. Separate building regulations on each side of the river. Municipal permits that differ by province. Our team coordinates all of it before your moving day — not on it.
Pre-Move Route Planning
We map the optimal bridge crossing and staging route based on your specific pickup and delivery addresses.
Permit & Access Coordination
Parking permits on both the Ottawa and Gatineau sides are confirmed in advance — no scrambling on moving day.
Scheduled Bridge Crossing
We time the crossing to avoid peak bridge congestion — keeping your move efficient and on budget.
Delivery & Setup
Furniture placed exactly where you want it. Disassembly and reassembly as needed. Final walkthrough before we leave.
Third-Floor Walk-Up in Hull. No Elevator. Large Sofa and Full Appliances.
We recently helped a family move from a third-floor apartment in Hull that had no elevator access. The staircase was narrow, with tight landings between floors. The move included a large sectional sofa, a full refrigerator, washer/dryer, and several oversized pieces of furniture.
“The biggest challenge was the refrigerator. It’s bulky, heavy, and the layout made things even tougher with narrow doorways. The team planned it out, and moved it with a level of skill that really showed their experience. No rushing, no frustration — just teamwork.”
Our crew planned the sequence before touching a single item. The sofa was disassembled at the frame, moved in sections, and reassembled at the destination. The refrigerator required a stair-climbing dolly and a three-person carry on the tightest landing. The move was completed without a scratch on the appliances or the walls.
This level of preparation is standard for every Foosun move — not something we reserve for difficult jobs. We assess access challenges during booking and arrive with the right equipment and enough people to do it safely.
“I recently moved from a bungalow in Gatineau to Val-des-Monts. The Foosun crew — Wei, Mike, and Jay — were absolute pros. The biggest challenge was my oversized 2-door refrigerator through narrow doorways and a tight staircase. They managed it safely without a single scratch. Hardworking, respectful, and they really know what they’re doing.”

Tips Before You Move in Gatineau
Book Early in Peak Season
June, July, and August are the busiest months. Two weeks’ advance notice secures your preferred time slot. Same-day bookings are possible but not guaranteed.
Confirm Parking in Advance
Gatineau’s parking bylaws differ by neighbourhood. We handle permit applications — but knowing your building’s loading zone location saves time on moving day.
Label Boxes by Destination Room
Clear room labels on every box cut unloading time significantly. Our crew won’t need to ask where anything goes, and nothing ends up in the wrong place.
Plan for Gatineau Weather
Winter moves are fully manageable but need more staging time. Wet floors and icy walkways are part of every cold-month plan we prepare for every client.
