Men In Trucks Moving Inc. moves families in and out of Embrun — one of the fastest-growing communities east of Ottawa, and the largest village in Russell Township. Our crews are based in Ottawa, about 35 kilometres up the road, and Embrun is regular ground for us: new-build subdivisions with tight possession timelines, young families arriving from Orléans and the east end, and long-time villagers moving within the community they’ve always called home. Et bien sûr — service en français, sans problème, dans un village majoritairement francophone.

In this guide
What Embrun moves look like
- New subdivisions. Much of Embrun’s growth is new-build two-storey family homes — no elevators to book, but firm builder possession dates, fresh sod to protect and sometimes a garage-first unload while the interior gets finished touches.
- The village core. Older homes near the Castor River and Notre-Dame Street have the classic village quirks: mature trees, narrower drives, basements that have collected a generation of belongings.
- Bilingual moving day. Embrun is a majority-francophone community — our crews work in French and English, from the first quote to the last box.
- Commuter-friendly scheduling. Many Embrun households run on Ottawa work schedules; weekend and end-of-month slots book first, so reserve early.
New-build moves: possession day done right
A new-build move runs on the builder’s clock: keys at a set hour, a paper-thin window between closing and the truck arriving, and a home where the driveway may be gravel and the lawn is a week old. We time the crew to your key release, protect new floors and door frames (builders notice everything on the PDI), and stage boxes room-by-room so the first night isn’t spent hunting for bedding. If your closing date slips — it happens — our storage service bridges the gap without drama.
Moving out from Ottawa and Orléans
The classic Embrun move starts in Ottawa’s east end — an apartment or first home in Orléans, Blackburn Hamlet or Vanier — and ends with more house for the money out on the 417 corridor. Because our trucks are Ottawa-based, this is a one-crew, same-day move: load in the city in the morning, unload in Embrun after lunch. We run the reverse trip constantly too, for households heading back toward the city. Start at our main Ottawa movers page for the city end of things.
How Embrun moves are priced
Embrun moves are quoted on our transparent hourly crew rates, with the travel from Ottawa stated plainly in the estimate — no surprise charges on the invoice. The size of your home, the access at both ends and the date set the time; end-of-month and weekend slots go first. Tell us the details and you’ll have a clear number before moving day.
Frequently asked questions — moving in Embrun
Do you serve Embrun even though you’re based in Ottawa?
Yes — Embrun is inside our regular service area, about 35 kilometres from our Ottawa base. The travel is built into your quote up front, and the move itself runs as a normal one-day local move.
Est-ce que le service est disponible en français?
Oui, absolument. Nos équipes travaillent en français comme en anglais — soumission, réservation et jour du déménagement.
Can you coordinate with a builder possession date?
Yes — new-build moves are an Embrun specialty. We schedule the crew around your key-release time, protect the new finishes, and if closing slips we can hold your belongings in storage until the house is ready.
Do you handle moves from Orléans or other east-end Ottawa neighbourhoods to Embrun?
All the time — it’s the most common Embrun move we do. One crew loads in the east end and unloads in Embrun the same day.
Do you also serve Russell village and the rest of the township?
Yes — Russell, Marionville and the surrounding township are all regular territory. See our Russell movers page for the village next door.
Is a small move worth booking, like a one-bedroom or a few rooms?
Absolutely. Small moves get a right-sized crew and truck, and flexible timing can pair your move with another east-corridor run to keep it efficient.
