Calabogie is where the Ottawa Valley turns into lake country — Calabogie Lake and the Peaks, the Madawaska River winding past Burnstown’s galleries, and White Lake’s cottage roads to the north. More and more of the moves here are permanent: four-season lake houses, retirements out of the city, remote workers trading a commute for a dock. Men In Trucks Moving Inc. serves all of Greater Madawaska with our own trucks and crews — one written number before load day, and lake-lot access planned before the truck rolls.

Local knowledge that saves moving-day time
Cottage-country moving is access planning. Before load day we confirm the things that decide how the day goes: can a 26-footer make the lane and turn around, is the lot steep enough to stage from the road, is there a hot tub or a woodstove or a dock’s worth of furniture in the plan. Where the truck can’t reach, we shuttle from the nearest safe standing spot — decided in the quote, not improvised on gravel. Winter moves get planned around plowing and grade.
Frequently asked questions — Calabogie moves
Can a full-size truck reach a lake lot?
Usually — and when it can’t, we plan a shuttle from the nearest point the truck can safely stand. Describe the lane (surface, grade, turnaround) at quote time and it’s solved before load day.
Do you move hot tubs, woodstoves and dock furniture?
Yes, with the proper equipment and crew — tell us about the pieces when you get your quote so they’re planned, not improvised.
Do you serve White Lake and Burnstown too?
Yes — all of Greater Madawaska plus White Lake’s cottage roads. The flat first-3-hours rate covers the trip out wherever you are in the township.
Can you handle a winter move up here?
Yes — we plan winter jobs around plowed access and grade, and we tell you honestly if a date needs to shift for safety.
How far ahead should I book?
Two to three weeks for summer and month-end dates — cottage-season Fridays go first. Off-season, shorter notice usually works.
