Movers in Deep River — Chalk River, Laurentian Hills & Point Alexander

Eastern Ontario moving · ~4 min read · Updated August 2026

Deep River is the planned town of the upper Ottawa Valley — laid out for the scientists and staff of the Chalk River Laboratories, strung along the river with Highway 17 running behind it. It’s the northwest anchor of our service area, and Men In Trucks Moving Inc. serves it the way we serve everywhere: our own trucks, our own trained crews, one written number before load day. The Trans-Canada makes it a clean highway run past Petawawa from our Ottawa base, and the flat-rate structure means the distance is baked in, not added on.

Moves we handle in Deep River & area

• Professional relocations in and out of the nuclear campus — new hires arriving at the Chalk River Laboratories, and staff heading on to the next posting; weekday scheduling and tight report dates are normal for us.
• Deep River town moves — the mid-century planned streets near the waterfront, apartments, and downsizing moves for long-time residents.
• Chalk River village and Laurentian Hills — Point Alexander, Rolphton and the rural stretches between them along Highway 17.
• Down-valley moves — to Petawawa, Pembroke, Ottawa and beyond; larger relocations go through our long-distance service.
• Waterfront and cottage properties — places along the Ottawa River where dock season, lane access and slope get planned at quote time.

Simple flat-rate pricing in Deep River

Every move outside Ottawa is priced the simple way: one flat rate covers your first 3 hours — crew, 26-foot truck, fuel and the trip out, all included — then straight hourly billing after that. No travel-fee math, no fuel surcharge, no surprises on move day.

• 2 movers + truck — $750 + tax for the first 3 hours, then $150/hr
• 3 movers + truck — $950 + tax for the first 3 hours, then $195/hr
• 4 movers + truck — $1,200 + tax for the first 3 hours, then $245/hr
• 5 movers + 2 trucks — $1,600 + tax for the first 3 hours, then $325/hr

The number we quote in writing is the number on your invoice unless the scope of the move genuinely changes. Get yours by phone at 613-800-0917 or through our online quote form.

Local knowledge that saves moving-day time

Moves up here run on Highway 17 timing — we plan around the construction season and leave margin the highway sometimes takes back. Deep River’s original townsite streets are compact and treed, so we position the truck for the shortest carry rather than the nearest curb. Laboratory relocations often come with fixed start dates and employer paperwork; we’ve handled enough of them to know the quote needs to be firm and in writing early. And for winter moves — which are common when hiring cycles land in January — our crews carry floor protection and plan the load order for the weather.
