Movers in the Petite-Nation — Thurso, Papineauville & Montebello
Moving in the Petite-Nation? Get one flat-rate number from a licensed & insured crew — en français ou en anglais. Call 613-800-0917
The Petite-Nation valley runs along the Ottawa River east of Gatineau — Thurso with its mill, Plaisance and its park, Papineauville, Montebello with the great log château, and Saint-André-Avellin up the valley road. Since the A-50 opened, the whole corridor sits within an easy hour of our base, and Men In Trucks Moving Inc. serves it the way we serve everywhere: our own truck, our own crew, one written number before load day, en français ou en anglais.
Moves we handle in the Petite-Nation
- Village moves — Thurso, Plaisance, Papineauville, Montebello, Saint-André-Avellin and the rangs between: houses, apartments and downsizing moves.
- To and from Gatineau and Ottawa — down the A-50 or the 148; interprovincial paperwork is routine for us. See our Buckingham & Masson-Angers movers page for the sectors next door.
- Riverfront and cottage properties — places along the Ottawa River and the lakes up the valley, where lane access and slope get planned at quote time.
- Montreal-direction moves — the A-50 east makes Lachute and Montreal a straightforward run; larger relocations go through our long-distance service.
- Century village homes — tall Québécois village houses with steep stairs and galleries; we plan the carry before the day, not during it.
Simple flat-rate pricing in the Petite-Nation

- 4 movers + truck — $1,200 + tax for the first 3 hours, then $245/hr

Local knowledge that saves moving-day time
The A-50 changed everything about serving this valley — what used to be a slow run down the 148 is now an hour of highway. In the villages, we position the truck for narrow main streets (Papineauville’s core, Montebello in tourist season); on the rangs, we confirm lane grade and turnaround before load day. July 1 lease turnover fills the calendar on the Québec side — if your date is fixed, book early.
Frequently asked questions — Petite-Nation moves
Est-ce que le service est disponible en français ?
Oui — soumission, coordination et équipe de déménagement, en français ou en anglais, selon votre préférence.
Do you really come out as far as Montebello and Saint-André-Avellin?
Yes — the whole Petite-Nation valley is inside our 150 km service area, and the A-50 makes it an easy run.
Is a move from the Petite-Nation to Ottawa complicated?
Not for us — interprovincial moves are our normal work. The quote, paperwork and insurance cover both provinces, and nothing about the line changes your price structure.
How far ahead should I book?
Two to three weeks for summer and month-end dates — more around July 1, when Québec lease turnover fills the calendar fast. Off-season, shorter notice usually works.
Can you store my belongings between homes?
Yes — storage-in-transit in our secure Ottawa warehouse bridges the gap between your move-out and move-in dates, all under one quote.
