Movers in Sharbot Lake & Central Frontenac

Sharbot Lake sits where Highway 7 meets Highway 38 — the crossroads of the Frontenac highlands, with Arden, Mountain Grove, Parham and Tichborne scattered along the lakes around it, and North Frontenac’s Plevna and Ompah up the road. It’s granite-and-lake country where a move means a lane, a slope and often a woodstove, and Men In Trucks Moving Inc. handles all of it with our own trucks and crews — one written number before load day, access planned in advance.
Moves we handle in the Frontenacs
- Village and hamlet moves — Sharbot Lake, Arden, Mountain Grove, Parham, Tichborne and the roads between; Plevna and Ompah up in North Frontenac on the same basis.
- Lake properties — Sharbot, Eagle, Kennebec and the dozens of smaller lakes: cottage-to-home conversions, seasonal repositions and full moves, with lane access planned at quote time.
- The Highway 7 corridor — Perth is 35 minutes east; see our Perth movers page for that end.
- The Highway 38 corridor — south through Verona toward Kingston; our Kingston movers page covers the city end.
- Long-distance from a Frontenac address — anywhere in Canada as a dedicated job via our long-distance service.

Local knowledge that saves moving-day time
Frontenac lanes were cut for pickups, not moving trucks — so we ask the right questions before load day: gravel or rock, grade, turnaround, and how far the house sits from where a 26-footer can safely stand. Where the truck can’t reach, we stage a shuttle and price it into the plan, not onto a surprise invoice. Woodstoves, pianos and workshop tools are regular cargo up here; call them out at quote time and the right equipment is on the truck.
Frequently asked questions — Sharbot Lake moves
Do you really come out to the highlands, or just along Highway 7?
Both — Sharbot Lake and the Highway 7 corridor, plus the lake roads north into Central and North Frontenac. The flat first-3-hours rate covers the trip out wherever the lane ends.
Can a moving truck manage a granite cottage lane?
Often yes, sometimes with a shuttle from the nearest safe spot — either way it’s decided at quote time from your description of the lane, not improvised on the day.
Do you move woodstoves and workshop equipment?
Yes, with the proper crew and gear — tell us about the heavy pieces when you get your quote so they’re planned work.
Can you do a cottage-to-home conversion move?
All the time — it’s the region’s signature move. We handle the full household plus the seasonal extras, and storage-in-transit in our Ottawa warehouse can bridge dates if the closings don’t line up.
How far ahead should I book?
Two to three weeks for summer and month-end dates; more if you’re tied to a fixed closing day. Off-season, shorter notice usually works.
