Ottawa to Cornwall is a 100-kilometre run down Highway 417 and County Road 138 — close enough for a same-day, one-crew move, far enough that doing it yourself means three exhausting round trips in a rented cube van. Men In Trucks Moving Inc. loads your Ottawa home in the morning and has you unpacking beside the Seaway by mid-afternoon, in English, en français, or both.

How the move works
One crew, one truck, one day. We load in Ottawa, take the 417 east and drop south on the 138, and unload in Cornwall about 75 minutes later. No freight terminals, no consolidation waits, no second carrier — the same corridor standard our Ottawa long-distance moving crews hold on every route.
Why Ottawa households pick Cornwall
- The affordability gap — Cornwall remains one of Eastern Ontario’s most affordable cities, and Ottawa sellers routinely arrive mortgage-free. We see it weekly: a Barrhaven or Orléans sale funding a detached home near the waterfront with money left over.
- Bilingual life without the big-city pace — Cornwall runs comfortably in both official languages, which makes the landing softer for francophone households leaving Ottawa or Gatineau.
- Retirement near the river — the Seaway waterfront, Lamoureux Park, and single-level homes draw downsizers; our crews are practiced at estate-scale sorting and careful handling of a lifetime of belongings.
The Cornwall end
Cornwall unloads are straightforward — driveways, wide streets, and cooperative buildings. The riverfront apartment towers ask for booked elevators, which we arrange ahead. Moving into an apartment or condo rather than a house? Our Cornwall apartment movers page covers the tower-and-walk-up specifics. And once you’re settled, local jobs around the city — from single-item pickups to full re-locations — run through our Cornwall movers hub.
How it’s priced
A same-day corridor move is quoted before moving day from home size, access at both ends, and the date — no surprise charges, no fuel-surcharge fine print. The full picture of how corridor moves are priced lives in our long-distance moving cost guide.
Frequently asked questions — Ottawa to Cornwall moves
Is Ottawa to Cornwall really a one-day move?
Yes — it’s about 75 minutes of driving. Morning load in Ottawa, afternoon unload in Cornwall, one crew the whole way.
Can the whole move run in French?
Oui, sans problème — booking, moving day, and the paperwork can all run in French, English, or a mix.
Do you handle downsizing moves into smaller Cornwall homes?
Constantly. We can split the load — keepers to Cornwall, other pieces to family, donation, or our Ottawa storage — in a single planned day.
My Cornwall closing is two weeks after my Ottawa closing. Can you bridge it?
Yes: we load in Ottawa, store your belongings in our warehouse, and deliver to Cornwall when you have keys. One contract covers all three stages.
Do you move people from Cornwall to Ottawa too?
Every week, in both directions — same crew standard, same clear quote.
