My newlywed wife and I moved out of my father's house last week, and we selected Arby Cartage for our moving needs based on their excellent reviews here on HomeStars. The movers showed up promptly at 9 AM, as they said they would, and managed to cram our furniture and stuff (queen bed, large queen pull-out couch, dresser, bookshelves, BBQ, two bikes, two office chairs, and many, many boxes) into their white cube truck with excellent speed. We were done at the house in only an hour and a half, ahead of even my most optimistic schedule. The bed and pull-out couch were my biggest concerns but our two movers handled them with aplomb. Heading out to our house in Etobicoke, I suggested they take the road I usually took but they stuck to the 401 as their GPS suggested; my wife and I arrived first but not by much; it's best to arrive first anyways; we had a chance to make sure the house was ready to receive them (it had snowed the night before) and in any case I preferred that the movers take a familiar route rather than possibly getting lost on my verbal instructions.
Once they arrived shortly after we did, everything was unloaded quickly; they even managed to get the enormous pull-out couch down our staircase and into the basement. We were done in about 3.5 hours; the minimum charge is for 4 hours but the price was exceedingly reasonable -- we had the minimum number of people (2) and I think the smallest truck. Would definitely use to move again.
