Household move to another city for our 90-year old mother

Thank you to the team! Tammy and John, you were very helpful. Ben, Cliff and Robin were the outstanding movers who were on time, very efficient, quick but careful, and friendly. We could tell that they are experts at this! They made a stressful time for us (moving from her home to a seniors’ residence for our mother) much easier and pleasant, actually.

We will recommend Eager Beaver to anyone considering a move.

Thank you very much!

Household move

I am very pleased with the service provided to us in our recent move! My email inquiring about a quote from Eager Beaver had a response within 20 minutes! I received a courtesy email the day before to say what time the crew would arrive and they arrived in that timeframe. I can't say enough about the 2 guys who moved our things! Everything was wrapped and moved into the truck and they were on their way in 2 hours! They even moved a few items to my garage that we weren't moving to our condo to make it easier to sell things (thanks guys)! No hidden costs! And I paid using VISA with the driver right when things were finished. No need to worry about payment later. I highly recommend Eager Beaver!! It is important to support local companies. Why go anywhere else?

Packing and Moving

A packer was sent to pack up my things. She did a wonderful job! Efficient and careful! Nothing was broken and everything was packed and labelled according to which room it belonged in. The next day, 3 movers came, loaded up my boxes and things and dropped them off at my new place. They were all incredibly polite, kind, patient with me, and moved so quickly! I was impressed. Start to finish, 3.5 hours! They were on time, worked the entire time and worked hard, on Good Friday, in the cold and snow. Worth every penny!

Short Haul Moving

I have moved a lot in my days, and the service Eager Beaver Moving provided from time of estimate to receipt of invoice was one of my best moving experiences
The two young men who moved me were fantastic.
They were extremely professional, very punctual and efficient.
I will be recommending Eager Beaver Moving to anyone who needs to have moving services.

More about Eager Beaver Moving

Since its foundation in 1984, Eager Beaver Moving has been about relationships. After nearly 25 years in the moving and freight business, the company’s founder, Jack Watson saw an opportunity to build a local moving company whose values included quality and pride in ones work above all else. Jack’s experience with large companies like Gimli Transfer, Beaver Storage and Eaton’s helped shape the vision of his future enterprise, where he knew that a personal commitment and a handshake meant more to people than what big corporations could offer. His dream became reality when Eaton’s began selling some of its older fleet. Jack jumped at the chance to break out on his own and called on his friend, the head of Eaton’s asset management, to secure several of the now iconic Ford cab-over trucks to begin his venture.
***
With little more than an ad in the local Yellow Pages and a fiery personality, Jack built his company to a fleet of 6 trucks at its peak, operating as both Eager Beaver Express Moving, and the senior’s friendly Jack Watson the Mover.
***
The seeds of the second generation of Eager Beaver Moving began to sprout long before the first had even grown. Watching his dad manage the transportation department at Beaver Storage in the early 1960’s, it was no surprise when Bill got an early start in the moving business as well. At the tender age of 15, Bill’s first job was building the old wooden freight boxes in the warehouse, but it wasn’t long before he too embraced his entrepreneurial spirit, bought his first truck and hit the road, eventually embarking on dozens of coast-to-coast trips per year.
***
It is not easy to distinguish one’s company from the many movers that crowd the phone books, so naturally when a customer does come calling, Eager Beaver makes it their mission to ensure that the customer wants to tell their family and friends what a great experience they had with us.
