Excellent Pricing and Packing Service
“We hired Francis Movers to move our home including several large and heavy pieces of antique furniture. Their professional attitude and no hassle pricing (e.g. we paid the amount we were quoted from their estimate) led to a smooth moving day. We also took advantage of their packing service, which resulted in no broken or chipped items. Great work Francis Movers, keep it up!”
– Harold (North York)

Recommended by a Realtor

Would Recommend Them to Anyone
“I moved on Friday from Mississauga to Ajax and Francis Movers were amazing! We had to cancel last minute last week due to some complications with our closing. Francis Movers was so accommodating and understanding we were shocked. We called to re-schedule once again for the new closing date and they were so helpful right from the start. On the day of the move the team (3 guys) ended up showing up early as I had the possibility of getting our elevator before the booking time. They showed up at the perfect time and were polite and professional. Mike, Mike and Jay took no time at all getting all of our stuff from our 2-bedroom condo and storage locker. They did not stop until the truck was fully loaded. On top of that they beat us to Ajax! When we arrived at our new home they were fired up and ready to go! Once the door was open they put down mats to not step on the new flooring and asked where we would like every piece of furniture or box that came into our home. We asked for them to grab some boxes from the cars we had with us and they politely agreed and cleared them out in no time. Start to finish, these guys were a shade under 6 hours and they did not stop the entire time, simply impressive! I could not have asked for anything more in a moving team! They were the best moving experience I have ever had and would recommend them to anyone out there. You will not find better in the GTA.”
– Mike (Mississauga)
Do Exactly What They Promise
“On time, professional, experienced crew, good rate, no hidden fees. I have used this co. twice before today’s move (15 years and 22 years ago). I recommended Francis Movers to many coworkers since then and no disappointments. It is really great to have a company do exactly what they promise to. It was a pleasure to deal with Matthew to book the move.”
– Peter R. (Thornhill)
Excellent… Mover of Choice
“Francis Movers, just a short note to thank you for moving us from Toronto to Cobourg recently. It was a great move, completed in less time than anticipated and without loss or damage. Your team of Don, Brian and Rick were excellent. They worked so harmoniously together and with such good humour and care we were delighted with the results. You are our Mover of choice.”
– Gary (Cobourg)
Smooth Move
“I just wanted to send a thanks for a very smooth move this morning. The three guys, Rod, Grant and Dave, were great. They took good care with my mum’s belongings and were very patient as we readjusted furniture and rooms where things should go etc. etc. on this end. They were all done in 3 1/2 hours. Thanks for your assistance.”
– Cindy (Ajax)
Professional, Fast, and Efficient
“I booked with Francis Movers from a friends recommendation. She had used them for several moves. I was equally happy. They came on time. They were professional, fast and efficient. Moving is never fun, but if I have to move again I would not hesitate to use them again.”
– Carrie (Thornhill)
I Recommend Them Regularly
“I used Francis Movers several years ago, based on a recommendation. I remember being very happy with both the price quoted and the service. I am now a realtor and recommend them regularly. I follow up with my clients who use them and they have all been very happy with their moves. I will continue to recommend them based on all the positive feedback I have received.”
– Barbara P. (North York)
The Team for Anyone Who Isn’t Sure About Trusting Movers
“I booked moving from Francis Movers because I saw one of their fliers in my mailbox. But I was still apprehensive about trusting movers as I heard many horror stories on the news. Over the phone, Francis Told me that the move would take seven hours with his three men, but it actually only took 6.5 hours. Danny, the driver, and his crew were very gentle and efficient with my belongings. They were very pleasant and knowledgeable about moving, they knew how to perform their jobs well. From knowing tricks on how to keep doors open, to using the dolly with my piano, through and through, the team showed professionalism and tact. I would definitely recommend this team from Francis Movers to move anyone who is not sure if they can trust movers.”
– Vick (Scarborough)
Always Professional and Careful
“I got Francis Movers’ contact from a family member who was very satisfied with their services a couple years ago when I moved. I was so happy with their service that I’ve since recommended them to several other people. Always professional and careful with the move.”
– Ann (Mississauga)
Hard Working, Always On-Time
“I have used Francis Movers multiple times over the past few years. They are always the best price, good movers that work hard, always on time. They never nickel and dime with extra charges. I am a real estate agent and also refer them all the time to my clients.”
– Carol A. (Toronto)
Always Affordable, Reliable and Conscientious
“I have used the services of Francis Movers several times over the course of the past 15 years and found them to be incredibly affordable, reliable and conscientious. I have recommended them to friends, co-workers and extended family because they have always sent individuals who took care with my belongings and were fast at their job. They have never let me down always showing up on time and completing the move in the time frame expected. Knowing I can always count on Francis Movers takes a lot of the stress out of moving day. Our last move was out of the city but I know I will call them again because I can count on the level of service I will receive.”
– Bales Family (New Tecumseh)
Highly Recommend
“This company is excellent! They even moved a 3000 pound snooker table without a hitch! The movers were exceptional – polite, intelligent, and very careful with all our furniture. There was not a mark on any item. The move took 3 men on one truck and 2 men on a smaller truck. We downsized from a large Toronto home to a condo, moved most furniture to a permanent home in Algonquin (270kms north), made two pick-ups from a storage facility, and picked up the snooker table in Brantford. I would highly recommend them!”
– David M. (York)
Best Move We’ve Ever Experienced
“Hello, Matthew I just wanted to write a quick message to tell you that the move on Friday went without a hitch!! Your crew was absolutely AMAZING and so kind and efficient … and FAST! … I have to say that this move was THE BEST that we have ever experienced! Cost-wise, service-wise, efficiency-wise, the move just could not have been better! We have experienced some pretty horrendous previous moves, and so any thought of moving always brings back these awful memories, so, if and when the occasion should arise again, for sure I will be contacting ‘Francis Movers’ … and will certainly pass on your name to any friends and contacts who may be moving.”
-Naomi D. (Markham)
Pleasant and Courteous
“Thank you for the good service. I am very pleased with the movers who came to help me moved. They were pleasant and courteous. They were very careful with moving and stacking the boxes to make sure all were well taken care of. It was a very pleasant experience. I will recommend your company to my friends and my Real Estate Agent and her company.”
– Tran D. (Toronto)
Totally Satisfied and Impressed
“We were totally satisfied and impressed with Francis Movers from the time we received our quote to the time we paid the bill. The quote was almost dead on….they came in a little under the quote. Movers were fantastic. Not a mark or scratch or damage on anything including the walls. All furniture was taken apart as needed and re-assembled and placed where we asked them to put it. I would highly recommend this mover to anyone. Everything was done in an extremely timely manner. Keep up the good work!”
– Lynda (North York)
Courteous and Friendly
“Francis Movers was great. I had to reschedule my move date two weeks prior due to the renovation work on the condo not being completed on time and they were able to do it no problem. The movers showed up on time, were careful moving our furniture and finished the move quickly. They were courteous and friendly and I was very happy with the service they provided. They were also very affordable compared to some other moving companies. I would definitely use them again.”
– Kate K. (Toronto)
The Most Comfortable Relocation
“It was a friend who recommended Francis Movers to me. I hate to move but I will say that this was the most comfortable relocation I have ever made. My guys (movers), Joe and Jimmy, were very friendly, fast and efficient. Not one item was dropped and not a single mark left on my walls or door frames. I would absolutely recommend Francis Movers to others and in fact my buddy who helped said that when he moves, he will definitely use them. The rates were incredible and which made the expense of moving a little easier to manage. I actually enjoyed giving my guys a little something, something for the fantastic job they did. Thanks guys.”
– Melody (Toronto)
Worked Tirelessly
“We used Francis Movers several times, and most recently to move a three bedroom home from Richmond Hill to Brampton. We had three men and a 30 foot truck from about 9:30 to 4:30. The move went well. The men worked tirelessly and packed everything carefully. We had a couple of really large, heavy items that they had to deal with. There was no damage, and we were very satisfied with everything. We’ll use them again, and would recommend them to anyone.”
– Len (Brampton)
Quick and Efficient and Very Reliable
“I have used this company many times in the past and have always been a very happy and satisfied customer. I’ve recommended them to friends and family. Things break when you’re moving – it’s a common fact. However (*knock on wood*), I’ve NEVER had anything break when I’ve used this company. They show up on time, they are quick and efficient and very reliable. Any future moving needs will definitely be booked with them!”
– Melody (Toronto)
The Price Was Amazing
“I booked my move through Francis Movers and the price was amazing! It was quoted $70 an hour. I thought it was too good to be true. On the day of my move, the two gentlemen Todd and Paul showed up right on time! They were very pleasant and helpful!! They were quick and treated my belongings very safely, and the price was as quoted. They most definitely deserved a tip. I will most definitely recommend this company along with Todd and Paul again.”
– Jennifer O. (Brampton)
Receives More Value Than You Paid For
“It’s not often one receives more value than you paid for. On November 19th, your crew headed by Flip did an exceptional job in moving us from Scarborough to Stouffville. The move started on time, your staff was courteous, professional and efficient. We finished the move in only six hours – far less time than I had planned for. I will recommend Francis Movers to all my friends and colleagues. Thank you very much.”
– Fred (Toronto)
Exceptional Job on My Move
“Francis Movers was recommended by a friend to me. I called them. They booked me in for the day I wanted. They did an exceptional job on my move. They were efficient and fast. Very reasonable price. The movers were friendly. No problems at all. I’m very satisfied with their service and I highly recommend them, as well.”
– MyLinh (Toronto)
They Were Awesome!
“Moving from Vaughan area to Ajax. Approx 80 pieces of furniture and 80 boxes. Very happy with the move Dan and his Crew were awesome! Very Good team, you should be proud. Thanks!”
– Denny M. (Vaughn)
Would Definitely Hire Them Again
“Hired Francis Movers to move me from a one bedroom condo to another one bedroom condo. The movers (Joe and Howard) arrived on time the day of my move and moved all of my furniture and personal items to the new condo without damage to the items or the walls of either building. They even informed the front desk at both buildings that the move was complete and that the elevators could be taken off of service mode. I would definitely hire them again.”
– Mellie (Toronto)
Worth Every Penny
“I hired Francis Movers based on the reviews from Homestars and their rates were very reasonable. They are worth every penny and the reviews on Homestars are accurate. I initially requested two movers for $70/hour. They had brought a third person as an option. It was optional if we were to go with two and they were okay with that. Three movers would have cost $90/hour. I decided to go with three as it would have saved me at least 1.5 hours. It took about 5.5 hours (including one hour travel time) to load unload our stuff. The guys (Rod, Grant and Dave) were fast and friendly. I highly recommend Francis Movers and would use them again.”
– Gerry (the Bluffs)
Couldn’t Have Asked For a Better Move
“Francis Movers provided excellent service on my move. There was a delay between closing, so it was a double move that could not have been handled better. They arrived on time and were very quick and efficient. The move into storage was great. They were more than happy to send the same crew, “Flippers crew,” to do the second move, which was extremely helpful, as I didn’t have to tell them the same things to be careful of. The move in was in late afternoon and the guys were really good about it. They struggled to get a couch that didn’t want to go down to the basement and didn’t give up until they got it – a couple of doors off and an amazing amount of patience, and they got it down. The price was very reasonable. I couldn’t have asked for a better move.”
– Linda (East York)
