great communication from Warren and Trey during the move. Since my home was not accessible by a semi I met the truck with a Uhaul outside of town and getting the exact time and place was important. Even though the driver had some difficulty finding my remote location due to Google not able to provide accurate info and he in a 70 ft semi the driver still arrived on time and was very professional and upbeat about the situation. My belongings were well packed and not a single thing broken or scratched. The driver transferred the goods to my Uhaul in -20 weather no complaints. Definitely recommend this Company.

I was recommended by a friend of mine who used this company before and then checked them out on Homestars before making the call. These guys were the best! They packed up my 1 bedroom apartment in Moncton, loaded it and moved to my new condo in Oshawa. They were extremely fast, super friendly, and very respectful of my stuff, moving everything carefully. They asked which way I wanted my rugs and where to place my bed in the room before assembly. Paid slightly over $800. Worth every dollar I paid. Awesome company!

I am very happy that the moving company I selected fulfilled all my
expectations. Centennial Moving was my choice and it will most
definitely by my choice next time when I move from Vancouver back to
Toronto.
The entire moving process went very professional from start to finish.
It is always nice to see that people you hire know their job and know
what needs to be done.
A big thanks to Centennial Moving, to their customer support team, to
their driver and movers.

I have never had an experience with a company that I was paying for that has showed such little concern for customer service/satisfaction. IT almost felt like I owed them something for using them as my moving company.

PRICE

I moved from Toronto to Montreal for work. I was quoted $600 for the move wth 30 days free storage. There were hidden fees for the free storage of $150, and in the end my bill was over $1300...I didn't have a bed, mattress or that many boxes, so saying that I underestimated my belongings is no excuse for that. Just be honest from the start and tell me what to expect. Someone I work with also moved with them...he had much more to move and was also quoted $600. Must be their go to number to rope you in.

DELAYS

They told me to find an apartment and give them 2 weeks notice to be sure that my stuff made it on time. I rushed to find an apartment so I can get my things delivered by the time I had to move in (one month after arriving). I gave them two weeks notice and they gave me a range of dates to expect my things of a 5 day period. They said I would get 24 hours notice before they come (never heard of anyone doing this, I had to tell work I was going to let them know last minute if I needed the next morning off).

They emailed me just before I had to leave my temp rental to say that they had mechanical issues with their truck and that I would have to wait up to 10 extra days for my things to arrive. Obviously all I had was a suitcase with my and a mattress I ordered and so would have to go 10 days without any kitchen stuff, chairs, my sheets and blankets and pillows. They said there was nothing they could do (like rent a u-haul) and I would just have to wait. No discounts for this by the way or anything. I ended up spending hundreds of dollars on blankets, pillows, a frying pan, knife, cups and other essentials to get by for the time being.

SMASHED BOXES

When they finally arrived, they began to unload my boxes from the truck (a u-haul they clearly rented anyway). Each and every one of my boxes had been completely smashed up. No explanation or anything. They just casually unloaded them like I wouldn't notice. I finally said something at the end and the guy gave me attitude like it was my fault they destroyed them.

I didn't bother letting these guys know that I am moving back to Toronto (along with my buddy who moved here for work too) and will be needing a moving service again. I will make sure to tell everyone I know not to go near these guys.

Refer to Better Business Bureau complaints for an accurate view of this company. note the complaints from people who weighed prior to handing over items.
I would never recomend them!!! Do not use them!!!!!

I searched a lot to find out a reliable moving company to ship my furniture from Toronto to Calgary. They are professional, fast, polite, respectful, reliable and punctuate. It was a one bedroom apartment load and it took around one hour and a half to pick up with all the blanket wrapping and only half an hour to deliver items. They respond to emails promptly and give updates on the shipment accurately. The whole moving was on time and perfectly managed. I would highly recommend this company.

Centennial have moved from Airdrie AB to Toronto ON and it was really the top company I have ever dealt with, after I  had some terrible experiences in moving with others, and it was a bit difficult for me to trust someone else , but when I choose this company as I got them recommended by one of my friends , I can say that they have done amazing job . Timing, smoothness in moving and transparency of their agents was incredible.
I will definitely recommend in my network.
