moved a Fridge

My office down town was closing, and I had an opportunity to get the fridge from the kitchen for a very good price, so I put my name on it. Unfortunately I fell and broke my wrist and was in a fix trying to find a way to get it from downtown to my condo. I called around to a few places, and the prices I was getting really didn't make the move worth it until I found Cargo Cabbie. They were very affordable, and helpful. The guys were considerate, and the move happened efficently. I will definately recommend them to my friends, and when I need to make a move in the future I will call them first.

Hi Glenda. We really appreciate the business and the review.
We are very glad the move went efficiently for you. Our priority is to make sure that moves are affordable and pragmatic for our clients, especially when picking up single items like your fridge. We are always happy to help clients who are in a tough spot too. Glad we could be of service and hope that the wrist is better!
Many thanks- Javier and the Cargo Cabbie Crew

Move to Storage

I highly recommend Cargo Cabbie. We have used them several times and they are kind, careful and professional moving service. They are mindful of little things from taking off their shoes at the entrance to making sure everything is shrink wrapped/covered and ready for transport. I was very impressed at how they took the time to make sure all the items fit, were protected and secure at the storage facility. Amazing and kind people who will be our first choice for any move -- big or small.

Hi MG,

Thanks for the kind words, and the repeat business! We’re detail guys. We know that even the smallest details, like a muddy floor, or a scratched wall, can ruin a moving experience for a client. That’s what sets the true professionals apart from the rest. Thanks for noticing!

Moving 2 bedroom to a 3 bedroom

Where to begin? First off Javier not only owns and runs the company he also shows up and works his butt off with his crew. Fast, careful and professional I didn't feel like I had strangers in my house! The guys were fun and personable. They brought in a specialist (at no additional charge) to break down our bigger pieces and reassemble when Javier had to leave to attend to business. We joked and the day seemed to fly by even though we went over time by about an hour. We have recommended them to friends and encourage anyone who is moving to get a quote. We experienced the exact opposite of the typical moving horror story of so many of our friends and family. Cargo Cabbie does it right from start to finish, and there is the great feeling of supporting an independent business in a city full of big name vultures! Thanks guys, Maddy and Donavan. PS Liam loves the Spider-Man room!

Hi there Donavan,

We’re so happy to hear about experiences like these. We do everything we can to be a different kind of moving company. Moving is an intense experience, and its so important for the client to be comfortable leaving their old place and settling into the new one. Having great communication, and a team of attentive guys will ease the pressure for big moves like this. We always feel lucky to have such down-to-earth clients, because we love to have fun while we work. Positivity is intoxicating, and we think that it’s the best way to move! We can’t thank you enough for sharing with the Homestars community!

moving

I first hired Cargo Cabbie for a last minute delivery of something I bought on Craigslist. The experience was great so I hired them again for our most recent move which was much bigger and more complicated as it involved the amalgamation of 2 homes. Again, Javi and his team provided excellent service - they were friendly, efficient, respectful and fair. I have had horrible experiences with crooked moving companies in the past and it is a relief to have found a company I can trust. I will now call Cargo Cabbie for all my moves - big and small.

Hi Meghan,

We’re doing everything we can to bring a respectable reputation back to the moving industry. We’re proud to be movers, and we love what we do! We hate to hear from people who have had such negative experiences with movers, because they often expect the worst from us! If we get our way, people will think of customer service, professionalism, and dependability when they hear about Cargo Cabbie. Great reviews like yours help us move in the right direction!

Many thanks!

Pick up a large glass dining table & chairs

I highly recommend Cargo Cabbie. Javier, the owner and John were very friendly, intelligent, great conversationalist and most importantly, trust-worthy and highly efficient. I drove with them for 2 hours and always felt safe with them & at home. They took care to gently wrap the 6'4" glass table insert and packed and unpacked my table and chairs at the pick-up point and at my home. Javier's story of why he started his business is inspiring! Javier & John are philosophical & have a great sense of humour. I enjoyed my time spent with them and as a female felt 110% safe at all times. I would definitely use their services again & again and I will always recommend them! They exceeded all of my expectations! Thank You Javier & John for taking good care of me and my merchandise! I wish Cargo Cabbie continued success! Take care, a customer forever, Barb from Toronto!

Hi Barb,

It’s so great to hear a review like this. We’ve heard of so many negative experiences from people who felt uneasy or intimidated by their movers. We try to provide a different type of mover-- one whose greatest strengths are their energy, attitude, and personality. Physical fitness and attention to detail are important for all of our employees, however, we believe that movers must have the soft skills, which make for the best customer experiences. Being personable, with positive energy and a sense of humor are absolute essentials for any Cargo Cabbie Crew member. Thanks for sharing Barb!
You are awesome!

3 Bedroom Condo to Loft relocation from The Beaches to Yorkville

I found first Javier and crew when they moved my next door neighbors last month.
The neighbors were very pleased with their service so i decided to give them a try.
Javier and i communicated over the phone a few times, and after getting a decent estimate i booked.
Javier came to the site personally with two of his movers, did a really nice job and put me completely at ease.
I had a few heavy expensive items(King bed, buffet,table,and a large wardrobe) and our condo had recently finished hardwood floors.
They made sure to wrap everything with clean blankets, carefully dis assemble several items, and even put mats down on the new floors.
No damage was done at all and the move was actually done slightly under the estimated time.
, in spite of the extra prep work, i believe i received a great value for what i paid and i would not think twice before hiring them again!
I highly recommend Javier and team to anyone looking for a stress free move

Thank you guys for helping us with such a stress full time for us !
We are already referring you to others!
Thank you Javier and crew- All the best
Alejo

Bookshelf move

I have hired Cargo Cabbie three times now. Most recently he picked up a bookshelf and delivered it to my place, on short notice. Each time the service was efficient, professional, and reliable with very pleasant staff!
