Default recommendation for residential moving service?

Any recommendations for a professional moving service (residential) that will take care of packing and moving within the GTA?
Thanks.

Using Avenue Moving at the moment with no issues so far (halfway done). They're not the cheapest but cheap often comes with its own set of complications. You should do a little research on the topic and check on the BBB website. There are a lot of dodgy operators out there - see the following link:

Used Tippett Richardson for a complex move. Absolutely first class and zero damage.

This past spring, we moved. We had not moved in 19 years. I was quite surprised how much the industry has changed. I know in the 90's, we used Tippet. They were super slow and very expensive. In the early 2000's, I used a no name, should have been called "Junkie Moving" if you understand what I mean. 3 guys. Super fast and careful. For the last move, having heard horror stories of furniture being held hostage, we interviewed 3 separate companies and chose one. There were no issues but alot more expensive than I expected. Having said that, times are much different now.
