Westmount Moving Pledges to Deliver on its Promises
Unfortunately, the moving industry does not have any significant barriers to entry. Consequently, there are far too many unprofessional movers that do a poor job and leave clients in the lurch.
It is a constant battle for professional and reputable companies to prove to clients that doing business with fly by night operators might appear cheaper but can be far more costly in the long run and cause a lot of headaches.
This article is a great example of how customers suffer in the hands of a bad mover. Researching the moving company with the BBB and selecting a mover that is a member in good standing with the Canadian Association of Movers (CAM) is a good way to ensure that your mover will deliver on its promises.

Lower Canada College High School – Food Drive
As part of our ongoing commitment to the community, we donated boxes to be used in a food drive by Lower Canada College High School.
I want to take this opportunity to sincerely thank you for your donation of the boxes to LCCHS. Rob dropped the boxes off at the house and I brought them to the school. The staff that organizes the can food drive was thrilled by your donation. Every year it becomes more and more difficult to collect boxes and food. The boxes will play a vital role in the distribution of nonperishable food to needy families in the city of Lasalle in the next couple of weeks. I can’t express to you through this e-mail how humbling this whole process is. To see the smile on peoples faces for a simple box of canned food and a frozen turkey is unforgettable. It keeps me grounded and thankful for what I have.
Once again thank you and Happy Holiday
