Senior moving in Nepean
Established neighbourhoods close to everything. Here is what to know before you move, and how we make it easier.
Area overview
About Nepean
Nepean covers a wide band of established neighbourhoods west and south of central Ottawa, from Bells Corners and Craig Henry to areas along Merivale Road and Baseline. Much of it was built from the 1950s to the 1980s, so mature trees and bungalows are common.
It is a popular choice for seniors because it sits close to central Ottawa, has plenty of services and is home to Queensway Carleton Hospital.

Moving challenges
What to expect when moving in Nepean
Every area has its quirks. Our crews move in Nepean regularly, so we plan for them before move day.
- Older homes often have narrow halls and tight basement stairs, so we measure large pieces first
- Decades of belongings in one home make sorting and donations a big part of the job
- Mature trees and low wires on some streets affect where the truck can park
