Our History
Williams - Commitment and Quality Service For over Three Generations
History Right

Our story is one that goes all the way back to 1929 when our founder, George James Williams borrowed $50 to purchase a Dodge Touring Van. With two helpers, a great care for people, and a vision of success, Williams Transfer was born. Through his commitment to the unique moving needs of his customers, Williams Transfer steadily grew and expanded - along with its reputation as a quality mover.

To help with his father's expanding business; George "Sonny" Williams joined the company in 1949 at age sixteen. This was also the year Williams Transfer became known as Williams Moving & Storage.

Sonny's dedication, vision, and care for people took the business to even higher levels. He became an ambassador of the moving industry and asource of inspiration for all who knew him. Sonny served as president of United Van Lines (Canada) from 1968 to 1972, pioneered the development of domestic moving containers in the 1970's, and added Williams International in 1981. Sonny's global network and strong leadership firmly established Williams at the forefront of the industry.

In 1996, his son George "Jim" Williams followed the path of his father and grandfather and continues to expand the family business and its reputation through a commitment to personalized service, care for all employees, and by delivering what is promised without exception.

 
Today, under the leadership of Jim Williams, Williams Moving & Storage is the largest family-owned moving organization in Canada with over 500 employees, 22 offices, 1,300 pieces of equipment, and over 36 warehouses across the nation.

As a result of three generations of quality service - Williams has established itself as the trusted name in moving.
