Our Story
Tippet-Richardson has a long history of moving offices, homes, and apartments all across the world. Our history isn't only something we're proud of, it's the groundwork for the reputation we have today.
Who We Are
Founded in 1927, Tippet-Richardson is one of Canada's oldest and most established moving and storage companies. Basil Tippet and C.A. Richardson started their operation in Toronto, Ontario. Their primary goal was to provide high-quality residential and commercial moving services to the surrounding area. The two owners' humble beginnings consisted of a rented warehouse and a moving van, from which they serviced the eastern U.S., Ontario, and Quebec. Back then, there was no Canadian highway into Western Canada. In order to make its western deliveries, the company was required to travel through the U.S.
Our Mission
Our primary mission isn't all that different than it was in 1927. We still seek to provide high-quality residential and commercial moving services to our surrounding areas.
