Colby Karges
CEO & Founder
Founded Onward on one belief: no family should face a parent's move alone. He runs the whole operation so you don't have to.
About Onward
A small local team that takes this personally
We started Onward Care Moving because we saw families trying to hold everything together during one of life's tender chapters. We're here so you don't have to.
We understand
Leaving a home of thirty or forty years is a tender moment.
Maybe you're coordinating from another city. Maybe you're selling the family home at the same time. There are belongings tied to a lifetime of memories, decisions that feel heavy, and more moving parts than anyone should juggle alone.
Most families end up calling movers, then a downsizing service, then junk removal, then a cleaner, then a realtor. Five or six vendors, five or six conversations, that many things to worry about. We do it differently. Onward Care Moving handles the whole transition, the sorting, the move, the clear-out and the clean, as one calm, coordinated process, with a single trusted point of contact from the first call to the last box.
The team
Meet the people behind Onward
Colin
Lead Mover & Co-Founder
Leads every move on the ground, handling a lifetime of belongings like they're his own.
Kyle Mooney
COO & Co-Founder
Builds the systems and quiet coordination behind every move, so nothing slips and no one feels like a number.
Lilly Karges
Care Director
Looks after the part of a move that isn't about boxes. On sorting days she sits beside your parent, unhurried, focused on companionship and the human side of downsizing.
Why Onward
The whole transition, in caring hands
A coordinated transition, not hours of labour
Most movers sell hours and compete on price. We manage the whole journey with trust, dignity, and one provider from the first call to the last box. Never a rushed, hourly job.
One provider, one call
Moving, downsizing, junk removal and cleaning, bundled under a single point of contact. No juggling five vendors at the hardest moment.
Insider senior-care credibility
Our Care Director spent years alongside older adults and their families at a local retirement residence. We know how these transitions actually unfold, and we lead with that care.
Treated like our own
Your parent's lifetime of belongings is handled with care at every step, by a Kitchener-Waterloo team that treats them as if they were our own.
Our care promise
If it isn't right, we make it right
- One point of contact from the first call to the last box, never a handoff between five vendors.
- A clear plan and quote up front, so there are no surprises on moving day.
- Your parent's belongings handled with patience and respect. If anything falls short of that, we put it right.
