Why verify a moving company?
Before entrusting belongings, equipment or goods to a company, it can be useful to verify its legal identity and certain publicly available information. This does not replace a conversation about your project, but it can help confirm that the name shown on a quote corresponds to an identifiable business.
DTHV publishes its basic business information here so individuals and organizations can verify it through official sources. This page presents the legal business name, Quebec enterprise number, registration status, declared activities and insurance information provided by DTHV.
For a residential move, these details can help compare a quote with the business issuing it. For a commercial assignment, they can also support an initial administrative review before discussing timing, building access, subcontracting or a quote.
Reviewing a business record alone cannot evaluate every part of a project. It is a practical starting point: you can then ask questions about your situation, keep the information you receive and request a quote that describes the proposed work.
Verify DTHV’s legal identity
The company’s legal name is Déménagement et transport haute vitesse inc. Its Quebec enterprise number is 1181912776.
Enter this number in the Quebec Enterprise Register to verify DTHV. You can then compare the register information with the details shown in a quote, invoice or commercial communication.
DTHV’s listed status is Registered. This wording describes the company’s status in the register. The Enterprise Register remains the appropriate source for confirming the current status when you perform your verification.
The enterprise number helps identify a specific business when its name is long or includes terms that may resemble those used by other businesses. Keep this number with the documents for your project if you want to repeat the verification later.
Declared activities
- General freight trucking
- Moving and storage of used goods
These details describe activities shown in the register. They are not a promise about every possible assignment. To confirm whether a service fits your needs, describe your project in a quote request and ask questions before booking.
Liability insurance
DTHV states that it carries $2,000,000 in liability insurance. Proof of insurance may be requested from the company.
No policy number, complete certificate or private information is published on this page. The stated amount is reference information; it does not replace reviewing an insurance document or receiving confirmation suited to a specific assignment.
If a building, contract or project owner requires a particular document, ask what information can be provided and confirm that it meets the requirement.
How to verify DTHV yourself
Through the Enterprise Register
Open the official Quebec Enterprise Register page. Enter Quebec enterprise number 1181912776 in the search field, accept the service conditions and view the corresponding result. The official service allows an enterprise search by enterprise number, name or related words. Compare the legal name, status and declared activities with the information presented by DTHV.

Why this information is useful
For an individual customer
For an individual customer, checking the legal name, enterprise number and contact details before booking helps keep a clear record of the company they are dealing with. It can also make it easier to compare a quote, the information received and official sources.
For a business or project owner
For a business, property manager or project owner, these details can support an initial administrative review before discussing an assignment, subcontracting arrangement or quote. They do not replace requirements specific to a contract, building or procurement process. Each organization remains responsible for confirming the documents and information required by its own process.
Information to check before assigning a move
Before accepting a quote, confirm that the company name, contact details and project details match what was discussed. Ask for a clear explanation of the type of move, addresses, access, requested date and services planned.
If the project involves particular constraints, mention them early: elevator access, stairs, restricted access, moving volume or building requirements. Administrative verification and a detailed discussion of the assignment complement each other; neither replaces the other.
Review the information before confirming the assignment, especially if an address, date, access condition or scope of work has changed. This step helps communicate useful facts to the company and ask for clarification about anything that still needs confirmation.
