CAMBRIDGE SANTA CLAUSE PARADE

This year we took to the streets of Cambridge as Santa's Official Movers for the Cambridge Santa Clause Parade. It was a cool and wet night, with no snow in sight. Our TMT crew, along with our Mikey, came together and decorated our truck. As we walked the parade route, we spread good Christmas cheer. From the staff at TWO MEN AND A TRUCK Kitchener, Cambridge and Waterloo®, we wish everyone a safe and joyful Christmas!
