We’re getting a 2nd truck!
March 24, 2010 – 7:01 pmMoving is obviously a demanding business. The stress inducers are myriad: traffic on 14th st bridge, a boxspring that absolutely cannot fit up a narrow and ancient Capitol Hill staircase, the elevator that
suddenly freezes between the fifth and sixth floor becoming a creaky prison, etc. But nothing challenges me as much as scheduling. I am conspicuously proud of the fact that though I get hundreds of moving requests a week and we’ve completed thousands of moves together, we’ve never once had to reschedule at any time (well, save for a couple days this winter when those blizzards paralyzed our Nation’s Capital).
For the last year we’ve had to turn away several times more clients than we took on and I regret not being able to help more people especially when they hear about us from a friend or family member. But we’re still pretty small and I’ve tried to grow slowly so that we can maintain a level of service we can be proud of. All of our movers are college grads (William and Mary, Princeton, Pitt, AU, Arizona,
Kalamazoo) and have all either worked at the store or been good friends of mine before joining up. We know, like, and trust each other which makes for an adept and solid team.
Finally though, we’re getting another, larger truck, so we should be able to take on about twice the business starting the first week in April. It’ll be the same conscientious and efficient service. Send us an email and let us show you first hand!
