Moving forward with community

Movers for Moms® is TWO MEN AND A TRUCK®’s nationwide donation drive to support women and children living in crises. Like TWO MEN AND A TRUCK®, Journeyhome.org is committed to helping all families enjoy the security and comfort of a home, sweet home. The organization has helped reduce homelessness in the Greater Hartford region by 75%. A roof is helpful, but not yet a home. That is why TWO MEN AND A TRUCK  partners with Journeyhome.org to collect essential toiletries, cleaning supplies, bedding and kitchen furnishings to provide essential creature comforts for women and families in shelters and transitional housing. in 2019 our Movers for Moms® Drive  collected over 1100 items through the support of local partnerships. To learn more about the Journeyhome.or drive to end homelessness, go to Journeyhome.org.

When Fresh Start Pallet Program, an organization committed to helping homeless learn trade skills by converting wooden pallets into outdoor furnishings, needed to merge its operation from three locations to one, they called upon TWO MEN AND A TRUCK in Central CT.  Deeply discounting the move, two crews dedicated 12 hours each to moving over 5,000 pieces from three locations. From the low ceiling and meandering sunless basement of Hartford churches to its brand-new sun streaming studio complete with above ground loading dock, TWO MEN AND A TRUCK Central CT helped the Pallet Program get off to their "fresh start"! To learn more about Fresh Start Pallet Program and order their furnishings go to freshstartpalletproducts.com.

As a partner in the Best Cleaners COATS FOR CT program we helped collect and distribute  nearly 14,000 coats this past holiday season. As "Movers Who Care®" TWO MEN AND A TRUCK® was proud to lend our containers to house coat collections and dispatch our crews and trucks to distribute the coats to far-reaching The Salvation Army in Connecticut and Rhode Island locations

At TWO MEN AND A TRUCK® our core values include giving back to the community and caring for others, which is why we support Connecticut Alliance of Foster & Adoptive Families with the delivery of dresses and tuxedos to their annual Avenue of Dreams Conference. This yearly event, hosted by the Connecticut Alliance of Foster And Adoptive Families Inc. CAFAF, benefits foster, adoptive, relative care teens and all teens within the DCF community. Each teen has the opportunity to pick their own free prom dress or tuxedo and matching accessories. In 2019 we helped with the donation of 800 prom dresses and 200 tuxedos.

As the "Movers Who Care®", we strive to help our community move forward. That is why we've partnered up with Special Olympics Connecticut as one of our community partners! For every reply card we receive, we dedicate support to help fund the Winter Penguin Plunge challenge where our crew will charge into the River in Middleton on to support our special state athletes! In addition, our crews and trucks transport food supplies and athletic equipment across the state in support of the Fall Unified Games and Winter Olympic Events. We share the values of Special Olympics with regard to the athlete's 5-star "can do" attitude.

Team works makes the dream work. That's why TWO MEN AND A TRUCK Central CT is happy to support the American Cancer Society's Making Strides against Breast Cancer Walk with our Value Flex® containers and crew. Each year, Breast Cancer Walks celebrate survivors and raise funds to help our world move forward breast cancer free. Our containers help stage and deliver the supplies needed to support the walk and our crews help load and deliver these essentials.

The Glastonbury Apple Harvest Music Festival and Road Race is one of Connecticut's most popular events with three stages of live music, amusement rides, craft vendors, food trucks, a fully stocked Harvest Pub, and the Angry Orchard 5K Road Race on the festival’s closing day. You can imagine the coordination and signage that goes into setting up for this favorite event! That's why the CT River Valley Chamber turned to TWO MEN AND A TRUCK for weeklong support. Our ValueFlex® container served as a staging ground for all signage and our crews helped load, unload, set up the event and move this happening forward! A five stat crew for a five star event. Count us in for next year!!

2020 has brought us challenges beyond anything we ever thought possible. In times of uncertainty, we didn't want to forget those in need. TWO MEN AND A TRUCK Rocky Hill, in conjunction with Best Cleaners has helped collect, clean, and deliver over 11,000 coats to The Salvation Army in Connecticut. 

Hartford, CT., June 15, 2020 — TWO MEN AND A TRUCK will be shipping beds, dressers, tables, chairs, and bedside tables donated by IKEA for more than one hundred households moving into their new homes. “We are beyond delighted to make sure that every person in Connecticut has a place to stay safe at home,” said TWO MEN AND A TRUCK local franchise owner Doug Sudell. “We pride ourselves on giving back to our community and are thrilled to be part of the state’s effort to make sure that everybody has a place to call home.”
