Featured Team Member
Marco
Our employee of the month for August is Marco Perez! He has been with TWO MEN AND A TRUCK® since April 2024, but this short time has not stopped him from being one of our top drivers day in and day out. For the month of August, Marco completed 34 moves with a 5.00 mover rating and a perfect 100% referral rate.

Manager
Cody Uidl
I started out with TWO MEN AND A TRUCK as a Mover, then was quickly promoted to Driver. After Driving for about a year I moved into sales to fill our Onsite Estimate position, then transitioned over to Logistic, then Hiring and Training. Every job is going to have its good days and its bad days, but one of the things I like most about this job is that it doesn't feel like work most of the time. Meeting new people and teaching them tips and tricks and making them better movers is very rewarding. In my free time, I like to golf, play shuffleboard, bowl, and play softball.

She joined the TWO MEN AND A TRUCK family in 2013 and has been using her marketing superpowers to help manage both St. Louis and Chicago locations.

Joel began his TWO MEN AND A TRUCK career many years ago in Lansing, Michigan. He soon accepted a job in the St. Louis office. He was homesick, but he stuck it out.

Director of Operations - Franchisee
Brian S.
Hey, meet Brian! He's a fantastic addition to our team at TWO MEN AND A TRUCK, and his experience within our system is truly impressive. Starting as a mover right here in the Saint Louis office, he then ventured off to various other locations, playing a key role in spreading our brand nationwide. Brian's enthusiasm for the moving industry is infectious, and his knowledge is invaluable to us. When he's not busy at work, you'll find him out on the softball field, having a blast. And let's not forget his lovely family—his wife and three adorable kids—who bring him so much joy. Brian is a true asset to our team, and we're lucky to have him!
