Moving our community forward

At TWO MEN AND A TRUCK Naperville, we believe that giving back to the community is an essential part of who we are and the kind of company we continuously strive to be. Throughout the years, we’ve developed a partnership with Anderson Humane that extends beyond our annual Movers for Mutts® donation drive. Just before the holiday season, our team volunteered time and muscle to help relocate their Wildlife Center to the Elburn Forest Preserve. We safely moved several offices worth of furniture, supplies, and equipment to the new location. Our team understood the importance of a smooth transition to ensure the animals received seamless care and attention. We’re proud to serve as Fox Valley’s most trusted moving partner – one move at a time. 

TWO MEN AND A TRUCK | Kane/DuPage supports non-profits throughout the Fox Valley whenever possible. One of our favorite programs, The 3:11 Project ®, recently called on us to help them move items they had collected through their latest fundraiser. Our team moved almost 9,000 lbs. of donated items that day. Now that’s a lot of community love! We’re so happy to be a part of such a wonderful event.

We ended the year with full hearts at TWO MEN AND A TRUCK Kane/DuPage, after helping with Joey’s Afterglow Holiday Toy Drive. This event is held each year in honor of Joey Ventimiglia, who was lost to pediatric cancer in 2018. Our trucks visited participating schools throughout the Fox Valley; by the end of the day, they had collected enough toys to fill more than two semi-trucks! All donations were given to children in need through WGN Morning News Toy Drive and Help Heroes of Ukraine. Our TWO MEN AND A TRUCK team was grateful to be part of this inspiring event once again. If interested in participating next year, please contact our office at susan.andersen@twomen.com.

From Friday night lights to Saturday morning moves...At TWO MEN AND A TRUCK® North Aurora, we take great pride in being a family-owned business rooted in the communities we serve. One of our favorite things to do is support local schools whenever we can. In that spirit, we're thrilled to continue our advertising partnerships with both the Batavia and West Aurora high school booster clubs for the upcoming school year. From uniforms and equipment to travel expenses for competitions, booster funds do so much to support athletic programs and promote school spirit for all students. We wish everyone the best of luck this year – both on the field and in the classroom!

Go Bulldogs! Go Blackhawks!

Movers for Moms® is in full swing during the month of April! With the help of our community partners, our North Aurora office will be collecting essential items and gifts to be delivered to local shelters in honor of Mother’s Day. First launched in 2007, this annual donation drive is one of our favorite traditions. Check out our Facebook and Instagram pages for details, including wish-lists and drop-off locations. All donations will go directly to Mutual Ground in Aurora and Turning Point of McHenry. Please email susan.andersen@twomen.com with any questions or to host a collection box at your business or workplace. 

As our Movers for Mutts® campaign comes to a close for this year, we find ourselves humbled by the generosity of everyone involved. From the local businesses that graciously served as donation sites to all those who contributed, we sincerely thank you. Each and every donation makes a difference for the animals and staff at Anderson Humane in Elgin and Helping Paws Animal Shelter of Woodstock. Over seven hundred essential items and supplies were collected this year. Our staff organized, boxed and delivered the goods just in time for the Thanksgiving holiday. This included not only food and grooming supplies, but blankets, towels and plenty of toys for the animals. It was a heartwarming delivery to say the least.

Visit each shelter’s website for more ways to support the important work they do. If you would like to participate in next year’s Movers for Mutts®, please contact our office.

Thanks again to everyone who supported this project. Happy Holidays from all of us at TWO MEN AND A TRUCK®.

Mother Nature brought the weather, and Blackberry Farm in Aurora provided the venue. It was another successful Touch-A-Truck this past month, and we had a blast! Our truck was clean, shiny, and ready for show at this annual Fox Valley Park District event. As usual, our TWO MEN AND A TRUCK vehicle was one of the more popular attractions among the pre-K crowd. With a clean cab upfront and plenty of empty boxes in the back for play, the little ones kept busy. Everyone was able to grab some swag – and shade – under our information tent.  It was a beautiful morning; we’re already looking forward to next year!

At TWO MEN AND A TRUCK Kane/DuPage, our commitment to excellence extends beyond moving services; it includes giving back to and staying involved in our community whenever we can. Every year, our office takes part in a heartwarming tradition: shortly after Thanksgiving weekend, we head over to The Holmstad Retirement Community in Batavia and help decorate for the holidays. For well over a decade and counting, we’ve rolled up our sleeves for storage runs, setting up trees, and draping lights. It’s a chance for us to connect with the residents and to share in a little merry making at the same time. It’s easily one of our favorite days of the year, and the best way we know to start off the holiday season.

We take great pride in assisting the Springbrook Community Church make Operation Christmas Child happen. They collect hundreds of shoe boxes filled with items that will be shipped overseas to children in need. The donated shoe boxes are all packaged in larger boxes and we transport them to the shipping company. It is so much fun every year and so heartwarming thinking about the joy these shoe boxes will bring to children around the world!

It is very important for us to help needy families in our local communities as well. We had such a great experience with Toys For Tots. We have been so lucky to be able to assist them with their donation box collection, toy sorting and distribution to the children. Seeing a child in need get to choose their own brand new toy for Christmas is unforgettable.

Proud to support DuKane A.B.A.T.E and their annual food and toy run by providing them with needed boxes for their collections. We are always honored to work with great people doing wonderful things for our community.  A.B.A.T.E. (A Brotherhood Aimed Towards Education) is a motorcyclists rights organization dedicated to preserving motorcycle, off-road, & ATV riders rights through education, safety, awareness, and political activities.
