Moving in Fort Wayne: Local Tips for a Smooth Transition

Planning a move in Fort Wayne? Whether you're relocating downtown, across neighborhoods, or into the suburbs, understanding the area can make a huge difference. Here are some local moving tips to help your transition go smoothly.

1. Time It Right
Fort Wayne traffic may not rival bigger cities, but key intersections like Coliseum Blvd and Lima Road can get backed up fast. Schedule your move outside of peak hours for a smoother ride.

2. Watch for Fort Wayne Events
Planning your move near the Three Rivers Festival or a TinCaps home game? Think again—event traffic and street closures could interfere with your timing.

3. Use TWO MEN AND A JUNK TRUCK
Getting rid of old furniture before the move? Our sister company specializes in helping you declutter and haul away unwanted junk with ease. Whether it's old furniture, appliances, or just piles of clutter, they are here to save the day!

4. Don’t Forget to Transfer Utilities
Contact Indiana Michigan Power, NIPSCO, and City Utilities a few days before the move so everything is up and running on day one.

5. Go Local with Your Movers
