Often times during the home or business moving process, one important aspect can get overlooked: storage.

We have several long-distance moving options depending on the amount of household goods you need to move and your budget.

Our 16-foot containers are loaded with your belongings by the nearest franchise and then transported by a third party carrier to the franchise closest to your new place of residence. Our professionally trained movers then deliver everything to your new home. Value Flex allows us to be more competitive with the van lines by using more flexible pricing guidelines.
Cardboard crates are a great option if you have only a few things to move, perfect for small apartment moves or to out of state universities. Our cardboard crates are loaded with the same care we provide on our expedited moves. A third party carrier takes them to the franchise that will then handle the unload for you.
Our customers often call on us to get the treadmill out of the basement or the new king-sized mattress and box springs upstairs to the master bedroom. People often ask if they can just hire the two men to move rearrange furniture inside the house, which you can! Let TWO MEN AND A TRUCK® do the heavy lifting. We would be happy to help with any moving needs you may have, large or small.
We have recently added a new service line, junk removal(opens in a new window)! This is a great opportunity for customers to prepare for their upcoming move by getting rid of everything they do not want to take to the new house. We can also come and take everything that you have been holding onto that you just want to get rid of. This is a great service for yard waste, scrap metal, storage unit cleanouts, mattress, furniture, appliance or carpet removal and general spring clening. Whether you choose curbside pickup or full service junk removal, we will provide you with exceptional customer service throughout the entire process! We recycle, reduce and reuse whenever possible.
