Moving Companies in Atlanta

When searching for moving companies in Atlanta maybe we have to search for moving companies actually in Atlanta or moving companies inside the perimeter and really Atlanta moving companies and not some companies with call centers in another state or another country but I want a moving company in Atlanta with real Atlanta people answering the phone.

One real Atlanta company answers their phone from our midtown location. Our 24 to 30 foot trucks are the white moving trucks with the blue logo moving truck on the side and our phone number in great big letters on the side with our motto ‘We Specialize in Everything’. That is kind of a funny tagline, as you can’t really specialize in everything. but we are really good at carrying and loading, relocating and unloading furniture and boxes for you Atlanta and Loganville Georgia moving experience.

Choosing a moving company can be a daunting project, there are so many choices and many solicitations for the lowest rates. But many people that have had bad experiences with the promises of the cheapest moving prices are wise enough to look for a moving company that has a reputation for good service and the resources to get the job done on time. Just check moving company reviews or look at one of our favorite resources for moving, www.movingscam.com – where a truly nice bunch of people have put together reviews and complaints about moving companies. It is sad to say there are just too many moving companies that are more interested in making a quick buck than in building a valued reputation.

Our reputation at Mark the Mover is one of the things that keeps our prices low. Since we get around half are business from referrals and repeats, we find that the largest number of people that visit our website at www.markthemover.com are using the search term ‘Mark the Mover’. And we will show up first and you get to see our phone number, that has not changed for years, 404-351-0018

When you call us at the number you will be speaking to our customer service department for Mark the Mover, not some broker or somebody in another country. All our phones are in midtown Atlanta as well as our trucks and our storage. In fact our 20,000 feet of moving storage is just a few hundred feet from an Atlanta fire station. We have always done business this way and that is how we will continue to do business at Mark the Mover, not like some listings you see for moving companies that are just phone numbers fronts where they try to get your business and sell your information to the most desperate companies that cannot market themselves.

In a way, I guess we should feel sorry for these moving companies that do not have our reputation to rely on. Mark the Mover was once a little company, three decades ago. But we built a reputation starting in Virginia Highland and have grown to where our fleet consists of almost 20 trucks. So check with your friends and neighbors, Mark the Mover is a pretty smart choice in moving companies. We aren’t some guy with a 800 number selling moving services out of their bedroom that set up a couple of yahoo local listings. You call our number and you won’t pay for a middle man, big advertising, or fancy graphics design, just are funny little moving truck logo on the side of our trucks and a whole lot of good service from friendly, courteous and neatly dressed moving crews. We hope to hear from you soon!

Household Relocation

What is the cheapest and safest way to move? According to www.movingscam.com the best way is to rent a truck and do it yourself. With your trusted friends and family and with the aid of the correct furniture dollies and plenty of packing materials and moving blankets, carefully load the truck with the heaviest items on the bottom. Fill voids with cushions, comforters, pillows and other small light items. For a good book on loading the moving truck go to the library and check out Tiers without Tears by John Watts and Steve McPherson.

That is what we think which could make you ask, then why do we need you guys? The answer is easy. Most moving companies try to tell you that they can do it just as cheap, just as well. But as www.movingscam.com points out, this is not true.

If you are going to do it yourself, or take your chances with the fly by night low price moving company market, make sure to visit www.movingscam.com and sign up for an account.

In memory of Danny Kahn

I was reminded by Merchant Circle

Upon searching listings, we came across an old business directory, probably of zero value in a modern web 2.0 context.

Merchant Circle is a location based directory also selling directory services, they tout Business of the Year in 2006. Specific listing by zip codes fall under moving services and are chaotic. Atlanta Movers show out of zip and this unreliable directory shows unlicensed moving service listings, shows some company that rhymes with Babbage and might have no relation to moving services or computational engines. Also shows a search box for moving services which leads to five ad listings, and again the babbage at the top under the ads and it turns out they provide small business funding. What hooey.

But not all the memories are great

But, despite finding such a mess, we found a bit of heartbreak from years passed.

The next listing was for Danny Delivers, which is interesting because Danny Kahn was murdered in 2008 in his Grant Park moving office, a murder that has never been solved. Danny was also a local musician who played at the Red Light Cafe in Midtown. His web link is not active and is hosted by a domain parking ad service.

Danny owned two rescue dogs, and also lived in the south Boulevard neighborhood. More at the AJC

Kahn’s body was discovered when firefighters responded to a well check at 10:30 pm on July 28, 2008. His family eulogized him, which can be found at Danny Kahn Eulogy. Danny died at 59 years old, he came from New York City and Great Neck, and his passing even reached the New York Times.

A contemporary of Danny, and the harmonica player was also a regular at Eddie’s Attic. Tom Wolf Harmonica is still one of the top backup talents sought by performers in a wide spectrum of sound from R&B to classical. – https://www.tomwolfmusic.fun/

Before you move

Some people say that you need less than a third of your stuff. I know that I hardly touch two thirds of the clothes in my closet. We found this article called “6 Genius Moving Tips from Reddit” at the North Milpitas Self Storage blog. Enjoy!
