Kettering is the biggest of Dayton's south-side suburbs, and most of what our crew loads here are the mid-century ranches and split-levels lining the streets off Far Hills Avenue and Wilmington Pike. These are settled neighborhoods — attached garages, finished basements, big trees close to the drive — where the job is less about tight access and more about a full house that's been lived in for thirty years. Kevin and I grew up moving homes exactly like these.
Point us through the place room by room, flag the stairs and tell us where a truck can sit — a firm number comes back that same day, in writing.
Pads, shrink wrap and tape already sit inside that figure, so nothing gets re-tallied after the ramp comes down.
Kitchens get dish barrels, closets get wardrobe cartons, and anything glass or stone rides in a crate we build to fit.
Whoever sizes up your home is the lead on the truck and the one who runs the closing walk-through — no hand-off midway.
From the blocks near Lincoln Park and the Fraze out to Oak Creek and Indian Riffle, a Kettering move is usually a settled family home with a lower level to clear and a garage that decades have quietly filled.

By the hour it’s $118 for two movers and a truck or $168 for three — one-hour minimum, with pads, dollies, shrink-wrap and wardrobe boxes already baked in. We hand you the flat number on paper after the walkthrough, and it doesn’t budge on move day.

We handle: Tell us how many rooms, whether it’s stairs or an elevator, and the nearest legal spot for the truck; a flat written price follows.
What helps most: Keep any building COI rules and elevator windows nearby — that’s what turns the number from a guess into an exact figure.
We handle: Any freight elevator gets reserved and we clear curb space with the city, so the truck parks at your door instead of down the street.
What helps most: Line up the two dates — when you’re out of the old place and into the new one — and pass us the tighter of the two.
We handle: Every piece of furniture goes under a moving blanket, upholstery gets shrink-wrapped, and bed frames and table legs come apart into bags tagged with their own hardware.
What helps most: Mark each box with the room it’s headed to, and carry papers, keys and anything small and valuable yourself rather than loading them.
We handle: Whoever loads the truck is who unloads it — pieces land where you point, beds go back together, and we haul off the packing debris.
What helps most: Walk the place with the crew lead before the truck rolls off, while anything still left to fix costs you nothing.
Give us the particulars and a flat, written quote lands in your inbox by end of day — priced around your place, your date and every item going on the truck. Nothing owed, just a straight figure you can build a budget on.
Typically answered inside one business hour.
