Oakwood is Dayton's grand old suburb — brick Tudors and stately colonials on tree-lined streets off Far Hills Avenue and Shroyer Road, many dating to the NCR era and full of antiques, pianos and art. A move here is about care, not speed: original hardwood, plaster walls and heirloom pieces that have to be handled right. Kevin leads these jobs himself, and our crew treats the house like it's our own.
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 estates near Hills & Dales and Smith Gardens to the Tudors along Oakwood Avenue, these are homes with fine finishes and heavy, valuable pieces — the kind of move where the crew you send matters more than anything else.
Pricing: $118/hr for two movers and a truck, $168/hr for three, one-hour minimum, pads and boxes included. Larger Oakwood homes go flat — a four-bed with a full basement typically lands $1,760–$2,850 in writing after we walk it.
My brother Kevin runs the antiques, pianos and safes personally, so the family heirlooms and the baby grand ride on our own padded truck with our own crew — never subcontracted out.

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.
