Season's greetings and Happy New Year! What a winter we have been having so far here in the Upper Peninsula. Almost every night we're getting 2-6 inches of snow. I have used my snowblower more times in December than I did all of last year!
Speaking of the New Year, if you happened to be in downtown Marquette on New Year's Eve, you may have noticed our truck on site at the ball drop. This year we partnered with Double Trouble DJ's to help transport the stage, lighting, and music equipment to Downtown Marquette so we could ring in the new year right!

But now the party is over, and in Marquette, clearing snow has become a part-time job for thousands of residents. The snowbanks are shoulder high and frozen solid. Just pulling out of your driveway can quickly turn into an Arctic expedition that would make Shackleton wince.
All the while, Marquette Movers have been hard at work, helping our community and small businesses with their moving and hauling needs. From the Soo to the Keweenaw, Marquette Movers operates year-round to serve you!
Our team is equipped to handle whatever Mother Nature throws our way. Even when the temps drop, our experienced and professional crew of moving experts is trained to handle your belongings with utmost care.

Don't let the winter weather scare you! With water-resistant floor coverings, we are able to safely move your belongings in and out of your home while leaving the snow and salt outside where it belongs. We even have a "foul weather" contingency plan in place! If the circumstances arise where the weather conditions are just TOO severe to complete your move, we will reschedule your move date as soon as possible as our TOP priority. Our dispatch team keeps an eye on the weather forecast so we can plan for severe weather in advance and will work with you to make sure your move gets done on time, snow or shine!
Winter isn't just the "most wonderful time of the year" because of the holidays, but also because it is the perfect time to knock out that clutter in your garage or basement.
Marquette Movers offers more than just residential and commercial moving. We offer junk removal and hauling as well! Now is a great time to clear out the junk sitting in your garage or basement. Whether getting your property ready for sale or just looking to make some more space, we can help with the heavy lifting.
Speaking of heavy lifting, Marquette Movers also offers labor-only services. Hire us to load or unload your personal truck, trailer or U-Haul. Our team will load your belongings with the same expertise and efficiency we bring to each and every move.
Not moving? We can still help with a variety of projects to keep you busy through the doldrums of winter. We offer in-home services too! Need to freshen up your living space? Call us and we'll send our team to help complete your creative vision and rearrange the furniture within your home. We even have an amazing crew of packer/organizers on staff who will help you declutter your basement, closet, sewing studio, garage, etc. We are all spending more time inside these days so why not make your space more comfortable!
