What Does It Cost to Move?

Hiring a moving company, even to move locally, can be quite costly, starting well over $1,000. At Golden Real Estate, we can help you eliminate or at least reduce that cost.

In 2004 we purchased a Ford E350 box truck, and since then hundreds of clients — and non-clients who purchased one of our listings — have saved over $250,000 by using this truck instead of hiring movers or even renting a U-Haul.  The truck is equipped with moving blankets and an appliance dolly, and we also provide free moving boxes, packing paper and bubble wrap (which we accept for re-use by future clients).

When not in use by clients, we make the truck available to community organizations and non-profits, such as the Christian Action Guild and the dozen or so Jeffco churches which provide temporary shelter to homeless families under the auspices of Family Promise (formerly Interfaith Hospitality Network).

The truck is used every 2 or 3 months when our “Styrofoam Corral” fills with polystyrene, and we take a truckload of the stuff to ACH Foam Technologies in Denver for recycling.

Buy or sell with Golden Real Estate, and you can use the truck too!
