Bekins began in 1891 in Sioux City, Iowa, with three horse-drawn moving vans and a commitment to become the most trusted moving and storage company in America.
What started as a small family operation has grown to become the nation’s largest moving company with more than 300 locations throughout the U.S. Over the years, we have expanded our business to include a full range of moving services for our residential, commercial and industrial customers.
Back in the old days, a strong back was the primary requirement for a successful move. But as the world changed, Bekins changed with it. In addition to strong backs, Bekins now leverages advanced technology and 24/7 online tracking giving you around-the-clock access to the location of your valuables and belongings.
Residential Movers
Throughout our decades in the industry we have moved hundreds of families as residential movers and storage providers. In a typical year, some 36 million people will relocate to a new home in a new city or town; many may even go out of state, across the country, or internationally. At Bekins of South Florida we understand this can be a stressful time for some families and we do our best to make your relocation as fast and easy as possible. One element to achieving a stress free move is friendly and professional customer service and we offer the best in the business.

You want to make sure animals are in their cat/dog carrier prior to the movers arriving.
Animals are curious and can get underfoot. If your dog isn’t good around strangers please
have them tied up or in their carrier. The moving company cannot transport any live animal
no dogs, cats, fish or reptiles are allowed in the truck.
If you have young children it is a good idea to do the move while they are in school or
daycare. You will be busy with the movers and it will be difficult for you to give your
child the attention he/she needs. It’s a much less stressful day for you if you children
are not home on moving day.
