Since 1936,
Daniels Moving and Storage has been independently owned and operated. R. C. Daniels, the original president of the company, passed the torch to his son Guy Daniels after operating the business for many years. In 1988, David Smith purchased the company to enjoy more than 30 years of a successful career providing high quality residential packing and moving services in the Upper Valley.
Over the years, Daniels Moving orchestrated commercial endeavors for entities such as Dartmouth Hitchcock Medical Center, Five Colleges Book Sale, and many other local institutions. Having maintained these relationships with clients, providing professional services to many of the same local businesses, and continuing to grow and operate more efficiently, Daniels Moving has become a fixture in the Upper Valley region.

The busiest times for moving companies are typically during the summer months, May-September.
If you are planning a move during that time you should make arrangements early.
Friday and Saturdays are big moving days so if you have flexibility in your schedule it can
be easier to get a date during the week rather than a weekend.
On the day of the move you need to be present. There is paperwork to sign and you need to
show the movers exactly what is being moved. After the movers have loaded the truck you will
be ask to do a walk through. That is the time to point out anything that may have been missed
once the truck drives away they are done.
At the unload they will place boxes in rooms based on the rooms written on the boxes
(ie., bedroom, kitchen, garage). Furniture will be placed in the location you specify.
It is helpful if you already have a basic idea where you want furniture placed.
If the movers have to keep rearranging and switching furniture around it will take longer
and you are paying hourly.
