Mulder’s Moving & Storage began back in 1948 with Don Mulder at the helm and Robert Benthin as his second in command. Bob and Esther Benthin purchased the company from Mulder in 1976 and soon had their three sons involved in the business with them. Now, 70 years later, the Benthin family still owns and manages the company with one of their sons serving as president. Two of Bob’s and Esther’s grandchildren are also involved in the company.
Mulder’s Moving and the Benthin family have built up an excellent reputation in the West Michigan area for having the best moving crew, the best customer service and a long-term commitment to leaving all of its customers smiling and thrilled with the work done for them.
We are located in Kalamazoo, Michigan just south of the US-131 Business Loop. With a fleet of trucks and vehicles, trained and uniformed crew members and a complete office staff Mulder’s is ready to handle your move no matter how large or small.
We offer full-service storage facilities totaling over 30,000 square feet and conveniently located in Kalamazoo, MI. Our facilities are climate-controlled and have 24-hour security. They are available on a short- or long-term basis with monthly rates depending on your needs.

What are the different types of moves?
LOCAL MOVE: By definition, a local move is any residential move whose origin and destination are within 40 miles of each other within Michigan. For example, a move from Kalamazoo to Plainwell in Southwest Michigan, or Grand Rapids to Rockford in West Michigan.
MICHIGAN MOVE: A Michigan move is any residential move within Michigan where the homes are more than 40 miles from each other. For example, a move from Kalamazoo in Southwest Michigan to Muskegon in West Michigan. Or, a move from Grand Rapids in the lower peninsula to Sault Ste Marie in Upper Michigan.
NATIONAL MOVE: Looking to move across state lines? Believe it – we can take you there! Although we are a small, local company, we can perform these large scale moves as we are an Agent for Wheaton Interstate Moving! A national move is any residential move whose origin is in one state and whose destination is in a different state. For example, if you are moving from Michigan to Illinois, Ohio, Wisconsin, Tennessee, or any other state.
INTERNATIONAL MOVE: Moving to another country? Yes, we can help! Although we are small and local, we have the resources to take you almost anywhere in the world! An international move is any residential move whose origin starts in one country and whose destination is in another country.
You have the right to receive an estimate based on a physical (in-house) survey of your
shipment. Under the regulations, your mover must base your estimate (either binding,
non-binding, or not-to-exceed), on a physical survey of the household goods to be moved if
the goods are located with a 50-mile radius of your mover’s (or his agent’s) place of business.
You may elect to waive this requirement for a physical survey, but if you elect to do so,
you must sign a written waiver of your rights.
In all likelihood, you will find that an on-site estimate based on a physical survey
of the items that you plan on moving will be more accurate than an estimate that you
provide to your mover over the telephone or the Internet. So, unless circumstances warrant
(normally due to the time constraints of a short-notice move or because you are only shipping
a few items) think carefully before you elect to waive the required physical survey
of your shipment.
