Choose a Boulder Moving Company You Can Check Out Before You Call

Most people hiring movers in Boulder aren't short on options. They're short on ways to tell the difference.

So here's what you can verify about us without taking our word for anything. Our licensing is public record. Our BBB file goes back to 2004, and total complaints across nearly three decades can be counted on one hand. Our Google reviews are sitting there to read.

Our annual claims rate has stayed under 1% for most of our history. The industry figures we track put the norm closer to 5 or 6 percent. That's roughly a fifth of what's typical, and it isn't luck. It's a consequence of how the company is built.

Our Boulder office is at 1136 Pearl Street, Suite 200C.

We opened it in 2026, a return to the part of town where Gabriel Kierson started the company. Our warehouse in Broomfield has been at the same address for twenty years. There's a longer version about American Moving & Storage if you want it.

What Worries Boulder Homeowners Most, and How We Answer It

Price isn't the first thing people ask us about. These three things are.

Professional movers

Who Actually Shows Up at Your Door

The most common question we get isn't about cost. It's about the people walking into the house.

Your crew is made up of background-checked, workers-comp-covered career movers, a core of full-time employees plus long-tenured vetted crew we've worked with for years. Not day labor found that morning. We pay for a full background check on every hire before anyone sets foot in a customer's home, and our crews have been with us for 5.5 years. By the industry figures we track, the average elsewhere runs three to six months.

What Happens If Something Breaks

Full value protection is the default on every move we run. You don't ask for it, upgrade to it, or argue about it after the fact. You can choose to reduce coverage, but coverage starts at the top.

Floors, doorways, stairwells, and railings get covered before a single item moves. It's unglamorous work and it's most of the reason our claims number looks the way it does.

What If Your New Place Isn't Ready

This is what our vault system was built for. Containers come to your door, your belongings are loaded and sealed once at origin, and they travel to our climate-controlled Broomfield warehouse by forklift. In about 95% of cases they aren't opened again until delivery.

We own 500 vaults and a purpose-built side-load vault truck. Most local movers can't run this system because they don't own the trucks, the equipment, or the trained crews it takes. Fewer hands on your things means fewer chances for something to go wrong.

Ask us who's assigned to your move when you call. (303) 469-6683, Monday through Saturday.

Boulder Moving Services

We're full service by any practical definition. In nearly three decades we've handled studio apartments and four-truck cross-country estate relocations, thousands of pianos, hundreds of safes, a 300-gallon aquarium, original Picassos, 50-piece fine art collections, irreplaceable antique sculptures, and fine European crystal and porcelain.

Whatever's on your list, odds are we've moved something like it.

Boulder Local Moving

Local moves are where Boulder specifics matter most. The narrow staircases in the historic Victorians around Mapleton Hill and the Newlands. The tight driveways up in the foothills. Parking coordination on Pearl Street and around campus, and the building manager sign-offs that downtown buildings require.

The same career crew handles a one-bedroom off Baseline and a full family home in North Boulder. See our local moving services in Boulder for what's included.

Boulder Long Distance Moving

We offer three tiers depending on your budget and timeline. A Dedicated Van gives you exclusive use of a single truck. An Express Van is our own truck moving through the Bekins fleet, where we've been an agent since 2013. A Consolidated Shared Van is the lowest-cost option. 

Nobody hands your household off to a stranger mid-route. Here's how we handle long-distance moving from Boulder. Ask us which tier fits your dates and budget. (303) 469-6683.

Boulder Commercial Moving

We move Boulder's tech startups, bio research facilities, law firms, medical offices, and university departments. Laboratory equipment, secure files, server rooms, full office buildouts.

One accountable company start to finish matters more here than anywhere, because a Monday morning that begins with a search for the mover costs your team the week. We schedule around your operating hours, nights and weekends included. Learn about commercial moving in Boulder, or call (303) 469-6683 to walk your space with us.

Piano and Specialty Moving in Boulder

We've moved thousands of pianos. Uprights, baby grands, full concert grands, plus the stair and doorway work that Boulder's older housing stock usually demands.

Most movers avoid piano work. We take it. See our piano movers in Boulder page for details.

Packing and Vault Storage

Packing materials get chosen based on what's going in the box, so kitchen china and original artwork aren't treated the same way. Full pack, partial pack, or just the fragile things, and we'll deliver materials in advance if you'd rather do it yourself. Ask about full-service packing in Boulder.

When timelines don't line up, our containerized vault storage holds everything sealed until you're ready. Tell us your closing dates and we'll build the gap into the plan.

Senior Moving in Boulder

Downsizing after decades in a house is a different job than moving a young family, and it usually involves adult children coordinating from out of state. Our senior moving services in Boulder are built around that pace and that kind of decision-making. We're happy to talk it through with the whole family on one call.

What Moving in Boulder Actually Involves

A few things about this town that catch people out, whether they hire us or not.

Timing is the big one. Late May and mid-August are the hardest weeks of the year to book a mover in Boulder County, because the university empties out and fills back up. If your move lands in either window, get on a calendar as early as you can. That's true of any reputable company here, not just us.

Access is the second. Downtown and Hill moves often need parking coordination or a permit before a truck can sit where it needs to sit, and containers left in the public right of way have their own rules. We make that call before move day rather than discovering it on the curb.

Then there's the terrain. Foothills driveways are steep, narrow, and sometimes too tight for a full-size van, which means a shuttle and a longer day. Weather here turns fast enough that snow in April or October isn't unusual. We plan for both.

Tell us the address and we'll tell you what your move actually involves. Call (303) 469-6683 or request a free quote.

Get to Know Your New Boulder Neighborhood

If you're moving here rather than across town, the fun part is ahead of you. Boulder runs expensive compared to most of the country, and the tradeoff is a local economy built on tech, aerospace, and research with one of the most educated workforces in the United States. Sunshine most days of the year. Snow that shows up on its own schedule.

The Flatirons and Chautauqua Park are twenty minutes from almost anywhere in town. Eldorado Canyon has climbing people fly in for. Pearl Street Mall, the Boulder Museum of Contemporary Art, live music year round, and talks at the university that are open to anyone who shows up.

We've worked these neighborhoods since 1997, from Mapleton Hill down through South Boulder and out to Louisville and Lafayette moves. Ask your crew where to eat. They'll have opinions.

Why Boulder Trusts American Moving & Storage

The person accountable for your move owns the company

Gabriel Kierson founded American Moving & Storage in Boulder in 1997 and still runs it. When something on your move needs a decision, it gets made here, by someone whose name is on the company. Boulder County is expensive to operate in. Anyone still standing here after nearly three decades is still going to be standing when you need to reach them.

Nobody is learning on your house

Your crew has done this hundreds of times before yours. Our senior leads have been here ten, fifteen, and twenty years. The man who runs the warehouse and dispatch has been with us since 2013.

This company supports 26 households, twenty of them right here in Boulder County. That's why you see the same faces year after year instead of a new set every season.

You don't have to take our word for any of it

Boulder County's top brokerages send us their clients, including RE/MAX of Boulder, 8Z Realty, Porch Light, Compass, and Berkshire Hathaway. So do attorneys working closing dates that can't slip.

So do the logistics teams at two other major van line brands in this market. When people who move households for a living pick a mover, they're not picking on advertising.

Your Move, Step by Step

From the first survey to the last piece placed, here's the sequence.

01

Consultation

Every move starts with a real conversation about what you own, where it's going, and when. We do in-home and video estimates, and you get an accurate written estimate before anything is scheduled.

You won't get repriced on moving day.

02

Preparation

The crew arrives with materials and a plan already matched to your job. House protection goes down first, packing gets chosen item by item, and nothing about the day is improvised.

The planning work happened at the estimate.

03

Moving Day

Nothing gets loaded that hasn't been wrapped, inventoried, and accounted for. We keep you posted as we go.

04

Delivery and Unpacking

We place your items where you want them and offer unpacking help to get you settled faster. If your new home isn't ready, your things wait in sealed vaults until it is.
