About Us
Our History
Taylor Moving & Storage, founded by Al Taylor in 1959, started the company with one single-minded focus: delivering the best moving services possible. He started with one truck on his 21st birthday and grew the company through nothing short of blood, sweat, and determination. He was not going to settle for the status quo. He wanted to push the envelope.
Throughout his years, Al examined the landscape and continually innovated Taylor’s services to deliver the utmost value to his clients. He instilled the same focus into his sons, Rick and Russ, the current owners of Taylor Moving.
When Rick and Russ started, they got more than just positions and responsibilities. They earned them. From sweeping warehouse floors to performing local moving to doing cross-border and long-distance trips, they worked their way up the ladder.
When it was time for Al to pass the baton, his sons were ready to accept it and bought him out. Through sheer experience in both rendering and planning the moves, there is not a single move we cannot service.
Our Team
Rick and Russ do not deliver on this promise by themselves. “We understand that without our team, Taylor Moving and Storage couldn’t have become what it is today. We hire people from this community, and we take care of them. In turn, we have a loyal and hardworking group, from the front office right through to the drivers, who always go above and beyond for our clients,” said Russ Taylor. “Taylor Moving has always looked after the people who work here. It’s an element of our company that hasn’t changed in 50 years.”
