Movers in Missouri

What began as a weekend side gig in a small Kansas town has blossomed into one of the most respected moving companies serving the Kansas City and Denver metropolitan areas. Moving Proz was founded by Derek Shaw, who launched the business while working full-time in an airplane hangar disassembling aircraft for parts. Driven by his desire to create a better life for his family, Shaw started by renting trucks from a local hardware store and advertising free services on Craigslist, primarily helping college students with their relocations. The company reached a pivotal milestone in 2018 when Kelli Warren joined as co-owner, transforming Moving Proz into an SBA-certified woman-owned and minority-led business. Warren, who previously worked as Lead Graphic Designer for VIZIO, brought her creative expertise and business acumen to the operation, helping to elevate the company's brand presence and operational excellence. Under their collaborative leadership, Moving Proz has earned numerous accolades, including the prestigious Angie's List Super Service Award for multiple consecutive years. What distinguishes Moving Proz in the competitive relocation industry is their comprehensive approach to customer care combined with their diverse leadership perspective. As a female-led organization, the company emphasizes strong communication, attentive problem-solving, and innovative thinking across all aspects of their business. This philosophy has helped them build an impressive service portfolio that extends beyond standard residential relocations to include commercial moves, piano transportation, packing services, and both local and long-distance relocations. Their thoughtful expansion into both Kansas City and Denver markets demonstrates their strategic growth approach while staying true to their customer-first values. With an A+ Better Business Bureau rating and active American Moving and Storage Association membership, Moving Proz continues to raise the bar for quality and reliability in the industry. The evolution from Shaw's weekend side job to Warren and Shaw's thriving enterprise illustrates how vision, diversity in leadership, and unwavering commitment to excellence can transform a small local operation into a respected regional moving company that treats each client like family.
