Punctual

Friendly

Small Independent Business

I'm the guy on the phone and the guy that shows up. I’ve always relied on reputation and referrals. Tired of using apps, paying hidden fees, getting strangers to show up? You can trust me in your home, with your relatives & pets..and with your stuff. I'm not going to blindside you with hidden fees or try and take advantage of a situation. I don't flake, I'm not crazy and I'm not a meathead.

Ian the Mover...the Origin Story

I started in the moving business in 2004 when I bought my Toyota Tacoma. Still driving it 20 years later...

2004-09 I was “Big Kid with a Truck” on Craigslist.
2009-16 I signed up on Yelp. Ian the Mover quickly took the #1 spot in the moving category with perfect 5 star reviews and held it straight through into...2016 when I sold it. Yes I sold it... As Ian’s Movers.
2016-17 I traveled and soul searched. I made music. I took a solid year off. Came back to the business rebranded as Captain Smith.
2017-2024 Ive been on taskrabbit...read hundreds more 5 star reviews there. (but hire me directly, no app fees)
