Residential Moving Services

Dow Moving understands how intimidating moving can feel. It was precisely this understanding that inspired Michael Graham to start a local residential moving service with a personal touch!

Professional Residential Movers in Ohio

Moving into a new home is a big step, and the right crew makes all the difference. As trusted movers in Dayton and Cincinnati moving experts, Dow Moving handles residential moves with care, from studio apartments to large family homes. Our team packs, loads, transports, and unloads your belongings so you can focus on settling in, not the heavy lifting.

Home Moves Built Around You

Every home is different. A third-floor apartment packs differently than a four-bedroom house, and stairs, tight doorways, and driveways all shape the plan. We bring the right crew size, truck, and equipment for your move, and when a delicate item like a piano is involved, we bring the right padding and technique for that too. Whether you are upsizing, downsizing, or relocating for work, we tailor the move to your home and your schedule.

Local and Long Distance Home Moving

Across town or across the country, our residential crews keep the process simple and the pricing clear. Whether you need a quick local move or a long distance relocation, we own our trucks and never hand your move to a third party, so you deal with the same team from the first box to the last. If your dates do not line up, secure storage keeps your things safe in between.

Help With Every Part of the Move

Already packed and just need muscle? Our labor only crews load and unload for you. Moving an office instead of a home? Our commercial movers handle that too. Whatever the job, one call to Dow Moving covers it from start to finish.

I want to say that Shaq and Paris are super polite and very professional. Paris made some comments to me that showed me how much he cares for customers and also how much he loves his career. I can’t say enough about these two and we haven’t even let the first location yet. Whatever they are making, respect fully, it’s not enough. 🥰 Dow Moving is very fortunate to have two employees of this caliber. Heck any company would be. Thank you, Todd

Dow moving was professional and communicative from the beginning. They responded quickly to my inquiry for a quote, and communicated clearly and efficiently what the process would be like. The estimate was a very fair price for what I needed. The crew they sent was timely and very competent. They were quick, and handled all my belongings with care. They were also polite and very pleasant to work with. 5 star service from beginning to end, I would highly recommend!

Residential Moving FAQs

Can I pack some of the house myself and have you pack the rest?

Arrow Down

Yes. Plenty of families pack clothes, books, and everyday items themselves and leave the kitchen, glassware, artwork, and furniture to us. Tell us which rooms or items you want us to handle when you request your quote, and we will plan the crew and materials to match. Just make sure the boxes you pack yourself are sealed, labeled, and not overloaded.

How do you protect floors, walls, and door frames during the move?

Arrow Down

Before we carry anything out, we lay protection over high-traffic floors and pad the door frames and banisters along the path. Furniture is wrapped in moving blankets, and we use dollies and straps for the heavy pieces so nothing drags or scrapes. We do the same thing at your new home, which matters most when you are moving into a freshly painted or newly finished house.

Will the crew that shows up actually work for Dow Moving?

Arrow Down

Yes. We run our own trucks with our own movers and do not pass your move to a subcontractor or broker. The people you talk to while planning are the same company that loads your home and delivers it, whether you are moving within the Dayton area, around Cincinnati, or out of state. If something needs to change on moving day, you have one team to talk to.

How do you decide how many movers and what size truck I need?

Arrow Down

We look at the number of rooms, how much furniture you have, and any large or awkward pieces, then factor in things like stairs, elevators, long walks from the door to the truck, and parking. A second-floor apartment with a narrow stairwell might need a different crew than a ranch house with a driveway. Giving us an honest inventory up front keeps the plan accurate.

What should I do in the week before moving day?

Arrow Down

Finish packing the rooms you use least, set aside a box of first-night essentials, and empty and defrost the fridge if it is coming with you. Confirm parking or elevator access at both homes, and take apart anything you want to handle yourself. Label boxes by room so we can put them in the right place, and set valuables and important papers aside to take with you.
