Our Story

A locally owned business on a mission to fix moving.

We're Color Crate Moving — and we believe your move should be the exciting part, not the exhausting part.

A family moving with Color Crate totes
01

It started with a messy move.

Our founders lived the cardboard nightmare — collapsing boxes, endless tape, and a mountain of waste on moving day. There had to be a smarter way to move a family across town.

A locally owned idea.

Color Crate Moving was born right here in Southwest Iowa: a homegrown business built to make moving cleaner, easier, and far less stressful for our neighbors.

03

Pack by color, move with ease.

Our color-coded system means every room has its own crate. No mislabeled boxes, no guessing — just grab, stack, and go. Reusable totes that are kinder to your back and the planet.

Here for your next chapter.

Whether you're a first-time buyer, a downsizing senior, a busy family, or a growing business — we deliver, you pack, and we pick up. Moving, finally made simple.
