Company information

Antelope Valley Van & Storage traces its roots back to the entrepreneurial spirit of Bill and Francis Schafer 75 years ago. From a cattle ranch to a cold storage facility, they flourished as a trusted moving and storage company for local, intrastate, interstate, and international moves due to their extensive experience in household moves, industrial relocations, and heavy equipment transportation. As the generations passed the baton, Michael G. Schafer Jr. and Tyson Schafer took the reins, ushering in a new era of success. As a fourth-generation family business, they continue to serve their community with dedication, expertise, and a passion for making relocations easy and secure.
