Company information

Back in 2006, a fantastic person named JR March started a small business about giving people more freedom when it came to moving. They wanted to be different from those big national chains that can be restrictive and impersonal. After working hard for many years and building up an excellent reputation, the company was taken over by Jesse Lovan and Chris Shipp, who have done a fantastic job of keeping up the high standards. One thing that makes Mentors Moving & Storage stand out is how much they care about their customers. They know that life can be hectic, so they always do their best to be flexible and work around patrons' schedules.
