Company information

When families around San Antonio need to relocate, 2 College Brothers brings something fresh to the moving game that bigger companies just can't match. This family-run business started small over fourteen years ago and has grown into an award-winning operation that serves customers across Texas and Florida with their unique approach. What makes them different isn't just their fleet of well-maintained trucks or their transparent pricing—it's their crew of carefully selected college students who get proper training and background checks before touching anyone's belongings. These young movers bring energy and enthusiasm to every job while following strict safety protocols and treating each customer's stuff like it belongs to their own grandmother. The company operates out of San Antonio and knows every neighborhood from downtown to the suburbs, which helps them plan efficient routes and handle tricky building access issues. Their signature "Raving Fan Guarantee" means if customers aren't completely thrilled with the service, they actually get money back—something most moving companies would never risk offering.
