Clark Moving & Storage

What Clark Moving & Storage does

Clark Moving & Storage, Inc. is a privately held, woman-owned moving and storage company headquartered at 3680 Buffalo Road, Rochester, NY, operating as an award-winning agent of the Mayflower Transit van line for more than 35 years. The company serves both residential and commercial customers across Upstate New York — explicitly covering Monroe, Livingston, Genesee, Wayne, Ontario, Erie, and Seneca counties plus Buffalo, Webster, and Batavia — with extended reach across 48 contiguous states, Canada, and Mexico, and select international moves conducted via air freight, ocean freight, lift vans, and steamship containers. Named commercial customers span education (RCSD, Monroe Community College, Brockport Athletics), transportation/logistics (Alstom), energy (Enel X, EPS), healthcare (ESF), and professional services firms (Sedgwick, Mindex, Ingham Associates, Vargas, Paris Kirwan, Intivity, Rochester Optical).

The service portfolio is built around five pillars: (1) residential local and interstate moving priced hourly for trips ≤150 miles and on weight-and-mileage for longer distances; (2) commercial office and industrial relocation including project management, color-coded labeling systems, reusable plastic rental crates, forklift, and workstation install; (3) specialty transportation of high-value items (pianos, hot tubs, safes, gym equipment, art, medical equipment, hotel FF&E) with custom crating and white-glove handling; (4) warehouse and mini-storage services leveraging 100,000+ sq ft with vault, open floor, racking, records retention, and cross-docking capabilities; and (5) portable storage via the GO-Mini container line offered in 12ft, 16ft, and 20ft sizes with 30-day self-loading windows. The technology stack is operational rather than algorithmic: a Household Digital Inventory system, the Mayflower Virtual Survey app for remote estimates, multi-channel digital acquisition (website, live chat, email, Google My Business, plus active Facebook/X/Instagram/YouTube accounts), and phone-based quote intake via a dedicated hotline.

The business model is predominantly transactional with one storage revenue stream (mini-storage units, 10'x20' and 10'x30', on monthly recurring cadence). Go-to-market mixes local field sales and digital lead capture with channel leverage through the Mayflower network for long-distance volume. Pricing is weight-and-mileage based for interstate (per Mayflower tariff), hourly for local moves, unit-based for GO-Mini containers, and custom-quoted for commercial projects and specialty items; Basic Coverage is included free with Full Value Protection sold separately. The company is founder/owner-operated by Kathy Clark (SBA Small Business Person of the Year, Woman of Distinction Award recipient), maintains an A+ BBB rating since 1985, and holds multiple Mayflower Master's Club/quality awards.
