What Apple Moving does

Apple Moving is a privately held, family-owned moving and logistics company headquartered in Austin, Texas, that delivers residential, commercial, military, and government relocation services across the United States and internationally. The company was founded in 1991 and re-platformed in 2006 when Jon Minor acquired the Apple Moving brand and grew it from a single-truck Austin operation into a multi-state carrier; the firm now operates 16 owned offices across Texas, Colorado, Florida, Georgia, North Carolina, and Virginia, with 800,000+ square feet of temperature-monitored warehouse capacity, GPS-tracked fleets, and a workforce of 300+ trained and certified movers supported by a broader team of 600+ professionals.

The service portfolio is productized into residential lines (local, long distance, international, military, government relocation, and residential storage) and commercial lines (office moves, employee relocation, commercial storage, hospitality, restaurant and retail, and hospital and medical facility moves), plus add-on services such as packing, auto transport, and furniture disassembly/reassembly. The underlying technology stack is operational rather than software-driven: GPS-tracked fleets for sensitive relocations, temperature-monitored storage, and a virtual quote system on the company website. Apple Moving holds GSA-approved carrier status, USDOT and MC licensing, and Texas DMV registration, which underwrite the government and military book of work.

Revenue is generated on a transaction-fee basis: local moves are priced hourly with all-inclusive bundling (taxes, labor, truck, wraps, pads, dollies, gas), while interstate and long-distance moves are priced on weight and distance. Go-to-market is sales-led, combining a self-serve virtual quote system, inside sales via a national phone number, and field sales through regional offices that deliver in-home and in-person estimates. Customer mix is intentionally diversified across residential consumers, commercial accounts, hospitality and retail chains, healthcare facilities, and federal and military programs; the company reports 200,000+ lifetime customers, 18,000+ corporate clients, and reference relationships with brands including Walmart, Starbucks, McDonald's, Lockheed Martin, Aetna, and SiriusXM.
