Team Move
Vivek recruited 3 friends to help his wife and he to move into their newly purchased home on St. Ann Street. Vivek and a friend were at their old place on St. Ann a few blocks up the street from their new place and took their larger furnishings out and helped load the MOVE IT! by bike trailer. Waiting at their new place were 2 friends and the Mrs. who unloaded the trailer and moved the furniture into their new home. This team work cut down the time it took for this move as well as the man hours thus saving time and money.
No Van for Van
Van Miller hired us to move some of his office furniture from the 837 Gravier Office building in the CBD to the 1100 block of Burgundy in the French Quarter.

Moved a Mover
MOVE IT! by bike helped Kevin and Megan move from the 30 block of West Park Place to the 700 block of Hidalgo St. Kevin used to be a mover and was impressed with MOVE IT! by bike. We also got some moving tips from him. MOVE IT! by bike's trailer was used to move a couch, an over stuffed chair, an end table, a queen sized bed and several cabinets, dressers and armoires. Hunter and Nathaniel Wood (of Hollywood Cycles and Repair) were our crew.
1/4 of the Way There

2 Blocks, 0 Pictures
We moved some items from the 800 block of Leoatine St. to the 600 block of Leoatine St. Sad to say my iPhone was not working and no pictures were taken.
Jacky Gets A Bed
Jacky got a bed and an entertainment center from Craigslist and needed it moved to her place so she called MOVE IT! by bike. She recruited her room mate to help with the move and cut her labor cost in half. Jacky also took several of the pictures.
We Cheated
At the request of our client we enlisted the help of a pick up truck to haul most of our client's items from the 1000 block of Washington Street to the 2600 block of Marias Street a 4.8 mile trip. Just one piece of furniture did not fit into the truck so we MOVED IT! by bike.
Magazine to Murat
MOVE IT! by bike transported several boxes, a couple of trunks, a dresser, a book shelf and several musical instruments from the 2100 block of Magazine Street to the 600 block of North Murat Street. Our client lived in a second story apartment connected to the ground floor via beautiful winding stairs. This move took two trips, at 5.1 miles one way, and took 5 hours. Hunter and Stevie were the movers.
Costco Couch to the Quarter
Greg got a great deal on a leather couch at Costco and called upon MOVE IT! by bike to bring it to his French Quarter apartment. The challenge was to move the couch up some narrow and twisted stairs to his second story apartment but Greg and Tim got it up there. Greg cut his labor cost in half by participating in the move.
