Best Youngstown, OH Moving Company
A & M Friendly Movers got its start right here in the Mahoning Valley, and we are proud to be moving families in Youngstown again. From the North Side near Youngstown State University to the quiet streets around Mill Creek Park, we know this city is made of old brick, steep stairs, and neighbors who look out for each other. Whether you are buying your first house on the West Side, moving a parent closer to family, or leaving the Valley for a new job, we want your move to go smoothly from the first box to the last.
A lot of Youngstown homes were built in the steel era. That means two-story frame and brick houses with narrow staircases, tight turns to the second floor, and basements full of stuff that has not moved in years. Our crews pad and wrap furniture, take apart beds and tables when they will not fit, and carry things out slowly so walls and railings stay in one piece. If your basement has a washer, dryer, chest freezer, or old workbench, let us know when you call so we can bring the right gear and enough people.
Downtown is different. The apartments and lofts along Federal Street and near the Covelli Centre often have shared entrances, older elevators, and limited spots to park a truck. We plan the route, the parking, and the timing ahead of time, so moving day does not turn into circling the block. If you are a YSU student or staff member heading in or out near the start of a semester, call early, because those weeks fill up fast.
Not every move is a whole house. We help with downsizing, estate cleanouts, single-room moves, and heavy items like pianos and safes. We also offer packing and unpacking and short-term storage if your closing dates do not line up. Winters here bring snow and slick steps, so we lay down floor protection and clear a safe path before carrying anything out. Many moves go out along I-680, US 422, or Route 224, and we are glad to take you across town or across the country.
We also serve the rest of the Mahoning Valley & Northeast Ohio area, including Boardman, Austintown, and Canfield, plus Akron and Canton. A & M Friendly Movers is family-owned since 2019, and moving Youngstown families feels like coming home. Our mission is simple: quality, professional service at a fair price. Home is where the heart is, and moving is where it starts. Call 717-434-6711 for a free quote.
