Shleppers

While I consider myself a very frugal-minded person, there are some areas where it is worth spending more money for quality and peace of mind. Sometimes a company's reputation is worth more than the price of their services. I admire companies that have been around for a long time with loyal customers, especially if they are "Mom and Pop" operations. For example, the New York Moving Company called Shleppers. They have been helping New Yorkers with moving and storage since 1978 and have earned themselves New York's top spot in the industry.

Even though moving is serious business, Shleppers keeps their website interesting by including humorous graphics and anecdotes, which makes them stand out from competitors. Their "shlep-ology" page is hilarious. In our world of large corporations, it's nice to see smaller companies making a name for themselves and rising above the competition.
