Movers in Brookside
Free, No-Obligation Estimate
Pre-war brick Tudors and bungalows on tight tree-lined streets. The Dudes move Brookside on a flat, written price, handled by our own crew.
Moving in Brookside: What to Expect
Brookside is one of Kansas City's most-loved older neighborhoods, 1920s brick Tudors and bungalows on narrow tree-lined streets around the shops on 63rd and Wornall. Most of these homes have steep original staircases, skinny doorways, and a detached garage down a back drive, so a move here turns on the carry, and we scout the stairs and the parking before the truck rolls up.
What to square away before a Brookside move
- Older homes have steep, narrow original staircases and tight doorways
- Many houses have a detached garage down a shared back drive
- Curbside parking on the tree-lined streets can be tight

Three Steps to Moving Day
From that opening hello to the last box carried in and set down in its proper room.
Tell Us About the Move
Tell us about the move over the phone, on a quick video call, or straight through the form. What comes back is a flat price in writing, never a squishy figure that swells once the truck is loaded.
Lock In Your Date
Pick your day and we match the right crew and truck to it, then sort the loading-zone permit, the building certificate of insurance, or the freight-elevator booking your move needs.
We Carry the Load
One lead owns the whole job, wrap, load, drive, and placement, with our own Kansas City crew, and we plan the run around I-70, I-35, and the I-435 loop to keep the day on time.

Your Move, Fully Covered
Covered from the first blanket we throw over your things to the last box carried up to the second floor.
Fully Insured
Every job carries cargo and liability coverage, and we go over your valuation choices with you before you put pen to paper.
Loft & Walk-Up Ready
Freight-elevator bookings and building certificates of insurance for the Plaza and Crossroads lofts, plus cramped Brookside stairwells and tight Westport walk-ups, we scout the carry and the parking so a loft or third-floor move never stalls at the door.
Padded & Wrapped
Every piece gets blanketed, shrink-wrapped, and firmly strapped down. If something does take a knock, we call it out on the spot and set it right.
Done Right
An honest price, a crew that truly cares about the work, and no one clocks out until every last piece is exactly where you want it.
We Know Brookside
We scout the old staircases, the back-drive access, and the street parking before your date, so a Brookside move stays smooth even in a snug 1920s home. One lead stays with your job from the first knock to the last box, and the flat price is in your hands before a thing gets loaded.

I would be remiss for not taking these few minutes to compliment the work performed by this company. We purchased a large hutch from a friend in Prairie Village to be transported to our home in Lenexa. The piece was too big for us to move on our own or to ask of others. These guys showed up at the precise promised time, wearing masks in this time of pandemic. They completed the move in about 45 minutes, handling the piece with care and they were respectful of both homes. Additionally, both men were conscientious. The logistics for arranging this move was far simpler than for some of the bigger companies not to mention a far more reasonable rate. This will be the first company I call for any future needs, and I'm happy to recommend them to any readers here.
Jake and Elliott, thank you for clearing out all the extra trash and donations I had after moving. You guys did an amazing job.
Sam and Robert did an excellent job moving the furniture in our apartment. This was our first time using a moving company and they were so kind and helpful. We will gladly use these guys again.

Questions We Hear a Lot
Do you move within Brookside?
Yes, the older homes here are a big part of what we do. Local moves start at $115/hr on a flat, written price, and we take care of the stair carry, the back-drive access, and the curb parking for you. When the move leaves the metro, we price it on weight and mileage instead.
Are you licensed and insured?
We are. 2 Dudes And A Truck holds Missouri and Kansas household-goods authority and full insurance, and your job rides with our own crew from start to finish, with no broker sneaking in to take a cut. We are happy to go over the authority numbers and coverage with you, and we will talk through your valuation options before anything is set.
Can you take on a loft or condo move that requires a building COI?
Yes, we do these constantly. Plaza condos and the loft conversions in the Crossroads and River Market want a certificate of insurance on file and the freight elevator held for a fixed window. We send the COI over to building management, lock the elevator, pad the cab and corridors, and wrap up inside your booked slot so the dock frees up on time.
My Brookside bungalow has a tight, steep staircase. Is that a problem?
That is right in our wheelhouse. The old brick houses across Brookside, Waldo, and Hyde Park come with steep original staircases, pinched doorways, and low basement headroom. We read every turn, pad the jambs and railings, and hoist or hand-carry anything that will not round the corner, just as we have done since 2015.
Will you handle the packing?
However much you would like. Need the whole house boxed? Consider it done. Only the kitchen and the artwork? That works too. We show up with heavy-duty cartons and paper, label every box by room, and once the truck is empty we will unpack you at the new place.
Will you take on pianos, gun safes, and pool tables?
Yes, and our crew moves them week in and week out. Upright or grand, a loaded gun safe, a slate pool table, a family heirloom, or a framed canvas, each one rides the right board or dolly under proper straps and pads, and we build a custom crate whenever a piece calls for one.
Can I move or cancel my date?
Of course. Give us at least two days’ notice to reschedule or cancel and your full deposit comes right back. Every term is spelled out in plain words on your booking, so nothing is left to guesswork.
