LANSING, MI — TWO MEN AND A TRUCK®, the national full-service franchised moving company, closed out 2024 with remarkable achievements, solidifying its position as a leader in the moving industry. From record-breaking franchise openings to innovative service expansions, 2024 has been a year of growth, resilience and continued investment in customer and franchisee success.
“This was a productive year on many fronts,” said Randy Shacka, president of TWO MEN AND A TRUCK. “The housing market has been challenging, but we have a lot to be proud of. We celebrated 10 million moves, invested in key areas of the business and broke records for franchise openings. It’s been a great year, and we’re excited about the future.”
When it comes to growth, TWO MEN AND A TRUCK had plenty to celebrate in 2024, with major milestones including:
TWO MEN AND A TRUCK’s focus on service-innovation-enhanced technologies has also continued to pay dividends. Revenue from crated moving services surpassed the total 2023 figure, reaching $13.7 million in 2024. These advancements align with customer demand for streamlined, efficient moving solutions.
“We’ve made new investments in technology, such as chatbots, to make the moving process easier for our customers,” said Shacka. “On the franchise side, we’ve provided advanced business intelligence tools to help our owners make smarter decisions and grow their businesses.”
In a major milestone for its Canadian operations, TWO MEN AND A TRUCK, in partnership with ServiceMaster Brands, assumed the master franchise rights for Canada from Heron Capital. This move brings 33 Canadian franchises under the direct support of the Michigan Support Center, enabling these locations to leverage a broader network of tools, resources and expertise. This transition sets the stage for significant growth opportunities in the Canadian market.
As always, TWO MEN AND A TRUCK also prioritized giving back this year. In partnership with the Lansing franchise and the organization To Work In Graceful Service (TWIGS), the brand marked its 10 millionth move milestone by giving away a free move to a deserving individual and donating $5,000 to End Violent Encounters (EVE). In addition, through their annual Movers for Moms campaign, the brand collected more than 431,000 items to support mothers in need. TWO MEN AND A TRUCK also donated more than $45,000 to Convoy of Hope from 2023 moves, reinforcing its commitment to giving back.
TWO MEN AND A TRUCK also earned multiple accolades in 2024, including:
“The Newsweek ranking and other recognitions validate the hard work of our frontline teams and franchisees,” said Shacka. “Prospective franchisees see these awards as a testament to the strength and reputation of our brand.”
As TWO MEN AND A TRUCK takes on 2025, the brand is optimistic about the opportunities ahead. With continued investments in technology, franchise support and marketing, the company is well-positioned for another year of growth and success.
“We feel more confident and optimistic about next year’s home buying season,” said Shacka. “We’ve put in the hard work, and now it’s go time. That’s what I love about this business — growing together.”
