Fresh snow across central Ohio is never a cause to postpone; we schedule early departures, track the I-70 road conditions, and keep everything shrink-wrapped so a midwinter move runs like any summer one.
01 Good to know
Are you a moving company?
Yes — Moving On Faith is a fully licensed and insured Columbus, OH moving company running our own trucks and uniformed crew, with an Ohio PUCO permit and US DOT and MC authority.
What will a local move cost?
A two-mover crew with a truck runs $149 an hour and a three-mover crew $189, both billed from a two-hour minimum. That figure is in your hands well ahead of the move itself.
How does your flat quote work?
Your one figure comes from a room-by-room count, the size of the home, and how reachable each entry is, all written down. Once the crew starts, that total is locked — no meter keeps climbing while they work.
How much do you take to hold a date?
A $100 deposit secures your slot on our board, and every dollar of it comes off what you owe at the end. The estimate itself costs nothing.
Are you licensed and insured?
Yes. On top of an Ohio PUCO permit and US DOT and MC authority, Moving On Faith is fully licensed and insured, and no one off our payroll ever touches your job — truck and mover alike.
Do you move through central Ohio winters?
Year-round, yes. We start early, watch the I-70 highway forecast, carry traction for iced driveways, and shrink-wrap each piece, so a January move is as secure as one in July.
Which areas do you cover?
Columbus, central Ohio, and the greater Ohio metro — from Dublin, Westerville, and Hilliard to Grove City, Gahanna, Reynoldsburg, Worthington, and the suburb HOA communities west of town.
On a long haul, will my things ride with other people's?
No — everything you own travels solo in a truck we own, off any shared semi, which means the same Columbus crew that packs the load also sets it down at the far end.
Do you move pianos and heavy items?
Routine work for us. The heavy-goods crew pads and straps pianos of every kind, gun safes, and framed pieces, then wheels them out on dollies built for the poundage.
Are you a broker or lead service?
Not at all — we're a genuine Columbus company running our own trucks and a payroll crew in uniform, and no outside party ever takes over your job; it's ours from first box to last.
