About Us

Tom and Karen Paisley have owned Underfanger Moving and Storage for more than 40 years. Tom worked for the business for 13 years before that, starting while in college, working every summer as a mover. After college, he became a dispatcher, then general manager, then vice president and then owner. Tom is listed as President, covers operations and dispatch. Karen is Vice President, sales manager and move coordinator.

Our mission is to provide the utmost professional, stress-free and enjoyable moving experience on each and every move, no matter how small or large. Tom and Karen are the main contacts on every move as well as our office manager, Lisa, who has been with us for over 30 years.

We're very proud of the fact that our employees have been with us for many years. We will treat your belongings as well as we would treat our own. You can depend on us for long distance AND local moves.

The men employed by us do our packing and moving, many have been with us from the beginning; all are professional packers and movers. We guarantee that we do not use extra labor from labor places/unemployment offices. We do background checks on al potential employees (This is a Mayflower Requirement.)

We are community oriented and donate time, money and our trucks/movers for many charities, fundraisers, food drives etc.
