In 1982 Don Fix was being contracted for work at Miller’s Furniture in Pittsburgh, PA. When Miller’s closed, they sold their 14 ft. Ford F-600 to Don, and he began a small company with that truck. He even used his own 600 square foot garage at home for storage. Don named his company Don Farr Moving and Storage. This company grew slowly to four trucks (all 24 ft. box trucks) and a crew of 20 employees. The storage facility at that time consisted of about 400 square feet also known as his garage.
Since those humble beginnings, the company has acquired five additional moving companies(which all exist under ‘Exclusive Services, Inc.)! Don Farr Moving and Storage is one of the largest INDEPENDENT moving companies serving the metropolitan Pittsburgh area and surrounding counties with top performance, innovation, and commitment to personal service. Over the last few years, we have proudly been named Pittsburgh’s “Hometown Movers”.
Today we boast a crew of over 75 employees and about 50 moving trucks (vans, straight trucks, tractor units, trailer units and 14 ft. box vans). Don Farr accomplishes all of its own work without a van line for labor or revenue assistance. We also lease a 30,000 square foot climate-controlled warehouse for storage. An experienced supervisor oversees this facility on a full-time basis.
We serve 48 states and handle residential, commercial and international moving needs, as well as automobile transport. Don Farr Moving and Storage takes pride in offering a friendly and efficient staff dedicated to serving their customers. We are open seven days a week and have phones that answer 24 hours a day. We offer guaranteed pickup and delivery dates to meet our customer’s needs.
This business is family-owned, operated, and managed today by Don Fix’s sons. David and Russell having over 35 years of moving experience combined! They encourage their staff to collaborate as a team, functioning to get each job done right!
