This is a rare opportunity to acquire a fully equipped, award-winning moving and storage business with 55 years of operational history in the Dallas-Fort Worth market — one of the fastest-growing metro areas in the country. The business comes with over $100,000 in hard assets including a branded fleet of semi trailers, a box truck, a commercial forklift, and 40+ wooden storage vaults. The owner is retiring after more than five decades and is motivated to close before the current lease expires in November 2025.

This is an asset-based acquisition priced well below replacement cost. Buying new equipment equivalent to what transfers would cost $200,000+. You're acquiring a running operation with an established brand, trained equipment, a 55-year customer list, and active vault storage revenue — at a fraction of what it would cost to build from scratch.


WHY $120,000 IS THE RIGHT NUMBER
The hard assets alone justify the ask:
- 4 branded semi trailers (45-ft moving trailers): $40,000–$80,000
- 1 box truck (26-ft Uhaul-style): $8,000–$18,000
- Nissan propane forklift: $4,000–$12,000
- 40+ wooden storage vaults: $12,000–$24,000
- Moving equipment (blankets, dollies, carts, supplies): $3,000–$5,000
- 55-year brand, phone number, domain, customer list: $5,000–$10,000

Total estimated asset value: $72,000–$149,000 — midpoint ~$120,000.

At $120,000, this deal is priced at or below mid-range asset value. A buyer gets a named brand ("Best Mover in Dallas" — D Magazine), a 4.9-star Angi rating, and 55 years of DFW customer relationships included at no premium.
