We had a great experience with Handy Relocations. Our movers were a few minutes early, worked very efficiently, and finished loading our stuff much faster than I expected. They were polite, friendly, and very hard-workers. I would highly recommend them and would definitely use them again.

Real Advice from Detroit Movers
We asked local movers about what you should know about moving in Detroit. (They’re really nice!)
"It's often a good idea to pack small loads and make multiple trips. Also be aware that there are no official loading zones around the dorms for move-out. All of the usual Ann Arbor parking regulations will be enforced."

Major Neighborhoods in Detroit
Detroit is Michigan’s most populated city and birthplace of the modern automobile — hence the nickname “Motor City”. But it's also home to Motown Records and a great live music scene. And it's one of only four US cities to host pro teams in all major sports: football, baseball, basketball, and hockey. So whether you spend your weekends going to games at Ford Field, exploring museums, or trying new restaurants, there's a Detroit neighborhood you'll love to call home.
Downtown Detroit
There is no shortage of iconic landmarks and attractions in Downtown Detroit. The skyscrapers of the Renaissance Center are the most eye-catching, but if you don't want to keep craning your neck up, check out the flowers, holiday lights, or artificial beach in Campus Martius. There's also the historic Greektown, which has been a culinary and cultural center in the city since the 1800s. Thinking of joining Downtown Detroit's community? Hiring professional movers who know the ins and outs of the neighborhood's unique layout is invaluable.
Midtown
The core of the city's arts and culture is undoubtedly Midtown. Previously known as "Cass Corridor" (and you'll still hear some locals call it that), it's home to the Detroit Cultural Center, a complex of museums and galleries. You'll also find Wayne State University's sprawling campus in the area and West Canfield Historic District's restored Queen Anne-style houses. However, consider hiring local professional movers if this area has you charmed enough to start planning a move. They're so familiar with the neighborhood, they'll save you time even through the festival and event crowds.
Corktown
Once home to Irish immigrants in the 1800s, Corktown's name pays homage to County Cork, Ireland. It's Detroit's oldest neighborhood, and has iconic landmarks like Michigan Central Station. Up and down the main thoroughfare Michigan Ave, you can find vintage shops, restaurants, and modern cafes like Bobcat Bonnie's (there's a mimosa bar!). Planning a move here can be a little intimidating, since navigating the narrow streets and limited parking options isn't easy. But hiring professional movers versed in Corktown's layout can ensure a hassle-free moving experience.
Woodbridge
Woodbridge is best known for its green spaces, proximity to other popular areas in the city, and Victorian-style homes. One is the Hunter House, a former bed and breakfast turned into a Historic Site. Another is the Trumbullplex, a housing collective with an art space and zine library open for public viewing. But if historic homes aren't your thing, you can try riding in the Woodbridge Bicycle Garden and look at the bicycle sculptures there instead. Our local movers can ensure your transition into the Woodbridge community is seamless and worry-free.

Awesome workers!! They communicated with me the whole time, they were very nice, respectful and quick. Highly recommend! I couldn’t ask for better people to help me with this project. Thank you ??
Arrived late but were in constant communication. Marty (lead) communicated excellently in days leading up to move. Two helpers were well coordinated. Took frequent breaks, but got all work done in a timely manner. Respectful of property, no profane language, listened well to directions. Did not feel rushed.

They were on time, courteous, and very professional! I was shocked on how well they packed and how much they were able to get into my pod. Very impressed.
They were perfect! They were courteous and respectful but also friendly. True professionals and even managed to get my huge bed frame up the stairs and around the railings with no problem. I highly recommend this service! Well worth it.
Fantastic Service. Arrived on time and were very efficient with loading my belongings onto the truck. Loaded truck carefully and helped with how to tie down belongings in truck
Brice arrived early and jumped right into thoughtfully loading the truck. He and his crew delivered quick and focused work, and flawlessly packed and unpacked our 26ft moving truck! Would highly recommend Brice and team and will surely hire him again the next time we move.
Brice and his partner came on time, they were amazing too! Very helpful and respectful of all my beautiful and delicate items we moved into our home. They finished quickly, but took very good care of every item. I would recommend them to everyone! Quit looking for a helpful moving company, this is your team!!
