Tyler and his helper (sorry, I forgot his name) did a fantastic job. They were on time and got right to work. They loaded everything with care and worked very efficiently. They were polite and considerate of our things and the house. Everything stayed put for a 1100 mile drive and when we unloaded the truck at the other end there was no damage, no rub marks, nothing had shifted. I couldn't believe it. Thanks Tyler! Great job!

Major Neighborhoods in Kansas City

Kansas City is a unique metro that straddles the border of two states. Here on the Missouri side, you'll find a wonderful art scene, great sports, and that famous KC BBQ. Speaking of the last item on that list, locals will say you can't go wrong with a meal at Q39. If you're more of an art aficionado, then you'll be spending more time at the Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art, which houses close to 40,000 works. Of course, devoted fans of the local teams can’t miss out on catching a Kansas City Chiefs game at Arrowhead Stadium. But before you move here, look for professional moving companies who know the area. They'll absolutely get you to the correct side of the state border!

Plaza/Westport

Whatever you have the most fun doing, there's something for you to love in the eclectic Westport neighborhood. Residents particularly enjoy Westport Wednesdays, which take place on the last Wednesday of each month, offering an ever-changing variety of fun events, delicious local food, and more. Those who like the outdoors will appreciate the nearby Roanoke Park and its hiking trails encircled by photo-worthy bluffs. Many people consider Westport the “original” Kansas City, and you can visit historic homes like the Thomas Hart Benton Home that gives tours of the gardens and the painter’s legendary studio. And when the time comes, settling into this community is easy — just hire local movers who will help make your relocation a breeze.

Brookside

Brookside is Kansas City’s first suburban shopping area and continues to serve residents and visitors today. It features nearly 100 local businesses with a focus on friendly customer service. You can grab a meal at popular spots like Brookside Barrio or Bella Napoli, which has its own on-site Italian deli/market. If you like things fresh and locally produced food, then you can do some of your weekly shopping at at the Brookside Farmer’s Market. One of the most popular neighborhood events is Art Annual, featuring artworks and handmade products, food booths, and entertainment. Brookside has several nooks and dead-end streets, so before starting your move, check out our list of local movers to find a pro familiar with the area.

Waldo

Waldo started as the farm of one Dr. David Waldo in the 1800s. Nowadays it's a residential and business district with some great walkability, green areas, and activities. You can take advantage of that ability to stretch your legs in the area by exploring the Harry Wiggins Trolley Track Trail with 6.8 miles of paths. After all that exercise, grab a treat at Betty Rae’s Ice Cream or get lunch at the popular Burger State. Locals also love the Waldo Fall Festival, an annual celebration of the autumn season with food, vendors, and live entertainment. If you're already making plans to join the Waldo community, then check out our list of local movers who will ensure your move is stress-free.

River Market

If you're a foodie or love window shopping, then River Market is your neighborhood dream. Local eateries include tasty bakeries like Bloom Baking Co., or for those who can't make it to a Chief's game in person, there's the sports bar Block 15. And don’t forget to check out City Market, the largest farmer’s market in the region. The nearby Arabia Steamboat Museum showcases relics from a salvaged ship that sunk in the Missouri River in the mid-19th century. The wide paths of Berkley Riverfront Park are perfect for biking, walking, or just enjoying the waterfront views. Sounds like the perfect fit? Then check out our list of local movers to find a professional team to help take care of the logistics for you.
