Toronto. 2007. I’m relocating from a slummy apartment to another equally slummy one. I’m not moving up in the world. I’m not moving down in it, either.
All my possessions are crammed into a cab. My mattress is lashed to its roof. I spy treasure en route. Drawers. Bookcase. Easy chair. All left on the sidewalk for anyone to take.
Cabbie tipped, I return to the scene of the furniture. On closer inspection it’s in pretty good shape. It’ll soften the transition from furnished to unfurnished apartment (which doesn’t count as moving down).
Carrying drawers down several blocks and up a fire escape is no mean feat. Neither is doing the same with a bookcase. As I prepare the chair for takeoff, a man’s voice rings out from a nearby second story window. “What are you doing!?” It’s simple, I answer: I’m taking this stuff.
“I’m moving!”
That’s when I notice the moving truck. It dawns on me that I’d been casually stealing the second story man’s stuff in broad daylight. And as I’m sprinting away, I think this: “He really should have hired a better moving service.”
He Should Have Chosen College HUNKS
As a Canadian, my victim wasn’t at liberty to pick the best College HUNKS Hauling Junk & Moving franchise there is: the one in Eden Prairie, which is owned and operated by former U.S. Army Armor Officer Jason Sedlak.
“I love College HUNKS because we get to help people from all walks of life,” said Jason. “Moving into your first apartment? We’re happy to share the excitement with you. Relocating your business? We’ll attend to it like our own business depends on it. Transitioning to assisted living? We’ve received special training to facilitate such an important type of move with tact and consideration.
“Whoever you are, the HUNKS won’t just move you. We’ll give you all-encompassing peace of mind when you wish you had it most.”
Near … Far … Wherever You Are (Going)
College HUNKS’ hourly moving services are perfect for moves from Eden Prairie to Eden Prairie. But so long as you’re staying in the Western Hemisphere, the HUNKS have you all taken care of.
“We traveled as far south as Texas and as far east as Massachusetts during last year alone,” said Jason, “and we expect to ramp up our long-distance moving services even further in 2025.
“Delivering the most accurate estimate possible. Partnering with you to determine just how much personal involvement you want to have in your move, and what you can do to reduce your final cost. A crew that stays with your possessions at all times, and never jeopardizes them by storing them at a distribution center. We do a lot to differentiate our long-distance moving service from the major van lines’, and it shows every step of the way.”
Intense Donative Intent
Go ahead. Name a type of junk. So long as it isn’t radioactive, the HUNKS know where to take it so it can’t bother you anymore.
“Our junk removal service doesn’t just make life easier for our clients,” said Jason. “It lets us make our community better, too. Our team is specially trained to distinguish refuse from usable goods, and takes care to bring all of the latter to local donation centers, such as Bridging.
“I’d even go so far as to call our donation efforts a ‘green initiative.’ Over the course of the past two years, we managed to decrease our disposal rate by an entire percentage point. That’s a substantial number of mattresses, sofas, tables, and other household goods going to new homes instead of clogging up landfills.
Moving on Up
“Our mission is modest. We’re here to MOVE THE WORLD, which means investing as much into our team members as anything else.
“In addition to becoming better movers, we train our people to become better leaders. We also give them opportunities to develop both personally and professionally. As a veteran who hires a lot of other veterans and young people, I take enormous pride from making upward mobility attainable to my staff.”
