Two Men and A Truck is the largest national franchised moving company in the United States. Its mission is to continuously strive to exceed customers' expectations in value and high standard of satisfaction. It offers a full range of home and business moving services. It also sells boxes and packing supplies online and at franchise locations.

The moving franchise was founded in the early 1980s by brothers Brig Sorber and Jon Sorber in Lansing, Michigan. Using an old pickup truck, they performed moves to earn extra money. Their mother, Mary Ellen Sheets, drew the logo for their new company. That stick-figure logo still represents Two Men and A Truck and can be seen on nearly 1,400 trucks domestically and on all brandware.

Sheets took over the business when her sons left for college. In 1985, she purchased a 14-foot truck for $350 and hired a pair of movers. This is the only money Sheets personally invested in the company.

Today, Two Men and a Truck has more than 200 locations worldwide. The company has offices in 31 states, and in Canada and Ireland. For more information, or for franchising opportunities, visit www.twomen.com. To buy boxes online, go to www.twomenboxes.com.
