Why Clients Choose Us
We Move the DMV.
We Move America.
One Standard.
Two Marines Moving was founded November 10, 2008 — the birthday of the United States Marine Corps. Not by investors. Not by a franchise. By a veteran who believed that discipline, accountability, and professional standards could transform an industry.
That belief has been validated across more than 50,000 completed moves, more than 1,000 veterans employed, and a damage claims rate under 3%. The standard has not changed. The scale has.

Component 1
Truck & Equipment
One truck. One flat fee. Disclosed before move day.
Component 2
Zone-Based Travel
Based on distance from our staging area. No mileage surprises.
Component 3
Hourly Labor
2-man through 5-man crews. Right crew for the mission.
You know what you are paying and why — before the truck arrives.

The Two Marines Moving Difference
Leadership from the Front
Crew Chiefs lead by example. Standards are enforced by people who hold themselves to the same standard first. That is not a policy — it is a culture.
Structure Creates Freedom
Clear pricing. Defined processes. Predictable arrival windows. When the structure is sound, clients and crew both operate with confidence.
Accountability Matters
Every move is tracked. Every crew is accountable. Less than 3% damage claims rate across 50,000+ completed moves. That number is the result of standards, not luck.
Mission First. Team Always.
The client's relocation is the mission. The team is how we accomplish it. Both matter. Neither is sacrificed for the other.

Our Story
Founded November 10, 2008.
The Birthday of the Marine Corps.
Two Marines Moving started with two Marines and a rented truck. No investors. No franchise. No outside capital. Just a veteran who believed that discipline, accountability, and service could build a premium moving company.
That belief has been tested across nearly 18 years, more than 50,000 completed moves, and more than 1,000 veterans employed. The company has been featured by Forbes, CNBC, The Washington Post, and Lifetime. It has been recognized by the White House and the Department of Defense.
The mission has not changed. Show up on time. Act professionally. Work proficiently. Protect the client's property. Complete the mission. Every move. Every time.
"I started this company because I believed the principles that make Marines effective — discipline, accountability, standards, teamwork — could make a moving company exceptional. Eighteen years later, I still believe that."
Nicholas Edmond Baucom — Founder & Chief Executive Officer
Sergeant, USMC · 0311 Infantry Rifleman · Founded Two Marines Moving, November 10, 2008
