Muscular Moving Men & Storage History
From Humble Beginnings to Industry Leaders
Muscular Moving Men & Storage was founded in 2008 by Scottsdale natives and lifelong friends Josh Jurhill and Justin Hodge, who began helping people move using borrowed trucks and ads on Craigslist. Their shared vision? Create a moving company that stands apart through professionalism, care, and strength.
Josh and Justin’s backgrounds – corporate logistics and hands-on moving – proved the perfect blend. While Justin brought industry experience from a national moving company, Josh contributed business discipline from his work in insurance and operations.
They personally completed the company’s first 500 local moves, building relationships one box at a time.
Their entrepreneurial journey wasn’t without obstacles. Vandalized trucks and tough early years didn’t stop them: they bought their first fleet, hired staff, and expanded services. Today, their leadership continues to drive Muscular Moving Men’s culture and success.
Muscular Moving Men Today
Over the past 17 years, Muscular Moving Men has experienced rapid growth, expanding by up to 30% to 40% annually. The addition of climate-controlled storage, long-distance moving services, and commercial services created new opportunities, and our company’s staff grew to more than 75.
Today, Muscular Moving Men has:
- Completed nearly 30,000 moves nationwide with an average of 400+ moves per month
- A team of 150+ employees in logistics, operations, and support
- 50,000 square feet of climate-controlled warehouse space for short-term and long-term storage in three locations
- A fleet of box trucks, tractor-trailers, and flatbeds for any type of move
- Moved clients in 48 U.S. states, excluding Hawaii and Alaska
We continue to develop and improve our offerings for customers, from financing to referral programs, within our expansive service area in the Southwest.
A Vision for the Future
In 2024, we acquired 4.71 acres in North Phoenix to build a new 70,000 sq. ft. corporate headquarters featuring a world-class training facility and expanded dispatch and storage capabilities. Set to open in 2025, this space reflects our ongoing investment in our people, technology, and customers.
“Creating a state-of-the-art facility where our team feels proud to work—and our clients and partners feel welcome—is incredibly important to us.”
— Justin Hodge, President
We’re not stopping here. With plans to scale our operations into 10–20 markets in the coming years, Muscular Moving Men remains committed to expanding with integrity, consistency, and a relentless focus on service.
