Founder Steve Reed recognized the demand for a customer-centric moving company after successfully assisting friends and students with small relocations within the University of Memphis campus. The positive feedback spread through word-of-mouth further underscored this necessity. This realization led to the inception of Big League Movers, a company whose name not only reflects its commitment to top-notch service but also humorously alludes to the aspirations of its initial staff, mainly comprised of former college baseball players. These employees, sharing dreams of reaching the major leagues in sports, found their own “Big League” at the company Steve established.

Steve Reed’s experience in facilitating minor moves on the University of Memphis campus highlighted the potential for a customer-first moving enterprise, spurred by the endorsement of his services through informal communication. This prompted the establishment of Big League Movers, a company that not only emphasizes exceptional service but also draws on the aspirations of its early workforce, predominantly ex-college baseball players. The company’s name not only embodies its dedication to superior quality but also playfully acknowledges the ambitions of its staff, who envisioned making it to the highest echelons of their field – a goal realized metaphorically within the context of the newly formed company.
