Founded in 1922 as Maher Brothers in Iowa City, our moving and storage company initially focused on transporting consumer goods nationwide. Under the guidance of Mr. Dennis Maher, our founder, a commitment to accommodating and transparent customer service emerged, laying the foundation for our ethos. As a family-owned business, Maher Brothers recognized the paramount importance of prioritizing customer care, understanding that reliable movers who value customers’ time and money make the moving process smoother.

In the 1980s and 1990s, Maher Brothers expanded its footprint, establishing terminals in the Quad Cities market, thereby solidifying its reputation as the trusted movers for Des Moines, IA, and Davenport, IA customers. Affiliating with Allied Van Lines in 1995 marked a significant milestone, further enhancing Maher Brothers’ standing among moving companies. Strengthening its partnership with Allied in 2016, Maher Brothers Transfer & Storage expanded its service area by acquiring the Des Moines market, reaffirming its commitment to delivering unmatched hauling and logistical services, a tradition upheld since its inception.
