Founded in 1909 by W.W. Ecton in Winchester, Saunier Moving and Storage has been an enduring presence in Kentucky, holding the distinction of being the state’s oldest moving company. In 1948, the reins of the family business were passed to Walter G. Ecton, the grandson of the founder. Under Walter’s guidance, Ecton Movers evolved into an agent for North American Van Lines, marking a significant milestone in the company’s history and paving the way for further growth and success.

Since its inception over a century ago, Saunier Moving and Storage has been synonymous with reliability and excellence in the moving industry. Under the leadership of Walter G. Ecton, the company’s affiliation with North American Van Lines in 1948 propelled it to new heights, solidifying its position as a leading moving service provider in Kentucky.
