The story of The Moving Connection is a testament to the organic and community-driven ethos of Boulder. What began as an unexpected transition from a rock band’s gear-hauling truck to a moving business in 1989 exemplifies the town’s spontaneous entrepreneurial spirit. Glen McGinty’s journey from drummer to mover laid the foundation for this remarkable venture. Fast forward to 1991, when Dave Moloney, an Irish chef running a unique bakery in Boulder, joined forces with Glen, further solidifying the company’s roots in Boulder’s vibrant local scene. Their partnership flourished, ultimately leading Dave to take the reins and purchase the company just two weeks later.

Dave’s stewardship of The Moving Connection for 28 years upheld its reputation as Boulder’s most trusted moving company. In 2017, Dave decided to pass the torch to another longstanding Boulder family, who had been serving the community since 1997. The commitment of The Moving Connection’s employees to the company’s values and their deep expertise, honed over years of service, continue to make them integral members of the Boulder community. Through all its growth and changes, The Moving Connection’s unwavering dedication to being an essential part of Boulder remains a hallmark of its enduring success.
