    This recent move was the eigth long distance move I have made over the years.  In comparison, Wheaton was above and beyond all of the others in every aspect.  From my initial contact for a quote, to the packing, loading and unloading of my goods, they showed extreme care and professionalism.

    5 Star Review

    Wheaton is a Quality Moving Company. They are a perfect example of being customer focused. It starts from the estimate process, where they are sure they understand your specific needs/timelines and any complexities. Totally organized, explain the details of each step (pack/Pickup/move/delivery expectations) so there are no surprises.  In addition to the regular communication with the movers on the ground, the corporate office checks in regularly to make sure everything is going as planned and if you have any questions.  Great Experience and HIGHLY recommended for the easiest local move to the most complex split & long-distance moves.  They work hard for you!

    5 Star Review

    The men who brought out possessions from CA worked quickly and efficiently and packed things that we hadn’t considered. On arrival in MT , the unpacking and putting things where we want them was done in the same manner as the packing.    They all knew what they were doing. This was the first time moving for us. We were informed about time and had great communication with the others who set up, took inventory and monitored the whole process. We used Wheaton because of recommendation from others. A special thanks goes to Renay.

    5 Star Review

    We recently moved from Austin to Tennessee and used Wheaton for our move. I was beyond impressed with the professionalism of every person I worked with during the entire process. Our move coordinator, Jennifer Cruz was amazing and kept us informed during the entire move process and our driver, Daniel was also amazing and kept us up to date when he was arriving at our home to load our furniture and contents and kept us updated prior to delivery here in Tennessee. It was wonderful to work with Wheaton during our move. Highly recommend!

    5 Star Review

    I hired Wheaton Van Lines to move furniture cross country after selling the family home. All items 70 to 200 years old and fragile. They did a fantastic job and everything arrived in great condition. A special thanks to Jose Garcia and his son Oscar, who packed, loaded, drove and unloaded my belongings. Jose and Oscar are first rate!

    5 Star Review

    Wheaton World Wide Moving moved our family from Indianapolis area to South Carolina. Their quote was competitive and fair. The movers were polite, professional, and took great care with all our belongings—the move included a baby grand piano. They were very hard workers. If you need moving services locally or cross-country, I highly recommend Wheaton.

    Estimate Options

    Accurate estimates require accurate information. Wheaton offers survey methods to gather what we need for your Iowa move. In-home surveys involve a coordinator visiting your Iowa property to assess what you’re moving. They’ll note items requiring special handling, discuss your timeline, and answer questions on the spot.

    Virtual surveys use video technology to accomplish the same goals remotely. You walk through your Iowa home with your phone or computer, showing us what’s being moved. Both methods result in a written estimate that details services and pricing. We’ll explain what’s included and what factors might affect final costs.

    Transparent estimates help Hawkeye State families budget accurately.
