Milestone Moving Co. has been moving families and businesses since 2006. Dale Whitmore leads this operation personally, and the standard he sets is simple: the quote we give you after surveying your home is the number you pay – not a starting point, not an estimate that grows on the ramp. One crew, start to finish, in uniform, on our payroll. And if anything isn’t right within 90 days of delivery, one call brings a crew or a check. That’s the 90-Day Done Right Promise, in writing.
- Free in-home or video estimate – no cost, no obligation
- $250 off moves over $2,500 (current offer)
- Free wardrobe boxes on every full-service move
- Live phone support 24/7 – before, during, and after your move
- 90-Day Done Right Promise – backed in writing
Fast, Local Moving
When you type “moving near me,” you want someone who knows the area and can actually get there quickly. Our trucks are garaged in the Kansas City metro, which means we’re not dispatching from a regional hub two hours away and hoping traffic cooperates. For most addresses inside Kansas City and the immediately surrounding suburbs, we can typically schedule within a tight window and confirm your exact arrival time the evening before. We call before we knock – always.
Same-day and short-notice moves happen. We won’t promise a slot we can’t fill, but because our crews are local, we have more flexibility than a national carrier coordinating from out of state. If your situation is urgent, call (855) 890-3455 directly and tell us your timeline. A live person will tell you exactly what’s available – no voicemail, no callback queue.
Serving Kansas City and the Towns Around It
Milestone’s Kansas City operation covers the full metro on both sides of the state line. Below is a straight account of where we work and what you can expect in each area. Every move in every town comes with the same binding quote, the same uniformed crew, and the same 90-Day Done Right Promise.
Olathe and Lenexa
Southwest Johnson County is some of our busiest territory. Olathe moving services and Lenexa moving services together cover some of the fastest-growing zip codes in the Kansas City metro. New construction is constant in both cities, and we regularly coordinate moves around HOA elevator reservations and loading-dock windows in the newer mixed-use developments along I-435. Binding quote, no surprises.
Independence and East Independence
Jackson County east of Kansas City proper is a distinct market with its own character. Our Independence moving services and East Independence moving services cover everything from the historic neighborhoods near the Truman Home to the newer subdivisions pushing out toward Blue Springs. Traffic on US-24 and I-70 is a real factor on move day, and our local crews account for it in the schedule rather than using it as an excuse after the fact.
Lee’s Summit and Blue Springs
These two eastern Jackson County cities attract a lot of families relocating for schools and more square footage. Lee’s Summit moving services handle everything from townhomes off M-291 to larger properties in the Summit Fair area. Blue Springs moving services cover a mix of established neighborhoods and newer builds near Adams Dairy Parkway. Both cities get the same crew accountability standards – background checks, uniforms, and a quote that doesn’t move.
Liberty and Gladstone
North of the river, Clay County has grown steadily, and we know it well. Our Liberty moving services serve both the older downtown neighborhoods and the newer developments near Liberty Hospital. Gladstone moving services cover a tighter, more urban footprint where parking logistics on move day require planning – something a local crew handles better than one that’s never driven the streets.
Leavenworth and Raytown
Leavenworth is its own distinct community northwest of the metro along the Missouri River, and the mix of historic homes near downtown and military-adjacent housing near Fort Leavenworth means moves there have specific requirements. Our Leavenworth moving services account for that. To the southeast, Raytown moving services serve one of Kansas City’s original suburban communities – a lot of mid-century ranch homes, smaller lots, and mature trees that require careful furniture navigation. We’ve done it many times.

We also handle piano and specialty moving, office and commercial moves, and moving with storage for situations where the timing doesn’t line up perfectly.

Frequently Asked Questions
How fast can Milestone get to me in Kansas City?
For most Kansas City metro addresses, we can schedule your move within a confirmed arrival window and notify you the evening before. Same-day availability depends on the current schedule – call (855) 890-3455 directly and a live person will tell you exactly what’s open. We don’t quote windows we can’t keep.
Do you serve towns outside Kansas City proper, like Lee’s Summit or Leavenworth?
Yes. Milestone serves the full Kansas City metro on both sides of the state line, including Olathe, Independence, Lee’s Summit, Blue Springs, Lenexa, Leavenworth, Liberty, Raytown, Gladstone, and East Independence. If you’re not sure whether your address is in our coverage area, call us and we’ll confirm immediately.
What will my move cost, and can the price change on move day?
Your Milestone quote is based on a real in-home or video survey of your home, and it is binding – the number does not increase on move day, on the ramp, or at delivery. Market rates for local Kansas City moves typically run between $400 and $3,500+ depending on home size. For a quote specific to your home, call (855) 890-3455 – the estimate is free.
What if something goes wrong after the movers leave?
The 90-Day Done Right Promise covers exactly that. For 90 days after delivery, if anything Milestone moved or packed isn’t right, one call to (855) 890-3455 brings a crew back or puts a check in your hand. Not a subcontractor. Not a claim form that sits in a queue. We handle it directly, because the crew that moved you works for us.

What Our Customers Say
"Wardrobe boxes and dish barrels were in the quote rather than sold to me as extras on the day. They hung both closets straight into the boxes on arrival and every plate came out of the barrel whole at the other end."
- Sofia Torres"Did the estimate over a video call and walked him through every room on my phone, including the garage and the shed I had forgotten about. The truck he sent was the right size and the final invoice landed within a few dollars of what he said on that call."
- Brandon Nguyen"Interstate move, and the part I was braced for was the delivery window that everyone else quoted me a week wide. They gave me a date, the driver called twice while he was on the road, and the truck was unloading on that date."
- Shane Brooks
