“Ken is just a fabulous, incredible guy. He is so courteous and professional. Everything about him and his people is good. He’s picked up about anything you could think of for me—from antiques to restaurant equipment—and brought it to our auction house. I get good feedback from my customers about how he handles the things they’re sending for sale. In fact, I know of at least one customer who was moving, and we sent Ken to her place for a few things she wanted us to sell at auction. She was so impressed with how efficient and competent Ken was that she cancelled her movers and hired him instead.”
- Bill Pirtle, Pirtle Auction Service
“Ken is a rock who stays patient and calm on the job. He moves furnishings to and from model homes several times a week for us. He has the right equipment and does whatever it takes to move things safely, even when that involves shoveling or putting runners down so things stay clean. Ken’s punctual, trustworthy, communicates well and we’ve been using him for several years. He even has an eye for decorating and knowing where to place things.
- Angel Grubb, Jerry’s Homes Inc.
“Ken’s very good to work with and we both use and recommend him all the time. He’s moved a whole house of furniture to the store for consignment, transported many expensive antiques and even just single items for us. Ken wraps things very well and covers everything for protection. Nothing has ever been damaged.”
- Kathy Cox, owner, Fashion Junction (consignment store)
“One of the Ankeny Historical Society members recommended Ken’s company when we were moving to our new barn location. We had many heavy and big display cases with lots of glass. He carefully wrapped glass shelves together so we knew what cases they belonged with. He was great to work with, so cooperative and patient, even when we changed our minds about where those heavy cases should be placed. Our members are a little older so we really appreciated having things done by someone who had the right equipment and knew what to do.”
- Marilyn Shay,Ankeny Historical Society
“We had no idea that moving could possibly be that much fun! You really did make our less-than-perfect-weather day to move be not even a consideration. You have the 5 Star rating with Tracy’s Concessions and Catering.”

“I know our fragile cultured marble countertops will arrive in one piece when Ken delivers them, and that’s not the case because I’ve had lots of experience with people who can’t do that. He’s quick and fits our deliveries into his schedule, whether he’s taking a countertop to a job site or into someone’s home. It always happens without a hitch. He’s very professional in his appearance and his conversations with our customers, and that’s also not the case with everyone who makes deliveries. Ken can do anything I’ve asked him to do, and I’ve used him for four years.”
“Ken’s company did an excellent job when we moved our entire gallery to its new location. I couldn’t have asked for a better job because he was so careful and accommodating. We moved some very expensive pieces of art and Ken suggested better ways to move things safely and expertly.”

“I wouldn’t have anyone but Ken move me! Whether your possessions are worth $20 or $2 million, he takes the same wonderful care of them. His rates are very reasonable and fair, and his attitude is always, “I’ll work with you.” He’s cheerful and never makes you feel like your changes are upsetting his day. He’s moved my daughter and her husband several times, and with their last transfer they were given a rental truck to move themselves across the state. Ken carefully loaded that truck securely for them, even though he wasn’t getting the entire moving job. He’s a saint on earth.”
- Jean Kranzler, residential customer
“Ken came highly recommended and he was amazingly wonderful. The time and effort he took created a quality move for me. I’ve used four or five other movers in the past and there was no comparison. He went above and beyond to be helpful. It was the little extras—like carefully, precisely and diligently putting things into place—that made the experience almost too good to be true!”
- Linda Henderson, residential customer
“Ken has moved me three times and twice moved my son within central Iowa. He’s a very helpful, accommodating guy with a great personality. He cares about you and he cares about your things. He does the job well and he’s prompt. Last time he moved my son’s one-room of furniture in just an hour. Ken breaks things down and he sets things up. Every time I hear someone is moving, I recommend Ken.”
- Sheila Mackey, residential customer
“I can’t say enough good things about Dreyer Hauling Service. I was very, very impressed with their professionalism in my move from Carlisle. They were considerate, respectful and stopped at my storage unit as requested. Nothing I asked for was a problem. I would definitely use them again and recommend them to others.”
- Kathy Danielson, residential customer
“Dreyer Hauling Service was on time and Ken knew exactly what he was doing. They did a super good job loading and unloading, with everything very neatly and securely packed in the truck. A friend had recommended him and another friend has used his service since then. It went very well.
- LeRoy Rotert, residential customer
“Ken made such an impression on me over the years that I carry his business cards in my car so I can recommend him. I was in the midst of packing for a move and saw Ken moving someone else. I walked over, talked to him about his services and pricing, and canceled my movers for the next day. Ken came over when he completed his job, helped me finish my packing and moved me yet that day. He has great pricing and he’s worth every penny of it. He’s since moved many small pieces for me as well. The company I worked for used him several times and it felt like he was one of us, not an outsider, when he stepped in to move the company. Plus, he was always flexible with our changing schedule.”
- Jackie Miller, residential customer
