Union Lake isn’t just another suburb – it’s lake life with metro convenience. Those 465 acres of water create moving scenarios you won’t find elsewhere. Dock access can make or break your moving day. Seasonal lake homes have unique timing concerns. Waterfront properties often mean long driveways, multiple levels, and specialized items like boats and water equipment. You need movers Detroit lakefront homeowners trust, not companies learning on the job.
We’ve been handling Union Lake’s distinctive moves since the 70s, developing techniques specifically for properties with water views, steep grades, and weather considerations that change with Michigan’s seasons.
Deep Community Connections
When Professional Movers Detroit trucks roll through Union Lake, we’re greeted by name. That’s what happens when you’ve moved generations of the same families. We know which coves freeze earliest in winter (affecting driveway access), which neighborhoods have restrictive HOAs with specific moving hours, and which lakefront properties require smaller trucks due to narrow access roads.
Our crews don’t waste time figuring out where to park at The Harbors apartment complex or navigating the tight streets in older lakeside neighborhoods. This insider knowledge means your move finishes faster, with your belongings protected from the unique moisture and temperature issues that lakefront living creates.
Customized Moving Approaches
Union Lake homes aren’t cookie-cutter, so why would your moving plan be? Lake properties often feature custom layouts, multiple decks, walk-out basements, and valuable recreational equipment. Our approach adapts to these unique challenges. Have a 400-pound granite countertop for your waterfront kitchen renovation? We bring specialized equipment. Need your boat trailer relocated to winter storage? We’ve got you covered.
Moving into a fourth-floor condo at The Lake Condominiums with no service elevator? Our teams have perfected efficient strategies for exactly these scenarios. Your personalized plan addresses the specific quirks of your property, protecting both your belongings and the home itself from damage during transition.

Clear, Honest Pricing
Lakefront moving comes with unique challenges, but that doesn’t mean unpredictable pricing.

Our Moving Consultants actually worked as movers themselves, giving them practical insight into what your specific situation requires.
The written estimate you receive reflects these real-world considerations, not some lowball figure designed to hook you before the “extras” pile up. We price honestly because we value long-term relationships over one-time gains.
