Why Family-Owned Businesses Are Better

Most businesses are not family-owned and operated. This can often leave CEOs power and money-hungry, with little to no concern for their employees or customers. All they see is the bottom line.

While the bottom line is certainly important to any business, family-owned businesses operate a little differently. They often have a set of immovable values, place a high emphasis on quality work, and work extra hard to please their customers. They are the type of businesses customers want!

You may notice that family-owned and operated businesses advertise this fantastic trait any time they can. Peavler Moving & Storage is no exception! We’re not your typical moving and storage business–we’re family! And when you hire us for your moving and storage needs, we treat you like one of our own!

Family-Owned Businesses Have a High Priority on Long-Term Strategies

Family-owned and operated businesses are family first. The business decisions they make will impact the family dynamics for generations, so they are more likely to weigh decisions carefully and come to a consensus whenever possible. This works in the customer’s favor because a family-owned business operates with unity and long-term goals instead of short-sighted shortcuts.

Family-Owned Businesses Have Strong Core Values

Many family businesses have strong core values that are the basis for their decisions. But these are not just the values of a wealthy businessman and the employees pay homage to, these are values the family drafted and committed!

No family wants their business to fail, so they have a laser focus on what will help their business succeed, which means family-owned businesses are often highly dedicated to their commitments.

Family-Owned Businesses Have a High Priority on Customer Service

Family-owned businesses know they compete with big-name companies who artificially lower their prices to get more customers. However, the trade-off is generally under the umbrella of customer service.

We’ve all been in the position of choosing the cheaper product to realize–it is a cheaper product! Even worse, the customer service is either impersonal (through an automated phone line, website chat, or email) or nonexistent.

Many family-owned businesses make up for slightly higher prices with quality services and customer care. Customers want to feel valued, understood, and appreciated just as much as paying a fair price for the product. In truth, family-owned businesses do value and appreciate each and every customer, so it’s easy for this to naturally overflow in our interactions with you.

Sometimes, the price tag doesn’t matter as much as the care and quality of service you receive from a business. This is certainly true when it comes to moving. You only get one chance to move your heirloom furniture or hard-earned possessions. While you might have mover’s insurance, this ultimately doesn’t replace the damage done to your belongings.

Peavler Moving & Storage has dozens of 5-star reviews from our pleased customers. Here’s just one from Clay Albright:

“The Peavler Family has always been tremendously helpful when we’ve needed them. They do what they promise, every single time. Working with Eric & Kat is always a pleasure. Whether you need your valued family furniture moved safely and with care, or need a storage unit to handle the overflow, the Peavler Family can take care of you!”

At Peavler Moving & Storage, we’re truly delighted to serve our customers!

In the end, you’ll be glad you hired a family-owned professional moving business rather than a big-name mover. We personally assist you so you have a quality, efficient moving and storage experience.

“Professional, Reliable, Trustworthy”

Our family has used Peavler Moving and Storage on six separate occasions over the past 31 years. We found them to be professional, reliable, trustworthy, and extremely knowledgeable in the care and moving of our belongings. They have moved us three times within Danville and three times out of state. Each time they took great care during the move. We also have used their storage facility. It was very clean and secure. We highly recommend for moves short or long, as well as storage needs.
