I’m Derek Vandenberg, owner of West Michigan Moving Company. Allegan County runs south of Grand Rapids along US-131, farm-and-river country on the Kalamazoo River. Allegan is the seat, with Wayland, Otsego, and Plainwell strung down the corridor toward Kalamazoo. We’ve run this ground since 2015, and Andre Coleman leads the southbound US-131 lane.
The county mixes Wayland’s fast-growing subdivisions, Plainwell and Otsego’s historic river-mill downtowns, and open farm acreage around Allegan. My crew sizes the truck and plans the access for each before we roll south.
Allegan County towns we cover
- Allegan — the county seat, historic Kalamazoo River downtown
- Wayland — fast-growing US-131 subdivisions and farm edge
- Otsego and Plainwell — river-mill towns with older, tighter downtown lots
City block or country lane, one price. A tight Plainwell downtown alley and a Wayland gravel farm drive are the same to us — scouted ahead, sized for the right truck, and quoted as one flat rate before we load.
Flat-rate pricing — Allegan County
| Crew | Rate | Includes |
|---|---|---|
| 2 movers + truck | $149/hr | Blankets, dollies, shrink-wrap, tarps, floor protection |
| 3 movers + truck | $199/hr | All of the above plus a third set of hands for stairs or a farmhouse load |
One-hour minimum. Flat rate locked in writing before we load — the US-131 drive south is built into the quote, no surprise line item at the truck.
How an Allegan County move runs
Most Allegan County jobs are residential full-house moves — a Wayland family into a new build, an Otsego household downsizing, or a farm relocation near Allegan. We run long-distance service both directions on US-131, same crew loading and unloading.
You’ll find the complete town list and prep notes on the service-areas hub.

Derek’s Grand Rapids crew has already worked the Heritage Hill walk-ups, the Cascade and Ada subdivisions, the township gravel drives and the tight downtown curb windows across Allegan County more times than we can count.
