I’m Derek Vandenberg, and I grew up on the Dutch West Side, so Walker is home turf. It’s just northwest of downtown across the Grand River — Alpine Avenue retail, the industrial parks off Turner and Three Mile, and the Standale district out Lake Michigan Drive. We handle its mix of workforce homes and small commercial the same way: one written flat rate, our own crew.
Homes and storefronts, one crew
Walker runs half residential, half light-commercial. Whether it’s a Standale bungalow or a small office off Alpine, Marcus Poole sizes the right truck and schedules around loading docks and business hours, so you’re not paying idle time.
Walker flat-rate examples
| Job | Crew | Typical flat |
|---|---|---|
| 2-bed Standale bungalow | 2 movers + truck | $780 – $1,150 |
| 3-bed west-side home | 3 movers + truck | $1,250 – $1,900 |
| Small office or storefront | 3 movers + truck | $1,400 – $2,200 |
| Walker → downtown Grand Rapids | 2 movers + truck | $560 – $860 |
What Walker moves include
- Two movers + truck at $149/hr, three at $199, one-hour minimum.
- Dock and business-hours scheduling for storefronts and offices.
- Blankets, dollies, shrink-wrap, and tarps in the flat rate.
- Licensed, bonded, and insured — our own W-2 crew, never a broker.

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 Walker more times than we can count.
