Our Story
Moving Hawaii’s Families and Businesses with Aloha for Over 60 years
Moved by Aloha Since 1958
For more than six decades, Island Movers has been Hawaii’s trusted partner for home, business, and logistics services. What began in 1958 as a small, family-owned operation has grown into one of the state’s most respected transportation and moving companies. Through every stage of our history, one thing has stayed the same. We treat every move with care, integrity, and the spirit of Aloha.
Today, Island Movers continues to serve families, businesses, and government partners across Oahu, Maui, Kauai, and Hawaii Island as a leader in moving, storage, trucking, and logistics. Our strong roots in the local community guide everything we do, and our long-standing partnerships across the mainland and around the world help us move Hawaii forward with confidence.

Island Movers remains family-owned after more than 60 years in business.

We are honored to be consistently ranked among Hawaii’s Top 250 companies and repeatedly recognized as one of Hawaii’s Best Moving Services.
