If youâre like many people in the community right now, you might be in the market for a new home. Whether building or buying, you have a lot of decisions to make â you need a mortgage and/or construction loan, a realtor, a builder, and, when the time comes, a moving company.
When it comes to finding a moving company, there are plenty of options out there â so how can you choose which one is right for you? Here are some things to look for.
First, be sure the company you choose is licensed and bonded. There are plenty of independent movers out there â but donât let the word âindependentâ fool you. That typically means they are unlicensed and uninsured. TWO MEN AND A TRUCK, on the other hand, is not only licensed and bonded, but they also pride themselves on hiring great movers â and they provide them with plenty of training, growth opportunities, and quality benefits.

A performer in the Sockrates Sock Puppet Carnival of Morals and Logic production Waiting for Spinal Wind.
The title may seem slightly threatening, until/unless you catch the reference: the comedic canon of mock documentary films (
Waiting for Guffman, This Is Spinal Tap, etc.) starring Christopher Guest, Harry Shearer, Michael McKean, Eugene Levy, Catherine O Hara, and many more talented cast members. An equally all-star lineup of Madison performers gathers virtually for a variety show featuring songs and skits from the films and other related material, all tied together by the inimitable Sockrates Sock Puppet Carnival of Morals and Logic. If you have not encountered the Sockrates troupe in the past, it s time to get acquainted. Donations benefit the Madison Children s Museum; the livestream premiere can be found on Facebook.
