Company History

From its humble beginning, two recent high school graduates unable to pay for college, or "starving students," dug a borrowed "Dodge Power Wagon," a former World War II weapons carrier used to tow cannons, out of a mudslide. These two students painted "Starving Students" on the side of the Wagon, parked it on a local highway, and their successful moving company was born.

Starving Students opened its first branch in the basement of a log cabin that was the former home of Tom Mix, a silent movie star. This branch was located in Laurel Canyon, a suburb of Los Angeles, California. At the time, many famous movie stars and musicians lived in the Canyon, and Starving Students became their preferred full service moving company .

With hundreds of trucks in their fleet, Starving Students is currently one of California and Nevada's largest home movers, moving tens of thousands of families every year. The moving company's corporate headquarters is based in Southern California.
