Lumping Services in Wisconsin

At Dan the Moving Man, we offer professional lumping services in Wisconsin for freight carriers, warehouses, and distribution centers.

Whether a load has shifted during transit or needs to be reorganized for delivery, our experienced team is ready to step in and get the job done efficiently. We specialize in freight unloading, repacking and recovery services to keep your operations running smoothly.

Along with freight lumping, we provide labor-only movers for households and businesses. You supply the truck, trailer or container, and our movers supply the moving labor to load it, unload it or reorganize it. That covers rental trucks, portable storage containers, trailers and freight loads.

Our movers work out of Eau Claire, Kronenwetter, Onalaska and Rhinelander, backed by 15 years in the moving business. Both kinds of jobs come down to the same skill: loading heavy, awkward items so they stay put in transit and come off undamaged. Want us to bring the truck too? Book full residential movers or long-distance movers instead.

If you are driving your own rental truck or using a portable container, our movers load it for you. We pad furniture, stack boxes in a tight order and tie off the load so it does not shift on the road. At the other end, we can unload it and carry everything inside.

Labor-only help is also useful when you need to:

• Move heavy furniture between rooms or floors of the same home
• Load a container for storage or a long drive
• Unload a truck that a friend or family member drove
• Clear a room before new flooring or a renovation

Want us to handle the truck too? Book full residential movers or long-distance movers instead.

Lumping is the manual loading, unloading, sorting or repacking of freight inside semi-trailers, box trucks and shipping containers. We provide lumping services for:

• Freight carriers and drivers
• Warehouses and distribution centers
• Freight companies and brokers
• Direct shippers

Common Lumping Jobs

• Freight that tipped or shifted during transit
• Broken pallets that need to be restacked or shrink-wrapped
• Loads that need to be reorganized to meet a receiver’s requirements
• Driver assistance at locations that have no dock labor

We send movers to docks and job sites across our service areas, and we travel farther when the job calls for it. Call (715) 214-7583 with the location, the trailer or container size and what needs to happen to the freight.

Where We Provide Moving Labor and Lumping

Our movers work out of Eau Claire, Kronenwetter, Onalaska and Rhinelander. That puts labor within reach of Eau Claire, Chippewa Falls and Menomonie, the I-90 docks in La Crosse and Onalaska, the I-39 and WI-29 corridor in Wausau, Weston, Stevens Point and Plover and the US-8 area around Rhinelander.

What to Tell Us When You Book Labor

• The address or dock location and the time you need movers
• The size of the truck, trailer or container
• Whether you need loading, unloading or both
• For freight, the pallet count and what needs to happen to the load
• For households, the size of the home and any heavy items

How We Load a Truck So Nothing Shifts

Heavy furniture and appliances go in first against the front wall. Boxes are stacked in tight tiers with the heaviest on the bottom, and mattresses and soft items fill the gaps. We tie off each section of the load so it stays in place on the drive.
