10 Print Essentials That Get Your New Moving Company Booked Solid
Launching a moving company takes 10 print jobs, each carrying a different part of getting the phone to ring. Here is the full pack, in the order jobs actually come in, from the truck magnet that markets in traffic to the fridge magnet that wins next spring’s move.
The moving company launch pack is 10 print pieces that book your first jobs and keep the truck busy: yard signs, car magnets, business cards, business forms, flyers, door hangers, postcards, crew t-shirts, printed packaging tape, and business card magnets. Signs, magnets, shirts, and tape advertise while you work, cards and forms make the estimate look professional, and flyers, door hangers, postcards, and fridge magnets work the neighborhood before and after. Share one logo, two colors, and one typeface across all 10 and a brand-new crew reads as the established mover from day one.
The picks
Ten launch pieces, from $16.48 postcards to a $347.11 tape case
Signs and truck magnets first: a coroplast yard sign starts at $25 and a pair of car magnets at $47.50. Cards run $17.57 for 100, fridge magnets $19.68, crew shirts $21.96, flyers $57.11, forms $120.82 for 100 and door hangers $290.41 for 250. Give the door hangers and flyers one phone number and one logo, and read on for what each piece does.
Recommended add-on
Label every box while you are at it
A moving crew lives and dies by what is written on the carton. Branded premium product labels, from $29.16 in sizes from 3 in x 5 in to 5 in x 7 in or any size you enter, on white vinyl or paper label stock, turn plain boxes into a system: room names, fragile warnings, and your logo on every load. They keep the crew organized on move day and leave your name in the customer’s new home for weeks. Give them the same colors as your cards and signs, and explore the full product labels range and wider packaging and labels selection to round out the pack.
Design and print help
One phone number on coroplast, magnet, tape and cotton
The same logo and number go on a 4mm coroplast sign, a 30mil truck magnet, polypropylene packaging tape and a white or black crew shirt. Lock them once in the designer or a mover template, feel the card and sign stocks from free samples, and remember the tape takes 20 business days, so it goes on the first order.
How they work together
Spotted on the street, trusted at the door, called back next spring
Each piece owns a stage of the launch. Buy the whole sequence and no part of the funnel goes quiet, from the first sighting on the street to the follow-up that wins the next move.
Turn every job site and every drive into an ad. This is the visibility that works while your crew is already on the clock and the truck is already moving.
The card that gets handed over, the printed estimate that reads as professional, the uniform that earns trust at the door, the branded tape on every box, and the offer that fills a slow week. This is where a curious homeowner becomes a booked move.
Canvass the streets around a job while your truck is parked out front, then leave a magnet on the new fridge and mail the win-back that turns one move into a referral. Most new movers skip this stage, and it is why month two goes quiet.
1. Yard signs: the ad you plant at every job
The cheapest advertising a new mover owns is the lawn they are already working on. A yard sign staked at the curb tells everyone who drives by exactly who is moving the family next door, and it does it for the whole day the truck is parked out front. Neighbors notice moves, and a move usually means a few more are coming on the same street.
Keep the sign brutally simple: your name, one service line, and a phone number big enough to read from a slow-rolling car. Print a stack so you can leave one at every job and stake a couple near busy intersections during your first weeks. Order them from yard signs, and browse the wider home services printing collection when you are ready to match them to the rest of the pack.
One 18 in x 24 in sign on an H-stake covers one lawn for one day; a dozen of them, moved to every job you work, puts your number in front of a dozen streets a week.
2. Car magnets: turn the truck into a rolling billboard
Your truck already drives past thousands of people every week. A magnet turns that mileage into advertising you never pay per view for. Slapped on both doors, it works every stoplight, every highway crawl, and every hour parked outside a job, then peels off clean when the vehicle goes in for service or you want the driveway to stay unmarked.
Design it like a highway billboard, not a business card: a huge phone number, one clear promise, and enough contrast to read at speed. Print a matched pair so both sides of the truck sell, and keep spares for a second vehicle or a rented box truck on a heavy week. Configure a set from car magnets and lock the color to the rest of your pieces.
Every mile you were going to drive anyway puts the number in front of the cars around you.
3. Business cards: the referral engine in every pocket
At $17.57 for 100, the business card is the smallest piece in the pack and the one that travels furthest. A crew leader leaves one on the kitchen counter after the in-home estimate, a happy customer passes it to a coworker relocating next month, and your name is in a conversation you were never part of. Its whole job is to be handed over and be easy to call back.
Give the card a reason to survive a wallet. Put your booking number and a QR code on the back, and consider a sturdier stock so it does not go soft in a work jacket. Leave a few at every job, hand a small stack to every customer for their friends, and treat each one as a referral waiting to happen. Order them from standard business cards in the same color family as your signs so the pair feels intentional.
One card is a handshake. A box of them, all sharing your logo and number, is a quiet referral network running every time a move ends well. See how other trades build a matching set in the dental new-patient pack.
4. Business forms: the estimate that reads as professional
Nothing tells a homeowner you are a real company faster than a printed, numbered form. A branded estimate, work order, or bill of lading turns a nervous conversation about their whole house into a documented transaction they can hold. Carbonless copies mean the customer keeps one and your office keeps one, with no photos of a scribbled napkin to sort out later.
Set them up the way you actually work: line items for boxes and labor, a signature block, your terms on the back, and a form number so nothing goes missing. This is the piece that protects you when a claim comes up and the piece that makes a two-truck operation look like a fleet. Build your layout at business forms and print enough for the season in one run.
It is the least glamorous item in the pack and one of the most valuable, because it makes you look established and keeps you covered on the same sheet of paper.
5. Flyers: the offer that fills a slow week
A flyer is your company’s voice when you need to say one thing loudly: a launch discount, a free-wardrobe-box offer, a slow-season rate. It is cheap to print in volume, easy to leave at an apartment office or a college bulletin board, and it works because it carries a single clear deal instead of your full price list.
The whole flyer should build to one action. Pick the offer, make it the biggest thing on the page, and tell people exactly how to claim it and by when. Post them near new apartment complexes and campuses where people move constantly, and treat the flyer as the lever you pull whenever a week on the calendar looks too quiet. For layouts that hold attention, borrow from these design examples.
Print a stack for launch week, spread them where movers already gather, and keep a second design ready for the next slow stretch.
6. Door hangers: canvass the neighborhood around a job
While your truck is parked on a street for a full day, the whole block is watching. A door hanger lets you turn that attention into leads: hang one on every door within a few houses of the job, with a friendly note that you are working right on their street and a launch offer for their next move. It is targeted, local, and impossible to ignore the way a mailer is.
Door hangers beat flyers for this because they cannot be tossed with the junk mail. They wait on the handle until someone touches the door. Keep the message neighborly, lead with the offer, and put your number where a thumb lands. Order a run from door hangers and send a crew member around the block during the lunch break on every job.
It is the most efficient canvassing a mover can do, because you are already on the street the leads live on.
7. Postcards: the follow-up that wins the next move
A postcard reaches the people a truck and a sign never will: the household three streets over that plans to move next spring. Mailed to the blocks around your recent jobs, it introduces you to a defined neighborhood and gives them a reason to keep your number, whether that is a launch rate or a simple we just moved your neighbor message with a photo of the crew.
Postcards are also the cheapest way to earn a referral. A thank-you card after a move, or a spring win-back to last year’s customers, brings people back for the price of a stamp. Keep one design for canvassing new streets and one for following up with past moves, and browse the full home services collection to keep both on brand.
Turn it on any month the calendar looks light, and the postcard becomes a channel you control instead of a season you wait out.
8. Crew t-shirts: the uniform that earns trust at the door
Moving is a trust business. Your crew walks into a stranger’s home and handles everything they own, and a matching shirt is the fastest way to say these people are professionals, not a pickup crew from a classified ad. From the first doorbell ring, a uniform tells the customer they hired a company.
Print the logo on the chest and put the company name and phone number across the back, sized to read from across the street, because a loading crew is watched by every neighbor on the block for hours. Choose a fabric that survives heavy lifting and hot days, order in your two brand colors from custom t-shirts, and size the batch so a new hire is in uniform on their first job.
The shirt also works on the crew itself. People move more carefully in a shirt with a company name on it, and customers tip and refer the outfit that looked like one.
9. Printed packaging tape: your name on every box you seal
Every box your crew seals is advertising space you already own. Branded packaging tape puts your name and number on hundreds of cartons per move, and those cartons ride in elevators, sit in hallways, and stack in front of the new neighbors for days. No other piece in the pack earns that many impressions as a byproduct of the work itself.
It also reads as operational polish. A customer who watches their belongings sealed with printed, professional tape trusts the crew more than one taping with the plain beige roll from the hardware store. Keep the design simple, your logo repeated with the phone number, so it stays readable on a moving box. Order rolls from printed packaging tape in the same colors as your truck magnets and yard signs.
Pair it with the box labels in the add-on below and every carton your company touches becomes part of one branded system, from the old hallway to the new garage.
10. Business card magnets: the follow-up that lives on the new fridge
A paper card ends up in a drawer. A magnet ends up on the refrigerator of the home you just moved someone into, and it stays there for years. When that family recommends a mover to friends, plans the next move, or needs a couch shifted across town, your number is already on the most-viewed surface in the house.
Hand one over at the end of every job, right at the moment the customer is most grateful, and leave a second for the neighbor who held the door. Keep the design identical to your paper card so the brand stays consistent, and print the batch from business card magnets alongside the rest of the pack so the color matches piece for piece.
It costs about as much as the paper card and outlives it by a decade. For a business built on rare, high-value purchases, that staying power is the whole game.

Common Questions
Common questions about the moving company launch pack
What is the moving company launch print pack?
It is a curated set of 10 print pieces that cover a new moving company from first sighting to booked job: yard signs, car magnets, standard business cards, business forms, business flyers, door hangers, postcards, crew t-shirts, printed packaging tape, and business card magnets. Each one handles a different stage of turning a stranger on the street into a paying move, and they are built to share one look so a brand-new crew feels established from week one.
In what order should I order and use these pieces?
Follow the phone. Put yard signs at every job and magnets on the truck first so the whole neighborhood sees you working. Keep business cards, business forms, flyers, crew shirts, and branded tape ready so every estimate and every move day feels professional. Then lean on door hangers, postcards, and fridge magnets to canvass and follow up. Printed tape takes 20 business days, so order it well before your first weekend of jobs.
Do I need all 10 pieces to launch a moving company?
You can launch with fewer, but each gap costs you a stage of the funnel. Skip the yard signs and magnets and you lose the free advertising that runs while you are already on a job. Skip door hangers, postcards, and fridge magnets and you win a customer once, then have no built-in way to work the street they live on or bring them back. The pack is built so no stage goes quiet, which is why the 10 are stronger together than apart.
How do I keep all 10 pieces looking like one brand?
Set the phone number first, because it has to read on a 4mm coroplast yard sign, a 30mil truck magnet, a 2 in wide band of packaging tape and a 2 in x 3.5 in card. Then repeat your logo, the same two brand colors and one typeface, with the number in the same spot each time. That consistency is what makes a first-month mover read as trustworthy to someone handing over their whole house. The fastest way to hold the line is to start from a shared set of design templates or build each piece in the online designer, then print the whole pack from one place so the color renders the same across signs, cards, and postcards.
Why start with yard signs and car magnets instead of just cards?
Signs and magnets are the only pieces here that advertise while you work, at no extra cost per view. A magnet on the truck earns impressions at every stoplight and a sign on the lawn tells the neighbors exactly who is moving the family next door. For a new company with no reputation yet, that visible proof of work in the neighborhood does more than a card sitting in a drawer, which is why it belongs at the front of the launch.
Should a moving company add box labels to the pack?
Yes, and it is the most useful add-on there is. Branded product labels turn plain cartons into a system: room names, fragile warnings, and your logo on every box you touch. It keeps the crew organized on move day and puts your name in the customer’s new home for weeks after. Browse premium product labels alongside the pack and give them the same colors as your cards and signs.
How much does the full moving company launch pack cost to print?
At starting quantities: postcards $16.48, business cards $17.57 for 100, business card magnets $19.68, a crew shirt $21.96, a yard sign $25, a pair of car magnets $47.50, 50 flyers $57.11, business forms $120.82 for 100, door hangers $290.41 for 250 and a case of printed tape $347.11. One of each comes to about $964, and the tape, door hangers and forms are most of it because they are bought in the counts you use on the job. Set your quantities in the configurator on each product and the price updates as you go.
