In this episode, you'll hear how a 39-year-old family moving company in the Lehigh Valley passed from father to son, and why the handover nearly didn't happen. Jarred walks through how he runs a 3-truck, 8-man operation that turns away roughly 300 moves a year on purpose, and why he believes protecting his crew beats chasing volume every time. You'll also get a look inside his rare dual role as both moving company owner and licensed realtor, including the one settlement question that has saved 10 to 15 real estate deals this year alone.What you'll walk away with:-Why Jarred turns away 300 jobs a year and still keeps the business profitable-The unofficial takeover: how he and his mom quietly booked jobs behind his dad's back for nearly a year-The settlement timeline question every mover should ask before booking a closing day move-How to spot a nightmare customer from the tone of their first phone call-The custom builder analogy that justifies premium pricing without apologizing for it-Why 10-truck operations bleeding $5,000 to $20,000 a month convinced him to stay smallAbout the guest: Jarred Cury owns Moving by Cury, a family moving company founded by his parents in 1987, one year shy of its 40th anniversary.
