AI automation, websites and security for small movers and junk haulers in Michigan

Each request becomes an estimate draft.

Leases turn over in summer, and families clear out a house all year. I set up assistants that draft an estimate from the rooms or items in the request, on your tariff, and the crew sheet the afternoon before. A person approves every estimate.

No set-up fee. Renews monthly; cancel with 30 days' notice.

Built, hosted and looked after for $49 a month, billed monthly. No set-up fee. Month 1 is charged when you start.

I’m Kevin Ferron. Through Kevin Ferron Tech Consultancy & Digital Agency (KFTCDA), based in the Detroit metropolitan area, I build, host and look after websites, set up AI automation, set up account and device security and build fixed-price software for small movers and junk haulers in Michigan.

Updated

Five example layouts for a moving and hauling site. The business is invented, and every layout is fully customizable: yours is designed with you on the intake call.

AI help with estimates and crew planning for movers and haulers

The site brings the enquiry in. A few assistants can then do the office work behind it, each with one job and only the tools it needs, and a person approves anything that goes out.

Likely first jobs: Estimates from the request; Day-before job sheet; Junk disposal list.

An agent graph for movers and junk removal3 triggers, Quote request, Customer sends photos and Day before, 15:00, feed a coordinator that plans and routes. It delegates to 4 agents: Estimate drafter (estimates) with Moving CRM (read) and Email (draft), Job planner (crew and truck) with Calendar / dispatch (draft) and Job app (read), Disposal sorter (item rules) with Item list / photos (read) and Customer updates (confirmations) with SMS / email (draft). A reviewer checks each draft: Checks each draft against the tariff rates and the estimate type. A failed check goes back to the agent that made it. Then a person approves (Every estimate, Date or crew changes and Damage or claim replies), and only then is the output produced: Estimate drafts and Crew job sheets.Quote requestCustomer sends photosDay before, 15:00planCoordinatorplans and routesdelegateEstimate drafterestimatesMoving CRM (read)Email (draft)Job plannercrew and truckCalendar / dispatch (draft)Job app (read)Disposal sorteritem rulesItem list / photos (read)Customer updatesconfirmationsSMS / email (draft)checkReviewerTariff rates, estimate typeretryA person approvesEvery estimateDate or crew changesDamage or claim repliesapproveEstimate draftsCrew job sheets

Reviewer

Checks each draft against the tariff rates and the estimate type.

Never without a person

No assistant sends or changes an estimate, calls one binding, quotes outside the tariff, answers a damage claim, or says an item can go in the trash when the disposal rules flag it.

What the site can have for small movers and junk haulers

These are examples of what the site can have. There is one enquiry form, and the pages are agreed on the intake call.

  • A quote request by rooms or items

    The enquiry form can ask for the address, the number of rooms or a list of the items, and sends each request to you.

  • A clean-out page

    For example, a page for families clearing a home after a downsize, in plain words about how a clean-out day goes.

  • Moving season on top

    Tell me when summer moves start and the home page leads with moving. Switching to junk hauling and clean-outs afterwards is a text change.

How it works

  1. Ask and start

    Send a short enquiry with the form. I reply within 24 hours. Use the link to start. No set-up fee. Month 1 is charged when you start.

  2. Send what I need

    You send the words and photos, and the intake call sets out exactly what I need. On the intake call we agree the pages and the enquiry form.

  3. Build, preview, live

    I build it, and you see it before it goes live. From then on I host it, keep it updated and fix what breaks, and I make the small updates you ask for.

The whole process, step by step →

What is included

  • A site built for you: I build it from what you send me, and you see it before it goes live.
  • Hosting and looking after it: Hosting, backups, security updates and fixes when something breaks are part of the monthly price.
  • Small updates: Changes to text, photos, hours and prices after launch are included. New pages or features are quoted separately.
  • Fast, and built for local search: Pages that load quickly on a phone, set up for local search, with an enquiry form that sends each request straight to you.
  • Online booking on Square Appointments: I set it up on your own Square account: up to 5 services, your availability, a deposit taken through your own Square account, reminders, an embed on your site and a link from Google, and one test booking, recorded.
  • Google Analytics events: Every site on the plan sends Google Analytics events for taps to call and email, the enquiry form, clicks to book where the site has Square booking, directions and pages, to a property that you own, at no extra cost. See the events→
  • A privacy page: A short privacy page on your site that says, in plain words, that the site uses Google Analytics.
  • Me, directly: No account manager and no junior bench. You write to me and I answer.

Move-day addresses and codes

Your phones and logins

Move dates, addresses and lockbox codes, and crew phones and dispatch sign-ins, need sign-in setup and device management.

  • An account and device stock-take
  • Sign-in setup
  • Device management
  • Backups
  • A quarterly routine

Ask about your phones and logins→

A fixed-price job, if the tools don’t do it

A photo estimate form into your moving software, or crew job-sheet prints.

A free scoping call picks the size of the job, and a fixed price comes in writing before anything starts.

What the rules say, for small movers and junk haulers

Who licenses household goods movers in Michigan?

A mover needs a certificate of authority for in-state household goods moves. It is administered by the Michigan State Police’s Commercial Vehicle Enforcement Division, not MDOT, and carriers renew each year. A USDOT number alone is not proof of authority. Interstate moves fall under FMCSA. This is not legal advice.

Sources: Motor Carrier Act, MCL 477.1; Michigan State Police, Commercial Vehicle Enforcement Division, regulatory. Checked .

Questions from movers and haulers

Yes. Michigan requires a certificate of authority for household goods moves within the state (MCL 477.1), and your site can show your authority number. This is not legal advice, so check the current rules with the state.

Yes. The form can ask about stairs, elevators and where the truck can park, along with the rooms or the items. The questions are agreed on the intake call.

Yes. Each can have a page, with the one in season first. Changing the order is a text change. Small updates after launch (text, photos, hours, prices) are included. New pages or features are quoted separately.

It drafts an estimate from the rooms or items listed and your price book, and flags what is still missing. A person approves every estimate, and none is called binding.

If you have one, it can sit on every page. The site shows what you give me and nothing else.

No set-up fee. Month 1 is charged when you start. It renews automatically each month. You can cancel any time with 30 days' notice.

It is built for local search and I check that your pages are indexed before I call it done. Nobody can promise a ranking, and I will not.

You do, either way. The domain is bought and paid for separately from the monthly price. It stays in your name, and you keep it if you leave.

Ready for a site that fills the truck?

Start the site before the summer lease turnover, or tell me which jobs fill your truck. I reply within 24 hours.

No set-up fee. Renews monthly; cancel with 30 days' notice.
