2 College Brothers
US DOT: 2787568
What began as a resourceful response to recession-era unemployment has evolved into an award-winning moving enterprise with an unparalleled commitment to customer satisfaction. Founded in 2010 by Wade Swikle, 2 College Brothers emerged from humble origins when Swikle, then a college baseball player struggling to find work, turned to Craigslist to offer moving services. His athletic background proved advantageous, as clients readily embraced the concept of hiring capable college athletes for their relocations. Throughout its 14-year history, the company has demonstrated remarkable growth, expanding from its original Gainesville base to establish thriving operations in Tampa and San Antonio, Texas. This expansion represents just the beginning of their nationwide ambitions, with franchising initiatives already underway since 2023. What truly distinguishes 2 College Brothers in the competitive moving landscape is their signature "Raving Fan Money Back Guarantee"—an industry-exclusive promise that offers refunds for any crew member who fails to meet customer expectations. This confidence in their service quality stems from their rigorous "Titan Up Training Program" and employee selection process that prioritizes attitude before aptitude. The company operates under four foundational principles: "Be Honest, Own It, Hone It, and Hustle," which guide every aspect of their business operations. These values have propelled them to impressive achievements, including servicing over 15,000 moves, generating more than 1,700 five-star Google reviews, and winning multiple accolades such as the Gainesville Area Chamber of Commerce Best Overall Small Business (2016) and the Gainesville Sun Best Moving Service for six separate years. Perhaps most innovative is their creation of a dedicated "Chief of Raving Fans" position—a role solely focused on ensuring exceptional customer experiences before, during, and after each move. This attention to client satisfaction, combined with their comprehensive service offerings and community involvement through charitable partnerships, has transformed 2 College Brothers from a one-man operation into "The Smartest Move You'll Ever Make™" across their expanding service territories.
