Company Info
Since 2007, 5 Star Moving & Storage has been dedicated to serving the Colorado Springs community and its neighboring areas. We take pride in being a women-founded and women-operated business. Our commitment to excellence has earned us a place in the Department of Defense’s relocation program since 2010, and we’ve been proud agents of Wheaton/Arpin since 2012.
Our journey began when our founder and CEO, Melysa Benedict, brought her wealth of experience from the Denver market to Colorado Springs. She recognized the need for an honest and customer-centric moving company, so she started 5 Star from the ground up. We commenced our operations in Old Colorado City with a small office and just one truck.
By focusing on local in-state moves, we have built a strong and loyal customer base, all while establishing a reputation for delivering exceptional quality. Our driving force has always been to enhance the customer experience, an aspect often overlooked in an industry known for cutting corners, subpar labor, and price gouging.
At 5 Star, our mission is clear: to replace the common “horror story” experiences people have had with professional movers. We aim to curate a seamless, professionally managed moving experience that shines through every step on the path to your new home.
From your initial quote within the comfort of your home to packing, loading, and delivery, we exclusively employ full-time staff – no temporary help or day laborers. Our team members undergo rigorous and ongoing training, covering everything from packing techniques to furniture blanket wrapping and ensuring a superior customer experience. We’re proud to impart Wheaton Van Line’s Service Excellence training to each crew member.
