    Spartanburg’s Pride: The Rise of Carey Moving & Storage

    Carey Moving & Storage was founded in South Carolina during the early 1900s when the moving industry was still in its early stages. Despite starting as a small local business, Carey quickly became a well-known name in the industry. This journey allowed us to emerge from the local community and grow into a major player in the national sphere. Spartanburg’s strategic location and rich history played a significant role in Carey’s success, as it became our company’s headquarters in 1907.

    A Game-Changing Partnership: Extending Eastward

    In 1928, Carey experienced a significant turning point in its history when we became a founding member of Allied Van Lines. This partnership was a game-changer for Carey and allowed us to expand their services along the Eastern coast of the United States. The impact of this decision was profound and transformed our business.
