We’re the Cincinnati and Greater Cincinnati movers who write the number down before we touch a single box — whatever’s on your quote is what lands on your invoice, nothing more. No fuel line added at the curb, no surprise stair fee, no new charge dreamed up mid-move. We’ve run trucks out of Camp Washington since 2015, carrying a full OH HHG license and $1M in cargo coverage on every single load.
Melissa Ferring picks this up herself at the Camp Washington office and calls back same-day with a written price — ask for Daniel Scott Lang directly if you’d rather talk to the owner, he still answers his own line. Nothing about your ZIPs or your date gets forwarded anywhere else: no lead resold, no subcontractor showing up in an unmarked truck, no stranger at your door who’s never heard the name DSL Moving before today.
“Just finished up our move and we are SO pleased with the service. Our movers were Trent, Aaron, and Curtis, and they were so kind, efficient, and nothing at all was broken/lost. They made moving as stress-free as it could be. We've moved a few times and they were the best movers we've had so far! Highly recommend.”
Daniel Scott Lang grew up in Norwood, where his grandfather once ran a hauling outfit out of Camp Washington — so when Daniel opened DSL Moving in 2015 after eight years managing routes for a regional mover, the rule was simple: the number you sign is the number you pay. 11 years later, that’s still the only pricing model we run.
Every mover on the crew is W-2, background-checked, and trained out of the Spring Grove Avenue yard — no leased trucks, no staffing-app strangers. Whether it’s a walk-up in Mason or a split-level near Sharonville, the same pads, dollies, and quoted price show up, backed by a current Ohio HHG license and US DOT/MC authority for anything crossing state lines.
Hyde Park two-flats, Mt. Adams walk-ups, Clifton bungalows, West Chester subdivisions — Cincinnati households tend to post wherever they found us first. Here’s the running tally.
“Just finished up our move and we are SO pleased with the service. Our movers were Trent, Aaron, and Curtis, and they were so kind, efficient, and nothing at all was broken/lost. They made moving as stress-free as it could be. We've moved a few times and they were the best movers we've had so far! Highly recommend.”
“Very professional, fast and efficient. The office staff as well as my movers, Aaron and Curtis. If you want absolutely no headaches or worries, this crew will get it done.”
“Daniel and Brody were a 10/10! Made everything so easy and seamless! Would recommend to anyone! Thanks again”
Every line below is a real job from last week across Greater Cincinnati, and every price matches what the customer actually signed for. Curtis had Norwood and Blue Ash on his board this week; Brody split his time between the West Chester side and one long-distance haul.
Updated dailyA $289 upright piano across town and a $1,225 three-bedroom heading south on I-71 toward Louisville get quoted the same way — whatever number goes out with the estimate is the number on the invoice. Brody’s crew has done plenty of small-office moves too, including a handful booked on a few days’ notice, weekday or Saturday, with no rush fee tacked on.
Fully licensed OH household-goods mover, DOT and MC authority filed for interstate work, full-value cargo protection on every move — a Hyde Park two-flat or a Cincinnati-to-Louisville haul on I-71, the paperwork is settled before Curtis pulls a truck out of the yard.
Ask five other movers what “flat rate” actually means and you’ll get five different answers once the truck’s loaded — a fuel line here, a stair charge there. Trent builds all of that in up front, so wrapping the banister, padding doorframes, and protecting hundred-year-old hardwood in a Clifton bungalow never turns into a surprise line item. Weekends don’t cost extra. Cards don’t cost extra. The number is the number.
Every quote from DSL Moving is the actual number your crew works from, not a placeholder subject to change once the truck is loaded. No line item shows up that wasn’t on the paper you signed. Daniel built the whole pricing model around that one rule after watching add-on charges turn a fair estimate into a bad afternoon, more times than he cared to count.
Fifteen minutes on video or a short in-person visit, and Trent Oberholtzer has counted every stair, every heavy piece, every doorway that’s going to need extra care — all of it lands on the estimate before your move day arrives, so the crew isn’t discovering surprises with a couch halfway through a doorframe.
No out-of-state call center answering your call. Our crew already knows the tight Mt. Adams streets, the Over-the-Rhine freight elevators, the no-elevator Hyde Park walk-ups — 11 years of real Cincinnati addresses baked into every quote.
Trucks leave the Camp Washington yard heading four directions on a normal week: I-75 up through Sharonville and Blue Ash, I-71 out toward Mason and Loveland, I-74 on the westside, and the I-275 loop connecting the rest. Anywhere on that map, or close enough to it, Aaron can typically find you a slot inside seven days.
“I still answer my own phone most days, and I still sign every quote before it goes out — not because I don’t trust the team, but because that promise is the whole reason DSL Moving exists. If the number I sign isn’t the number you pay, I’ve failed at the one job that matters.”
You won't find an add-on fee buried anywhere in a DSL Moving quote — the crew, the truck rolling out of Camp Washington, every pad and dolly, plus federal cargo coverage are already folded into the one number you get. Everything listed below rides along at no extra charge.
Shoot over both ZIPs and the week you're targeting, and Trent has a flat number back in your inbox inside the hour — not a range, a number. Daniel personally signs off on every quote before it goes out the door.
