“Okay, let us move it.” That was the response from Archie Baum in 1936 when he was just a young, hungry entrepreneur with a vision to build a moving and storage company. Customers called with a load of things to move and he simply said “Okay, let us move it.”

Bravely Onward Films: OK Transfer
Home
Today, it’s more than a phrase. It’s a philosophy. That same uncomplicated, whatever-it-takes approach is what OK Transfer customers love – and is a large part of what has sustained the business for seven decades.
“Our repeat clients choose OK Transfer because we do get the work done. We go the extra mile. We do not turn jobs down.”
– Andrea Baum
Even when difficult economic times hit hard in 2008 – and 11% of family-owned, small moving companies in the U.S. closed their doors – the Baum family was determined to find a way to, quite literally, keep moving.
They did. And today, OK Transfer stands strong again as the company that the people of Wichita trust to move everything – from heavy equipment for commercial businesses down to the smallest detail of a residential move. It started with Archie’s simple, heartfelt response and today remains the backbone of what sets OK Transfer apart: understanding that it’s about so much more than a truck that deliver goods. It’s about people who deliver peace of mind.
“It’s very scary for somebody to just let a company load all of their belongings, their baby books, their wedding albums, every detail of their life and take off.”
– Andrea Baum
OK Transfer’s reputation for having employees who take care of customers is the result of creating a company that takes care of its employees. It is a family company not only in ownership, but in every sense of the word. That’s why, in an industry not often associated with warmth and personal touch, OK Transfer’s customers know and trust that beyond the boxes and packages, the entire experience will be handled with care.
