Company Profile

Colonial Van Lines is a family-owned, full-service, long-distance moving company that specializes in long-distance, interstate relocations. Founded in 2003, the company is headquartered in Pompano Beach, Florida, and has about 250 employees nationwide. Colonial Van Lines provides customized moving plans to meet various needs of clients, from residential to commercial relocations.

Company History and Milestones

Colonial Van Lines traces its roots back to the 1980s when the Disorbo family started the business. At just 21, Mr. Disorbo borrowed $2,000 from his father and began helping families in Broward County move, using his truck and limited garage storage in Coral Springs, FL. In 1988, he launched his first moving company, The Right Move. His forward-thinking approach later led to the creation of the moving brokerage business, connecting home movers with independent movers, whose equipment often sat idle, reducing costs and maximizing efficiency. He also played a key role in founding several other successful moving companies, which continue to thrive today.

Over 30 years later, Mr. Disorbo is still a pioneer, now running his latest venture, Moving Squad, a South Florida moving company. Moving Squad specializes in intrastate and local home and apartment moves, offering storage services for government, corporate, military, and private clients. The company’s vision is to expand its franchise model and become a leader in over 250 U.S. cities.

Today, Colonial Van Lines continues to evolve with technology, aiming to convert its fleet of trucks and trailers to electric by 2028. The company has also embraced a paperless future with the industry-first COLONIAL MOVING APP, allowing users to complete virtual moving estimates in just minutes.
