Terry Jaszkowski owns Pro Moves (The Moving Professionals) moving company in Hamilton Ontario, which has been providing business and home moving services since 1987.

Education

Terry attended Gibson Elementary then Scott Park High, where many lifelong friendships were made. After high school, he was on to Mohawk College for an Electrical Engineering Degree before graduating with a B.A. Economics at Montreal’s Concordia University.

Starting Pro Moves

Big and small next steps

Upon graduating with an B.A. in Economics in 1985, Terry played professional basketball for the Osnabrück Giants in Germany’s first division. A torn ACL ended his career in his first season and wound up in Toronto to help grow Move-it-Now; a moving business started by his brother Walter.

Move-it-Now started off doing small moves and deliveries but within a couple of years Walter and Terry bought more trucks, expanded the crew and were doing bigger moves for law firms, banks, YMCA’s and a wide variety of other businesses in the Greater Toronto and Hamilton Areas.

In 1987, the brothers decided to split Move-it-Now into two separate entities in order to serve Toronto and Hamilton more effectively. Walter’s Move-it-Now took care of the area around Mississauga and Toronto, while Terry rebranded Move-it-Now into Pro Moves which focused on The Greater Hamilton Area.

Pro Moves’ Growth

Commercial and Residential Moving

At first Pro Moves was doing mostly home moving around the Hamilton area, then quickly transitioned to business moving for medical and professional offices, hospitals, and educational institutions. Pro Moves had developed a solid reputation for its professionalism and ability to over-deliver and began to market itself as The Moving Professionals.

By the mid-nineties Pro Moves acquired contracts with The City of Hamilton, all of Hamilton’s Hospitals, and McMaster University and they are still their valued clients today.

Today

Pro Moves has completed thousands of moves over the past 35 years with only one insurance claim.
