Island Moving Services - Kelleys Island, OH
Kelleys Island is Ohio’s largest freshwater island, located in Lake Erie roughly four miles north of Marblehead. With a year-round population of fewer than 200 residents and a seasonal population that swells significantly during warmer months, moving to or from Kelleys Island requires a level of coordination and planning that goes well beyond a typical mainland move. Ferry schedules, seasonal road conditions on the island, and the limited vehicle access that comes with island life all factor into a well-executed Kelleys Island move.
Eyring Movers coordinates island moves through our Marblehead Area Sales Office at 5686 E Harbor Rd, Unit A4F, Marblehead, OH 43440. Our team has worked with Kelleys Island residents and seasonal property owners to plan moves that work within the island’s unique access realities. Call us at 419-752-9306 to discuss your Kelleys Island move with a local coordinator.
How We Handle Kelleys Island Moves
Moving to or from Kelleys Island requires coordinating with the Kelleys Island Ferry Boat Line operating out of Marblehead. Our team plans your move around ferry capacity and scheduling, ensures the right vehicle size is used for each ferry crossing, and coordinates loading and unloading on both the mainland and island sides of your move.
Island homes range from historic limestone-built cottages to newer lakefront properties, and many feature access considerations that require smaller equipment or hand-carry approaches for certain items. Our Marblehead-based crews are familiar with these dynamics and plan accordingly.
