This weekend in Indianapolis, machines built for combat will battle each other to the death all for the sake of their creators’ affection, which is to say that the National Robotics League Championships are here! Tomorrow Indianapolis residents will enjoy the carnage as robots of all shapes and sizes destroy each other for the sake of science! You may wonder, “why put so much time effort (and money!) into building something doomed for destruction?” The pursuit of happiness can exist in many forms, and one thing is for sure, members of the National Robotics League get a lot of joy out of watching their creations go to battle, even if an untimely end awaits!

Your Indianapolis movers are a team of well-oiled machines, but don’t expect to see us battling it out with the other robots! We need our movers in prime condition to provide top-notch relocation services for our customers! Plus, apparently there is a strict ‘no-humans-allowed’ rule in effect. Oh well, maybe next year!

The now defunct Busch Stadium in Indianapolis will soon provide seating for IndyGo bus stops all over town. Prior to being moved to their various locations, the stadium seats will be dismantled, cleaned, repainted, and meticulously reconstructed. The stadium seating being repurposed for bus stops seems like an excellent idea if you ask your professional Indianapolis mover here; extending the lifespan of the seats is great for the environment and your relocation service providers are surely not the only Indianapolis locals who are quite fond of the stadium seating look. Several of the new PUPstops, as they have been named, have already been installed, so keep an eye out for more of the restored stadium seats as they’ll be popping up at IndyGo stops all over!

After nearly ten years have gone by, the tragic events which occurred in New York on September 11th 2001 can still be extremely difficult to think or talk about in America. The ten year anniversary is Sunday, and people all over the world are sure to have the victims of 9/11 in their thoughts and prayers. Your Indianapolis relocation specialists know that moving on from such a tragedy can take much longer than ten years, and our hearts go out to all who were affected by the attacks that happened on that day.

School is just right around the corner, which means college students will soon be moving into their dorms in preparation for another semester of classes. College students who travel light when relocating back to campus stand to save quite a bit on moving costs. What better way to compliment an affordable move back to school than by saving money on dorm room furnishings and necessities? Just because you have travelled light while moving back to school doesn’t mean that your new home away from home has to be a barren sight. You may be surprised what you can achieve in the dorm décor department for less than $100. Your dorm room needs a few essentials so that you can function and feel at home; your home-sweet-dorm is a great spot for all the studying you’ll soon be doing. For the much needed full nights’ sleep, don your bed with a cool and comfy bed set; Bed Bath and Beyond is one of many go-to sources for bedding, towels, shower caddies, and other dormitory must-haves. Target and Walmart are also viable sources for dorm essentials. Shop around and get what you need for as little green as possible; this semester, you’ll save so much money that you may never have to resort to Ramen Noodles for dinner!

Not too far from your movers in Indianapolis is the growing town of Lafayette, Indiana –specifically West Lafayette. In the last eleven years, W. Lafayette’s population has increased roughly thirty percent, and continues to do so. There are many reasons why West Lafayette is so attractive to people moving in Indiana. One major reason for the growing popularity is related to Purdue University. The school’s main campus is located in W. Lafayette, as well as the Purdue Research Park which harbors over 150 company headquarters. Your Indianapolis movers are happy to relocate you to your new home in West Lafayette if your new home happens to be there. If so, you’ve made a great choice!

An explosion sparked by defective underground power lines caused fire to rise from manhole covers today, Wednesday, in Indianapolis. Several local businesses reported both flames as well as smoke pluming from manhole covers today. Indianapolis Power and Light shut off power for about an hour to do repairs to the damaged power lines which caused the explosion earlier this morning. This isn’t the first time this has happened, in January explosions catapulted several manhole covers in the air in Indianapolis. IPL employees are likely catching flak due to the hazardous malfunctioning of the power lines! Murphy’s Law has taught us a thing or two about worst-case scenarios; if accidents can happen, accidents will happen! Your movers here have had accidents before –which is why we insist on being licensed AND insured– never resulting in an explosion thankfully! Though no company can completely prevent accidents altogether, preventative actions should always be taken to keep accidents as minimal as possible. How do your Indianapolis movers prevent disasters? By hiring only qualified employees to move your household furniture and property. Furthermore; our movers are thoroughly trained in a professional manner to ensure a smooth move on every job!
