Four fields, a quiet inbox, then Bobby’s countersigned figure waiting before the kettle finishes whistling

Wallet untouched · broker pools untouched · the dial stays still unless you tell us to lift it

Whatever you type rolls off the brass-trim thermal beside Ellie at the front desk. Out the side door of that printout it goes — ten feet to Doug, who reads it against the I-91 wall slate (in-town Tuesday and Thursday, long-haul Friday), then to Maggie for a pad-and-anchor count off the climate bay, and finally to Bobby for the wet-ink countersign on Woodland letterhead. Nothing gets dialed. Nothing gets resold. Stop writing back and we stop writing back; the line closes politely.

The Brainard Road office is six minutes from Bushnell Park, on the I-91 spur in the South Meadows industrial district. Ellie answers the desk phone Monday through Saturday. Doug books the in-home or video walkthrough around your schedule, not ours. Bobby counter-signs every binding flat figure before the dispatch board turns.

Where the desk is, who is sitting at it

218 Brainard Road, Suite 4, Hartford, CT 06114. From downtown: I-91 south one exit to Brainard, right at the light, fourth building on the left, Suite 4 around the back. Loading dock visible from the parking lot. The climate-controlled antique-furniture warehouse is the bay behind the front office.

Hours the phone is actually staffed

Monday through Saturday, 7 a.m. through 6 p.m. November through April. Monday through Saturday, 6 a.m. through 7 p.m. May through October. Sunday by appointment only — mostly for corporate-transfer clients flying into Bradley International Sunday afternoon. Voicemail rolls to Ellie’s cell after hours; she returns the call before 8 a.m. the next morning.

Three ways to reach the Brainard Road office

The phone

Ellie picks up the office line, asks four questions (origin neighborhood, destination, move-week, what is in the largest room), and books Doug for the walkthrough either in-home or over a recorded video call. The phone number is at the top of every page on this site.

The web form

Fill in name, phone, origin neighborhood, destination, and target move-week. The form drops into Ellie’s queue at the front desk. Reply lands within two business hours during posted office hours.

Walking in

The South Meadows industrial district is open. Park in front of Suite 4, walk through the front office, and the dispatch board is on the back wall. If Bobby is on a Boston long-haul that day Joey or Sean will hand you a clipboard and answer the question.

Bradley International pickup

For Insurance City corporate transfers flying in for the binding-estimate walkthrough, Bradley International is twenty minutes north up I-91. Ellie can pre-coordinate the pickup. Doug does the walkthrough on the way back to the South Meadows yard.

License and insurance, on file at the Hartford County clerk

Connecticut DOT Household Goods Carrier registration. Our own US DOT and MC authority for interstate. $1M cargo per shipment. Federal $0.60-per-pound released-value baseline (full-value upgrade available). Workers’ comp and general liability current and renewable on the Hartford County clerk’s schedule.

Call the Brainard Road desk and Ellie will route the conversation to the right person before lunch.

Your slip goes on the Brainard board the minute Ellie pins it, and from that moment Bobby is the voice on your return call — cellar to second-floor bedroom, room by room, before a single digit is signed.

Over the phone, Bobby walks the whole inventory with you — the Steinway B in the parlor, the gun safe under the basement stair, the workshop band saw, the highboy Charles Whitcomb himself built off the dairy-barn lumber in 1947 — and prices the load against the I-91 wall slate. The binding figure is emailed back on Woodland letterhead before Doug locks the office door at 4:30 p.m. Eastern. One desk owns your move from first call through final invoice; nothing is bounced to a broker, a national overflow queue or an after-hours answering service. If a Tuesday goes by with no reply from you, the thread closes there — Ellie picks the phone back up only when you do.
