Pete Ruffing: The Trusted Mover Behind Jacksonville’s Top Real Estate Transitions
Meet Pete Ruffing: The Trusted Mover Behind Jacksonville’s Top Real Estate Transitions | Real Estate Excellence Podcast
When you’re buying or selling a home, the move is often the most stressful part — and that’s where Pete Ruffing comes in. I’m Tracy Hayes, and in Episode 6 of the Real Estate Excellence Podcast, I had the pleasure of sitting down with Pete, owner and partner of the Two Men and a Truck franchises in Jacksonville and St. Augustine, Florida. Pete and his wife Brenda, along with their daughter Riley and son-in-law Jeremy, have built one of the most respected moving operations in Northeast Florida.
Whether you're a buyer or a seller, the Ruffing family’s team brings unmatched professionalism, customer care, and local knowledge to every move.
Why Pete Ruffing Stands Out in Jacksonville and St. Augustine
Pete brings over two decades of experience in real estate, homebuilding, and customer service — but what really makes him different is his deep understanding of the full buying/selling process. He’s been in the trenches of real estate and now leads one of the most efficient and customer-focused moving companies in Jacksonville FL and beyond.
What sets his team apart?
-
All movers are employees (not contractors), fully vetted, background-checked, and trained.
-
Local roots and national backing: Two Men and a Truck is a national name, but Pete’s team brings local heart.
-
Decades of operational experience in logistics, sales, and client relationships.
Moving Services That Truly Support Buyers
Buying a home is emotional — Pete gets that. His team’s approach is all about reducing stress for new homeowners by ensuring:
-
On-time arrival and careful handling of personal belongings
-
Seamless coordination with closings and move-in schedules
-
Friendly, professional movers who treat each customer with respect
They don’t just move boxes — they move families into new chapters.
Sellers Trust Them to Get the Job Done Right
If you’re selling your home in Jacksonville, St. Augustine, or anywhere in between, you need movers who understand timing and liability. Pete’s crew stands out with:
-
Licensed, bonded, and insured services
-
Efficient packing and loading to meet tight closing timelines
-
Transparency and communication that sellers rely on
Plus, with 25 years in the Northeast Florida market, their local reputation is unmatched.
Tracy’s Take: Why I Recommend Pete
What impressed me most about Pete wasn’t just his operational expertise — it’s his heart. He genuinely cares about his customers and community. From the Movers for Moms campaign to helping veterans and local shelters, Pete and Brenda walk the talk when it comes to giving back.
He’s also built a business where family works together in harmony, each with their own roles. That’s rare — and it speaks volumes about their leadership.
