Thousands of years ago nomads moved their settlements walking from one place to another. In these times there were still moving companies to move their belongings, but there was no need, since all their belongings loaded into the back strain. Then, once domesticated animals, transfers were made to the horse's back. When cities began to emerge for the first time the need arose to move the belongings from one house to another. Poor people had no problem carrying all their belongings because the sack and took him in her arms.

But wealthy people used to have furniture, clothes and dishes in value. When they needed to move to a new house were moving the servants. They were responsible for moving furniture and baskets full of dishes to its new destination with the help of carts and horses. The need for a moving service appeared in the nineteenth century.

What more manageable furniture such as beds, dressers, cabinets or furniture small kitchen down the street by stairs or out the window. In those days there were no pulleys, so everything is down to pulse through the window with ropes. Then the furniture was carried to the car to be transferred to their new destination. During transport the furniture is protected with the client's clothing: the blankets, sheets and clothing to avoid shock and scratches. The smaller equipment is carried in wicker baskets. To protect fragile items against breakage, baskets were filled with straw or wood shavings. With time came the wicker chests of various sizes, suitable for a specific type of equipment. We can say that from this moment comes the occupation of road furniture then becomes what is now called.
