About Dolly

Dolly is the leading on-demand local moving and delivery service, built with a vision to reimagine the way local moving and delivery should work. We offer guaranteed pricing, on-demand availability, 30-minute delivery windows, GPS tracking, and real-time communication. Whether you’re moving or just need help to deliver a few items, Dolly provides a combination of convenience, reliability, and value that’s never existed in the moving and delivery space.

Working directly with consumers and as the trusted delivery partner for some of the world’s largest retail brands (The Container Store, Best Buy, Crate & Barrel, Costco, and many more), we’ve handled millions of items across the 45 markets that we currently serve, all while earning unsurpassed customer satisfaction.

The heart of our service is our network of Dolly “Helpers”—thousands of truck owners who work on their own schedules and carefully load, transport, and unload each and every item. We are very proud to be one of the few gig-economy companies that offer gig-workers a living wage (Helpers earn $40+/hour).

We are tackling a really fun problem at the cutting edge of the logistics industry. We are ambitious and humble, we are growing fast, and, above all, we are passionate about building a customer-obsessed household brand that has a real and positive impact on people’s lives. Join us!
