Anthem is a master-planned community 30 miles north of central Phoenix, just off I-17. Two halves: Anthem Country Club (large homes around two golf courses) and Anthem Parkside (smaller family homes plus an active-adult section called Anthem Village). About 24,000 residents total.

We do 3-4 Anthem jobs a month. Most are families relocating from elsewhere in the Valley to a larger home in Anthem Country Club, or active-adult downsizing into Anthem Village. Distance is the main factor — Anthem is at the edge of our standard local range, about 30 miles from our warehouse, 40-50 minutes drive.

For long-distance moves landing in Anthem (we get a steady trickle from California and the Pacific Northwest), it's identical to landing in any other Phoenix suburb — the distance from 27th Ave doesn't change the per-job long-distance pricing.

Marcus Delgado Founder & Owner

Meet the owner

"We started with one truck off 27th Ave. 14 years later we're still on 27th Ave."

I'm Marcus Delgado. I grew up in Mesa — third-generation Arizonan on my mom's side, my abuelo came up from Sonora in the 60s. Before Desert Ridge I spent eight years dispatching for a Mayflower agent in the West Valley.

In 2012 I bought a used Freightliner with my two brothers and rented bay 4 of a warehouse off North 27th Ave. We did three jobs that first week. We're still in the same building, just with five more trucks and fourteen people on payroll.

What's stayed the same: I personally pick up the phone after 6pm. We don't pay our dispatchers commission so they have no reason to oversell you a packing kit you don't need. And every crew has at least one bilingual mover — we serve Phoenix the way Phoenix actually is.

What Phoenix is saying

"Long-distance to Denver. Loaded Friday in Chandler, delivered Tuesday morning in Lakewood. One small dent on a dresser, they Venmo'd me $75 same day to settle it. Honest about what insurance does and doesn't cover."

"Hired Desert Ridge for a 2-bedroom move from Tempe to North Scottsdale. Three guys, six hours, $890 flat. Foreman Hector walked me through the bill before they unloaded — no surprises. They wrapped my mom's piano without me asking."

"Used them twice. Second time was Mesa to Gilbert in July, 109°F outside. Crew kept the truck doors closed except for loading and ran a small fan inside — none of my records warped. Hablan español lo cual ayudó con mis padres."

"Downsizing after 32 years in the same house. The guys were patient with my labeling system and didn't push to upsell packing materials I didn't need. Estimate was within $40 of the final bill."

Frequently asked questions

How far in advance should I book my Phoenix move?

For local moves we usually have spots within 7–10 days. May through August is our heaviest season — book 3 weeks out if you want a Saturday. For long-distance we need 2–3 weeks lead time to schedule the route.

Do you charge by the hour or flat rate?

Local moves under 50 miles are hourly — flat hourly with no fuel surcharge. Long-distance is a flat per-job quote based on weight and distance. We do an in-home or video walkthrough before quoting anything over a studio.

What happens if my stuff gets damaged?

Standard liability is 60¢ per pound per item — that's federal minimum, included free. Most customers add Full Value Protection at $9 per $1,000 of declared value. We document any damage on the spot and settle within 7 days.

Are you licensed and insured?

Yes — USDOT 1734502, MC-823491, Arizona Weights & Measures #WM-AZ-09827. We carry $1M goods-in-transit coverage and full Workers' Comp under Arizona ICA. Certificate of Insurance available on request.

Do you move pianos and pool tables?

Yes. We move uprights and baby grands regularly — 4-man crew, blankets, dollies, board for stairs. Slate pool tables we disassemble, transport, and re-level on-site (we charge a flat $450 in metro Phoenix).

Phoenix heat — does it damage my stuff in the truck?

Trucks hit 130°+ inside in summer. We load heat-sensitive items last (electronics, vinyl, candles, wine, medications) so they're in the truck the shortest time, and our long-distance loads run with insulated blankets over those crates. Full breakdown on our packing services page.
