Kelly Brothers House Movers

who we are 

Howard "King" Kelly has owned and operated the business for over 40 years. Like his grandfather and father before him, he has mastered the craft of house moving. He has since passed along his skills to his three sons, John, Mark and Jim, who have worked alongside him for the past 20 years. Together they have taken the business to a new level of success by incorporating modern day tools and techniques along with the vast experience of their past. Their combined expertise ensures the success of any project whether big or small.

Setting the Standard

Kelly Brothers raised the bar with the development of the pneumatic tire dollies in the late 1940's. We were the first in California to perfect this method. Today we use a more advanced hydraulic jacking system, and with modern day tools at our disposal, we have set the standard of excellence that so many others in the industry strive to reach. Kelly Brothers has taken part in some extraordinary projects over the years; from the relocation of a 400 ton railroad building in Watsonville, to the many historical houses that we moved to San Jose History Park. We are ready to tackle any project with the same level of expertise and care that we have demonstrated over the past 100 years.

Time has seen the passing of the torch three generations strong.
