Four destinations account for most of what G&B hauls out of Wausau: Green Bay to the east, Milwaukee and Chicago down the US-51/I-39 corridor, and Minneapolis-St. Paul to the west. Every one of those runs stays on a single truck from your driveway to the destination.
The case for keeping it on one truck
- The figure Vernon writes down at your walkthrough is the figure on the invoice when the job’s done
- Your belongings never share trailer space with another family’s shipment
- You get a delivery date, not a delivery season
- Whoever loaded the truck in Wausau is standing in your new doorway when it’s unloaded
- If your closing dates don’t line up, a short stint in our storage unit closes the gap
No transfer point along the way
Most damage claims on long-distance moves trace back to a shipment getting shuffled between trucks somewhere on the route. G&B holds USDOT/MC authority in its own name, so the truck leaving our Wausau yard is the single vehicle carrying your furniture until the last box is off it.
From the walkthrough to your new address
- Walkthrough Vernon looks at your inventory and the route, in person or by video, and prices the job before anything’s booked.
- Loading Dale’s crew straps and blankets every piece at the Wausau pickup, working room by room the same as a local job.
- The route WI-29 runs the Green Bay leg; US-51 into I-39 handles Milwaukee and Chicago; the drive west toward the Twin Cities picks up I-94.
- Delivery The same crew that loaded the truck unloads it, sets furniture in place, and reassembles anything taken apart for transport.
Distance from Wausau, roughly
Green Bay runs about 110 miles east. Milwaukee is closer to 190 miles south. Minneapolis-St. Paul sits roughly 220 miles to the west, and Chicago adds up to somewhere around 300 miles south. These are ballpark numbers only; Vernon’s walkthrough price is the one that counts.
Winter is what actually reshuffles a long-distance calendar here — an ice storm closing a stretch of secondary road, or a lake-effect band pushing into the Fox Valley — and Dale plans around those conditions rather than reacting to them. Tell him roughly when you’d like to arrive and where you’re headed, and he’ll map out dates that account for it.
