At Boulter, we don’t just move the impossible - we make it possible.
132 Years Bold
In 1892, Thomas W. Boulter founded the company to meet the local need for ice and coal delivery. Over the next century, we've grown from that initial concept, but always stayed true to our roots: providing reliable service to meet the demands and challenges of our customers.
Thomas W. Boulter (1869-1931) founds local carting/moving company with two teams of horses. Specializes in coal and ice deliveries.
William P. Boulter (1891-1978) takes over the business converting horses to one of Rochester's first moving vans.
William T. Boulter (1921-2005) acquires the business and purchases five trucks and builds a garage behind his home.
William G. Boulter (1946-2022) joins company management.
