Karen has been serving the greater San Diego area for over 23 years.
Lindsay Curtis, a wife and mother of 3, moved to San Diego from the United Kingdom in 2008 and, by April 2013, she had moved her family 5 times in 7 years. All that wasted cardboard, not to mention the time and effort wasted on finding boxes, making the boxes up and then breaking them down again - Lindsay could not imagine anything worse for her next move. There had to be an alternative.
After much scouring and sourcing, Lindsay found a great opportunity to rent out eco-friendly, cleaned and sanitized moving boxes, which are not only made out of 100% recyclable material, but made in the USA.
And that was how A SMART MOVE was born! Owned and operated by Lindsay Curtis, A SMART MOVE fulfilled her dream of running her own business while providing an environmentally-friendly service to the community.

Hi, I'm Shena Moore. I was born in Brazil and lived in Portugal, England, New Zealand, Pennsylvania and Florida before landing in the SoCal. I happened to meet my American husband on a trip to Portugal while catching some rays at the beach. Traveling is my biggest passion, but I love coming back to my own home. For me, there is no better feeling than walking into a space that is inviting and cozy. A place that brings joy just by looking at it. Most of my work experience has been in the luxury hospitality industry and I find great fulfillment in helping others, accommodating their personal needs and committing to exceed their expectations.
