ABOUT ATLANTIC RELOCATION SYSTEMS
Our Company History
Atlantic Moving
& Storage Co., Inc. was launched into business in Atlanta,
GA in 1966 by Ted Alger, an immigrant from Greece. Originally
operating out of a 700 sq. ft. warehouse/office, Atlantic Relocation Systems
officially began as an agent for Wheaton Van Lines. Within
four short years the company had grown to become the largest
Wheaton agent and quickly realized that to continue to support
the phenomenal growth that Atlantic Relocation Systems was experiencing a change
to a larger carrier would be necessary.
In 1970 Atlantic Relocation Systems became an agent for NorthAmerican Van Lines
and by the mid 1980's the company had expanded coast to coast
and had risen to become the largest agent group
for NorthAmerican. During the 90's Atlantic Relocation Systems continued to grow,
eventually moving the company affiliation from NorthAmerican
over to Atlas Van Lines in 1997. This conversion became known
as the largest van line agent conversion in history.
Our Relationship With Atlas Vanlines
Atlas
Van Lines became the carrier of choice for many reasons.
First and foremost is "agent ownership". Atlantic Relocation Systems is one of
many agents with an ownership stake in Atlas Van Lines. In addition to that, Atlantic Relocation Systems' founder, Ted Alger, is an active member of Atlas' board of
directors. One of the largest factors in choosing an affiliation with Atlas is that Atlas' product mix most closely compliments
the traditional product mix of Atlantic Relocation Systems, with nearly 65% of
household goods moving revenue coming from the corporate
account market segment. Atlantic Relocation Systems is extremely proud to be
a part of the Atlas Van Lines family.
