Hickman Moving & Storage Co., Inc. becomes an agent for Wheaton World Wide Moving

May 2, 2011 - PRLog -- Elba, Ala. – Hickman Moving & Storage Co., Inc. has joined the Wheaton World Wide Moving network of 250 agents across the country. Family owned and operated for more than 50 years, Hickman Moving & Storage Co. was an agent for another major national van line before it became a Wheaton partner.

Hickman Moving & Storage operates from 17,000 square-feet of military-qualified warehouse space in Elba and an additional 21,000 square feet of military-qualified warehouse space in Dothan, Ala. The company is managed with a customer first philosophy by a team that has years of experience in the moving and relocation services industry.

“Having Hickman Moving & Storage on board as a Wheaton agent continues to expand our capacity to provide incredible service to our entire customer base, from individual to corporate,” said Dave Witzerman, Wheaton’s president. “We’re thrilled about the partnership as we grow our household goods network.”

Hickman Moving & Storage Co. can be a single source for all of its customers relocation needs. The company handles all aspects of relocation from packing, loading and transportation of household goods for individual residents and their families – both interstate and locally – to corporate relocation of employees.

Owner Rob Hickman made the strategic decision to affiliate with Wheaton, a company that has no long-term debt and has been profitable nearly every year since its inception in 1945. Wheaton and its network represents the only moving company to have earned the Good Housekeeping Seal for its interstate moving services – and has done so every year since 1964.

Hickman Moving & Storage Co.’s corporate offices and main operations are located at 2450 Industrial Blvd. in Elba, Ala. and can be reached at 334-897-2224.
