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 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 was experiencing a change to a larger
carrier would be necessary.
In 1970 Atlantic 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
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.
Atlas Van Lines became the carrier of choice for several reasons. First and
foremost was agent ownership. Atlantic is one of approximately 64 agents which
own the van line. Additionally, Atlantic’s Ted Alger occupies a seat on the
board of directors. Finally, Atlas' product mix most closely compliments the
traditional product mix of Atlantic, with nearly 65% of household goods relocation
sales coming from the corporate account market segment. Atlantic is
extremely proud to be a part of the Atlas Van Lines family.
