Atlas Van Lines To Expand Accel Service Featuring The SmartVault Technology
AMEX: MVE Smart Move, Inc., a Denver, CO based logistics company, recently announced the expansion of the services the company provides to Atlas Van Lines, one of the nation's largest and most successful relocation van line groups. Smart Move makes its proprietary shipping containers, SmartVaults, available to Atlas Van Lines using Smart Move's proprietary logistics software and the strengths of its primary transportation providers to provide guaranteed time delivery for Atlas's Accel program, that features the Smart Move solution exclusively with no seasonal limitations.
Atlas recently announced that Accel, Atlas' premium service option for expedited delivery, will be offered to COD and self-directed lump sum move customers. With Accel, families are able to complete relocations faster and can settle in and feel at home in new surroundings at an earlier date. "Based on its success with our national accounts, we are pleased to now be in a position to offer the Accel suite of services to our customers outside the corporate arena," said Atlas Van Lines President and Chief Operating Officer Greg Hoover. "This opens yet another avenue of growth targeted to an important segment of our customers."
Customers have found Atlas Accel to be ideal for small to medium sized shipments. Accel is designed to offer dramatically reduced delivery times, with lower incidence of claims, and the high quality service that Atlas customers expect.
Atlas introduced Accel in January 2007. Hoover added that "the Accel Service has defined a unique niche with its combination of speed, security, and simplicity. We are confident that, as more customers experience this service option for themselves, its popularity as a complement to traditional choices will continue to grow."
Customers interested in Accel can access information, pricing, and ordering assistance through Atlas agents or online via the Atlas public web site. Visit: www.atlasworldgroup.com/accel
