Van Line Company
What does this mean?

Allied Van Lines

Established in 1928, Allied Van Lines has cultivated nearly a century of expertise in the moving industry, evolving from a cooperative non-profit organization on the East Coast of the United States into a global relocation powerhouse. Initially formed to optimize logistics by reducing empty return trips, Allied has transformed the moving experience for generations of customers across residential and commercial sectors alike. What distinguishes Allied Van Lines is their comprehensive approach to relocation. While many competitors offer fragmented services, Allied provides end-to-end solutions encompassing packing, transportation, storage, and unpacking—all coordinated through a dedicated moving consultant who guides clients throughout the entire process. Their specialized teams are meticulously trained to handle items ranging from everyday belongings to precious antiques and fragile valuables, ensuring each item arrives at its destination unscathed. Throughout its illustrious history, Allied has achieved numerous milestones. A pivotal moment occurred in 1968 when the company restructured as a public entity. The 1999 merger with North American Van Lines under the Allied Worldwide banner represented another watershed moment, creating what was then the world's largest relocation and logistics enterprise. This consolidation significantly expanded their operational capabilities and global footprint. Under the leadership of CEO Thomas Oberdorf, Allied Van Lines now operates as part of SIRVA, maintaining an extensive network with over 1,000 representatives across more than 130 countries. This international presence has earned Allied recognition from prestigious organizations, including Newsweek's acknowledgment as one of America's Best Customer Service Providers in 2020 and CNN's designation as one of the Top Moving Companies in California in 2024. Despite its substantial growth, Allied Van Lines remains committed to its core principle: transforming potentially stressful relocations into seamless transitions, whether the journey spans neighborhoods or continents.
