Since 1957 PCS Moving has been providing residential and commercial customers with a superior customer experience in moving. As one of the largest relocation companies worldwide, PCS Moving has a vast network of vetted service providers with the capability to offer customized transportation solutions and comprehensive logistics services to fit any need and budget. We are the only relocation companies to provide each customer with a dedicated Moving Concierge, who acts a single, go-to resource.
PCS Moving Company History
PCS Moving has been proficiently executing domestic, national, and international relocations for both residential and commercial customers. George T. Howard founded our predecessor company in 1933, and the company incorporated in 1948 as Howard Van Lines. Then in 1957, our founders, Ed Schumacher, Bill Moen, Max Olsan, and Dan Heydlauff acquired Howard Van Lines and renamed the business PCS Moving.
PCS Moving continued to expand its business. As a result, Wayne Goettsche, Chairman of the Board of WKG Corporation, purchased PCS Moving and PCS International in 1981. Several years later, WKG sold several divisions to Contrans Corporation based in Hamilton, Ontario; however, WKG retained PCS International. In 1998, agents of PCS Moving acquired the necessary stock to assume ownership, and soon thereafter, Allied Worldwide purchased PCS Moving in 2000.
PCS Moving Superior Customer Service
One of the projects PCS Moving is most proud of occurred in the 1960s when NASA selected us as their designated moving company to transport highly sensitive equipment. We are also proud of our JD Powers ranking as the best long-distance moving company with a score of 774 and particularly high scores in loading service, packing service, and optional coverage in 2007. We continue to advance within the relocation industry with an unparalleled international network of service providers.
PCS Moving Innovation
PCS Moving continues lead innovation in their industry segment. The introduction of providing all clients with a personal Moving Concierge located within their own community represents the latest innovation. This dedicated go-to resource is available to assist with planning customized relocations to fit any individual need and budget. Your Moving Concierge elevates the customer’s priorities above all others and can make recommendations on streamlining a move, saving on expenses, and any other issue that may arise in relation to the relocation. This innovative service is provided as a complimentary option to each and every customer.
Our Moving Concierges have on average over 15 years of industry experience, and their sole focus is helping the customer move. Not only do they have the experience, they also have access to a vast network of service providers. PCS Moving recognizes that one-size does not fit everyone’s personal situation, needs, or desires. Our Moving Concierges are motivated to arrange and orchestrate the best providers for each individual circumstance. No longer does a customer have to search for a moving company or group of companies with various resources to accomplish a relocation. One call to a dedicated Moving Concierge will connect a client to the resources necessary to perform any type of move.
PCS Moving is the only company that offers an advocate to the customer, one single resource to help ensure that a move goes smoothly, within budget, and that unforeseen or unexpected events are addressed as they occur.
