Heritage 21st Century Movers Becomes Agent for Wheaton World Wide Moving
Torrance, Calif. – Heritage 21st Century Movers has joined the Wheaton World Wide Moving network of 250 agents across the country. Heritage had been a top agent for a competing van line and recently made the move to Wheaton.
Heritage 21st Century Movers operates from 28,000 square-feet of warehouse space and is managed with a customer first philosophy by a team that has years of experience in the moving and relocation services industry. Heritage 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 to corporate relocation of employees for large corporations. Heritage also does a robust commercial business relocating businesses and their office equipment as well as furniture, fixtures and equipment for a variety of industries.
Heritage owner, Carol Thomas, 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.
“I’m so glad to have joined a van line where the customer truly does come first,” Thomas said. “In the moving business, if you’re trying to grow your company, the only way to do it is to be cognizant of what customers really need – beyond the trucks and boxes. Wheaton has figured it out.”
As a family owned company for 30 years, Heritage has taken great pride in helping to improve the community in which it operates. The company is a member of the California Moving and Storage Association and participates in Move For Hunger, an organization started by a Wheaton agent that delivers non-perishable food from customers’ homes to local food banks.
“We’re absolutely thrilled to partner with an agency of Heritage’s caliber,” said Mark Kirschner, Wheaton’s CEO. “Carol Thomas runs a great business and we can already see that by looking at her book of satisfied customers. Heritage fits perfectly into the Wheaton model of providing true value to our customers – not just a transaction.”
