Interstate Moving
Need to move out of or into California? Look no further!
In 2008, Cummings Moving Co. partnered with Wheaton World Wide to add to our portfolio of services we offer to our customers. As an agent for Wheaton, we can move you anywhere in the United States. We can also coordinate your move into the Golden State. Wheaton World Wide’s agent network is comprised of 350 agents nationwide to assist with residential, commercial and specialty moves.
Why did we choose Wheaton?
In 1945, Earnest S. Wheaton founded Wheaton, originally named Clipper VanLines. From their very first move, which began in Canton, Ohio, and ended in Constantine, Michigan, they were committed to quality.
They started out with an original authority for 22 states in the eastern United States. As they began their expansion to offer moving services to the rest of the country in the 1950s, they changed their name to Wheaton Van Lines, Inc. In 1973, Wheaton became the first carrier in the nation to hold complete 50-state authority from the Interstate Commerce Commission and in the 1980’s they became Wheaton World Wide.
The Wheaton standard for quality is higher than most, but that’s what it takes to provide our customers with a stress-free move. Not surprisingly, our customer satisfaction ratings are high, and every day we’re innovating new ways to ensure the quality of our services.
Constant improvement driven by data
In order to make sure we’re keeping the quality of our services high, we track and measure as much data as possible. This also helps us keep costs down, by gathering data and learning how to be more efficient.
How it works
While it’s true that Wheaton agents own and operate their own moving companies that perform a variety of services,including local and intrastate moves, we partner with Wheaton for interstate moves. This allows us to meet the legal requirements necessary for performing interstate moves, and it also allows Wheaton to extend our reach into those markets that need us.
Wheaton / Cummings relationship
Hundreds of independently owned and operated moving companies, including Cummings Moving Co., across the country work directly with Wheaton, and these companies are Wheaton agents. We are what makes Wheaton a full-service moving company.
How does it happen?
First, we, as all agents, were vetted extensively by Wheaton to ensure we meet or exceed Wheaton’s stringent standards. We signed an agency agreement.
After we signed, we became legally allowed to perform interstate moves, as required under federal law. We provide moving services to our customers, from packing and storage to transportation. We often haul shipment ourselves to neighboring states and utilize the Wheaton network for the rest of the US.
