Thank
you for considering Trans American Van Lines.
Delaying the delivery of an interstate shipment is easy with Trans
American Van Lines' Storage-in-Transit (S-I-T) service. When you request
that your shipment be placed in S-I-T, the benefits of moving with Trans American
are extended to storage.
S-I-T offers:
-- Transit storage for up to 180 days - ample time for locating or taking
possession of your new residence. Storage beyond 180 days is available
from the agent on a local (non-Trans American Van Lines) basis.
-- Household items stay in their original moving cartons. The cartons are
then placed in secure storage containers.
-- Upholstered furniture is stretch-wrapped and placed on specially designed
racks.
-- Vehicles, boats and trailers are sheltered inside the warehouse.
-- All shipments accepted into S-I-T are inspected by both the delivery
driver and storage agent to ensure every item on the Household Goods Descriptive
Inventory is fully accounted for.
Trans American Van Lines also sets minimum acceptable standards
for its agents' warehouses in the Trans American-Class Commitment guidelines.
Some examples of these standards include:
-- All household goods items are containerized.
-- Storage containers are neat, organized and in good condition.
-- There is a designated person for security and maintenance.
-- Warehouse has heat sensors or a sprinkler system.
Talk with your move coordinator about your storage needs. With a
thorough understanding of your storage requirements, the move coordinator can
assess options available and recommend the best to suit your needs.
