Atlas Buys Self-Service Moving Company

Atlas World Group said it has purchased the assets of self-service moving company Smart Move Inc.

Atlas, Evansville, Ind., said it will rename the company Smart Move Transportation. Smart Move, Denver, will be folded into the Atlas Accel program, a container-based, self-pack moving service.

Atlas said the Smart Move deal will allow the company to handle more small shipments.

“Historically, the relocation industry has struggled with small shipments,” said Atlas Chairman and CEO Glen Dunkerson. “Smart Move now allows Atlas to offer a solution to transport small shipments.”
