4. WHY USE COLLINS BROTHERS WORLDWIDE?
Across industry barriers, the company’s targeted clientele are decision-makers
who have one or more of the following in common:
Projects with many vendors, generally complex facilities, with orders placed for a wide variety
of interior products, including wall coverings, carpet material, furniture, fixtures, signage, and
operating equipment.
The need to coordinate and manage project supply chain vendors who may have long lead
times for production (i.e. custom manufactured merchandise).
Project scheduling that is construction, production, or marketing dependent and therefore
subject to unpredictable change.
Decision-makers whose supply chain may require transition between multiple modes of
transportation, including ocean freight to surface transshipment, air freight, warehouse
staging, and specialized final mile deliveries.
Responsibility to provide a fully installed product, ready to place into service at the earliest
possible scheduled date.
Continuous involvement with managing the development, construction, renovation,
furnishing, or equipping of facilities.

6. WAREHOUSING & DELIVERY PROGRAM
As a large national account and commercial moving corporation, Collins Brothers
carries out continuous everyday business with moving and storage companies
throughout North America. Due to the large volume of outbound and inbound
van line work handled by our parent company, reciprocal business relationships
have been developed over the years with the fellow Atlas Van Line agents who can
perform dependably and professionally.
In areas without strong commercial
agents in our own system, Collins Brothers
Worldwide has qualified and placed under
contract many companies which may operate
under a different banner for their household
moving business. These business partners
have undergone a rigorous qualification program
and they are “best in class” providers of
commercial warehousing services in their
metropolitan markets.
