MGM Transport, the leading provider of warehousing, distribution and logistics for the furnishings industry, has added an overnight guarantee to its Metro Express service. The Metro Express program offers guaranteed overnight delivery from High Point to the customer's chosen location in the New York Metropolitan area, including the five boroughs and New Jersey. A guaranteed second-day delivery service is also available. MGM expects office furniture and fixtures manufacturers to take advantage of the guaranteed service in the weeks, months, and even years to come as business recovers from the attacks in Manhattan. "MGM has provided fast, efficient delivery from North Carolina to the New York Metropolitan area for many years," said Edward Massood, president and COO of MGM Transport. "Our existing infrastructure allows us to respond quickly to the companies who will be relocating and rebuilding from the stunning devastation in lower Manhattan." Companies interested in the Metro Express program should contact Paige Nelson at MGM: 800.333.6105, ext. 308. Based in High Point, N.C., MGM Transport provides the best transportation service in the furnishings industry, with 30 percent faster transit time and 75 percent fewer claims than its competitors. The company offers 24-hour access to information on shipments and contents, plus expert guidance on how to use that information to better serve customers and improve business. With a fleet of 230 tractors and 710 Great Dane trailers, the $40 million company serves two-thirds of the home furnishings retailers on the East Coast and two-thirds of home furnishings manufacturers nationwide. Customers include Thomasville Furniture, Stanley, and Bassett, Federated Department Stores, Carson Pirie Scott and Thomasville Home Furnishings of Arizona.
