Furniture World Magazine

MGM Transport Corp. a leader in LTL specialized home furnishings transportation announced that they will begin providing direct pick-up service from Indiana, Illinois and Michigan, to their current dealer base in the Northeast starting June 6th, 2006. “As a direct carrier to the key market regions, we are excited about the opportunities this will afford our customers on both ends”, stated Mike Caldiero, Vice President Sales & Marketing for MGM. “This is another example of MGM stepping up and filling a need. The benefits of a weekly-dedicated service from these locations are multi-faceted. Drastically improved transit times, decreased handling (therefore less possibility of damage) and not to mention the inherent cost efficiencies that can be extracted from this streamlined process, make this a triple win for our customers and MGM. Currently we are witnessing such a dramatic shift in our industry and MGM has taken pride in their ability to react faster than ever, in providing services as the needs for them develop. That is why this is the second major announcement in the last 2 months. Our commitment is to continually provide “Innovative Transportation Solutions”, stated Caldiero.
