Box Bros San Diego.....

Hello Bloggers...... I had a chance to go visit our new location in Rancho Bernardo, Ca..... They service all of San Diego County..... Charley and Ryan are truly Box Brothers..... They have their hands full working together with Virtue Logistics and now doing Box Bros together.... If you haven't had the opportunity meet these guys, they know quite a bit about the freight industry.... They share a retail space with a sports memorabilia office and the photo of the wall is like a wall of fame... Tons of sports player and playboy models have signed that wall..... I went on a pick up in downtown San Diego for their first freight job.... He passed the driving test in the short bus.... We will see how he does in a real truck.....

CMSA Los Angeles Chapter Meeting 2-8-11

For those of you that don't know what the CMSA is = California Moving and Storage Association.... Box Brothers has been a member of this organization for 20 years.... What many of you don't know, is that the President of Box Brothers used to be a Chapter President.... Over the past 10 years I have been attending these meetings on my own with help from Dan Wagner or Bill Carter up in the Bay Area.... Last night I had the opportunity to go with Mark Frydman and found out just how much Mark knows about the industry..... It wasn't his knowledge on the history of the moving industry that stood out to me, it was his willingness to get a new chapter member introduced to the "old schoolers" so this young kid could feel welcomed while promoting his new moving company....
http://www.boxbros.com/furniture-moves I heard stories about Bekins in the 70's.... How they used to be all union workers..... A Union strike that made a lot of those Bekins employees go off and start the many moving companies of today that we all know... I've met Paul Bekins a son of the Bekins family... He owns Bekins North West Atlas in the Seattle area... They're a very interesting family and their name is still one of the biggest movers in the industry... The stories I heard at the meeting were just amazing.... The moving industry is made up of hard working entrepreneur's that had to build their empire off of sweat and tears....
I have a new appreciation of who Mark Frydman truly is..... His ability to talk, "as we all have heard his stories", to everybody in the room and give true advice on business and on life... I am proud to be a part of his team and know that our Company is run by a man with so much knowledge, that actually cares about the other companies and people in this industry..... We all know he gets upset from time to time but he does care about everybody that works for Box Brothers... I'm off to San Diego to attend the CMSA San Diego Chapter Meeting with our new franchisee Charlie and his brother Ryan in Ranch Bernardo, Ca....... http://www.boxbros.com/
