The cost to recently collect these priceless artifacts was over $500, and not in the society’s budget for 2015. Please help us today with a donation to help offset the cost of moving our treasures to a secure location.
One of the Society’s long-term goals is to make these artifacts and our other treasures accessible to the public in a convenient location. With the continued support of our members, friends, community, and companies like Wayne Moving & Storage, the dream of a museum can one day be realized.
Here is their story:
Wayne has been operating in the Tri-State Area for over 30 years. We began as a family business which has now grown to one of the largest locally owned and managed moving and storage companies in the region. We attribute this growth to our team of experienced professionals, who when paired with the vast resources Wayne has available, sets us apart from our competition.
We regularly work with hundreds of companies in the Delaware Valley each year – from small businesses to Fortune 500 Companies. Due to our unyielding commitment to customer service and drive to offer turn-key services, much of our business is repeat business. In order to offer single-source solutions, Wayne provides the following services: Office & Industrial Relocations; Interstate and International Household Goods Relocations; Warehousing Services, including Receiving, Storage, and Delivery; Modular Furniture Installation and Modification; Hospitality FF&E Services; Laboratory, IT, and Sensitive Equipment Relocations; Library and File Room Relocations; Scholastic Relocation and Renovation Support; and Records Storage Services.
Our goal is to offer you a relocation service that is designed to be practical and efficient while ensuring your project is completed on time, per plan, and within budget. We also realize that our impact on the relocation process is not limited only to providing a trucking service, but to maintain involvement by lending assistance, advice, input, and follow-up throughout the project’s life cycle. Wayne Moving & Storage Company’s responsibility is to utilize our expertise to plan and prepare your organization for the challenges that moving from one place to another can present, ensuring you are ready for a smooth, controlled relocation.
