OUR STORY

National Award Winning Service starts with Care, Respect, Goes Beyond, and Dependable

Winter Moving & Storage, an Atlas Van Lines Agent, has been a trusted moving agency since 1979. Founded by John Winter and his father after purchasing Helmuth Moving in Bentonville, Arkansas, the company has partnered with Atlas Van Lines for over 50 years to deliver quality and professionalism nationwide.

With the growth of Northwest Arkansas, Winter Moving & Storage has expanded to meet increasing demand for office relocations, successfully serving businesses like public libraries, real estate offices, laboratories, and corporate offices. The sales team also collaborates with companies to create employee relocation policies that enhance competitiveness in the job market.

Reflecting on the company’s history, John Winter states, “A lot has changed in the last 50 plus years, and more change is ahead. Winter Moving & Storage is ready to meet those challenges while maintaining the highest standards of service.”

Our History

Winter Moving & Storage is a nineteen-time winner of Atlas’ most prestigious honor, the Milton M. Hill Quality Award. Recipients of the Milton M. Hill Quality Award must meet or exceed Atlas standards in all quality criteria, from customer satisfaction ratings and weight estimating accuracy to claims ratios, safety points and warehouse ratings. To even be considered for this award, an agent must first receive the Hauling Excellence Award (twenty-one-time winner). While Atlas recognizes outstanding achievement, this award is reserved for those select few that genuinely rank as the best of the best. Winter Moving & Storage is located at 2710 SE Otis Corley Dr., in Bentonville, Arkansas. With our state-of-the-art 50,000 square ft., climate controlled warehouse, Winter Moving & Storage is poised to meet any and every moving and/or storage need for our customers.

Family Owned and Operated Since 1979

In addition, the Winter Moving & Storage sales staff has worked in conjunction with companies of various sizes to design and implement employee relocation policies and packages that ensure a competitive advantage in today’s job market.

“A lot has changed in the last 40 plus years,” Winter comments, “and there will be more change to come in the future. Winter Moving & Storage will welcome the opportunity to meet those challenges and continue to provide our services at the highest possible standards.”
