Moishe's to Become First Green Moving Company on East Coast
April 22, 2008-New York, NY-- Today Moishe's Moving and Storage Systems announced that they are going green. The eco-friendly move makes Moishe's the first all-green moving company on the East Coast. The company believes this year's Earth Day is a fitting kick-off to a year-long transition into total green operations. Over the next year Moishe's will institute changes that will significantly cut back on waste and conserve massive amounts of energy. The company will environmentally optimize their corporate offices, institute new moving supplies rental programs, and introduce green-incentives for their employees before the end of 2008. The entire fleet of Moishe's moving trucks will be converted to bio-fuel by the end of 2009. "We really feel that going green plays a massive part in being a socially responsible company," said Moishe's CEO Gene Lemay. "We've re-engineered our entire corporate pyramid, from our top executive's offices, right down to the fuel our moving trucks run on. We're proud to be the first moving company on the East Coast to make the move to green." Moishe's move to green includes several company-wide changes.
The transition includes:
- A Community Box Exchange Program allowing customers to exchange re-usable boxes via a website operated by Moishe's, which will be launched in the early summer 2008.
- A paperless billing system
- Rental of light-weight and re-usable biodegradable boxes
- Replacing packing peanuts with biodegradable pellets made from recycled diapers
- Financial incentives for employees to live more environmentally responsible
- Transitioning to trucks powered by bio-fuel instead of gasoline

Movers are the backbone of any moving company. The movers are the faces of their respective moving companies - the ones who meet and interact with clients. They have to be fully-trained, efficient, personable and professional. Movers must understand the ins-and-outs of packing and moving; they must be able to pack anything and everything, from bulky furniture to delicate items. It is also essential for movers to coordinate with one another, working together to keep a client's move organized and on schedule.
