Continental Seattle Movers Goes Mobile!

When your 85 year old dad goes to the web rather than the yellow pages to find a company, you know that there has been a wholesale shift in how people are buying.
Welcome Continental's new mobile friendly website. With the dramatic growth in useage in ipads, smart phones, and tablets it only made sense for Continental Van Lines http://www.continentalvan.com/  to provide a mobile solution for consumers looking for a Seattle mover.  http://m.continentalvan.com/ is just that solution.
With the assitance of Locus Interactive http://www.locusinteractive.net/ and Formic Media http://www.formicmedia.com/ , Continental was able to develop a user friendly interface for a myriad of mobile platforms.
" The ability to provide one-click calling and a user friendly mobile estimate request form were critical components to the project. Yellow pages have simply moved to smart phone platforms. Making it easy to use us, was a simple decision," states Brad Fransen, Director of Sales and Marketing.

Seattle Movers help support local food banks

Far too many people go hungry in Washington State and Alaska. Forty percent of those in need are children.
As you are aware, many people discard a good deal of food when they move. Continental Van Lines is proud to participate in a solution to meet the needs of Seattle's hungry.  As a leading Seattle Moving Company, Continental Van Lines has teamed up with local food banks to participate in the Move for Hunger program.
"We'll be participating in all of our offices," states Brad Fransen, Director of Sales. "Our goal is to have a direct impact upon local food bank supplies."
How to participate?  When you choose Continental as your Seattle mover, or as your Anchorage moving company, simply package your non-perishable goods in the Move for Hunger boxes and they will deliver your food items directly to local food banks.

Totes Offer Alternative to Traditional Boxes with Seattle Local Movers

As we look back on 2011, one of the significant advancements Continental has made is the addition of a plastic tote local moving solution.  These "earth-friendly" totes offer many benefits to the use of cardboard cartons:

• Reusable and earth friendly
• Solid and safe. Zip ties provide complete security
• No need to mix rooms to fill cartons
• No additional need to fill cartons with paper filler to provide stability
• Easy to pack
• Stackable
• And currently, they are free to our customers!
