Moving Company - Graebel, America's Premier Relocation Service - History

The History of Graebel, America's Premier Relocation Service

The Graebel story starts with one man, one truck and a dream—to be of unusual service and value to all he served.

With this vision, David Graebel founded a one-of-a-kind relocation company. Over the years, hard work and a commitment to excellence grew his company from a one-man mover to an award-winning, world-renowned relocation leader. An organization that is now the world’s largest privately-owned relocation company and employer.

Since 1950, Graebel has:

  • Opened 56 state-of-the-art service centers in every major U.S. market.
  • Formed a successful, fully-integrated, owned and managed
    • Van Line in the US.
    • International forwarding division.
    • Multi-carrier/agent administration group.
    • Commercial workplace services group.
    • Full-service worldwide relocation management company.
  • Created the industry’s first and exclusive worldwide, 24-hour telephone access for customers.
  • Launched Graebel University, a revolutionary institution to train and certify its workforce to perform highest quality, uniform relocation services company wide.
  • Earned quality accreditation and registration from the Fédération Internationale des Déménageurs Internationaux (FIDI) and the International Organization for Standardization (ISO).
  • Accomplished high quality ratings from our customers—98% would use us again!
  • Achieved the industry’s best safety and on-time performance records since 1992. Conducts more in/outbound tonnage from the North American continent in the elite OMNI association than any other firm assuring its customers preferred service and rates
  • Shaped advanced Web-based reporting and interactive destination tools for corporate clients

Today, Graebel is the only relocation company to own and manage its own US van line, moving and storage service centers, along with a worldwide forwarding operation and an unbiased multi-carrier administrator as well as global full-service relocation management company.

And even with all this growth and advancement, we’re just getting started!
