About Us

Delivering quality professional moves since 1943

It all started with a truck…

When Arthur E. Morrissette started Interstate in 1943, he began with one truck, a single dolly, a few furniture pads and a burning dedication to quality service – which he later trademarked as Top Hat® service. He believed that treating people with respect, working at the highest standard of professionalism and providing as much value as possible was the only way to do business.

Over the past 80 years, the company he built has retained those notions of old-fashioned courtesy, respect, integrity, professionalism, value and, of course, our exclusive Top Hat® service. No matter the move or project, we come to the table with honesty, kindness and the desire to make your move as smooth, seamless, easy and efficient as possible for you or your company. 

You should be excited for your move.  It’s our job to make sure of it.

A word from our friends
Functional Analyst at an aerospace/defense contractor

“Their support to our team has been excellent, and of particular note, they have upped the ante on the level of service we have received since joining the Interstate Relocation team. All the while, they have made my job much more manageable and have succeeded in doing so at a particularly busy time for relocations and repatriations for our team. I am pleased with the level of service provided by Interstate Relocation and would not hesitate to utilize them for my own personal moving needs.”

Chris and Cecelia S.

“As a military family we have encountered nine moves within the US and overseas. After interviewing several friends who used Interstate Van Lines within the last several years, there was no doubt in our minds that this was the company we would choose to move us. […] We will highly recommend Interstate Van Lines to any family member or friend. We extend to the entire staff our gratitude and a tremendous thank you for an outstanding move/storage.”

Director of Human Resources, global innovation company

“It is important in my role in Human Resources to maintain a neutral and positive relationship with our new team members. Many times, in the past, I had to approve, negotiate or deny certain relocation expenses, which put both myself and our new employee in an awkward position.

So, when we found ourselves in a high growth phase and our need to relocate top talent became imperative, we reached out to Interstate Relocation to assist us in developing a competitive and manageable plan. This transition has taken me out of the relocation management business and has allowed me to be the supportive HR professional. […] It’s a win/win and we are happy and confident in our partnership with Interstate Relocation.”

Fred and Kay C.

“In today’s world, you don’t often find the kind of personal and efficient service that we received from every one of your employees who worked on our move. Every date, line and price quoted to us was met without exception. Your employees are to be commended for their commitment to giving the best possible service with a personal touch. They are truly the greatest asset of your company.”

Director of Human Resources, world’s largest scientific society

“During our 4+ years of partnership with Interstate Relocation Services, we have been pleased with the knowledge and care that has been demonstrated to our domestic candidates and employees alike. The staff at Interstate is responsive to our needs and efficiently administers our relocation program.”
