Evansville, Ind. (PRWEB) November 13, 2013 -- One of the nation’s leading specialized transportation carriers, Atlas Van Lines, is recognizing seven agents as winners of the 2013 Specialized Transportation Group (STG) Quality Award. While the transportation of special items such as truckloads of new fixtures for a store remodel, traveling museum exhibits with irreplaceable items (dinosaur bones, fine art, etc.) or large trade show exhibits to be delivered and picked up within a short time span can all present challenges; these Atlas STG agents bring the constant creativity and knowledge to provide solutions for their customers’ needs. Their logistical finesse serves shippers of fine art, store fixtures, trade shows, electronics and other unique or unusual items and products.

• Earn a facility rating of 5.0;
• Have operated as an Atlas agent for a full convention year; and
• Achieve combined booker and hauler revenue of at least $1,000,000 in Specialized Transportation business.
