Branch Locations & Phone Numbers   Company History   Company Profile Any tips on packing? It's all a matter of time and materials. First of all allow yourself enough time. Plan on packing 2-3 cartons per evening. It takes 20-30 minutes per box for a nonprofessional to pack. If you pack 40-50 boxes that will add up to 25 hours of packing! This formula is one you should keep in mind when considering whether or not to have your movers do the packing for you.

Company History Beltway Movers actually began in the early 1940's under the leadership of Johnny Worden. Johnny used to drive a taxi in Washington, DC, and often received requests from customers to take their large trunks to Union Station. That's when Johnny hit upon the idea of starting his own moving business, under the name of Anacostia Movers. In 1956 George Secrist went to work part time for Anacostia Movers and with the help of Johnny in 1961, George started his own moving business under the name of Southeast Movers and Oxon Hill Movers. During a dinner conversation in 1966 between Johnny Worden, George Secrist, and George's brother Bernie, it was jokingly suggested that George might be interested in buying Anacostia Movers. The conversation soon turned to serious negotiations and a temporary contract was written on a place mat. In 1969, the companies formally merged under the name of Beltway Movers, and were owned by the Secrist brothers, George, Bernie, and Gary. In 1982 BMA became agents for Atlas Van Lines in order to serve its customers who were leaving the Metropolitan Washington DC area. This association with Atlas continued until 1994, when BMA terminated the arrangement in order to concentrate on service to its local customers. Beltway now provides long distance service under its subsidiary - CHOICE. In 1988, Doug Shelton and Bob Benner became part owners of Beltway Movers. Both men had started working for Beltway in the early 1970's as movers, and progressed up the ranks, to their current positions as President and Vice President, respectively. George Secrist continued as part owner and Chairman of the Board until 1996, when Doug Shelton and Bob Benner assumed full ownership.
