Founded in 1944, Valley Transportation Group began it's existence as the Scottsdale Transfer & Truck Company, providing household goods moving services to the city of Scottsdale, Arizona.
In 1956 the name was changed to Valley Transportation & Warehouse - and so began the name synonymous with today's global leader in relocation, high-value and sensitive products transportation, distribution and logistics services.
In 1961 Valley Transportation & Warehouse ended its status as an independent carrier and joined the North American Van Lines family. In doing so Valley began to also offer transportation of high-value and sensitive products, trade show exhibit materials, and corporate facility relocation services.
In 1965 Valley Transportation &
Warehouse built their first new corporate
facility in nearby Phoenix, Arizona, and began to service the entire valley,
effectively covering all of Maricopa county in central Arizona. Shortly
following, in 1971 Valley Transportation & Warehouse expanded into Tucson,
Arizona, covering the southern part of the state.
In 1980 Valley Transportation & Warehouse was sold by its founder Thomas Moffit to then partners Michael Logan and Michael Ruggieri. Following the purchase of the Phoenix and Tucson, Arizona agencies, in 1984 Valley expanded into Reno, Nevada with the purchase of another North American agent. Again in 1985, Valley expanded into Albuquerque and Santa Fe, New Mexico with yet another North American agency acquisition. In 1986 Valley began construction on its second warehouse and new corporate facility.
Combining its specialized fleet of vans with air freight and ocean shipping, in 1990 Valley Transportation & Warehouse began its own air, ground and ocean freight division, Valley Air Freight. Continuing its expansion into more profitable areas of the transportation industry, in 1995 Valley opened its logistics division, Logistics Management Incorporated, which provides creative logistics and outsourcing solutions that are tailor fit to meet the unique needs of its customers. And in 1998, the network of companies now known as the Valley Transportation Group, broke ground on its third warehouse location and current corporate headquarters in Phoenix, Arizona.
The current managing partners, Michael Logan,
President, and Richard Logan II,
Executive Vice President, look to the future of Valley Transportation Group with
great excitement and anticipation. For over 57 years, Valley
