A Short Company History

Piedmont Moving Systems, located in the heart of Silicon Valley, has been a leading moving company for the past 30 Years.  Since 1982, Piedmont has been the San Jose movers of choice in the community. As an agent for Mayflower Transit, Piedmont is one of the most well-known and professional names in the moving and storage industry.  Furthermore, the company is family-owned and operated and has provided services ranging from household and office moving to storage, logistics operations and even international relocations. Piedmont is owned by President David Bartels and his wife and Vice President, Renee Bartels, who are both incredibly excited to have reached this business milestone.

Throughout the past 30 years, Piedmont Moving Systems has been a huge part of the community.  Not only do the employees of Piedmont provide excellent customer service, they also take part in local charities and serve as volunteers for local organizations.  Turning Wheels for Kids and the Kyle Petty Charity Ride are just two examples of local charities that the employees of Piedmont give their time to. Turning Wheels for Kids is a local Bay Area charity that provides new bicycles to underprivileged children.  Their main focus is to prevent childhood obesity and support low-income families.  Their ultimate goal is to encourage outdoor activity and promote positive, lifelong habits such as exercise.  Kyle Petty Charity Ride across America funds and raises awareness for Victory Junction Camps.  The group has seen over 7,000 riders who’ve logged more than 10.2 million motorcycle miles across the country.  The Bartels participate and donate to this group led by NASCAR driver, Kyle Petty.

Furthermore, 30 years of business has truly brought the Piedmont staff together. “Our team believes in providing the best service possible to our customers,” says David Bartels. “Whether it’s helping a family move across the country or assisting a company with its supply chain and inventory management.  Their dedication and commitment to customers throughout the past 30 years is a large part of the reason we have reached this milestone we’re all so very proud of.”

Joyce Derrick Award

Recently, David and Renee Bartels received the Mayflower Transit “Joyce Derrick Award” for their dedication and service over the last three decades.  The “Joyce Derrick Award” recognized individuals who have shown particular dedication and leadership in the moving industry.  The award is named in honor of the late Joyce Derrick, who served for 20 years as Vice President of Operations for a California Mayflower agency and was well-known for her commitment to fellow employees and van operators.

The award was given to the Bartels by Richard McClure, president of Mayflower and UniGroup, Inc.  When announcing the Bartels as recipients, McClure said, “This team has been quite successful in running their agency, serving big volume customers who have the highest requirements for on-time and damage-free service – often honored with awards, theirs in clearly a partnership of commitment to quality services, operational excellence and sound business skills that have contributed to the long-term success of their agency.”
