The Government Trusts Arpin International Movers

Arpin GSA

Federal Civilian work or “GSA” is one of the premier specialties at Arpin International Movers. Since the inception of the current government programs, the domestic and international Arpin GSA divisions have handled over fifty thousand relocations specific only to GSA clientele.
 

As one of the largest and longest-standing GSA carriers in the Champ program with a 19% market share, we have a wealth of experience dealing with many US government federal agencies. This extensive experience not only gives us a deep understanding of operations worldwide but also equips us to successfully service some of the most challenging regions of the world impacted by war or political unrest. We go places many other transportation service providers do not, and our customers can rely on our expertise and persistence. Our network and the supply chain we have built, coupled with our extensive commercial footprint, mean there is not much we don’t have experience with.

Who are some of the people the GSA move?

The General Services Administration or “GSA” is responsible for securing moving and relocation services for federal employees and agencies, ensuring efficient, cost-effective moves in compliance with federal regulations. This includes managing contracts and agreements with approved service providers to facilitate domestic and international relocations. 

  • Department of Defense Personnel
  • Law Enforcement Agencies
  • Judicial Branch Personnel
  • U.S. Department of State Employees

The GSA requires Arpin to meet rigorous standards to achieve clearance due to the high-security needs and stringent compliance involved in government relocations. Arpin must have the ability to securely handle sensitive information, transport valuable government assets, and follow federal guidelines. Arpin’s GSA Division has all the necessary security protocols and qualifications to manage the movement of government personnel and materials, which is critical for maintaining trust, security, and efficiency in the relocation process.

"Arpin International and local partners from Niger to NJ, USA were extremely professional, communicative and went above and beyond to get my HHG packed up quickly during an emergency departure and ensured my belongings were sent home to me in excellent condition. As there were delays along the route outside the control of Arpin and colleagues, Chrissy Shadwell and others communicated the issues, and sent me periodic updates where the HHGs were and made fair time estimates for delivery."

"I very much appreciated Arpin’s professionalism, work ethic, and kindness. I’m a foreign service officer with the U.S. Department of State, and it is no exaggeration when I say that Arpin’s handling of my move from Switzerland back to the United States was simply the best. From the Sinai Peninsula to Switzerland and posts in between, ranging from Mexico to Germany, the level of service Ronnie and Milena provided was the absolute best I’ve experienced in my 15+ year career with the State Department."

"I’m writing to share with you how much I appreciated your team’s professionalism, work ethic, and kindness. I’m a foreign service officer with the U.S. Department of State, and it is no exaggeration when I say that Arpin’s handling of my move from Switzerland back to the United States was simply the best. From the Sinai Peninsula to Switzerland and posts in between ranging from Mexico to Germany, the level of service Ronnie and Milena provided with the absolute best I’ve experienced in my 15+ year career with State Department. What I especially appreciated about my move this year was the consistent follow-up and updates. This meant a lot to me this year because I was distracted more than usual this year. Their proactive outreach to me (especially when I unintentionally provided information that was incomplete or not clear) ensured a smooth and flawless transition back to the United States. If there is ever anything I can do to be helpful, please do not hesitate to reach out to me. I will make a point to let my colleagues know about my stellar experience with Arpin and tell them they are in good hands if their move is assigned to Arpin."

"Thank you for checking in. The crew delivered all of the crates on Tuesday, and returned today to unwrap the larger pieces and put a few things back together from the shipment. The crew was great and so far, it seems like they did a great job. We also want to thank you for your help, professionalism, and frequent communication throughout this process. Your emails, the tracking information, and check ins were very helpful and made the stressful moving process a bit easier. Thank you!"

"Thank you for all of your help throughout this move, I appreciate your professionalism and patience. Despite some hiccups on the local ends, this has been by far the most communicative and helpful corporate support we’ve ever had for the overall move, which is good since this is by any measure our most complicated move to date. 😊"

"I want to thank you for the excellent communication over the last 6+ months. It’s been very easy to work with you. I want to let you know the crew from Armstrong Movers was top notch! They arrived right after 8am and moved all of our boxes and furniture back in without issue. They assembled the furniture that needed assembling and unboxed some items. We asked them to leave most items in boxes so we can put things away where we want them. So far, nothing has been damaged or destroyed in the move. Our crew in Vietnam did an excellent job as well! If we discover any items damaged or destroyed in the coming weeks, I will let you know. Thank you again!"

"I received the car and honestly minus a little dust of course it looks just as good as when it was picked up at my house. Really appreciate it, and I really thank you for sticking with me through all of this. You guys are absolutely awesome! You guys don't do customer service, you do customer relations – and there's a world of difference between the two. Lots of entities big and small could learn a lot from how you handle affairs. Should anything come up or you need anything from me, free to reach out and I'll gladly say hello from time to time."

"Thank you for following up on this. I have received both my auto and HHG shipments smoothly and without issue. As of yet, I haven't discovered any damage that would require filing, though if anything is discovered I'll reach out. Thank you very much for your diligence and attention throughout this process, I very much appreciate the work that you've put in to ensure this went smoothly."

“Thank you for the excellent service. My vehicle arrived in perfect condition and nothing was missing. The GPS tracker was really a wonderful tool and it was excellent. The experience with you was amazing and one of the best I’ve had. Thank you for such a great move.”
