Avail

New Energy, New Results

At Avail Move Management,^® “new” is the operative word. New value additions and new clients. New opportunities with Atlas sister companies. A newly freshened brand message. It all adds up to new results.

We Listen.

Two words may be the simplest way to describe the essence of Avail's value proposition: We listen.

Two Join Atlas Subsidiaries

Avail Resource Management and Cornerstone Relocation Group are proud to announce that Mary Beth Johnson and Mark Rabe have earned new roles in their respective companies.

Gaining Momentum

With strategic direction flowing from Vision 2018, Avail Move Management prepares for a bigger and more dynamic role in the moving industry.

Lifting Scores for Military Customers

In 2009, Uncle Sam introduced a new method for allocating military moves. Referred to as DP3, it puts a new emphasis on service. Avail is answering this new emphasis to create more opportunities for Atlas agents.

The word that best describes it may simply be “Wow.”

With an AtlasNet system as its engine, Order Management is the single most powerful information tool a move management professional can have.

What if you could turn 60 minutes into $60,000?
