Glen Ellyn Storage Corp. to host breakfast for award-winning essential workers
Glen Ellyn Storage Corporation headquartered in Carol Stream will be hosting a breakfast on Tuesday, April 6, for their essential workers who received multiple awards from Mayflower Transit for work performed during the pandemic year of 2020.
The company remained open every business day of the pandemic as an essential business serving customers with moving and storage services. Their logistical division delivered medical and dental equipment, as well as, appliances. Recently, they delivered refrigeration units for storage of the vaccine.
Making deliveries to residences, senior care facilities and hospitals, the essential workers had to follow all the requested COVID protocols. Even though 2020 was challenging, the company was recognized for their outstanding performance with a total of five awards for customer service and quality.
As an agent for Mayflower Transit, Glen Ellyn received Mayflower Transit's 2021 President's Quality Award at the company's recent virtual conference held in March. The award was presented by Mayflower Transit's President and CEO Marc Rogers and truly distinguishes Glen Ellyn Storage Corporation as 2020s best of the best.
The President's Quality recipient is selected from an elite group of Mayflower Transit's top service providers. It is also based on quality service performance measured through the eyes of customers via post-move surveys. "They (Glen Ellyn) performed with professional efficiency and trusted care. At a very anxious time for us moving out of state, they were a solid TEAM who performed above and beyond performance expected," one customer mentioned.
The award was accepted by Glen Ellyn's President Larry Smith. Glen Ellyn has been a Mayflower agent and moving families, offices, and products since 1933 and couldn't be happier to receive this award.
"What an unexpected pleasure." Smith remarked. "This is a total company award and includes our salespeople, our customer service teams, as well as our operations staff. However, I would like to make a special mention to our in home service providers. Our packers, helpers and van operators have done a tremendous job this year. Especially during this pandemic. Their jobs are very difficult in the best of times, but wearing a mask, social distancing, protecting our customers and themselves has been a tremendous accomplishment.
"I'm not only proud of the Glen Ellyn men and women that do this work in people's homes, but for every mover, packer and driver in the entire system. Every agent in our system should take a deep breath of appreciation and make sure we compliment and thank this courageous group."
