Biz Bites: Moving presidents, celebrating small businesses
Presidential clientsA Sterling-based moving company is tooting its own horn after it recently helped two former presidents – and political rivals -- relocate.
JK Moving & Storage Inc. said in February that it assisted in the move of former President George and Laura Bush to their new home in Dallas.
The company also said it transferred items from the home (it didn't say which home) of former President Bill Clinton and Secretary of State Hillary Clinton into storage. Included in the items, the company said, was the former president's desk, which followed him from Little Rock, Ark., to the Oval Office.
JK Moving, the region's largest privately owned mover, has been in business for 30 years. During that time, the company has moved a slew of senators, congressman, cabinet members and several other presidential administrations without, the company said in a statement, “a political preference.”
A day for small business
