Why Choose Mayflower Transit?

Mayflower Transit is a household goods transportation company based in St. Louis, Missouri. Mayflower was founded in Indianapolis, Indiana, in 1927 by Conrad M. Gentry, an Indiana grocer who frequently had to haul supplies locally in support of his business and saw the possibilities of profiting from long-distance truck hauls.


More than 70 years later, Mayflower Transit is one of the nation's largest movers of household goods and other commodities requiring specialized handling. Mayflower's growth has mirrored the growth of the country. After obtaining, in 1940, the first nationwide household goods authority certificate issued by the Interstate Commerce Commission, Mayflower introduced a succession of improvements in its equipment and service, and its market share grew steadily. By 1960, its name was the best-recognized in moving, a distinction Mayflower maintains to this day.

Following extensive regulatory changes affecting the moving industry in the early 1980s, Mayflower, like a number of other major movers, underwent ownership changes, and in March 1995, it was acquired by UniGroup, Inc., a transportation and relocation company based in suburban St. Louis, MO, where Mayflower now also maintains its headquarters. As part of UniGroup, which is owned exclusively by full-time movers, Mayflower is extending its proud history of accomplishment as an innovator and a recognized provider of superior moving services to individuals and corporate America.
