Richmond Franchise Owner Hopes to “Clean Up” Your Moving Day

Richmond, Virginia (September 3, 2008) - Dave Tindall wants you to have a “clean” moving day, and he has the means to make it happen! Mr. Tindall is the new co-owner of the Richmond franchise of moving and storage firm Two Guys and a Truck®. He’s also the owner of Maid to Perfection® of Richmond, a residential and commercial cleaning service.

The franchise is the latest sold by the Sterling, Virginia-based Two Guys and a Truck, and is co-owned by Mr. Tindall and longtime Two Guys and a Truck employee Kim Wyatt. The Richmond operation was previously company owned. Two Guys and a Truck is currently selling additional franchises across Virginia, Maryland, and the District of Columbia.

“We’re very excited by Dave and Kim purchasing our Richmond franchise,” said Two Guys and a Truck CEO David Underwood. “Their partnership is a perfect mix of business acumen and moving experience.”

Mr. Tindall, who lives in Short Pump, has owned the local Maid to Perfection franchise for more than four years. Previous to becoming an entrepreneur, he worked as a comptroller for Smurfit Stone and a manager at MeadeWestvaco. He holds an MBA from UNC Chapel Hill and an undergraduate degree in chemical engineering from Syracuse University. He’s a longtime member of both the Innsbrook Rotary Club and St. Michael’s Catholic Church.

“I’m looking forward to the synergy created by not only owning a moving business, but also a cleaning service,” said Mr. Tindall. “While I want to grow these two businesses separately, I realize that there are a number of ways they can work together and benefit from each other.”

Mr. Tindall’s partner, Kim Wyatt, is a veteran of the industry. He has been in the moving and storage business for 25 years, working for Two Guys and a Truck for the last six years. Most recently, he managed the Richmond office.

Two Guys, a Truck, and a Bunch of Cookies

Two Guys, a Truck, and a Bunch of Cookies

(Sterling, VA) – Moving can be stressful no matter how much professional help you have, but there are few “stress busters” better than a cookie. Northern Virginia-based moving and storage company Two Guys and a Truck® is trying to help its clients ease the stress of relocating, while at the same time helping a local Girl Scout troop and our military men and women overseas.

Two Guys and a Truck is teaming with Ashburn’s Girl Scout Teen Troop 4793 to assist with the annual Girl Scout Council of the Nation’s Capital Cookie Sale. Every customer who books and moves with Two Guys and a Truck through the Sterling or Prince William County offices between mid-February and the end of March, 2008, will not only receive professional, courteous, and on-time moving … they’ll also receive a box of Girl Scout Cookies!

“I’m always happy to support the Girl Scouts, and we’re thrilled to be able to send a little taste of home to our military men and women overseas.” said David Underwood, CEO of Two Guys and a Truck. “It’s also great for our customers because those cookies are delicious!”

Two Guys and a Truck is also supporting Troop 4793′s Gift of Caring community service project. The project solicits donations to send cookies to members of the United States Armed Forces who are serving overseas. For every box of cookies given to Two Guys and a Truck customers, another will be purchased to be sent to military men and women serving abroad.

The idea for the offer came when Underwood’s stepdaughter, Olivia, approached him about finding a new marketing strategy for the troop’s annual cookie sale cookies. The company’s Sterling office services customers in Alexandria and Arlington, and in the counties of Loudoun, Fauquier, and Fairfax. The Prince William office services the county of Prince William. The cookie giveaway will continue while supplies last.

For information on where to purchase cookies from Troop 4793, or on how to contribute to the Gift of Caring project, please call (703) 406-9605. For more information on the Two Guys and a Truck cookie offer, please visit www.2gt.com.
