Legal name, entity status, operating authority, fleet counts and safety rating come from the FMCSA motor carrier census and licensing files, and appear only where the identifier on the federal record matched the company record on this page. Where a row is absent for one company, this site holds no verified federal value for it.

Victory Van Corporation

Victory Van Corporation files from 110 Terminal Drive in Sterling, Virginia with 21 power units, 25 drivers and a household goods cargo entry, and common authority active under MC-128153 with household goods and property authority. The rating on file is Satisfactory, from a compliance review recorded in 2006. The company's own site dates the business to 1928, when it was founded as the Federal Storage Company, and states that it took the Victory Van name in 1945. Its site publishes a docket that differs by one digit from the federal record, a discrepancy recorded on this page rather than quietly corrected, and long-distance shipments move inside the Allied Van Lines network under that van line's separate registration.

Atlas Van Lines

Atlas Van Lines books interstate household goods shipments under its own federal registration and handles them locally through affiliated agents. The agent assigned to your origin is a separate business from the van line, so ask which company's crew is scheduled before you sign.
