Press Release Body = Canton, Mass: May 4, 2007: Humboldt Storage and Moving of
Canton, Mass., greater Boston's largest United Van Lines agent, will be celebrating
"Van Operator Appreciation Week" from May 7 through the 11th. The week is set aside
annually to recognize the difference and enormous impact van operators make in
providing service to all customers that place their trust in Humboldt.

On Friday May 11, at 4:00pm, the entire management team of Humboldt Storage and
Moving will host a thank you barbeque for all van operators to show their
appreciation for their dedication to the company and customers. Activities include
The Money Mania Cash Box, a clear box where money is blown around. Van operators
will get time to grab as much money as possible. There will also be fun strength
tests for all operators to participate in.

Van operators will be treated to a variety of courtesies during the week as well.
Those include on Monday May 7, car detailing for van operators, Tuesday at 3:30pm a
pizza party held by the customer service team, Wednesday, lunch delivered to Van
Operators by management team. On Thursday, operators will be treated to a big
breakfast and then free deep-tissue massages from 2:00-6:00pm and on Friday, the
thank you barbeque.

Van operators must master a challenging role. They are essentially in business for
themselves, operating in a mobile office. Many of United Van Lines van operators
operate independently, driving across country, communicating via satellite
technology, as well as processing all the paperwork a business would require. They
are also, the face of United Van Lines and Humboldt Storage and Moving.

The approximately 5,700 van operators in the United Van Lines system represent the
"heart of United's ability to exceed its customers' expectations," said Jim
Sullivan, general manager of Humboldt Storage and Moving. "This week will further
increase awareness of the key role these individuals play in customer satisfaction
and is also intended to strengthen the relationship between Humboldt and our van
operators."
