The summer months for the moving and storage industry are the busiest and most time-sensitive of the year for our employees. From ensuring professionals reach their next job posting, to confirming families are settled into their new home before the kids go back to school, it truly takes a dedicated team to make each move happen during peak move season.

Thankfully, Hilldrup’s Corporate Headquarters had the pleasure of recruiting and hiring an outstanding group of Summer Office Associates to make each move a success! To thank our Summer Office Associates, Hilldrup Stafford hosted a social event at Castiglia’s Italian Restaurant in downtown Fredericksburg to celebrate them.

The social hour event was the perfect opportunity for our Summer Office Associates to continue networking with the Hilldrup team and each other, discuss future plans for work – and the summer! – and enjoy some delicious pizza and appetizers. The event took place after work hours and all Summer Office Associates and Hilldrup full-time employees who attended were encouraged to enjoy some delicious food and the amazing view of downtown Fredericksburg from The Sky Bar – Castiglia’s rooftop venue.

We’re so glad that so many of our Summer Office Associates came out to attend and are thankful to our team members who came out to share their thanks and well wishes to them. Hilldrup’s peak moving season would not have been as successful without their help and dedication to our organization and customers!

We wish all of our Summer Associates the best, as they end their assignments with us.  We hope that Hilldrup will be at the top of their list for future summer and full-time employment opportunities!
