1929 The Great Depression occurred and a need arose for a moving company to help consolidate families and friends save what little money they had left. Crosstown Transfer and Storage began and charged $0.25 a room. Some items went to storage and were never retrieved. Those families who were evicted saw the Sheriff set their hard earned belongings on the street. Crosstown would immediately go to assist the family and put their belongings into its warehouse at 417 South Main St, Memphis, TN. One such family was in the middle of cooking and many years later the evidence of a family dinner stood still in time within the walls of Crosstown’s storage.
Crosstown was trusted to move families’ belongings with care and respect. As the economy improved, more cash was kept at home in mattresses and butcher paper. However, safes were now found in homes and businesses. The safes got bigger and heavier which required a trusted mover.
Crosstown Transfer and Storage expanded to include Normal Heavy Hauling along with Patterson Warehouses, after which the family name of Acuff was given to Acuff Crane and Rigging and all companies went under the one name.
1991 Acuff Crane and Rigging and its entities were sold by a majority family member to a local crane business. Susan Acuff saw the trusted name being taken off the Acuff equipment and the loyal employees being replaced.
