Perkins Storage and Transfer Co. Inc. was founded in Brookings, SD in 1919 by George E. Perkins. In the early years of operation, Perkins operated over an eighteen state area which stretched from New York east and Montana on the west and the Canadian border north through Missouri in the south. George had a couple of grandsons who were interested in the moving business and were trained early on in the business. Jerry Potthast and his cousin Douglas Perkins were the grandsons who operated the business after Grandfather Georges death in the early 1960s. In August 1989, Dennis Gerjets bought the corporation from Jerry and Douglas. Douglas retired upon selling the corporation and Jerry agreed to stay on for one year to teach Dennis the moving business. After six years, Jerry decided to semi-retire also. January 1st of 1996, Jerry decided to take life at a little more leisurely pace and only works part time for Perkins at this time.

Comment : Perkins was highly recommended to me. I contacted them, they discussed how to move some fragile pieces of furniture across the country, crated them up, contacted another shipper as they did not go to northern California. Nick worked on a price quote, AJ collected the items I wanted sent and crated them and Sue was my liaison answering my questions, making suggestions and finalizing the move. They were exceptionally helpful, professional, efficient, and extremely easy to work
