The Country Picker was founded in 1974 as an antique business that specialized in estate sales and appraisals, which eventually led to expansion into the moving and storage industry. Husband-and-wife team Phil Leblanc and Cathy Nealon purchased the company in 2007 and shortly after acquired another well-known moving company in the area.
“We anticipate a strong partnership with The Country Picker for many years to come,” said A.J. Schneider, Executive Vice President of Wheaton | Bekins. “They are a great addition to the Bekins agency family.”
