In July 2018, it was widely reported when CEO Luke Marklin gave his own car to an Alabama-based Bellhops employee who, after the employee's car had broken down, walked for several hours in the middle of the night to show up for a moving appointment on time.[1][2][3] Publicity from that event contributed to Bellhops' continued growth.[4]

Company name

edit

This is actually called Bellhop, not Bellhops. Moved it to the correct title unless someone can show otherwise. The original name used to be Campus Bellhops (with an "s") so that could be the confusion.--RTotzke (talk) 16:31, 20 March 2021 (UTC)Reply
