- What I think should be changed (include citations):
Graebel Companies, Inc., with global headquarters in Aurora, Colorado, is a privately held company that provides corporate relocation services, offering end-to-end assignment management solutions, expert policy consulting, and administration of global mobility programs. [1]
History
editFounded by David Graebel in 1950, the company started with one moving truck in Wausau, Wisconsin. [2] Helping both consumers and businesses relocate, Dave did a bit of everything - scheduling, driving, delivering, loading and unloading - as he quickly branched out to offering services across the state of Wisconsin. [3]
As years passed, the company started serving customers across the U.S. and became an independent van line company in the early 1980s. Around the same time, the company relocated its headquarters to Colorado. [3]
By 1996, the company launched its relocation and assignment management services, and in 2008 it opened its first international satellite office in Prague. [3]
In 2015, Graebel Companies, Inc., divested Graebel Van Lines to focus exclusively on workforce and commercial moving. [4] Graebel Van Lines operated independently before shutting down in 2017. [5] Category:Moving companies Category:Moving and relocation

edit- Why it should be changed:
In full transparency, I am employed by Graebel but have done my best to write this according to the guidelines and including citations for all the suggested information/edits listed above. This was created in my user sandbox while trying to ensure correct formatting and procedure.
There is considerable confusion between Graebel Van Lines (no longer in business) and the present-day Graebel Companies, Inc. - otherwise referred to as Graebel Relocation with this article redirect. While Graebel Companies, Inc. does still have a presence in Alpharetta, Georgia - where the redirect goes to - it is not substantial. I have provided basic company history and information for consideration to be added to the article as a replacement for the redirect, in order to clarify the company and its services, and outline how the company came to be where it is today.
