Lassiter, of City Transfer and Storage in High Point, was inducted into the NC Transportation Hall of Fame at their 2008 Induction and Award Ceremony held on October 7, 2008 at the High Point Country Club. Mr. Lassiter successfully led the growth of City Transportation and Storage, which was started by his father I.M. Lassiter in 1908 with a wagon and at team of mules and horses. Centered near the railroad tracks in High Point, the company hauled freight that ranged from railroad passengers’ luggage to dirt. The business continued to grow, always emphasizing customer service. The company was later modernized by exchanged the horse-drawn wagon for a truck, which arrived by rail. It was High Point’s first Carter C. Lassiter truck. Working with his father, Carter and his brother Mac Lassiter expanded the company into new directions. By the 1950s, their service went from local moving to long-distance relocations. In 1961, the company, now under Carter’s sole control, moved to its present location on Redding Drive in High Point. Services were expanded to include commercial storage, corporate relocation and crane work. Carter’s wife Doris served as corporate secretary. Their four sons began learning the business as youngsters, cleaning and sweeping warehouse floors. Carter was named Mover of the NC Movers Association in 1988 and he received the James T. Dorman Distinguished Service Award in 1997. In 1988, City Transfer & Storage became one of the agents that own Atlas Van Lines. They expanded to Winston-Salem in 1994 and to Fayetteville in 2007. Today, three of Carter’s sons comprise the executive management team and they continue to expand the family business that has been known for excellence in customer for 100 years. Carter’s four sons accepted the award on his behalf. The award was presented by Carol Stahl, Director Transportation Rates Division of the NC Utilities Commission Public Staff.

The school sets up tables on the truck and serves dinner to the students on the truck. The students got in the spirit by dressing up as Indians and having Thanksgiving dinner. Page 8 The Tar Heel Van Tip from the NC Highway Patrol: Putting your C number on the BACK of your truck is a good idea. It might save you from being stopped, by readily identifying you from behind as being a LEGAL mover. The Utilities Commission is not requiring this at this time, but it can’t hurt you and may very well help you! Make sure your number reads NCUC# C-xxxx. A mover got stopped for just having C-xxxx!
