McCollister's Transportation Group is a specialized transportation and moving company that's handled some notably large-scale work — moving a pre-flight Orion spacecraft capsule between test centers and on to Kennedy Space Center, and hauling aerospace equipment like an F-35 model over land. Founder H. Daniel McCollister has been honored with the Moving & Storage Institute's Lifetime Achievement Award from the American Trucking Associations. The company operates as part of a larger transportation group that relocated its corporate headquarters to Burlington, New Jersey in 2018; the public record found here is mostly corporate and industry news rather than customer accounts of local moving jobs, so it doesn't speak directly to day-to-day residential moves out of Methuen. One item worth flagging: the company was named as a co-defendant alongside United Van Lines in a federal lawsuit that reached summary-judgment briefing in Massachusetts — the available record doesn't say what the case was about or how it ended. Given the corporate-news-heavy record, it's worth asking directly about the local branch's own crew, insurance and pricing before booking a move.
