We’re thrilled to share that Wallace Wyatt has been recognized as a Winner of Van Operator of the Month by United Van Lines for June 2024, specifically in the East region! Wallace has been a valuable member of Team Hilldrup for 9 years, with 27 total years of experience in the industry. Over that time, he has delivered service excellence, safety and quality both on and off the road.
Wallace’s recognition comes on the heels of Lonnie Orf being named Winner of Van Operator of the Month by United Van Lines for May 2024. Having back-to-back winners is a testament to the dedication of our team.
Wallace loves meeting and interacting with different people as part of his job. This has even included some “undercover” people. Wallace was a part of the Undercover Boss TV show that featured United Van Lines, and he moved a “customer” that was included in the show. Talk about the unknown pressure to deliver excellence!
Of course, the metrics needed to qualify and win Van Operator of the Month are no small feat!

This isn’t the first time Wallace has been recognized for his efforts. He was named Hilldrup’s 2023 Van Operator of the Year at our Best of the Best Awards in February of 2024. He was praised for going after any job in front of him – no matter what’s required, where it’s located or what team is supporting him on the road.
