> Emil Cohen, remains active in the business. the company's history as they recall it for a visitor to the vast
warehouseon Lurline ave, near Lassen, in Chatsworth, California.

> World Movers uses the 20,000-square-foot warehouse for storage, which has become a significant part of the business.

> Some of the items in the tall packing crates have been on the premises for years. It surprises Emil sometimes how
longpeople will store something. Last year, World Movers took over the storage inventory of another company that shut
down.A woman who had been storing some furniture with that company since the 1990s called him to make sure he could
continueholding onto it for her.

Hewill do what the customer wants.

> Summer is the busiest season for movers. World Movers does 60 percent of its volume between late May and early
Septemberbecause parents prefer to move in the summer so the school year is not disrupted, Emil said.  
>
> One piece of advice that Emil has for people who are about to move is to book the mover two to four weeks in advance.
"Ifit's less than two weeks, you stand a chance of not getting a mover."  
>
> Another is to avoid moving, if you can, near the first or last of the month, when many moves are made as leases begin
andend. Emil also recommends making sure that the mover you hire is licensed. That means the company has the proper
insuranceand experience, he said.

> "You can't be a weakling, but you don't need to be a weight lifter," Emil said. "Agility is moreimportant. You need
tomove quickly. How easily can you move a dresser around a 180-degree stairway?"

> Emil is dressed to move quickly in sneakers, jeans and a T-shirt. Does he still do any of the physical work himself?

furniture."

> Perhaps the toughest part of the job is moving someone who is being evicted, Emil said. The evictee is not always
pleasedto see a moving van he did not request pull up at his door.

> One such person once greeted Emil Cohen at the door with a shotgun on his shoulder. "I'm not moving," the man said.
"Doyou have a problem with that?"

concerningthe move, without any gunplay.
