Partner Spotlight : Central Moving & Storage

Before that first box of Thin Mints is opened , it takes a mighty team of volunteers to make sure the cookie CEO ’ s are prepared to supply Central Florida with their yearly fix of Girl Scout Cookies . For more than three years , Central Moving and Storage ( CMS ) has partnered with Girl Scouts of Citrus ( GSC ) to produce Mega Drop , a yearly all hands-on-deck way to organize and distribute 53,523 cases of cookies to the council ’ s six-county footprint .
With the help of 200 volunteers , CMS is able to move empty cars , trucks , and of course a few moving vans through their facility before packing them full of cookies at one of the 13 volunteeroperated commercial sized bays . This closely choreographed dance is what allows GSC to distribute all of the cookies in a single day .
