Breakaway extends its sympathies to all those mourning the tragedy of September 11th. We will never forget.
Online Tracking
Breakaway customers can now track the progress of their jobs online at www.breakawaycourier.com. To use this feature, customers need to create an online user name. It is really simple. Instructions appear on our web site or you can call Account Manager Ralph Santoni at 646-674-8353.
Express Payment
Check writing is a time consuming chore, not to mention the thirty-seven cents for postage. Why not enroll in our Automatic Payment Plan? It is quick and easy, as we accept all major credit cards. You will still receive an itemized statement of your charges. You will not even have to open the envelope, as your bill will already be paid. Please contact Receivables Manager John Handrik at 646-674-8351.
Summer Memories
Summer is almost over. This year many of us vacationed close to home. However, some braved checkpoints and long lines in order to journey farther afield. If you had an exotic, exciting summer trip, give us a call. Your inspiring travel tale might make it into a future newsletter.
Deep Thought
It has been said that a person's favorite breed of dog can provide insights into their personality. An informal poll of the Breakaway Headquarter staff revealed that Chihuahuas and Pit Bulls top the list of favorites. Hmmm....
Labor Day Gratitude
In honor of Labor Day, we would like to thank the hardworking couriers and valued customers who make all our jobs possible.
Lift-Gate Truck II
Breakaway New York has recently acquired a second, 14ft-lift-gate truck. Like the first one, this extra-large vehicle is decked out in our dazzling purple Bikeman logo. Among the items that have inaugurated our new truck are a 180-pound bus tire and a dentist’s chair that was delivered out to Paterson, New Jersey. If you would like to hire one or both of our lift-gate trucks for a big job, just give us a call.
Stump the band…
Last month we asked you to tell us the name of the official New York State muffin. The response to this simple query was huge. Our favorite wrong answer was the empire muffin. The correct answer was the humble apple muffin.
T-shirt Question
How many New Yorkers died at the famous battle at the Alamo? The first person to call Ralph Santoni (with the correct answer) will win a coveted Breakaway T-shirt.
