33 Watch | Bekins, the Original Trucking Company

Bekins is the nation's first trucking company, being the first to move from horse drawn delivering, to mechanized motor vehicles.  It was founded in 1891, by John and Martin Bekins.  Bekins also happens to be a last name with '33 numerology'.

• Bekins = 2+5+11+9+5+1 = 33

Courtesy of Wikipedia, here is a timeline for the history of the company.

• 1891: Bekins Van Lines was founded by brothers John and Martin
• 1903: First van line in the industry to use motor trucks instead of horse-drawn wagons
• 1906: First concrete and steel warehouse as built by Bekins
• 1928: First transcontinental move completed by Bekins
• 1960: Bekins Company established Bekins Wide World, later known as Bekins International
• 1964: Bekins Company moves Jay DeFeo's iconic two ton painting, 'The Rose', out of her San Francisco apartment.

Also courtesy of Wikipedia, here is a list of Bekins pop culture references.

• At the end of False Alarms (1936), The Three Stooges drive off in a Bekins van.
• In Impact (1949), the protagonist stows away in a Bekins van after an unsuccessful attempt on his life.
• In Step Brothers, The Huff's, played by Mary Steenburgen and Will Ferrell are packed and moved using The Bekins Company.
• In Legally Blonde, Elle Woods, played by Reese Witherspoon, moved to Harvard using The Bekins Company.
• In The American President, Sydney Ellen Wade moved to Washington, and her things are moved in boxes marked "Benkins".
• In the film version of the musical Hello Dolly a horse drawn "Bekins Moving & Storage Co" wagon is shown in the opening sequence set at New York City in 1890. As the company did not exist at this time, this reference is an anachronism.
• In Antitrust, Milo is moved to Portland using The Bekins Company.
• in the beginning scenes of Close Encounters of the Third Kind. A Bekins box is in the mothers room as she awakes to get her son Barry.

Again, is this is a coincidence, or more evidence of '33' being the innovators and architects of the world we live in?  I think it is telling Bekins was first used with the "Three Stooges".
Moe Howard... Curly Howard... and Larry Fine

• Moe = 13+15+5 = 33
• Howard = 8+6+5+1+9+4 = 33
