Natrona Transfer & Storage Company


Natrona Storage & Moving Company was a moving and storage company that dated back many decades. Their substantial building was built just off of the Burlington Northern Railroad, which made for easy shipping in the days when the company relied upon horse drawn wagons to move freight.

This building was in use up until quite recently, although it apparently no longer is being used. In recent years, as the "Allied" sign indicates, the company engaged in interstate moving, as well as local moving and storage.
This photograph was added those above were posted. This photos shows the railroad sidetrack that once served this building.

The painted signs on this building are, in fact, no longer there. Since the original photographs were taken, the building was substantially overhauled and no remnant of the original signs now exists.

We recently purchased the building. There are some "ghost signs" on the building, but not much. We have cleaned up quite a bit, and have restored most of the building.
These are the first older pictures we have seen of the building, pretty cool... glenn@gotmetalcolorado.com.

I noticed that the building seems to have been really cleaned up recently. What was it like inside of it?
