Yes Movers are like a handling agent. The trade is a lot of civilian jobs rolled into one. A mover is trained in the movement of passengers and freight by road, rail, air, sea and even inland waterways as I remember.
Manifesting, customs regulations (imports and exports) DAC packing and clearance through military and IATA regulations. General freight (packing and shipping). Passenger Handling. Loading, driving the loading vehicles and finally the completion of the aircraft trim and all associated paper work. This is what a movements controller is qualified to do after about 2 years.
As people progress up the rank structure they qualify in other areas, which I don’t have, time to go into.
A good job with some good people.

All spelling mistakes are because I can’t spell.
