RICHMOND, Va. , Feb. 18, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Lingerfelt is pleased to announce the acquisition of a 10-acre parcel of industrial land that abuts its Ashton Creek Distribution Center facility at 1611 Ashton Park Drive in Colonial Heights, VA .

A&A Transfer, a subsidiary of MEI Rigging & Crating and a premier national provider of rigging, machinery moving, millwrighting, specialized transportation, industrial storage, crating, and export packaging services, will utilize the site as industrial outdoor storage (IOS) to better serve its existing client base and its expanding market share in the data center sector.

The expansion will increase A&A Transfer's outdoor storage capacity at their existing facility, a 173,800-square-foot industrial building delivered by Lingerfelt in February of 2024.
