    Default lined up

    What does "lined up" mean in the following?

    With the very first profits, Jobs rented a post-office box and lined up an answering service, both intended to make Apple look like a real company.

    Thank you.

    'arranged (for)'.
    Context is always important; labelling is rarely important.
