These guys showed up, called before arriving and unloaded a 17 foot uhaul in under an hour. Super polite, will definitely use them again when we move. Thanks you guys!!

Mike, Kenny, and John were awesome. Very professional and packed our 7 foot pod perfectly! Would recommend A1 movers 1000% to anyone who needs help packing and moving.

On the whole, the movers did a great job moving our boxes and stacking them securely in the moving truck. They even made sure that all of our items were stacked within the four linear square feet that we needed to get the lowest possible price for the move. They also finished in a timely manner, well under two hours!

The reason that I did not give a five star review is twofold. First of all, the movers showed up to our apartment not wearing masks and came into our apartment pretty much right away not wearing masks. They eventually asked if they should put on masks, and we said yes, and they did. I commend them for asking and for eventually putting masks on, but I was surprised they didn't do so right away, or keep their masks on and then ask for permission to take them off.

The other reason I can't give a perfect review is that at one point in time we were outside with the movers as they loaded up the truck and one of the movers was smoking a cigarette and blew smoke toward us. I don't know if it was purposeful or not, but it did not seem professional to be smoking during a move. At the same time, this also meant he did not have his mask on -- like we had earlier requested -- and he was close enough for the smoke to get toward us, meaning he wasn't social distancing well.

These would be relatively small points during regular circumstances, but I did hope the movers would take the global pandemic more seriously. I was pleased with the overall service, but not enough to give five stars.

Mover's response:
we where out side loading the truck when we took our mask off , at any time you could of moved 6 ft away concidering you where not loading the truck , had we moved away from you we would not have been able to load the truck social distance goes both ways , and for the record not once did you mention any of these concerns during the move , if it was that much of a issue you would have wore your mask and stayed 6 ft from us but you didnt ,

The guys were great! Our furniture was very big and difficult to maneuver. They moved the stuff into the house and positioned it quick. I highly recommend them and will use them in the future.

Curtis and his crew were on time, organized and efficient. They treated our belongings like they were their own. Moving from Cincinnati to Connecticut was long and hard but A1 movers made the unloading the easiest part. They put everything in its place and wrapped up things we decided to store. I don’t usually take time to write reviews but knowing how bad moving is, trust me, this crew deserves your business!

Nick was very mindful and cautious about damaging house and items. Packed the truck in a way there was no shifting during the 950 miles we drove. Top notch job all around. Great experience.

These guys were the best. They arrived on time and got right to work. They were a well oiled Machine. I was impressed with how my needs came first and they protected my furniture for the move like it was their own.
