John and his team were excellent! Super friendly, knowledgeable and I would recommend these guys to anyone.

While the workers were polite and respectful of my property I was not happy with the pace of packing the pod. The 2 inside workers were quick and efficient however I found the outside packer just standing around a lot. Also one of the workers expressed why everything was just sitting on the driveway. He commented that it should have all been packed by then. They asked for a break and one came back after about 5 minutes but the other 2 were gone for 15 minutes. As a result I ended up paying for another hour. They only went over by 1/2 hour however 15 of that was a break that I should not be paying for. After my son arrived they seemed to pick up the pace a bit. I feel like they saw an older woman alone and could stall and get me to be charged extra. I will never use them again because of this.
i really don't know what is wrong with people these days no compassion at all , and for the record your son showed up 15 minute before we finished , and he was impressed .

A-1 Movers did a fantastic job unloading our POD and moving our furniture and boxes into our new home. They communicated well throughout the day. They were on-time, professional, and careful with our items and home. They listened to any concerns I had and addressed them satisfactorily. They worked diligently for the time that I had them and met their commitments. I would highly recommend them.

100% what a move should be like. Movers arrived exactly at scheduled time (to the minute) and even showed up with one extra mover/supervisor which made everything super streamlined. The 3x guys were extremely nice, professional, efficient, and careful with everything. Finished almost a full hour early too and everything was packed amazingly. Also A-1 has one of the best prices in the area… Cannot recommended enough.

First you folks wildly underestimated the job. 4000 sq ft. 4 movers four hours? I get the push to give a low estimate. But $800 versus the over 2 k it really was. I knew you were way short (as you were a my packers ) so it was no surprise. But you ought to give legit estimates and assign legit sized crews. We prob needed 8 movers. Now to the movers. Nice kids but way inexperienced. All day they told us we’d only use 2 and a quarter of 3 pods. Then at the very end we were told they couldn’t get everything in. We had to panic junk or give away many items since we were moving the next day including a $5000 Oriental rug and excercise bike and a thousand dollar mirror which the movers missed even though I told them about it and left it on the wall, a fountain, outdoor tables , pottery and many other items Many of the left items were dear to us and if they made a correct initial assessment I may have been able to get another pod. The crew fatigued at the end and just left w the job incomplete. And during the day they were sweating and sitting on our furniture and left cold drinks on our chairs and tables leaving water marks. Again they were nice kids but not up to the job and clearly Inexperienced. But your company is most to blame w your bogus estimates and clearly no screening of the companies you use as movers. Obviously I will never use you again and will relate this to pods.
first hireahelper told you it was going to take longer than 4 hours to load a 5000 sgft home ,it says in special note to be advised the the job will take longer.
second its not our fault you didn't have enough pods to fit all your stuff
and 3rd who in the world pays 1000 dollars for a mirror i could have bought at Walmart for 29.99
its funny when someone tries to cut corners to save money ,they blame everything on everyone else but not themselves
i guess its true ,you cant make everyone happy , i have hundreds of 5 star reviews that proves this is one is a foolish review

The 2 guys from A-1 movers were great! They showed up on time and made very quick work emptying the Pod I had reserved. They worked non-stop for about 2 hours and put everything where I wanted them to quickly and efficiently. I couldn't believe how fast they were. They were friendly and nice to work with. I highly recommend them if you need no-nonsense, strong, and courteous movers!
