A1 service....some minor furniture damage in transit....metal furniture in contact with wood furniture,....some paint damage on the wood......very good crew packed to make room for other furniture...on time and was able to stay an extra hour....a lot to do....phil swis

Mover's response:
We really appreciate the wonderful review Phil. We're sorry to hear that you had damage to your furniture. We can't stress enough to future customers how important having sufficent moving blankets is to your move. By not having enough blankets you can run into a situation like Phil's here and end up with damage to furnishings due to lack of moving blankets.

They were OUTSTANDING! I was very hesitant in requesting moving labor to begin with, but Tony contacted me the very next day and immediately gave me confidence that I had made a good decision. They contacted me before their arrival and were on time. Both Tony and Annessa worked as a well maintained machine, they professionally did their work and continued to ask questions. We would highly recommend them to anyone in the area for their moving jobs.

Mover's response:
We really can't say enough about the amazing feedback you provided. Annessa and I love to see these types of reviews. Awesome reviews like this definitely validate our efforts.

I rarely write reviews however, if there were ten stars I would give A Move Ahead Movers them because they were excellent in every way! I had a very complicated three day move. They arrived on time and picked up a china cabinet from my neighbor without any complaint. As a bonus they came with not only the three excellent movers Wes, Matt and Thomas but, added another mover for no extra charge! Even though they worked exceedingly efficiently using the better method of straps vs a dolly for heavy things, when my time went over my estimate, they continued working cheerfully until the job was done. Calm, cool and kind Wes was a master at packing and organizing the truck and my storage area. Nothing was damaged upon arrive at the other end. When Wes came again two days latter and I wasn't feeling well, I knew I was in good hands and everything went as well as possible. I would definitely recommend them to anyone.

Mover's response:
Thank you so much for the wonderful detailed review, Karen. Everyone here at A Move Ahead Movers is very grateful for your kind words. We sent the extra person at no charge on account of the fact that he is a mover in early training therefore he was not being charged for and was to preform limited tasks at direction of professional movers. Everyone here prides ourselves on our ability to do exceptional work while being as personable as possible. We train all of our staff to handle your belongings as if they were truly their own. Employees are taught to help keep customer's stress level low, while maintaining a positive attitude. Of course for some folks-folks like Wesley- it comes natural.

Get To Know Us

What can a customer expect after booking with you?

After booking with us you can expect a phone call from our offices just to reach out and get a feel for your unique situation. We will go over all needed supplies and firm up all the details.

What can a customer expect on moving day if they hire you?

Upon moving day you will receive a call from your movers within an hour of your booked arrival window. The movers will reach out just to make sure everything is still going according to plan and will give you their expected GPS arrival time. We know that nothing is more stressful than being nervous that the movers aren't gonna show up, so we like to put your mind at ease.

How should a customer prepare for moving day?

If you will be hiring us to load your rental truck, trailer or portable shipping container it is imperative that you provide an adequate amount of moving blankets, plastic stretch wrap and rope to avoid serious damage to your items. The blankets can usually be rented with your truck or portable shipping container and are worth every penny. We can provide rope and plastic wrap for an additional fee or it can be purchased at Lowe's or Home Depot in the moving supplies section.

What types of moves have you handled?

We have handled literally every type of move from local to long distance, from household to office/commercial. We have handled everything from medical equipment to flight simulators and we are equipped to move large items such as pianos and grand pianos.

What's your favorite part about being a mover?

Our favorite part about being movers is that we get to help someone with literally the hardest and most stressful task of their adult life.

What training do you provide your crew members?

All of our crew leaders are required to have a minimum of 4 years professional moving experience and upon hire, undergo at least 2 weeks of training with the owner of the company (a very particular veteran mover in the industry) before being set free to operate independently. All crew members undergo the same training and we typically only hire crew members who possess at least 2 years minimum professional moving experience. We don't send rookies, period.
