The two movers were highly professional, efficient, and hard-working. They arrived on time and stayed an extra 1.5 hours to finish a very difficult move....a 3rd floor apt to a 2nd floor condo. It was a typical July day--humid, intermittent thunderstorms and rain, as well as mid-90 degree weather. They worked tirelessly and kept a friendly demenanor. Watching them move furniture makes one see how skillful and experienced they are. I'd definitely use them again.

Mover's response:
I'm very happy we could help you through this very stressful move. It was tough but we got it done with smiles. We take pride in our abilities and look forward to helping out on your next move.

A Move Ahead Movers were very nice and professional! We had some scheduling conflicts upon booking and they did come a little later than anticipated, but when they got there they worked very quickly to unpack our truck, and even tightened some screws on our chairs so they would wobble no more! Would definitely recommend.

Mover's response:
We would like to apologize for being a few minutes later then the scheduled arrival. Keep in mind that you did book our services last minute for the same day & I did inform you that we would be able to accommodate but we had prior commitments and would only be able to accommodate a later arrival. You did agree & opt for the later time frame, instead of booking someone else. We were a few minutes late for that arrival & I do apologize about that.

The two movers that came to help me unload my moving container were fantastic. They moved items quickly and carefully. They made sure items were being placed where I needed them. They were also very personable and humorous, which made the time go back much faster. Hopefully, I never need to move again but if I do, I will hire with them again!

Mover's response:
Thanks, Ashley. We'll be here all week

Very pleased. Team arrived on time and packed our truck in a little over an hour with a team of three. The packing was done really well as I saw little to no shifting of the items in the truck when I unloaded today. Very pleasant and personable - saved me killing my back as my daughter had an injury and would not have been able to help me.

Mover's response:
We're happy everything made it safe & sound. I can't stress enough to future customers the importance of blankets, rope and plastic wrap when hiring us or anyone to LOAD a truck/trailer/POD/Packrat. We are professional movers through and through but when proper moving supplies like listed above are not provided by you or requested for us to bring, we can not do much to protect you from damages.

My movers were 2 1/2 hours late which was a significant problem because I was driving 2 hours to catch a plane. But the two guys that showed up did an Amazing job. They knew I was stressed out and they really hustled. I fault the guy from the job ahead of mine that really messed up the company's schedule but it's hard to be charitable when you've got a time table that you've got to meet. I did make my plane and the only reason I made it was because the two guys that showed up did an excellent job. So I give the company a B rating but I give their movers an A+ rating.

Mover's response:
I'm glad we were able to accommodate at last minute.

I would like to give them more stars. These guys were polite, strong, and very caring like the items were there own. I wish I knew about them earlier. Amazing. Don't choose anyone else.

Mover's response:
Very happy to hear it went well, Mark. We named our company "A MOVE AHEAD MOVERS" for a reason.

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.
