I hired Maurice Caicedo of Florida's Reliable Moving Services for four hours at $780.30. After confirming my moving arrangements with Maurice on the phone, I was left with a bad feeling that I made a poor choice for movers. My suspicions were confirmed when Florida's Less Than Reliable Moving Services was a NO SHOW. The real con was revealed when I learned Maurice was double booked and instead of being honest he hired a lesser rated crew for $565.00 hoping I wouldn't notice so he could pocket $215.30 for a job he never did. Nice try Maurice but no cigar! Definitely unethical and possibly bordering on criminal fraud. I would caution anyone considering hiring this person, your probably going to regret it one way or another. I contacted Hire-A-Helper and advised them and they promptly refunded the difference and credited " A Move Ahead Movers" who did a fantastic and professional job for me. Their work was excellent and well above my expectations. If you want honest movers that will give more than you pay for and take pride in their work, then you better hire " A Move Ahead Movers ". You can trust their work and enjoy the feeling that you got more than you paid for, very nice people.

Mover's response:
I'm just glad we were able to get the move taken care of for you.

They showed up with three people and I was worried they'd be able to get it all done. Not only did they get it done, but it was one of the best pack jobs I'd ever seen. The team they had was AMAZING and I'd recommend these guys to anyone moving. OUTSTANDING JOB!!!!

Mover's response:
Thank you Jeff!!! We hope you arrived safely to your new home. Tell your dad to pet 9er for us, & once again we apologize for the absence of the 4th mover, he wanted us to apologize on behalf of his absence. But, I am glad that the 3 of us were able to take care of it no problem & without using any additional time other than the original booked time. Also if you look at your charges, we refunded money for the 4th guys absence.

They were very nice people who seemed to respect our home and our belongings. They did a fantastic job in less time then I expected. I would recommend them to anybody and would definitely ask for them again if I ever need that type of help.

Our movers are trained professionals. Our movers always use extreme care and caution while handling your items and while in your home. This is the type of service many of our past customers have come to expect from A Move Ahead Movers.

They were supposed to arrive between 2:00pm and 3:00pm. They did not come until 3:30pm. Because of condo association rules, we only had until 4:00pm to complete our move. So instead of getting 2 hours for $250.00, we got 30 minutes for $250.00. They did get our heaviest items moved, though.

Mover's response:
You booked us for SAME DAY SERVICES. We explained to you that we would be able to accommodate after our other move (which was booked weeks in advance) and that we would do our best to accommodate the requested time frame. You informed us that would be fine and that you only had a few pieces to move. It seems you are trying to pass blame of YOUR poor planning to your condo assoc. as well as to us. We were 30 minutes later than the latest time of the 2-3PM arrival window, I do apologize about that. However, we did keep you up to date and you knew there was a possibility that we may be a little later and you knew that before we agreed to accept the job so to me, for you to write a bad review stating you were unaware is a bit unscrupulous.

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.
