the helpers arrived on time...BUT a lot of my home goods were damaged or ruined! They stacked the items on top of each other i arrived with scratched tables, broken lamps, torn dining chair broken frame on picture (that was wrapped and protected) and also missing items!

Mover's response:
We are so sorry to hear you had damages. However, I DID INFORM YOU UPON LOADING that damages to boxes and furniture was going to be very likely due to inproper packing of boxes and lack of moving blankets on YOUR behalf. My wife and myself (owners) personally loaded this truck and I assure you that EVERY item we were told to load was loaded. YOU CANNOT LOAD A TRACTOR TRAILER FULL OF HOUSEHOLD GOODS WITHOUT THE PROPER PROTECTION AND EXPECT TO NOT HAVE DAMAGES.

A Move Ahead Movers were on time, prepared, hardworking, efficient, and knowledgeable. We would definitely hire them again.

Mover's response:
I'm glad we were able to get that lawn mower moved for you! Who would have known putting a commercial lawn mower that size in a tracror trailer was as easy as a few clicks online and a phone call, huh?

Don't waste anymore of your time and money and book A Move Ahead now! I have already spoken with the owner and will be using them again for my next move when I close on my house.

With that being said I was contacted shortly after selecting A Move Ahead Movers on hireahelper and completing the process online. The gentleman I spoke with on the phone wanted to confirm what I put into hireahelpers system and since I put I was flexible on my time wanted to firm things up with a start time to help me off load a very well packed moving truck.

They showed up on time and ready to work with all the tools and equipment needed to do the job. They very systematically unloaded the truck and you could see they knew exactly what they wanted/needed to do in order to get a lot of my belongings in a storage unit. They worked together, but at the same time were independently staying proactive so no time was wasted at all.

All my belongings were left in excellent condition and I am already relieved that I will not have to search for another company to handle my move at a later date.

Thank you A Move Ahead for being so quick, professional, and working so hard to provide the best services around!

Tony and his wife were prompt and easy to work with. We had to make a last minute time change and they accommodated me with that to make everything go smoothly. They had everything they needed to make the job efficient and keep within the time frame. Defiantly would use them again.

Mover's response:
Annessa and I (Tony) appreciate the great review. It was our pleasure to make your move a smooth one!!

At first they were an hour and a half late from there estimated arrival time. They did work hard but they took frequent stops and breaks to smoke, and at the end of the unloading they charged us an extra 30 mins of time that was not used.

Mover's response:
I'm sorry you were so dissatisfied with our service. With it being 100 degrees out that day and your apartment being located on the 3rd floor with a long walk, a break or two can be expected. Time is automatically rounded up after 15 minutes so we do apologize about the 30 min, however we offered to stay for the additional 15 minutes and your husband said that was not necessary. This review confused me. Your husband was very happy upon our departure and informed us of leaving a great review.

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.
