Moving Reviews
Real Ocala area customers. Unedited, unfiltered reviews of A Move Ahead Movers.
Elizabeth C
The movers were awesome! They worked fast and they worked hard with respect for all of my furniture.
The only negative was the woman who answered the phone. After the initial booking I needed to reschedule and she wouldn’t take my calls or response to my voicemails. I had to call the corporate number and they would call for me (thank you Anne and Walter).
Again, I cannot say enough good things for the guys that do all the heavy lifting!
Drew O
Quick, efficient, no complaints about what they had to move, very helpful, would recommend for future references , wouldn’t hesitate to use them again and would definitely pass their details to anyone I know who needs help

I didn’t feel the knowledge was there on how to pack a container. They did not pack correctly, in fact we spent 3 hours repacking to fit our belongings. As I compare what they did vs watching the video on how to pack, they did it wrong. I also spent an additional 3 hours of cost when there only should have been 1 additional hour. Our home even had about 5 pieces of furniture (desk, 1 bed, 2 tables and a 32” wide wood unit) I picked them because they were a small local business and wanted to help support my community. I might think twice next time...was not happy...
behind when we got there, then tried to use it as payment for the overtime at the end of the move. When I told you that wasn't how it worked and that you would have to pay the overages, you became upset and argued with me that the couch was worth x amount of dollars and that you shouldn't be being charged. I explained to you that while we appreciated the couch we did not have to take it but that we did have to get the overage payment. I'm shocked that you would completely lie like this over overages that were 100% legit, especially since you seemed to be very pleased we were taking the couch and you wouldn'thave to fool with it. The fact is that you had a lot of items that you wanted into the POD and in order to get those items in it required disassembling all items possible and time to wrap and protect said items. I do want to point out yet again that we did get every item in your home besides the couch that we took with us and the bed you claimed to be throwing out. You could have asked us to stop at anytime over the booked time and definitely should not have assumed we would waive overages due to being GIVEN furniture items as it says nowhere in the contract that such transactions would take place. Again, I do apologize but we cannot accept furniture as payment no matter how nice it may or may not be. Thanks, again for the couch, your review and your business.

Excellent and courteous service

Matthew and Thomas were excellent ! Very professional and knew exactly how to fit everything in the pod. Very likeable guys !!
Very careful with our things.
Would highly recommend this company.
Nancy O
They were punctual, polite and took great care packing our furniture into a PODS container. When we ran into a snag with space, they coordinated their schedule to meet ours and returned to pack an additional smaller container. We’d use them again in a heartbeat.
Mary B
The two men were very polite and professional. A pleasure to work with. I would recommend them to other friends.

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.

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 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.
