I would definitely use the same guys again. I can't remember their names, but I was pleased with the way they handled my furniture. ???????? Oh almost forgot. I had rented two storage units because I had a lot of stuff, but the guys were so good at packing the unit, that all my things fitted in just one unit. So, they actually saved me money.

Mover's response:
Thanks, Marilyn. I'm glad you let me pack the unit my way. Matthew said he was pretty confident from the beginning that he could consolidate the 2 units into 1. We are here to save you money.

My helpers were excellent! They emptied my pod very quickly. They were respectful of all of my belongings and left everything the way I asked them to I would definitely recommend your company and I’m so happy that PODS recommended them

Mover's response:
This is a perfect example of why we are one of Central Florida's top service providers here on Hireahelper.com!

I was very impressed with the movers. The movers were on time and got started immediately. They worked non-stop and packed the truck perfectly. I booked 3 helpers for 4 hours to move a 2 bedroom apartment from the 3rd floor. Not only did they finish within the time frame, but they offered to help build up the furniture with the remaining time. They were professional, respectful and efficient. I would definitely recommend them. I'm so grateful & appreciative of their help.

Mover's response:
Thank you for taking the time to leave feedback. We appreciate it.

These guys were great. They took special care in loading our pods to get as much in as possible. Unfortunately, we under estimated how much room we needed. We needed to rent a truck the next day for the overflow that did not fit into the pods. Even though these guys were booked for the next day, they made time to come back and help us load the truck. I would absolutely recommend “A Move Ahead Mover” for your move.

Mover's response:
Thanks a million for the awesome review, Pat! We are all very pleased that we were able to be of service to you folks.

Two of the the nicest, kindest, hard working young men I've met in a long time. Perfect blend of friendly and professional. Very good at their job.

Mover's response:
We really value feedback such as this, Deb!
Matthew and Tom appreciate it.

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!

Mover's response:
Sorry if there was a delay in phone response, Elizabeth. As far as "the guys who do all the heavy lifting" statement, you may want to check the review boards because the lady who answers the phone definitely does lots of the heavy lifting around here. My wife and I both answer phones as well as participate in moves daily. Some days (slow days) we get to the phone quick and respond to voicemails fast, other days (busy days-all hands on deck days) not so quick. Every customer is important to us-from the job we are on at the current moment down to the customer who unknowingly calls in the middle of a move to reschedule. We will not stop working to take calls on moves but we do call back and check voicemail afterwards. We valve your feedback and appreciate your time and business.

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.
