Real New Bedford area customers. Unedited, unfiltered reviews of A-1 Movers.

Were they on time? YES
Were they prepared for the job? YES
Did they work hard? YES!!
Were they respectful of your property and goods? YES and respectful to me.
Would you use them again. YES. Larry and David did a fantastic job. Some items were not easy to move. But they got the job done without a single complaint. And it was 90 degrees and humid today!! I would recommend the company supplying these guys shoulder harnesses! It is much easier to maneuver large heavy furniture. And easier on the body.

We hired 2 men for 4 hours to move a 2 bedroom apartment but due to their lack of interest in the work, we needed to pay for another hour. They started at 9:15 am, took a smoke break 45 minutes into the job and about an hour before the time was up they stated they had another job to go to and had to leave at 1 pm. One reason we chose A-1 was they could work extra hours if needed and were rated well. According to the movers they needed to leave before the 4 hours were up. I called Curtis (the owner of the company) and had to demand that they fulfill the 4 hours already paid for. According to the contract, I also asked for 1 additional hour, well within my rights. Curtis was very rude and offensive to talk with. He reluctantly agreed that the movers would stay for the full 4 hours and if needed, an extra hour longer. He was not happy. Prior to ending the phone call the last words I heard were,” Are you F****** serious” and then the phone call ended. This is totally unacceptable behavior from any business owner to a customer. Not only was the business owner unacceptable but the movers did not bring packing wrap as requested and I physically had to ask them to use the dolley when we needed to move items into an elevator to take the items up 4 flights. After dealing with torn boxes, damaged glassware (boxes were labeled FRAGILE) and a damaged dresser drawer, I would never do business with this person or with A-1 movers again. I would never recommend that anyone use this moving company in the future. The movers themselves were unmotivated, inefficient and had no sense of urgency. We chose to hire movers to eliminate some of the stress associated with moving and make things easier. What a joke A-1 turned out to be. Needless to say we were very disappointed with the overall service.
Demanding more hours even before job was started ,

Curtis the contact person was easy to deal with and very professional in assuring us that they would be there on time and could easily do the job for us. The work team arrived on time and were definitely prepared to do the job. Larry and David, the two delightful fellows who loaded our POD for us, did an outstanding job being very careful with every box and piece of furniture they loaded. The packing was tight and well secured. They worked very hard and were very professional in their dealings with us. I waited until the POD arrived before writing this to make sure things stayed put. They sure did. Not an item had moved from where Larry and David put it. I would definitely recommend them based on our experience.
Sandra F
They were strong and capable and worked hard. They were respectful of my goods and respectful to me. They worked very hard in an older house (1700) with low ceilings, narrow hallways and tight turns. I would use them again but I would make a last check before they left: several items were left stacked next to the front door. They arrived about 10 minutes late.

Larry and Rob did an awesome job loading all my things into our POD. They were very friendly, fast and efficient! Very pleased with their help for our move! Thank you!!!!
