Awesome service! Showed up on time and packed everything that nothing moved during the 600 mile drive. Owner showed up and with two guys that took apart the furniture and loaded a 3 bedroom apartment in 3 hours easy. Would highly recimmend!

These guys were great! Showed up on time, worked hard in really hot humid weather, and got the job done in less than 2 hours. We couldn't have asked for more.

The actual movers were great (I would give them five stars). The owner of the company, however, is anything but. He decided to call and berate me for asking for a partial refund which I never asked for. I had booked helpers for two hours, and early on my move day simply asked whoever picked up the phone for the company if I would get charged less if they finished the job in less than two hours. She said "no", to which I replied "OK". He then went on to whine about how he only gets a small cut of my payment due to using HireAHelper. Which is not my problem. This guy doesn't seem to be the world's brightest business owner.

Mover's response:
im sorry you feel that way , i have the voice mail where you asked for a 1 hour refund , i told you we have a 2 hour minimum , then you had my employees call me and ask if the extra hour could be used as a tip , if you had called a full service moving company they would have charged you 600-1000 dollars for your move , greed is one of the seven deadly sins ,
god bless and good day ,

A-1 Movers were fantastic. They called me right after I made the reservation to confirm all the details, and were very friendly and professional. The day before my move, I realized I had reserved my truck for the wrong time and called quite late on a Sunday night (before an 8:00 am Monday move) to see if the movers could come a bit later (not expecting to speak with anyone that night, or that the change could be made). They called me back right away and were able to adjust the start time of the movers. The movers themselves were great - fast, professional, respectful of my things, and really worked hard. I would definitely use them again.

Mover's response:
thank you ,we enjoyed helping , hope to see you again , god bless

Curtis and his crew did an outstanding job on moving, placing, organizing and securing all my stuff on a 10' truck. Best of all they were extremely careful with my stuff, they handled it like I would've done it.

Mover's response:
thank you for the kind words ,
good luck and god bless

Kyle and Marque were very nice and courteous. I offered coffee and a couple Gatorades on my own accord. They packed the trailer with attention to breakables and load shifting. And they took extra care with a custom made stained glass table. Thanks guys!

Another note is that A-1 called me right away and was very open as to the 3 W's (When, Where, What).

Mover's response:
THANK YOU VERY MUCH , GOD BLESS
