On time. Finished early. Prepared. Worked hard. Also, managed to use every space of the cube I’d ordered. Was expecting to have to throw some stuff out but didn’t have to.

Mover's response:
Thank you, Edward! It's been a pleasure to implement exceptional service.

The people that were supposed to help me load showed up 45 minutes late. I had to pay them for 2 hours of work when they only worked 45 minutes. The put a picture on my white sofa and the picture was broken and bleed blue onto my sofa which I can’t get out. Overall bad experience. Would not hire again.

Mover's response:
Prior to move, a contact support request was initiated to change arrival time window one hour forward. Customer loaded truck. Total move time was seventy minutes, not forty five.

They were 3 hours late which was frustrating, but they got the job done. My move was within the same building and on the same floor, so I can’t speak to transporting any furniture or boxes with a vehicle.

Mover's response:
Thank you for the work Ellie! Forgive me for our tardiness, please.

The crew showed up late and started with 2 members, instead of 3 as stated in the contract, the third person showed up after one hour late.

On top of that, the crew were very very slow and they broke an expensive Italian Marbel table that is worth couple of thousands of dollars.

One of the crew was on the phone texting for the first 2 hours and taking all the time to extend the service beyond the 3 hours ??

They ended up completing the job in total of 4.5 hours and causing us a delay for the unloading crew

The unloading crew took exactly 2:15 hours to finish the job!!! That tells volume about this company performance

Mover's response:
I take your concerns very seriously. As for loading, additional time is often required to effectively protect goods. I apologize for the inconvenience of the third person arriving late and the broken Italian marble table. That being stated, the crew leader was not duly informed of one of the crew texting for the first two hours and procrastinating. An additional reimbursement can be provided to compensate for that. I accept full responsibility for the consequences of our actions that have arisen from our service. Also, I no longer work together with the movers in question that performed this service.

Jeremy and his team arrived right on time. They did a walk through to confirm what furniture was being placed on the truck and got right to work. Truck was loaded in 2 hours (actually had 5 minutes to spare) and care was taken to protect my furniture and all the boxes they packed in. Would definitely use them again!!

Mover's response:
Trena - Thank you for the work!

They called to confirm the appointment and were on time. They worked so hard, and it was a very hot day. They did such a good job and moved everything with care. I highly recommend! I will use them for my next move if they’re available.

Mover's response:
Tanya - Thank you for the work.

They changed the time to 3 hours later than scheduled and showed up with 3 people when I requested 2. That’d be fine, but at the end he added the charge for the third ($135). I don’t understand that at all. They weren’t able to move as much stuff as they should have - other movers moved me into this storage unit with the same size truck. I worked the entire time along side them, literally doing as much as any of the 3 available guys, and yet we couldn’t move a one bedroom apartment in 4 hours with 4 people working! What the heck?????
Very rough with my stuff - Have a lot of broken items. Not personable at all - to the point of rude almost. Not happy.

Mover's response:
The extra charge was a nominal amount. The truck was loaded carefully and secured. The load included a long carry roughly one hundred feet and required the use of an elevator. It is completely untrue we were rough with stuff. Forgive me for the misunderstanding.

Both gentlemen were extremely professional, punctual, and put there all into the work.
Mine was a unique situation where I was not only moving my handicapped mother out of her house, but also having to remove an excessive amount of trash at the same time. I was personally moving my mother in my own trailer.
Not only did they help pack boxes and professionally pack my trailer so that nothing would shift or break during transportation, but they also helped move pieces out to the side of the road and into the dumpster.
No job/ askance was denied or not done gratefully.
This move could not have been done without Alpha Moving, and I am extremely grateful for their help. It took a load off my mind to not have to worry about the tasks they accomplished.

Mover's response:
Erick - Thank you for the work.
