A moveahead movers are awesome! They called ahead, day before and day of move. They came prepared and actually prepared me with a list of supplies I should get. Completely loaded a 16' truck in under 3 hours and were very careful not to damage anything. I would definitely use them again. - Terry

Mover's response:
Terry, we really cannot stress to our future customers enough, the importance of supplies like moving blankets, plastic wrap and rope. No move can be completed without damages occurring to furnishing without having proper supplies. We are trained professionals and are known for quick, efficient, affordable services.

They were fantastic ....They came on time,1 hour into the move the sky ripped open.They waited for awhile checked the local weather and it was going to rain for the rest of the night.I had to be moved out before 9:00 AM the next day so they came at 7:00 AM and had all my stuff out by 9:00 AM.I was so grateful.I would definitely recommend them.

Mover's response:
I'm glad we had the availability to come back the next day and help you out. We always try our best to accommodate our customers needs. We hate to leave someone hanging due to unforeseen circumstances like rain and always do our best to be able to plan around it/wait it out/or reschedule accordingly.

Very careful, conscientious men who took pride in wrapping furniture with padding and plastic! Very reasonable cost compared to hiring movers as I have previously done. I will be hiring them again to move my belongings once my home that was heavily damaged by Hurricane Irma is restored.

Mover's response:
Glad that we could accommodate, Laura. Wes and Mike (the crew responsible for not just this move, but, the one above it and the 3 reviewed below it as well) said to tell you they were happy to help. FUTURE CUSTOMERS please read our reviews thoroughly and read all responses. 99% of our VERY FEW unsatisfied customers resulted in being unprepared or by not allowing us to use our expertise to the full potential of its capabilities. Our recommendations should be taken seriously.

Tony and his wife did an excellent job moving everything into the PODS. I thought that I was hiring them to put everything back into the house but they sent two other guys that were not as careful with our things. They broke the bottom wood on some bedroom furniture and broke the top off an antique dresser. I found the piece on the floor of the PODS after they left and had to glue it back together as best as I can. They did not put the glass shelves back but left them stacked together instead of on each shelf. Be careful when hiring as you may not get who you thought that you were hiring.

Mover's response:
Please keep in mind that the wood piece on that antique that broke was recommended to be removed by myself (Tony) when we loaded the POD. I recall being in the process of removing it when you stopped me & told me it was unnecessary. I informed you that damages were likely, as it is a fragile ornate piece that easily removes & can avoid all risk of it snapping off. ALL of our movers take great pride in handling your items with care.

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.
