I highly recommend A.B. Industries. They were on time, prepared, worked incredibly hard, and they were respectful of my property. The packed my moving truck well and when they finished that before the end of the allotted two hours then worked to help me clean my apartment in preparation to move out. I cannot recommend A.B. strongly enough. Aaron provides excellent customer service. I will use A.B. again.

They arrived on time, prepared to go to work, and worked hard. However, Aaron (the business owner and lead worker) has serious issues when it comes to dealing with his helper/employee and with dealing with his customer/me.

We were told that Aaron had worked with this helper on numerous previous occasions. However, Aaron repeatedly treated this helper like a child, to the point of literally stopping work and lecturing him on how to do his job. I'm sure that this was very humiliating to the helper. I am fortunate that I never had to work for a boss like Aaron. To repeatedly dress down a subordinate in public is not the way to win loyalty and we were embarassed for Carl (the helper). "Praise in public, criticize in private."

On the matter of the treatment of the customer/me, at one point Aaron appeared to be puzzled as to how to fit a tall piece of furniture into the truck. When I suggested a solution to the problem Aaron turned to the helper and told him to take his direction from me, then walked off the truck in a huff. In his defense he did apologize for his behavior just as soon as his temper cooled down and again at the end of the job. Nonetheless, this is unacceptable behavior.

Although they did a decent job, I would not recommend this company.

Mover's response:
We are terribly sorry for any inconvenience! We strive to ensure that there are no problems on your move and We send out crew members that will complete the job at hand in an Above and Beyond manner. At times there may be difficulties ensuring a perfect move and we apologize for any discomfort. However we are glad to hear that the helpers arrived on time and did the job properly and worked very hard for you and there were no serious problems. Thank you for your consideration and for the review!

I chose AB's because they had the most positive rating, and I was not disappointed. Prompt, polite and efficient. Would absolutely use them again.

Aaron and John came in right on time on a very cold and snowy Saturday afternoon. They did an awesome job and even took care of not tracking any snow, mud dirt into our lovely condo. The work was completed before the 2 hours and everything was packed neatly into our Pods. Both men were very polite and gave helpful hints. Awesome job! We recommend them highly.

I hired A.B.'s Muscle Men to help my wife and I unload heavy furniture from four 6x7x8 ABF relocation cubes.

Aaron and his associate (I think his name was Bill -- so sorry if I'm remembering wrong) did a great job. They were polite, helpful, ready and willing to work. What's more, they were careful with our belongings. They finished within the two hours we had agreed upon.

The only blemish on their record was not really their fault: They were a couple of hours late showing up.
The Michigan winter weather got in the way of an earlier job that was far away. While my wife and I were unloading the lighter boxes in the snow, Aaron and Bill were driving in that mess. They did call us to let us know what was going on. I'm glad they made it to our apartment at all -- and in one piece.

These guys were great and passed all expectations!! They were friendly and did an amazing job. They arrived on time went to work right away and never stopped until the job was done. They finsihed moving everything a little early and instead of just leaving they helped us clean up the truck and get some furtinure re-assembled. We have never had such great movers and next time we move we are going to hire these guys again.

AB's Muscle Men were life saving. They were extremely prompt, professional, and went the extra mile helping me move. At the last minute they were able to rearrange the UHaul to fit in my couch. Their handyman skills saved me hours, as they helped prime walls in my apartment and take down curtain rods. I would recommend them to anyone move into or out of 100 miles of the Lansing area. They were worth every penny and I would definitely use them again. I can't stress enough how helpful and hardworking these guys were.

Hired A.B.'s Muscle Men to move my daughter into her new apartment. We only needed a couple of people to help unload her moving truck and this company fit the bill perfectly for a great price. The whole experience was extremely positive, from first contact to the follow up emails. They were on time, efficient and courteous. I would HIGHLY recommend them to anyone.
