Although they were late... I understand why! They were giving the previous customer the same fantastic service they gave us! Good service takes time and effort. They gave us BOTH, Well prepared for the job having done numerous "POD Packing" jobs before gave them the experience we were looking for, since we are moving cross-country and want our things to get there safely and in one piece. These hard working guys moved quickly but were very respectful of us, our property and home. I can assure you that when the need arises we will definitely use them again. I'd give them my strongest recommendation for a job truly "Well Done!"

Many thanks to Nicholas & Frank for a great job. Arrived on time and did a wonderful job finishing up the details of my packing. They were fast, efficient and friendly. Hopefully, I won't need to use them again, but I certainly would recommend them to my friends. Elizabeth G

Nicholas and Fred were better than 5 stars but that is all this site will allow me to give them. Let me list a few of their qualities: 1) punctual 2) polite 3) respectful 4) friendly 5) efficient. These are just a few; however, let me say that they were able to pack up my cube with so much of the things I needed to move and did so in the 2-hour window and some of the things I learned while watching them with my belongings will stay with me forever. I had no idea how to shrink wrap my bureau or wardrobe as they were moved with items in them. Nicholas took care of this in a matter of seconds and secured all my items. My only drawback was my lack of being able to figure out I needed either a bigger cube or an additional one to take the rest of the things I had wanted to take but let me tell you that Nicholas and Fred did everything in their power to put as much as possible in that one cube. If they could have put things on top to make it work without damaging my things, they would have. I really wish they were going with me to my new location in Kentucky so they could do the unloading, too. I really appreciate their work ethic! I hope I get the same type of helpers when my belongings arrive in my new location. THANK YOU: Nicholas and Fred (side note: you make each other look good :-) ).

Despite calling to let me know they had run into some traffic and may be a few minutes late they actually showed up a few minutes early. Nick, Fred and Antonio immediately assessed what I had, carefully wrapped my furniture and expertly loaded the POD. I was concerned if everything I had would fit into the 16 foot POD. Not only did they neatly fit everything, there was room to spare. They were very respectful of my property and goods, friendly, answered all of my questions and completed the job in the three hours I contracted for. I would definitely use them again.

The movers were on time, efficient, and a pleasure to work with. I was especially impressed with how well they protected our furniture with blankets and plastic wrap. Nothing was damaged.

The team from A-1 was terrific. They called to let me know they were on their way. The team consisted of Nick, Dustin and Antonio. They also had Hope with them as their driver. They had all the tools they needed to disassemble my furniture. In addition, they located the shut off valve for our ice maker so they could move the refrigerator (something I hadn't thought about beforehand). They worked well together as a team and were very hard-working, professional, kind and friendly. They made the entire experience VERY easy for me - putting my mind to rest. I almost forgot to mention, unfortunately, my builder showed up just before them and he and his worker were jackhammering my old floor in the main area of the house during the entire time the A-1 team was moving the furniture. They had to work around them, climbing over cords and debris, while listening to some really loud jackhammering noise! Every thing looks very organized in the container they place the furniture in. I will leave another review when they come to move the furniture back as then we will see how the whole thing worked out. At this point, I would highly recommend them!
