Larry and Rob did an awesome job loading all my things into our POD. They were very friendly, fast and efficient! Very pleased with their help for our move! Thank you!!!!

Larry and Jason could not have been more courteous, professional and pleasant. They made an anxious time a lot easier than it could have been. They were a great team and communicated with very few words. I would recommend them in a heart beat!!!

The movers worked incredibly hard, were extremely careful with my furniture and my walls, brought mats to protect the floors where they first came in, helped with minor furniture assembly, always asked where to put things, and were polite and friendly. They were a bit late, but in my case that was fine because it was raining when they should have arrived. They finished the job in 2-1/2 hours rather than the estimated 4 hours. I would certainly use them again, and passed ther names onto several people working at the home. Only negative is that Hire-a-Helper charged me for 4 hours even though I texted after 2-1/2 hours that the job was completed.

Both movers were extremely courteous and pleasant. This was a traumatic move for me, and they were understanding and kind. They were very careful of my belongings and appreciated the history of some of my older pieces. They were efficient, hard workers and would not take a break even when I suggested that they should. I would highly recommend A-1 to anyone, especially for a long distance move. Can not say enough good things about this outfit.

The guys were great. They were courteous, respectful, conscious of time, and did an excellent job making the best use of the truck rental space. They also helped disassemble some furniture at my new house and were efficient in placing stuff in a crowded location.

I called and duscussed our move twice with the scheduler for A-1 movers and despite my request for dollies and description of the long (very long) walk from the POD to the apartment (the other end of a mill) and the contents of the POD - a 16 foot POD with lots of books- he sent us a team without dollies. Not only were they told it was one bedroom apartment, but they were not informed about the hallway. It shows very little concern by management for their team. The move went 1 hour over the scheduled 3 hours, (it took four men three hours to wrap and load the truck). and it would have been longer had it not been for a kind neighbor who loaned us two dollies. As It was they left without any furniture assembly. The movers themselves were good and efficient but as the time wore on, frustrated and tired.
Some people have ridiculous expectations, my other reviews speak for m

The three guys were great! In their own words they were 'wicked neat!' They were late, but called to explain and it actually worked out for the best since my apartment had not been cleaned by the previous tenants. The movers unloaded my 16' PODS container and were attentive to where the items needed to end up and they treated my belongings with great care. I did not realize until after the fact that they conscientiously stacked things no higher than three boxes so that I could easily access things to unpack. I had requested ahead of time that the team please not ask my dad to lift anything heavy and they treated this with good humor and teased him in a way that was really supportive and kind rather than dismissive; I was surprised and really pleased by that level of courtesy. I'd recommend them to anyone in the greater Boston area and will definitely call them first if I move again. They finished way before the 2hr mark because they were so attentive and efficient.

A-1 Movers were very flexible and helpful after U-Haul made my move a little more stressful! U-Haul forced me to be 30 minutes late to our move, but A-1 Movers were extremely fast at loading and unloading the truck so we stayed with in our allotted time. A-1 Movers were also extremely helpful when my couch almost didn't fit through our door frame! Great music choices too! This is the second time I have used this company, and I will continue using them in the future.
