They helped us move into a new house, which is never an easy task. The way they worked was so organized that everything just fell into place, and my husband and I were actually able to relax.

Hired on Thumbtack

I don't usually cheer on Thumbtack and I'm leery of people that have nothing in their reviews but 5-stars or 1-star, but these guys are worth some serious recommendation. I've had some bad experiences with moving companies in the past, the usual stuff - broken furniture, surly attitudes, etc. I figured it was par for the course. A1 sent us a quote and assumed that even some negative reviews these guys must be halfway decent. My expectations were exceeded. The whole contract was negotiated in email, including a 5% discount for doing the move on a Monday. All emails were responded to super fast and contracts all passed back and forth as attachments. Wow, a moving company that "gets" the modern communication age, thank you! They confirmed a few days before and called on the way, too. It's amazing how your first contact impression with a company can make a big difference. LaShawn, who fielded all my emails, was awesome. My place was is up in Darnestown and most people get lost, but the guys showed up between 9AM and 10AM right when scheduled. I had scheduled three guys and they had a fourth at no charge. The first thing they did was have everyone introduce themselves, very professional and a nice start. We did a walk-through and I pointed out everything that had to go, I had several expensive pieces from back home and everything I requested (wrap this well, etc, etc) was answered with a cheerful "no problem!" They cleaned out my place in 6 hours, everything was well wrapped and stacked, they were extremely conscious of the walls and doors, not a nick or anything anywhere. It was pretty amazing how fast it went and the guys have obviously been working together for a long time and work well as a team. At my destination, despite an elevator, they were organized and they had everything sorted in no time. I had labeled boxes (bath, bed, kitchen, garage, etc) and everything was put where it should be, and again, no walls or door jams were hurt in the process. When they stacked, they did so in a sensible way and kept halls clear. I had requested 12 wardrobe boxes, so I assumed that they would bring some for me to start shoving my hanging clothes into. Instead they just said "tell us what you want moved" and they did everything, including putting all the clothes into wardrobe boxes, and putting all the clothes in my closets at the destination. It's little touches like that you really appreciate on move day. The whole time the entire crew was upbeat and chipper. I was told that the crews at A1 are cherry-picked from elsewhere, they hire the best guys from other companies. I absolutely believe it. I kicked down $140 in tips for the guys, I could not have been happier. They even take credit cards, so you can get the miles. Moving is never fun, or cheap, but these guys totally restored my faith that they are good companies out there and I would never take my business (or my recommendation) elsewhere. A1 Movers rocks.

Hired on Thumbtack

Quentin and his team moved my 5+ bedroom home from Potomac MD to Daytona FL without a hitch. The pricing was reasonable and they always kept me updated with the status of my move. None of my furniture was damaged and they protected my carpets and hardwood floors. They are by far the most professional and efficient movers I have ever had. Thanks Quentin I will spread the word of your teams remarkable service!!!
