About
We’re a small, family-owned moving company, and we treat every customer like one of our own. With 27 years in business and a team of 6 experienced movers, we bring the care, skill, and consistency that many larger companies simply can’t match.
We’re fully insured for your protection and come prepared with everything needed for a safe, efficient move: truck, pads, stretch wrap to protect your furniture, and more. We handle local and long-distance moves, including piano moving.
What we enjoy most is helping people—meeting new customers, easing the stress of moving, and seeing new places along the way. If you’re looking for movers who truly care about your belongings and your experience, we’d be happy to help with your next move.

I had the pleasure of working with Carlos for my move from Texas to Arizona, and I couldn't be happier with the experience.
He handled everything from disassembling my furniture to transporting it safely and reassembling it in my new home with outstanding professionalism. He moved all of my belongings 1,300 miles safely and completed the entire move in just two days, without a single item being damaged.
Carlos was punctual, careful, reliable, and offered very fair pricing. He made the entire moving process smooth and completely stress-free.
I highly recommend Carlos to anyone looking for a true professional. I would definitely hire him again!

Carlos was fantastic! I would hire him and his team again and I highly recommend him to anyone who is needing to move, especially if it’s across country! He and his team showed up on time, they loaded my entire one bedroom apt in Austin TX into their moving truck and drove it all the way up to Pittsburgh PA. They literally did all the loading and unloading. He is very responsive and his prices can’t be beat. It was a pleasure to work with him. If you need to move, please hire him!!
Details: 1 bedroom home • 11 - 20 boxes • Load via stairs • 1,000 - 2,000 miles

Carlos moved a piano for me and did an excellent job. He had all the tools he needed to do the job correctly and went above and beyond to ensure the piano and my floors were protected during the entire process. If I need something moved in the future I will have no reservations using A-Star again and would highly recommend them to my friends.
Details: Upright • No change in floors to load the piano • No change in floors to unload the piano • 31 - 50 miles
