Description of Work: Overall they did ok, but the response to emails was a bit slow and often I needed to chase or ask follow up. Overall I was very happy right until the end when I feel that they stung me for something that their estimator should have picked up on when compiling the quote and also I felt their response to my concerns was not very caring. I am still to receive my belongs so the proof of the pudding will be when I check the condition everything arrives in.

Description of Work: There was a fire in my condo and I needed to pack up all of the contents in my condo and place them in air-conditioned storage during the "rebuild" of my apartment. My Angie's List inquiry was responded to promptly and Michael came to my apartment, gave me an estimate and explained each step of the process. I needed to do all of this quickly and we scheduled 2 days in the following week. There was a wonderful, professional 4 man crew -- 2 packers and 2 movers. They worked really hard, handled each item with care and knowledgably and moved out my possessions, which are now being kept in their storage facility on a month-to month basis. I will contact them when the rebuild is completed, and they will move everything back into my apartment.

Overall, it was a smooth process and they were able to come out with little notice. I was extremely pleased overall with this move and the level of quality and professionalism shown. Moving is always a miserable experience and Alvino and his team made it as painless as possible.
Description of Work: Alvino and his crew arrived on time and worked tirelessly throughout the day. They were excellent and I would highly recommend Alvino for future moves, in fact I'll be using them again this summer.

I contacted Atlas local moving representatives A-1 Fargo because I had used them a year ago for a small move and I was really impressed with the service, efficiency and professionalism of the movers. I reached out to them and immediate was contacted by the local representative. I didn't proceed with A-1 Fargo because the quote, based on weight, was over $1,800 to move approximately 6,000 lbs of household items. The other quote I received from a second mover was an hourly rate whose initial estimate was almost a $1,000 cheaper. I chose the other mover and ultimately saved $1,300 by hiring them instead of A-1 Fargo.

This client was moving 6,000 lbs from a high rise apartment with an extra pick up at a mini warehouse some 15-20 miles away and then move everything 30 miles up the road for only $500.00. You got a really great deal.

It went very smoothly. I forgot to unscrew some things that were mounted in our kitchen, like a magnetic knive rack and the bracket that held our fire extinguisher. The fire extinguisher was packed but not the wall mounted bracket. It would be good to remember to do those things ahead of time. There were four men packing us and they worked very fast so it was impossible to keep track of what was happening, and 'supervise' as I had expected, so it is important to have everything as organized and sorted as possible beforehand, to make it easier to find things at the other end. The boxes were all well labeled as to where they came from, however. We were very pleased with everything, and they sent us money back afterwards, that we didn't expect, because our shipping weight was less than the estimate. Very honest people.
Description of Work: We moved from Miami, Fl, to Charlotte, Nc. We received an estimate to pack and move our 1700 square foot house and the contents of a two car garage (used for storage not parking cars) and the contents of a separate storage unit. They were able to schedule us earlier than we expected to move as our plans changed. They packed all our belongings in one day, and loaded the truck the next day, including going to our storage unit and getting our stuff from there and loading it. The truck delivered our belongings when were were told to expect it, and everything was unloaded. The boxes and furniture were put where we said we wanted them to go.

Description of Work: The representative was very professional and prompt. The only reason we didn't use these was because our shipment was small and not worth the minimum $2,000 fee. I have contracted with a small shipper and if it works out I will post them to Angie's list with a recommendation.

This client must have miss understood our sales representative. We do not have a $2,000.00 minimum on any move. Our only minimum is a 2000 lb. minimum and this applies only on interstate shipments. We apologize for the miss understanding.

They were very disappointing. They came out and gave me a quote ($15,000) saying that they can handle my move. They gave me a date and then when they got to the office a couple of days later they called me to say they could not get a truck for almost two months for the load. It turns out there a quote on top of that for several thousand dollars. Then I ended up not using the move.

Response from A-1 Fargo Van & Storage Inc
Our sales person explained there appeared to be a language barrier with the customer on this move. This was a full tractor trailer to Texas. Our estimate was for $9955.78 not $15,000.00 as stated by the member. Our salesman also delivered free boxes to the shipper. Our estimate was on 6/7/11 and the shipper cancelled the move on 6/9/11. This move was set for pick up on 6/13/11 with a delivery of 6/20-27 at the latest by our dispatch department, not 2 months later.

Their quote was almost identical to another national company. They were reliable, coming on the dates promised and came early each morning and stayed til 5. Their workers were very courteous and professional. As we had done a good deal of the packing ourselves, they lowered the price as they had promised. They arrived to our new home on the date promised, a mere 3 days after they packed everything up in Miami. We have unpacked and found that our possessions are all intact. We would definitely recommend A-1 and would absolutely use them again for another move!
Description of Work: A-1 Fargo moved us from Miami, Florida to New Jersey. They packed all of our possessions that we had not packed ourselves. While we did pack a significant amount in order to save money, they still packed a great deal, as we were moving from a very large house. They wrapped all breakables extremely well and took great care with our furniture.

This company is okay I guess. I think they have kept raising their rates so they certainly could improve their prices in my personal opinion. Other than that, they do consistently provide me with a safe place to store my items and they have done what they have promised. I am not sure how much longer I will continue to use them if they keep raising their rates so if they can lower their prices, I would have no major problem with them.
Description of Work: I store a little bit of everything with this company. I rent a storage room and pay them monthly so that I can store items that do not fit in my home.
