Terrible. They showed up late. Spent most of the morning carrying one box at a time and socializing. The lead guy spent more time on his phone than I think moving. At one time I saw him carrying a very large piece of furniture while talking on his phone. As they were moving stuff out they damaged the wall which I had to quickly repair and broke a light bulb which I had to replace - all without even telling me they had done it. They moved extremely slow and all over the house. Instead of taking one room at a time, they would take stuff from one room and move to another and back and forth. They wasted so much time, I had to move back my closing time twice because of them. Then they ran out of room in the truck and I had to wait another hour for a second truck. They were unprepared, unprofessional, and just a total lack of respect for my time and possessions. I think they knew they damaged my kitchen table because they would have seen it when they put the top back on the table but never said anything to me. I think speaks volumes to the character of the movers this company hires; not to mention them not saying anything earlier about the damage to the house I was moving out of. I think they packed the truck so full trying to get it all in one load that they didn't protect anything. As I'm slowly unpacking and putting stuff away, I have lost count of how many pieces of my furniture has been damaged. My kitchen table which is solid oak which has the leaf underneath. They completely destroyed the mechanism for getting the leaf from underneath the table to the top. It's completely useless now. My large curio cabinet which they took care in wrapping around the glass, damaged the base of the unit. My exercise bike, they broke off the heart rate monitor on the handle bar that I can't even use it now. I'm finding so much damage that it will cost me more to replace or repair the items than I paid for the moving.

Brandon & crew did an incredible job packing our house and moving us 1000 miles away from WI. The crew was polite, friendly, and most of all careful! They completed the packing job efficiently and actually arrived at our new home FASTER than they quoted! We've done 2 other cross-country moves, and A1's service was far superior to both of the other companies we worked with. They also offer the added bonus of just moving YOUR stuff so it comes direct to you without stops to load / unload other move jobs AND they are so easy to work with. Plus their price was very competitive. Highly recommend.
Description of Work: Packed & moved our household from Madison, WI to Chapel Hill, NC.

I think maybe the guy thought that we were tired from moving and exhausted and could get away with charging way more than what he said it would be. He charged us the time it took him to drive from his last job to his home, which I don't even know where his job was. They had given us a quote over the phone, based on what we had told them it would take 2 hours and, I don't know I think I have it written down. It took them 2 1/2 hours so not that much outside of the quote. They said that was going to be about $200 and it ended up being over $500. It also took them a really long time to drive between the two houses. We were in our regular car, they were in the truck. It took us 20 minutes and it took them 55 minutes and we got charged for all of those 55 minutes. I don't know what they were doing. He's like, it's hard driving a truck, but it was all highway. They didn't break anything. We had them move a dresser and a desk, we moved all the boxes ourselves.

Men worked hard and fast. Problem was cost. I purchase an Angie's list's deal of $300 for $150. The young men arrived about 8:00 AM and worked until about 10:30 AM. The cost was $600. What I did not know is that they had to travel 2+ hours and I had to pay that. I was not aware of the travel costs. l think such information should given to the purchaser prior to selling it.

Description of Work: Movers were extremely efficient, courteous, & accommodating. They arrived on time and had the truck loaded in less than an hour, which included moving a few heavy items within my home. A slight misunderstanding of a balance charge was corrected immediately to my satisfaction. The only reason I would not used them again is that their office is outside of my city and their regular hourly fees would have included travel time, so without the Angie's list offer, the service would have been more costly. However, A-1 is an excellent company of high integrity, and if they were in my area, I would use them again.

It went great! They arrived on time, if not a bit early, and went straight to work. They were very professional and very polite, and even offered to move anything additional I might have wanted. They even offered to put a bed skirt under the mattress they moved. The cost of the move included the time they spent traveling to the house. It may seem like an expense to move these few things, but it was so worth it!
Description of Work: Moved our piano from one room into another, brought a king-size memory foam mattress upstairs from basement, and moved a very heavy work table up from a basement room into the garage, positioning it in a tight spot.

Overall it went very well. They arrived promptly and quickly got to work. They worked steadily and efficiently. They were great kids and young men who were friendly, outgoing and helpful. When we had them move a heavy china hutch up stairs and then back down when we changed our minds, they said no problem and got right to it. They were very careful and got through the move without breaking anything. Our cost was a bit higher than estimate, but that was due to a couple of issues with the storage unit (couldn't get their truck close the storage unit and had to use dollies) and the fact that we had a bit more at the house than we thought when I talked with them. This required a second trip which added some transit time, plus the time associated with the addition stuff. I would recommend them without hesitation.
Description of Work: They loaded our possessions from 4 sites (2 storage units and 1+ home) and transported them and unloaded them at our new home.

The service was great, they were very professional and very courteous.
Description of Work: They moved my 29 year old daughter out of the house and also moved her friend to a new house. They charged for travel time here as well as travel time on the way back. It was however for moving two different people.

Brandon and his assistant (sorry I can't remember his name) actually arrived ahead of schedule, which work perfectly for me. After a short walk through, the two of them went right to work. Initially, I was a little concerned when told it would be done on an hourly rate but, once they got to work my concerns quickly vanished. They worked incredibly effeciently and everything was loaded in an hour. From start to finish it tood 2.25 hours (which included a 15 minute drive to the storage unit). Having retired from the military, I've dealt with plenty of movers and I have to say these two were very impressive. I was extremely pleased with both their professionalism and the efficiency in which they worked. I would HIGHLY RECOMMEND A-1 MOVERS. Once I know exactly where I'll be settling (Madison or Minneapolis) I will definitely contact A-1 for a quote.

They came up from Praire du Sac, WI & arrived at 8:00AM and were loaded by 9:00 (I'd packed pretty well!). They drove to Decorah, about 170 miles, unloaded at two locations and returned home. 12 hours @ $120 per hour.

Brandon was prompt in calling me back for the original estimate, quoted me a fair price for the move (hourly because it was out of state , but discounted because there was another job down there). He was to call me the morning of the move, and did. They were early and asked if they could start our job early. That was fine and they came over. They had to park a ways away, because of parking rules but didn't complain about it. Earlier that morning the Salvation Army had failed to show up for a big pick up (warning: don't rely on the Salvation Army's scheduling, at least not in Chicago). They agreed to move the material to the Salvation Army, before swinging over to my brother's for a delivery, before heading back to Madison. Brandon and Aaron were extremely professional in loading the truck. There were no nicks or scratches on walls or furniture. They worked quickly and constantly, not wasting a minute of the time we were paying for. They made the run to Salvation Army, my brother's and then back to Madison where my wife met them. They unloaded the van quickly and professionally, and charged exactly what they said they would. Our price might seem high, but remember it was most of an apartment, moved to three separate places, including an interstate run. I would recommend them without hesitation and will use them again.
Description of Work: A1 moved the contents of my mother's condo from Glenview, Illinois to Madison. There was significant furniture and boxes, and they made three separate runs: from my mom's to Salvation Army (see below); to my brother's, and then back to Madison.

They showed up on time and then worked their tails off for 6+ hours. I never even saw them take a break. They were friendly, thorough, and good communicators. They moved our furniture carefully and at a fair price.
Description of Work: Drove 2 hours, then picked up a dozen medium to large pieces of furniture from one house, and delivered them to two destinations: one nearby, and one near their starting point.
