"This was the most coordinated and professional move I’ve ever experienced. Working with Jose Was great, he made sure that I was informed about every step of the move and stuck to the initial estimate. Items were securely, packed, and movers were cautious with any larger fragile items. Would not hesitate to use their services again in the future."

"Utilizing All Service Moving for the move was a very positive experience. They had good communication, answering several questions prior to the move and did a final confirmation just prior to the move date. As for the physical move itself, Jose, Abraham, and Alberto were polite, diligent, and careful moving the many items, and managed to complete the move more quickly than anticipated."

"We had a baby grand piano moved by Milos and his crew. Wow is an understatement of the care and attention they showed when they moved the piano! Being military, we have moved quite frequently and have seen many movers. This was by far the most professional, detailed movers we’ve ever seen. We were super impressed with their service. Milos was also great and responsive to scheduling the appointment. You can’t go wrong with Red Carpet Moving, and we will be using them again should we need anything moved."

"Abba showed up only a few minutes late due to traffic to start the move, but they called ahead of time to let us know. The movers were very friendly and started working immediately. They securely wrapped or boxed all furniture, mirrors, and pictures.
Only one piece of furniture was damaged: a small desk leg was broken. It was raining and the mover slipped on the truck. Abba offered to send someone out to fix it or give us the money it would cost to fix it. We took the money and fixed it ourselves. Luckily all it took was some epoxy. It wasn't a very expensive desk, so since I was able to fix the leg, my wife overlooked the incident.
I really only have 2 complaints about the experience. We were told by the estimator that we didn't have to empty our dressers as the movers would move them with the clothing in them. When the movers started working, they said the dressers would be too heavy and they would have to empty them. This cost time and packing material, neither of which are free. My second complaint is that the estimator severely underestimated the amount and cost of packing materials needed. The quote was for $94, but the final cost of materials was nearly $400. This easy even after the foreman claimed he cut me a break/didn't charge me for some of the materials. I would warn and caution anyone hiring a mover to clarify during the estimation how much packing materials will really be needed.
Bottom line, the movers were friendly and worked hard, and only damage one piece of furniture due to an accident. We would certainly recommend Abba to be considered for a move job and would ourselves consider using them again.

Moving questions, answered by experts

Moving across state lines is a similar process to moving within a state. Packing, loading, and unloading of trucks will follow the same process. The primary difference is during transportation, where your belongings may be loaded onto a dedicated moving truck or combined with other shipments, depending on the distance. Your moving company will offer tracking and ongoing communication of your boxes.   

No, not tipping movers isn’t considered rude. Tipping is optional, not expected. There are plenty of alternative ways to show your appreciation without tipping.

Using moving pods is generally cheaper than hiring a full-service moving company, primarily because you handle the packing and loading yourself, which eliminates labor costs. The cost savings are most significant for long-distance or cross-country moves; for local moves, hiring a moving company might be the more economical option. Renting and shipping moving pods can cost between $2,000 and $5,000, depending on factors like distance, the number of containers, and the weight of your items. Some services also charge a monthly rental fee of $75 to $200. In comparison, hiring a professional moving company for a long-distance move typically costs between $2,700 and $10,000.

Apartments come with strict regulations about what pets are allowed, so check before you sign a lease. If you have a fish or reptile, wait to move them until everything is set up and you’re ready to do a special move just for them and their aquarium/terrarium.

For a dog or cat, be sure you have a carrier before the move. On moving day, it’s best to designate a “safe room” or even a crate for your pet to help them get used to the new space. Keep everything they need in the safe room, and let them explore the rest of the apartment in their own time.

The ideal budget for moving out of state largely depends on your location, the number of rooms you need to move, and how far your final destination is. On average, homeowners spend a little over $1,700 on their move.
