Today we have become a very reputable moving company in the St. Louis area with 1000's of moves under our belt. Along the way, we have developed highly efficient, friendly, and safe staff members that take pride in the work that they perform. All of our crews are uniformed, full time employees as we do not use day laborers. Many of our customers are repeat customers or have been referred to us by a friend or family member who has used our services. We are very often stopped by neighbors to our clients and asked for information about our company because they are impressed at how fast and friendly we are on the job site.

At Arch Moving we pride ourselves on Customer Service, Transparency, and Hard Work! Through these three things we are are able to offer some of the most competitive rates in town while still providing our customers with an A+ moving experience. Our reputation on Google, Facebook, Yelp, and of course Angie's List speaks for itself! Give us a call today, and we would be more than happy to see if our company can fill your moving needs!

"I have worked with Arch Moving 2 times in the past, and so when I hired them again I had expected similar service. Unfortunately, under new management I did not experience a level of customer service I would expect. They increased their fees (first for the truck there is now a $75 fee), and the moving rates for a two man team were 160/hour. I could have swallowed that if they had sent an experienced two man crew, but one of the movers was a young person who clearly had little to no experience and could barely manage the heavier items. At these rates that was hard to understand. They then broke a small glass window, and I was told by the mover it would be covered. When I spoke with the claims department they told me it is not covered per the Missouri Dept of Transport, meaning they don't legally have to cover the damage so they won't. This is not the customer service I would expect at these prices. I would not recommend, and I will never use them again."

"I would never ever hire this moving company again. First of all the sales person ( good ole Gary ) didn’t even bother to give me a follow up call to see how everything went after spending $10,000. You would think that he would at least make a follow up call but he didn’t and here’s the reason why: ( he knew what they were going to do and he didn’t have the decency to tell me he just wanted the money ) They arrived at my house and packed everything up in one truck very nicely. I personally packed all of my stuff and I personally wrapped all of my furniture in blankets and stretch wrap. I put cardboard corners on all the legs of my furniture. They brought the truck back to the warehouse and they unloaded the truck in the warehouse ( the more they mess with and handle your stuff well you know ) and then they contacted another mover out of Chicago to come pick my stuff up which required them to reload it in another truck. This was not told to me. Upon reloading the other truck, ( I’m not there so let’s party ) they decided to unwrap some of my furniture, yank the legs off and throw it in boxes. The furniture was filled with stuff in the drawers. One of the pieces had Makeup in it and all exploded - they threw it into a bag and taped it up and handed it to me at my new home in a ball of a grocery bag with a mile of duct tape !!! THANK YOU The mirrored furniture was all cracked. All of the GLASS knobs were broken. I CUT MYSELF ON ONE DRAWER - trying to remove items. Much of my boxes were dented because they put so many things on top because they want to make sure that they fill that truck and get every teeny square inch packed in so they can make more money $$$$. I mean, 2 inches of space can’t be left uncrammed. The side tables for my bedroom were tossed and thrown upside down. They have chips of paint, missing the drawers do not slide in. These were also wrapped in blankets saran wrapped, and they had leg corners. They didn’t care they were small and they could throw them. And they did. I transported my trike with them and you should’ve seen how they unloaded it from the truck. It got to the point where three men were not enough, and I had to get involved and help them get it off the ramp. Had I not been there to WATCH THEM they would’ve surely scratched the tailpipes. They behaved because I was there. They do not care about you after they get your money !!!!! Stay away from this Mover and this company !!! Trust me when I tell you you have much much better options. I made the mistake of thinking that this was a very fine long standing St. Louis Company. It’s far from it."

No instate moves. Must leave state. Long Distance Moving Carrier serving 25 states, in business since 2006. Family owned and operated. Not a broker, Agent or referral service. We understand moving can be stressful, and we’re here to make sure you get the help you need and deserve. We are the top company in this industry, so you don’t have to worry about the “guess work” of finding the right long-distance moving company. You already found the BEST! Since 2006 we have stayed the path of 100 percent customer satisfaction. This achievement illustrates the significant focus Move Quick has on our customers.

"In spite of numerous negative reviews about Move Quick, Inc., I opted to hire this company for my move from West Virginia to Los Angeles. I spoke to Phillip, the manager/owner, who convinced me that the posted complaints had been resolved and were exaggerations. However, I, too, was subjected to an exaggerated low bid in order to snag my business. I, too, experience problems with the pick up and the delivery dates. The movers were a day late in arriving, then quoted me a 67% increase in price, from $3,100 to $5,200. BUT I was stuck. The company already had my deposit money. Also, I was charged for one flight of stairs and an exaggerated inaccurate measurement of my front door to the truck. I had been told there was no fee for one flight. I had provided exact measurements for the items in my two rooms of furniture. True, I had 51 boxes instead of 40 but that did not warrant such an increase in price, 67% almost $2,000. Delivery was also problematic. I had told Move Quick, Inc. that I would be at my new home 25 days after the pick up, October 30, 2019. That should have been more than enough time for any truck to drive cross country. They made me wait until December 4, 2020, a total of 25 days to drive 2,400 miles. I made the drive solo in 5 days. Communication with the company once they have your money is near to impossible. It took threats and 6 days for Philip to respond. He then provided an insignificant $75 discount. My recommendation: go with a larger company than can provide an accurate estimate and deliver within a reasonable time. Also, use a company that uses the industry standard of moving cost based on the weight of your items. Don’t let Phillip tell you his method of charging based on volume is better. No one else does this, for a reason. Other estimates I had received were in the $3,700 range.I should have Booked Elsewhere!”"

"Received quote and paid $2429.90 deposit. 1 week before scheduled pickup, they called and re-assessed the number of items in the house and bumped up the estimate by $4149. I cancelled the service because I had donated 25% of my house to charity and there were less items to move. However, they did not return my deposit of $2429.90 because they said that I did not cancel in time. They have pulled the bait and switch routine on others (B&B complaints).

Piano Moving questions, answered by experts

Unfortunately, moving scammers exist, so it’s important to thoroughly vet your moving company before scheduling a service date. Your moving company is likely legitimate if the offer fits within the average cost range, they provide proper contracts and moving insurance, don’t require a large deposit, and have several positive and recent online reviews from previous customers. Feel free to request previous customer information from the moving service and contact them to inquire about their experience to ease any lingering concerns.

You should book your moving company as far in advance as possible, at least two months or more. This is especially important if you're moving during the summer months, which are the peak moving season. This will help you save money on unexpected expenses and the stress that comes with trying to find a mover, which can be harder during certain months of the year.

A reasonable moving budget for local moves is $880 to $2,540 , while you can expect long-distance moves to cost between $2,700 to $10,000 , depending on distance, house size, and other cost factors. You can calculate your relocation budget by totaling the cost of your moving services, such as renting a moving truck, hiring professional movers, and packing services.

This depends on your specific needs and budget. If you’re looking for the most cost-effective way to ship furniture, a self-moving service that provides pods may be your best option. If cost isn’t an issue and you’re more concerned with the security of your items, you may want to hire a white-glove furniture delivery company with ironclad insurance policies to help.

The average cost to hire movers is between $920 and $2,530 for local moves and $2,700 to $10,000 for long-distance moves. The number of movers you need, the total mileage you’re moving, your moving date, and ease of access to your home all factor into the bottom line. 

For example, if you only need one or two movers, you can expect to pay $25 to $50 an hour. However, if you need four or more movers, that charge increases to $100 to $200 an hour. Moving specialty items, like a piano or large aquarium, will incur additional charges.
