Yoseph, Pharaoh, and Ibrahim were absolutely amazing. They were communicative and speedy. I don't think I have seen a team work so efficiently. From start to finish they had our office moved in less time than we even though possible. Very professional, very respectful!

Made arrangements to unload UHaul Box shipped from NH to NC. This company was professional and easy to work with. They confirmed everything a few days before the scheduled move and arrived as promised. Movers treated my belongings with care and placed everything as directed. I highly recommend!!!!

Athens is a fantastic moving company. We hired them to move from one apartment to another within the same complex. They were prompt, professional, thoughtful, respectful, and overall great movers. They went above and beyond to move our property safely and with high quality. I would absolutely hire this moving company again

I recently did a move from Durham, NC to Philadelphia with Ibrahim and Freddie from Athens Moving Experts. Ibrahim and Freddie were extremely professional, kind, thorough, and thoughtful in moving all of our objects. They showed up on time for both the load and the unload, and were very clear in all of their communications with us. They spent the time to carefully wrap all of our belongings, and even with the large amount of objects that we have, we found literally zero damage to anything. Multiple friends and family members of ours made comments about how gentle the movers were when moving objects around tight corners, taking care not to damage the object or the walls. They did a great job of dis-assembling our desks/bed frames/TVs, storing all the tiny fasteners in an organized fashion, and meticulously re-assembling the furniture after unloading them at the new house. Most of all, Ibrahim and Freddie were exceptionally nice and pleasant to be around. They were happy to do whatever it was that we asked of them, and performed the entire job with a really positive attitude. I would highly recommend Athens to anybody who is moving in/around the Raleigh-Durham area. If I could have rated the experience with 6 stars out of 5, I would have!

The team from Athens were fantastic. They were very efficient in packing the vanities which had been unboxed for inspection at Home Depot and delivering them safely to their intended install locations at two different properties about 0.5 mile apart. Definitely worth the cost and would hire again.

Yoseph, Pharaoh, and Omar were AMAZING! They moved a very heavy 102-year old studio piano upstairs -- via a turn, no less. The next time we need something moved, these are our guys!

Alex and Ibrahim did such a fantastic job. Even though it was pouring rain, they still showed up with a smile and great attitudes. They were friendly, efficient, and very careful with their work. This is my second time using Athens, and I remain very impressed.

Monte, Alex, Diante and Khalil were absolutely amazing. They took such great care of all our furniture, as well as all other items they moved. They also did it in record time. Best movers we have ever had and if there were 1000 stars, I would give it to them.

Athens Moving Experts where very unprofessional. My husband and I moved from Orcutt, California to Garner, North Carolina. While the two African American, men, the American man and the one Russian man unloaded my belongings out of the three Pod Containers. They scratched three of my wooden lamps which were wrapped in bubble wrape and bent the wheel frame that my filling cabinet was sitting in while being shipped in the pods. The frame was straight and was not bent before it came out of the storage pod. I also caught the Russian man smoking while on my property when he was suppose to be moving my property. The movers left my property in the wrong rooms when it was clearly marked where it should be left. I spent several days trying find my belongs because they weren't placed where we told the men or where they were marked. I emailed and made claims for over three months to have my belongs replaced or paid for, but the claims agent Zack was rude with me and only offered me $25 for all of the items. He told me that the only thing his company could do was pay me $25 dollars. I ended up having to pay $60 to replace my wheel frame for my filing cabinet. My husband and I urge anyone who is thinking of going with this company to stop before using them to move there belongs!!
Response from Athens Moving Experts, Inc.
"[Member Name Removed], I first want to apologize if at any point I came across as rude as that is never my intention. Additionally, I want to apologize about any damages outside of the file cabinet; since receiving your initial claim on 04/18 that is the only damage which our claims department has photo documentation of. Based on our notes and talking with the crew, we were under the impression that the crew immediately brought the damage to your attention once reaching the file cabinet in the pod. The reason for removing the bent frame was due to the hazard it created while moving the fully loaded cabinet up a flight of stairs. It is standard procedure for our crews to complete a walk through upon completion of every move to ensure belongings are placed exactly where the customer would like them. If you do not mind following up by email with our claims department in regards to which items are not where they belong and any additional damages which have been identified our claims department will be sure to resolve the situation to the best of their ability. I do sincerely apologize and look forward to the opportunity to resolve this for you in a satisfactory manner. Regards, Zach"

I would like to extend my appreciation to Alex and Cam for the great job they did with the recent move. They were professional, efficient, and attentive to all of our requests during the move. The move from the 5th floor of one apartment to a move to a 3rd floor apartment created a few challenges but they worked through them without hesitation. I addition, they were personable and make the entire process stress free. I will definitely recommend Athens to others as well as utilize your services in the future.

Athens Moving Experts were amazing to work with. They helped my wife and I move into our new house. Many people (like myself) dread the actual moving of things piece of 'moving' but Athens made this part of the process a breeze. They were really easy to work with and most importantly treated our things with care. Even when it started to downpour during our move they did everything to make sure our items were dry and taken care of. I would recommend them for anyone in the area that needs moving help!

They deserve 100 starts, 5 is not enough. They saved me so much stress and headache when the heavens decided to open up and storm like nothing i've ever seen ON THE DAY WE WERE MOVING. These guys didn't even blink at the storm, they kept moving and busted their butts. I am forever grateful for them and recommend them to everyone.

Yoseph, Imron, and Pridhvi helped us move from an apartment to a house. They were very efficient and took excellent care of our belongings. When moving everything to the house, they asked where everything should go. They made sure everything was where we wanted it. They were very professional, and I would highly recommend them.
