Description of Work: I had a local move from one house to another approx 30 mins away. Everything was great except I did notice after the fact that some of our furniture was damaged. Unfortunately, due to the hectic nature of moving day, I didn't notice at the time and therefore could not bring it to their attention. Our couch has a wooden base that is chipped in a few places. Also they took apart and put together a bed, but put it back together completely wrong. Again, I didn't notice until about an hour after they left, so not only did I have to redo the bed myself, but I also paid for an additional 30 minutes or so ($65) just to have them do the work incorrectly. Otherwise, the guys were nice and relatively knowledgable. In total it took about 6-7 hours to complete.

Description of Work: I've used them twice now, and also recommended them to a friend. I and my friend both thought their service was superb, in every way. I couldn't find a better moving service if I tried. A-1 Moving was used by me and my friend for local moving only.

Description of Work: The gentleman from A1 moved us a short distance from Rural Hall to King, North Carolina. They were very professional and were able to move tricky furniture into tricky layouts in our new house. They worked quickly and efficiently.

Description of Work: I contacted A-1 to move a piano from CLT to INT. He was very honest in saying it would cost me less to hire someone there, and he offered to rent me his equipment to make it affordable to purchase the piano. I decided to wait on the purchase, so I didn't use A-1 services. He was very helpful

What a wonderful company. From the beginning of the process (i.e. setting appoinment for estimate) to the end (i.e. asking us if everything was in the right place, collecting payment) these guys were nothing but a pleasure and ease to work with on a move. They accomadated us by rescheulding since our home was not ready to be moved into, scheduled for a Sunday move. They were on time, 8:58am for the 9;00am appointment. Doug worked quickly to assign tasks to his (5) men. The men were extreamly courteous, handled our possessions with care, and mild manner. If they did not know the answer, they asked us. Once we arrived at the house to unload, they worked quickly to get things in place. Matter of fact, they placed felt on the bottom of our furniture for us in an effort to not damage our floors. Such a great experience for us. We would use them again and highly recommend Doug and his crew for moving. Very professional, courteous, hard-working group of men.
Description of Work: They moved our 3 bedroom/2 bath house and our 10X10 storage unit in around 8 hours (including packing). We moved from Kernersville, NC to Winston-Salem, NC.

A1 Moving moved me multiple times and a couple of times with very short notice from me..everything went great and I could not have asked for anything better..they really took great care of all of my stuff every time. And the pricing cant be beat. I would tell anyone to use their services if they want a top quality job done and someone that really takes care of their customers property.
Description of Work: A1 moving has moved me on three different occasions and each time they did an excellent job in all areas and with no broken items..They have also did some small moves for me as well...They did an emergency move for me with less than an hours notice and did great!

Their price per hour was less than a competitor's, but time was estimated to be 6 hours more than the competitor's estimate. So I ended up going with the competitor. I wish I had not, because the other company went 3 hours over their estimate and I wasn't terribly pleased with their service. A1 had a lot of good recommendations on Angie's List; the competitor had good recommendations, but just much less of a history (I think only 1 or 2 comments). If I had to do it again I would choose A1 instead.

The truck and crew arrived about 10 minutes before the stated hour, surveyed the items to be moved and began work. And they worked! The fee was by the hour and they earned every penny. Each piece of furniture or other item was appropriately wrapped in padding or clear moving wrap. The items were carefully put into the truck and lashed down so nothing would shift in transit. The house out of which were were moving is a split-level on a hill, but everything was moved out without fuss. When we arrived in Winston-Salem, everything was put into the house precisely where I asked. All in all, a very professional, efficient and effective job done with courtesy within the stated estimate.
Description of Work: A1 Moving moved the furniture from a four-bedroom house and some boxes about 90 miles within North Carolina. The furniture included a console piano. A washer and dryer, a table saw, and some ladders were also moved. We had done most of our packing and had moved many of those boxes, but the movers felt it would be appropriate to pack some items inside cabinets and did so.

We had such an excellent experience with A-1 Moving. They delivered boxes to our house with no delivery charged. I couldn't believe how quickly and carefully they moved everything. The bill ended up being HALF of what I'd budgeted for based on previous moves. They will absolutely be doing my next move. Don't look anywhere else. These guys are the best.
Description of Work: I packed everything up. They loaded/unloaded and drove the truck.

We rented a U-Haul truck and hired a worker to help us move all our big items in one day. A-1 brought two highly experienced movers with a lot of moving gear. They showed up exactly at the agreed time, surveyed the house, and we discussed how to organize the move; that is, what items had priority, how much time/money they thought it would take, etc. We didn't want them to move everything, but rather the bigger things that we couldn't handle ourselves. They were extremely professional. They accomodated all our requests and worked intensely and efficiently for 4 hours, and were very careful with our furniture. We didn't have the budget to have a moving company take care of all our stuff, but what we spent on A-1 was worth every penny.
Description of Work: A-1 helped us move from Clemmons to Winston-Salem. We hauled lots of boxes and small items ourselves throughout several days, but they took care of our bigger furniture, including a piano, a freezer, a super heavy corner piece, two large sofas, two large bookcases, tables, chests, desks, etc.

When our nest emptied we decided to downsize and move closer to our jobs. The house we had lived in for 15 years sold in a matter of days and we found ourselves needing to move much more quickly than we had anticipated. Fortunately we were able to get an apartment in the gated community of our dreams. We had no experience with local movers and asked the staff at the apartment complex if they could recommended one. They gave us a brochure on A-1 Moving. A-1 came out the same day I called and gave us an estimate on the move. They were wonderful to explain every thing to us. As they were going through to make their estimate they saw a pack of packing boxes in our utility building that we had bought from a discout store and they said they would be happy to use those first to save us a little money. We were also still in the process of sorting stuff to get rid of and they said if we wanted them to, they could haul off items to be donated, recycled, or discarded. We explained that we both had health issues and would not be able to help much but they assured us we would not need to do anything other than answer questions they might have about what was moving to the apartment or being donated or discarded. They were true to their word on EVERYTHING, including their estimate. They arrived when they said they would. They worked hard and efficiently. They were careful and respectful. They put down paper runners to protect the carpet. They even brought donuts and coffee the day we moved into the apartment; it was kind of like a party. They took everything in, unpacked it, and worked with our decorator to get everything in its place. They put the beds back together, placed the rugs, the furniture, lamps, accents, dishes in the cabinets, etc. When they finished, we had a fully functioning livable home but, alas, we had more stuff than would fit in the smaller space. However, we had anticipated this and had rented an onsite garage for the overflow. Over the next several months we continued to sort and in July all that was left in the garage were things we wanted to get rid of. Again, we called A-1 and they came and hauled off everything in the garage. They have helped us so much. And we do so very much appreciate their kindness and professionalism. I carry their business card around with me where ever I go just so I can give it to someone if anyone indicates to me that they plan to move.
Description of Work: A-1 moved us from a 1800sq ft, 3 bedroom, house in Pinnacle, NC to a 1200sq ft, 2 bedroom, 2nd story walk-up apartment in Winston-Salem, NC. This was a full service move; they packed our stuff, loaded it on their trucks, took it to the new location, unloaded (up 19 stairs), unpacked, put things in their place, and hauled away the packing material. We stored over-flow items in a rented garage and they recently returned and hauled off all the discards.
