The process from start to completion was smooth and error-free. The crews were professionals and took care with our processions. They asked questions when in doubt and never assumed. The crews were on time and did what they said they would do. It was clear that the crews were informed on the pre-work and understood the scope of work to be completed. The cost is based upon the time to complete the work and on both days, packing and unpacking, the start and end times were accurately reported and the crews were efficient, not taking breaks or "inflating" the time needed to complete the work. As a result, the final cost was below the estimate. I will wholeheartedly recommend Moving Ahead Services for anyone needing a professional moving company.

Large moving company that torments their little customers! I used them to move and they stored my stuff for two years and charged ne 5000.00. They placed my mattress wrong and ruined it. I noticed that my back was hurting every morning and looked at the mattress and it was caved in. There contract is shady and there claims process is a joke. Watch out for this company. Also, this company has 18 complaints with the BBB. I would not advise using this company. check them out first. I will be contacting the attorney general office regarding there business practices

"[Member Name Removed], we have responded to you multiple times. You've made it clear that you insist on leaving us negative reviews in order to "ruin us" The fact of the matter is that we've been accommodating every step of the way. 1. You submitted your claim 130 days after your move day. You signed a 60-day damage claim agreement. We decided to honor your claim even though it came 70 days after the claim window. 2. We offered you a resolution that far exceeds the $.60/per pound that YOU selected, and signed for. 3. You sent us an email demanding money or that you'd ruin us. Your exact words were "Pay me xxx and I will go away" It's become obvious to our team that you are not negotiating in good faith, and would rather threaten our company with bad reviews and extortion."

We had a very positive experience with Moving Ahead. From the very beginning of the process they were very responsive to my questions. On moving day, the men showed up on time and were very hard working, polite and professional. The company accommodated us when we realized we would have more furniture than originally stated, and they got the move completed in less time than planned. I highly recommend this company and will definitely use them again in the future.

Just completed a somewhat complicated move with Moving Ahead Services requiring 2 move dates and storage in between. The company was professional and helpful and the crew on both ends (Dustin and Shawn and Dustin and James) were extremely careful, thorough, professional and did so many little things to make this stressful experience as good as it could have been! Those guys are really hard workers, great work ethic and I was so happy to have my stuff taken care of by them! Would definitely recommend! Thanks Moving Ahead Services for getting me situated in my new home :-)

It went great. Caleb and Michael were very professional and efficient. They charge by the hour yet they still worked quickly and efficiently. They checked in several times along the way to ensure we were satisfied. We have used a handful of moving companies over the years and sadly, would not recommend ANY of them. I would recommend these guys to anyone. Certainly the best most conscientious movers we have used. They hire high class employees, which, in my opinion, is rare in this industry.

We looked for a company that would crate some painting along with packing half of our home for a local move. We were told they do crate painting but none were crated. The packing was done so poorly I spent 3 days repacking as many boxes as possible. I told them not to pack liquids and no other mover we have every used in our other 8 moves would pack liquids BUT they packed all liquids in various boxes, sideways and upside down. They even packed a deep fryer full of oil. There was no method to their packing, they wrapped 1 tea tin in one sheet of paper (which needed no paper) and then 3 wine glasses were rolled in one sheet of paper and put at a bottom of a box with big kitchen knives and a chess set placed on top (This also means they gathered wine glasses from the dining room, knives from the kitchen and a chess set from the basement to pack in one box. They did not mark contents of 90% of boxes so boxes had to be opened when they were brought off the truck to see what room they needed to go to. If a box was marked it did not help. One box was labeled Large Crock pot but no crock pot was in the box. Another was labeled boy bedroom, this box had garage tools, a band saw blade (Not wrapped in anything) the living room TV remote and cleaning products. Another box was labeled, kitchen food, do not put on truck, it had Tupperware, bowls, crock pot and the key to the band saw from the work room. No boxes were tagged like every other mover we have used. So there was no way to verify if everything was on the truck, and we are missing several items. I asked them to unpack a cabinet in the garage and not to put it in the truck with all the contents inside it. They did not listen and the cabinet was broken on arrival. Boxes that were labeled fragile top load only, were placed in the middle of the truck on the floor. 100+ year old hand painted eggs from my great grandmother were cracked and in dust when I opened the box. We were told it would take about 6 hours to pack our home. After 2 hours we were being told they were almost done. One of the members brought their son (age 10?) with them, whom was left unattended to pack boxes by himself. After four hours they were having us walk through the house to see what else we wanted pack. Even though we said pack everything and did 3 walk throughs asking them to still pack more they left and items still were not packed. They did not bring enough packing supplies and starting using my boxes, tape, markers and scissors. I was told ahead of time that they don't provide blankets and I should purchase 1 blanket per piece of furniture. I was told they were $5.99 per blanket. I checked around and that was a great price so I purchased 1 bundle through them which I was told was 20 blankets. The bundle only contained 12 blankets and I was informed the blankets would now be $14.99 per blanket after the truck was loaded. I had an email that quoted the blankets at $7.99 per blanket but I was told that was a typo and I would be charged $14.99. I was never told I need to purchase tie downs for the truck so I had to run to Home Depot. I was told I needed 12 total. I could only find 2 packages of 4 (8 total) which I purchased but they only used 5 total. When the trucks were deliver to my home and the door was opened my belongs started falling out onto our driveway.

They were terrific! Our four-man team worked non-stop throughout the day to manage our move. I never saw them take a break the entire time, and I accompanied the team to the storage facility. I will definitely be calling them again when we move from storage to our home!

Tony and Avion were the best moving crew ever! They were very respectful of my property and my time. A very positive experience from when I booked my move through the follow-up after the move. If you have a moving need, Moving Ahead Services is the company for you. Donna

We moved about an hour away. We had moved a lot of the small stuff so we used Moving Ahead Services for the heavy stuff like an Elliptical machine, glass table, and washer and dryer. They were on time and came with a positive, pleasant attitude. We had some special requests and they accommodated all of them. Moving is not easy, and they made it as smooth as possible. They were conscientious and didn't leave until everything was to our liking. We were happy we used them and would strongly recommend for any move.

It went ‘great’! The two young men were very courteous and respectful. They wrapped everything very carefully and took great care with the clock. They drove it from Fairfield to Waynesville. Their prices were reasonable also. I would definitely hire them again.

torturous! John the lead man on the job was a habitual liar and broke pricless antiques tried to swindle and get an extra job on the down low and when he got caught in Ohio bad had to repack the one large truck he literally trashed my belongs and I am missing clothes ar supplies antique costumes for my performances and not even half of my belongs made it on the truck as he was making up stories with some of the other helpers to rip me off! I was paying over $16,000 to move from Pittsburgh to Arizona and I only got about $2,500.00 back. Horrible thrives and liars that we treated them with food and drink and only spent less than half the time his supervisor thought he should have spent!! A crook, thief, liar and deserves what he gets for how he treated me......may he know the pain and suffering that he caused this old woman!! He and most of his workers did not wrap the furniture or anything ! That are trash and should live the life of trash for all there days! Hundreds of things missing stolen broken trash! **** is too good for them!!!!!!!! Sincerely, Virginia McPherson Spanik [email protected]

It went well. However, I noticed that one new piece of furniture had nicks on it which were not present before moving. I don't think the movers placed a cloth over it. Overall, they did an excellent job, were hard working, and pleasant.
