We used them for packing + moving, and their price was very reasonable and included all packing materials, which the movers brought in abundance. They called in advance as promised, and were at our place right on time.
Nikki D., Yelp
My other mover canceled on me the night before. Aman immediately got back to me on my online quote request. He had movers to my house in Arizona by the NEXT NIGHT.
Janice B., Yelp
Scheduling was very easy, with very little notice. Adrian, Julian & Eloy were extremely polite, flexible and FAST!!!! They were done in 3.5 hours.

The pickup arrived 4 hours late. My toolbox was missing, and one bike arrived three weeks later; they made me collect it. AVL was $400 cheaper than Allied, but the move was an ordeal.
Hwate T., Yelp
My original quote is 627 ... but with all the 'surcharge' total is 950 or so. I really don't mind the charge, but I just hope they can be honest and upfront with all the charges in the beginning.
C C., Yelp
They damaged the carpet in our home by cutting strips in it with the box cutters. They also tore a hole in the cover of our brand new tempurpedic mattress and banged a big gash in our front door.

They came right within the time frame they said they would and after signing paperwork, they got to work. Unfortunately, they went over my 3hr minimum because they sent a 2-person team instead of the 3-person team.
