Excellent service with experienced employees. No damage and job completed as indicated.
I can’t thank Erin enough for getting me out of a last-minute jam. He called personally to confirm the next day, and his three-man crew was efficient, safe, and careful with our furniture.
The movers were very efficient and respectful of my things. The cost was reasonable. I'd definitely recommend Ace as a moving company.
Negative Ace Van & Storage Reviews
Upon delivery, virtually every piece of furniture and our bikes were scratched, several boxes were lost or not delivered, and one box's contents were entirely broken.
Movers broke a table and hooked up a washer incorrectly, causing water damage to the ceiling. When we called, a representative was rude and called my mother a liar.
Yelp
Over 40% of my belongings were missing, and many furniture pieces were damaged. I also felt I was treated very poorly.
