Recent reviews
They moved a baby grand piano for me and had a pretty challenging flight of stairs to contend with getting it out. They were all extremely professional, friendly, and knowledgeable.
We called several companies, but Amenity was the most affordable. They picked up the piano, brought it safely and well wrapped, installed it, and helped move another piano.

My closing was delayed, and Amenity was very flexible about moving my date and accommodating my needs. The movers were hardworking, courteous, respectful, and careful with my home and belongings.

Called for an estimate to pack a moving truck. The person answering said it was risky and was unsure whether they could do it, so I ended the conversation.

I emailed and called twice over two weeks but never heard back. Guess they don't want our business.

Pleasant on the phone, but poor about calling you back. Wasn't able to use their service since no one called back.
