Review Analysis

Customers rave about All My Sons Moving & Storage for their efficient service, respectful staff, careful handling, and quick moving process. Many mention friendly movers who take extra care of belongings, helping to reduce stress on moving day. On the downside, over half report experiencing unexpected charges, furniture damage, or delayed delivery.

Reports of a bait-and-switch on pricing and last-minute cost hikes are frequent, with some customers calling out unclear terms or billing errors. While movers on-site often get praise for professionalism and speed, complaints about broken items, property damage, and missed time windows are widespread. Compared to other moving companies, All My Sons stands out for hard-working crews and positive personal interactions, but issues with transparent pricing, timely communication, and claim resolution leave many dissatisfied. Out of 451 reviews, only 47% are positive, indicating that while many find the actual moving teams reliable and helpful, persistent problems with costs and handling customer complaints overshadow these strengths.

Review Analysis

Choosing Fallon Moving & Storage means meeting a team that often delivers quick, careful moves with professional, polite crews. Customers commend their efficient service, clear communication, and the attention paid to valuables during the moving process. Over sixty percent of the 227 reviews highlight their reliability and effective handling as a standout compared to many competitors.

Still, feedback identifies problems that can’t be ignored: many negative reviews discuss items damaged during the move, unexpected additional charges, and delivery or arrival delays. Claims of scratched furniture, broken items, and compensation issues are recurring themes in complaints. While many customers find Fallon’s pricing transparent and the service dependable, a notable portion express concern about communication gaps and the accuracy of time and cost estimates. Fallon earns strong praise for professionalism and moving speed, but damage to items and poor complaint response remain pain points. This mix places Fallon above many moving companies for service quality and courteous staff, but those considering Fallon should stay alert to potential risks regarding item safety and keep communication clear throughout their move.

FAQs

What else should you know about moving out of state?

A moving company helping you move out of Connecticut must be properly licensed and have a U.S. Department of Transportation number. Of course, all the Avon movers we’ve included on this list have everything in order, but you can check for yourself on the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration’s database.

If you’re moving from one state to another, you’ll want to familiarize yourself with the Your Rights and Responsibilities When You Move document from the FMCSA.

Should I use a local company or a national company when moving from Avon?

If you’re moving across town, a local moving company in Avon is going to be the most cost-effective approach. If you’re moving out of Connecticut, using a national moving company like Safeway Moving comes with more experience. That experience — along with the increased mileage — typically means higher costs than with local relocations.

When is the cheapest time of year to move away from Avon?

Moving companies in Avon are usually slower in November and December due to the holidays and kids being in school, so you can negotiate with a mover more during those months and save some money.

What are the cheapest ways to move out of Avon?

DIY moving will always be cheaper, especially when moving within 50 miles of Avon. The cheapest options for moving out of Avon are usually renting a moving truck like U-Haul or a moving container like PODS. We’ve also got a helpful guide if you’re looking for the cheapest ways to move out of state.
