The drivers showed up ready to go. It was an incredibly hot day but Jason, Dave, and Jeremy stayed polite and professional the entire time. Told me to just relax and they handled everything perfectly. Moved in an efficient timely manner. Would 100% recommend to anyone needing movers.

I own a lot of artwork under glass. The packers and movers could not have done a better job. Everything arrived safely. This is a hard working, caring company. They did a 5 plus star job!

Negative AIM Moving Services Reviews

Showed up late let our cat out didn't seem to care about it we were charged extra money at the billing time that we were told we wouldn't be just scammers plain and simple. Should have hired people off the street.

Yelp

I was quoted a price in the $700 range. Final cost was in excess of $900 for a local move. Shocked and disappointed at the billing; no follow up from the office.

Yelp

I was told my move would be in the $700 range. After the move, bill was over $900 with no explanation and no follow up to my complaint. Never recommending this company.
