Review Analysis
Reliable when it counts, but not without stumbling blocks—A-1 Allstate Movers received input from 147 reviewers, with 54% leaving positive impressions. Many praised the swift, professional crews, consistent care for belongings, and wallet-friendly rates. Customers especially appreciated how staff communicated and moved items efficiently, treating furniture with respect.
Yet, problems came up often: damaged property, late arrivals, and unpredictable timing surfaced in nearly 44% of responses. Feedback points to unresolved claims and slow or absent compensation after damages as frequent sources of frustration. Compared to other moving services, A-1 Allstate stands out for fast, careful service and fair costs, but recurring issues with damage and schedule reliability hold it back from top-tier status. This input suggests those needing speedy, affordable moves may be satisfied—if they’re willing to risk follow-up hassles.
