America First Moving Reviews

I recently became a customer of America First Moving. And I am here to tell you about the experience that I had. Please take a minute and read this. I booked them to come to my residence and pack up everything. Load it and move it. Unload it and set it up in my new place. Well the crew arrived at my house 10 minutes early so they could get a spot for the truck. Then 4 guys came in and within 3 hours the house was packed labeled and loaded. I was very impressed with that but was scared that they might have packed up too quick and some stuff might get damaged. Well anyways 4 days later (right on time) they arrived at the new house and started unloading the truck. Again the crew came to slay cause they did not play. They had everything in and set up including the beds and the workout equipment. I was very happy with the service and if I ever move again I will be using America First Moving. And I highly recommend them. Thanks Guys.

I recently used America First Moving for my long-distance move, and overall I had a good experience. The company was easy to contact, and the customer service team answered all of my questions before the move. They explained the process clearly and helped me understand what to expect. The movers arrived on time and handled my furniture and boxes with care. Everything was packed well, and nothing was damaged during the move. I also liked that the company stayed in contact with me throughout the process, which made me feel more comfortable.

I recently hired America First Moving for a full household move, and the experience was far better than I expected from a moving company. From the first phone call, their team was professional, organized, and clear about pricing. There were no hidden fees, no last‑minute surprises, and they walked me through every step so I knew exactly what to expect on moving day. The crew arrived on time and immediately got to work. What stood out most was how carefully they handled my belongings. They wrapped furniture, protected fragile items, and double‑checked that everything was labeled correctly. I’ve had movers in the past who rushed or seemed careless, but America First Moving treated my things like they were their own. Even my heavier pieces—like a large dresser and a glass‑top table—were moved without a single scratch.

America First Moving made our move stress-free! The crew arrived on time, packed everything with care, and stayed professional throughout. Highly recommend for a smooth, reliable experience! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Would recommend to anyone.

I recently used America 1st Moving for a long-distance move, and overall my experience was decent. They operate as a broker, which means they connect you with a carrier rather than handling the move directly. At first, I was a little unsure about that, but the process was explained clearly. The booking process was simple, and the representative I spoke with was friendly and helpful. They gave me an estimate and walked me through what to expect. Communication before the move was good, although there were a few moments where I had to follow up for updates.

10/10 great movers. 0 of my stuff broke. They work fast and fairly priced. American First Movers will be my go to anytime I need movers and will recommend to my friends. Great communication, answered all my questions. 10/10 recommend American first movers

America 1st Moving has an amazing crew and are some of the best movers I have ever worked with… The staff was so professional and they made sure to confirm all details before the move… During the move, the team was very professional and quick… They easily navigated the city and the university with ease… Can't recommend their team enough… Highly recommend to anyone reading this right now… Thank you America 1st Movers… You really represent the meaning of "Movers who care".

I had to come on here and leave the guys at America First 5 stars. Really professional and studious service. On time, clean and quick. Fair rates, had their own equipment and left no damage or trash behind. Much better than a couple of other companies we've used in the past.

The team arrived on schedule and worked efficiently to load and protect my belongings, taking extra care with fragile items and ensuring everything was wrapped securely for transit.

Do not use this company! They will give you A BINDING CONTRACT and then at the last second tell you that you owe them double, the day before your move! The contract IS BINDING and they will make you feel obligated to pay more out of panic, and then you're stuck with out a moving company. Terrible business. I got screwed out of over double my first contract, despite nothing changing with my move, though they claimed I had double the amount without ever seeing my items. It is a scam. AVOID AVOID AVOID! I only have a 1 bedroom apt, and my stuff took up the amount of space I had purchased, but they wouldn't pick up my things if I didn't pay double!

We used this company for our move across country and it was a total disaster. We paid over 7k to move a 2-bedroom house. We went over every item and gave exact measurements to Noah. They came back with we needed 2100 cubic feet. 2 days before moving, they call to verify all we were taking. I was told by Eric buy another 300 cubic feet to be safe for another 579 dollars, so we did. Then moving day comes, the moving company Bristol Movers and Storage LLC they contract. The mover wearing Ugg slides immediately comes in house and demands another 1600 because the 2400 cubic feet can only fit our 2 bedrooms of furniture and a few boxes. Then when I refuse, he is yelling in Arabic at someone on phone.

Experience with this company was awful, very bad. Late picking up, tacking on over $2000 in extra fees. Not having enough room on their truck. Spoke very broken English with sketchy explanations for additional fees! When speaking with Logistics engineer he assured me everything was set. Tried to get in touch him 3 times about the situation. Got NO REPLY. Supervisor was no help at all!

Brayan and his crew were fantastic. Very courteous and respectful. Explained everything in advance, step by step and did as they said they would do. Went the extra mile and did so with smiles. Thanks to America First and Cobra Vanlines.

Very timely and efficient! Very professional! Took care of all my things and were very detailed! Had to adjust my time for pickup and they did so no problem! Massive help getting my things cross-country.

I would recommend it America First Moving. They were more helpful than the other company was. They answered a few questions I had. Getting a quote was simple for the most part. Also, they were there within a couple of days to get me moved. I needed to get moved by that weekend. It was early in the week when I called. They were able to make it happen quickly. The crew packed very carefully, and took care of our stuff. The crew moved everything and staged it all up in the new place. They did an excellent job. The main guy was very helpful. It was a good experience.

A friend told me I should use America First and when I was shopping around, the other companies were saying bad things about other companies. But I didn't get that from America First. They explained the whole thing and were very straightforward. They weren’t overselling me, which was a big thing that my friend told me to watch out for. The price was fair, all my stuff got there quickly, and most importantly, my wife was happy. I did all the packing myself, and the crew packed some things professionally. I couldn’t be happier with how they loaded the truck. I’ve never done a long-distance move, but all my things arrived just fine. The guys were friendly and quick, and my neighbors didn't even notice. So, that's great. Moving is not the greatest thing to do, but they made it easier for me, and I'm very happy.

I was moving out to Arizona and when I was looking for a mover, the first company that I looked at didn't give me the best price option. I was looking for the next best price option, and I thought it would end up being America First Moving Services, but it wasn't. Getting a quote was the simpler part with them. They told me over the phone what the price was going to be and they weren't too stingy or mean about that.

We ended up going with this moving company for a cross-country move from Rhode Island to California, I would steer clear if you want a seamless, trouble-free moving experience. The reason for the one star is based on their communication, professionalism of the contracted company they choose to do business with, and the overall quality of the service they provided. First off, communication was terrible, I started off with one person, was passed around and received communication from three different people from various phone numbers and email addresses. When it came to pick-up and delivery, you did not know until the day before they were planning on arriving, no communication prior to that with confirmation. It was especially stressful on the receiving end when I had to call into the company three times to get a confirmed potential date of delivery.

Super nice and respectful movers. They were great and even managed everything in the very cold weather we are having. They wrapped all the furniture and kept everything nice during the move. They double checked everything well in the documents too and were easy to coordinate with.

The team did great work. Quick and efficient moving with care taken for all items. Overall a good move and on time. The team expertly maneuvered a few challenging items. Movers were: Noe and Eddie. The team was able to arrive a day early. The weather in Chicago was horrible and the team pushed through getting the move done.

Great moving experience! The team was very efficient and worked quickly. Everything was packed securely and professionally. The service was excellent, and the staff was very kind and helpful. Highly recommended.

Cameron and his crew did a great job helping with a last minute move. Helped package and secure delicate items and handled them with care. Properly explained services and pricing making the move very easy going. Highly recommend them!

Terrible service, price increased on date of move, because the movers had numbered tags 1 to whatever. Charged due to number of boxes, regardless of size. Things were broken, scratches on some items. Miss handled lawn mower, cost to repair $500, in addition to ruined paint job. When they left our house, said they would store for 3 days, so could be delivered the first of next week. However, when we got to address, phone call to company, and no one knew the location of my household items. Said it would be a few dates to a week to get it delivered.

Moved from upstate NY to Florida. Great experience when items picked up in NY. Guys were Great and attentive. Delivery in Florida a whole different story. I contacted carrier for delivery at our new address and provided location. This was a residential move, not commercial. A few days prior to delivery I was contacted by driver that he could deliver the next afternoon (Saturday) if his first stop went quickly, if not it would be Sunday morning. I agreed that would be fine. He said he was driving a tractor trailer. I informed him that he would not get the truck to my home. That my residence was in a mobile home park. The roads and turns would not accommodate a truck that size. He said "We will see." Again I told him he will not get the truck to my home. Received the same answer. "We will see."

The two movers that arrived for my move came within the allotted time frame. They packed my items with care and they were very timely. I appreciate the hard work. This my first state to state move and it was made so much easier.

They first quoted me at $4300 and when they showed it sky rocketed to $5300!! Seriously! Almost every piece of furniture I have got damaged one way or another and they lost a bedframe. When they picked up they were Pack & Go. When they delivered I have NO idea who they were. Some foreign man and his side kick. I cannot ever recommend this company!!

I contracted with this company in October, anticipating a move in a short period of time. Due to 2 completely unrelated, unexpected health related emergencies, I had to put my moving plans on hold and then eventually cancel completely. Ashley was kind, understanding, sympathetic and genuinely willing to help. I was refunded a partial amount of my initial deposit… without incident or argument. I’m grateful for the easy dealings with Ashley and America First Moving.

I have nothing but love for this company! Their customer service has been wonderful - NJ and Jason took the time to listen to me and my concerns, and treated me with the utmost kindness. The pricing was the best I've found and I really appreciate the price-lock guarantee for 24 months. Highly recommend America First Moving!

When I initially put the reservation I did it based on pricing alone. After reserving I read some of the reviews and I became concerned with what I was reading about previous experiences with the company. For that fact alone I canceled my reservation. Other than that the customer service and pricing were 10/10.

***PURE NIGHTMARE*** If I could give a negative 0, I would! It has been 6 months, no resolution at all and NO furniture and out of over $9000!!!! NJ sales person told us that America 1st is a self-contained one stop shop and will deliver door-to-door for our international move to the Dominican Republic from North Carolina. NJ continued to reassure that their company would be great for the international move and that his guys would love to take a vacation to the DR and we had nothing to worry about. NJ proceeded to tell us that America 1st would also take care of customs, the fees and so forth once our belongings reach the port in the DR.

I recently moved from Kansas City, Kansas to Dayton, Ohio with my girlfriend and I want to point out that this moving company made our relocation as easy and stress-free as possible. 👍🏻 The guys arrived exactly on time (even though I had to change the time) and carefully packed our things. The three man crew worked quickly, efficiently, and without any unnecessary fuss, it was clear I guess they had a lot of experience. They stayed in touch throughout the entire move and constantly updated us on the delivery status. I was pleasantly surprised that everything arrived in perfect condition, with no damage or delays. 👍🏻 I definitely recommend this company to anyone who needs a reliable and attentive moving service!

I had a great experience with this company. The service was professional, efficient, and delivered on time. The team was polite, responsive, and easy to communicate with. I’m very satisfied with the results and would gladly work with this company again. Highly recommended.

We can’t say enough good things about our movers from Stanford Van Lines, Inc who were Alex and Alexsei. They showed up early, were super organized, and super careful with the furniture. They worked all day for us and we couldn’t be happier with them!! If you need a mover, you need to use Stanford Van Lines Inc, and asked for these two fellas. As for America First Moving, Eric in the Coordinator department went out of his way and above and beyond to make this move happen in one day.

I had a wonderful experience with America First moving services . The crew arrived right on time and made the entire move completely stress-free — truly not stressful at all. Everything was packed perfectly, with great care and attention. Their level of professionalism was extremely high from start to finish. The delivery was excellent as well; it arrived exactly within the timeframe I was expecting. Customer service provided great support throughout the process, always responsive and helpful. But I especially want to highlight the pickup crew — they were absolutely the best. They worked efficiently, respectfully, and made me feel confident that my belongings were in good hands. Overall, I’m very happy with the experience and highly recommend America First for anyone looking for an easy, smooth, and professional move.

Do not recommend. They are scummy. Raise prices and are not transparent on that at the start. Their cancellations is like 10 days ahead of them coming and if you had asked for expedited services, you are sol, if you didn’t have 10 days to begin with. They wanted to give $500 shut-up money when we reached out after they won the credit card dispute. The contract is 23 pages and it feels like they are legally scamming us. We didn’t even let them take our stuff because we got worried, they were extremely rude. We did U-Haul instead and paid some people to help with that. Much better experience just doing it that way. And cheaper even after paying guys for help.

We experienced a bait and switch. We were told 3 movers and a supervisor would show up. Only two showed up. We were told a set price only to have it switched on us. When we called we were sent to multiple people and were told we could not back out without losing 2500 dollars. Now we are told they will only move 37 pieces or pay an additional 1500 to 3000. Total price to move 37 pieces was over 5300 dollars. What a scam.

Updated on 11/03/2025: I was hopeful that my experience at pickup was not a sign of things to come. Unfortunately, my Steinway piano arrived at my home severely damaged. One leg was broken off, the music stand that had been doweled and glued was ripped away, and all four corners showed clear signs of impact consistent with being dropped.

I hired this moving company from the advice of ConsumerAffairs. It has been the worst moving experience I have ever had, did not arrive with the correct truck to load a gun safe, truck wasn't big enough for all of our stuff had to come back the next day to load the rest of items. Amount that was going to be charged changed to 3 times the original amount. Took approx. 20 days to deliver and the moving company that was dropping of my items was Accessible Movers. They couldn't reassemble anything because they didn't have any hand tools. I took pictures of items that were damaged and sent a claim in, what I was going to receive from all this is $91.00 for every item that was damaged.

I will tell you how great it is to find a company that truly cares about their customers. Being a family-owned business makes it even more special. America First is a full-service moving company. I highly recommend them, I promise you will thank yourself in the end.

Firstly, no thank you for being the worst ever moving company I have ever experienced in my seven times moving histoy from Local to interstate. WOW, I SHOULD HAVE NOT RELIED on a GOOGLE QUICK SEARCH. Your so-called company is the worst ever. I made a STUPID MISTAKE - I would rate you soon on Google as a one out of 10 -the worst company I ever experienced - what a nightmare. I live in Austin, Texas and this was a simple local move. You provided "Pack n Go" as the local company. They were not nice at all. Your total system has to be the worst experience ever!

Good move and they were prompt on calling and ensuring the move went well. They packed up and moved the boxes to the house in a nice truck and moved them to the house. The company comes with a insurance policy to replace all broken items and they unpack and set up all your boxes as promised.

They quoted $9,000 and we gave them a $4,500 deposit on Visa ... then the day before the move they called and wanted $23,000 and we cancelled.... They get our 4,500 deposit on visa. Now we have to get an attorney and go to court... This company is disreputable... Please watch out. They are criminals.

I was planning on move from Alabama to North Carolina. I talked to this company and they asked when I needed my delivery made. I told them and they said okay. They arrived on U-Haul. That seemed suspicious. I thought they will load my furniture and drive to NC in a couple of days. They wrapped my furniture in handicap and charged 1000.00 extra dollars. I had to stay in hotel for 2 nights and then I had to buy an air mattress. I am 77 years old with broken arm. All my clothes are with my furniture. It has been one week and I still don't know when I will get my stuff or if I will. I was not told about my delivery at any time. I have never been treated like this. Please beware.

From the initial booking to the completion of the move, the process was riddled with misinformation, delays, lost items, and damage to my belongings. When I booked my move through the representative, Toni **, I was specifically told: "The total price would be $4,959.39," and that no additional charges would incur. I would have the full truck for my belongings. When I questioned why this was not on the contract, Mr. ** told me that the wording “household items” meant I would have the full truck. The same movers would handle both pickup and delivery. My belongings would remain on the same truck from pickup until delivery. None of these statements were true.

Very very poor service! We were put off for 3 days excuses after excuse! We had to be out by certain time frame. I have 4 witnesses who were present, they left us stranded on the day we had to be out and keys turned in. They conned us on prices just for 5 pieces of furniture and boxes, they were to take pictures of what they were supposed to move only! They said they would give our money back in full, but they lied and now we are not. I’m 63 in a wheelchair, we have no money, they are terrible business!

This company has been great to work with. The process to set up the move was seamless. The customer service was excellent and easy to work with. They worked really hard to meet all of my needs. Especially, thank you Jason, this old lady appreciates you.

We had a rural move with tricky terrain, but their truck handled it like a champ. No complaints, no delays—just solid, dependable service. America First Moving is the real deal for any move and that's why I recommend them.

It was a pleasure to do business with Mike and his team, they kept me updated throughout the move, showed up on time, took great care packing and loading all of my goods. I would recommend their services very highly, they are a professional and honest moving company that takes a lot of pride in what they do.

There were some issues with the move; however, the company stood behind their services and worked with me to resolve those issues. They were courteous, understanding and very forthcoming as they worked with me. These are the hallmarks of a solid company that will stand behind their services and strive to provide good customer service.

Cate in customer service is just GREAT! This company should use her to train all customer service reps and up. Her attention to detail, friendly, professional and helpful manner made a true difference in my experience with this company. She should be recognized for her service!! She answered the phone on a Saturday and called me back confirming what she said she would do. Excellent! Thank you, Cate, for everything.

The original quote was $1700. 24 hours before move they call to review inventory. I was told almost half of what I had originally listed wasn’t on the original quote. Priced jumped to $3880. What can you do ONE day before a scheduled move. I have always pains by the size of the truck and the hour. Amber per item. The subcontractors movers they used where very professional and kind but this company overall lures you in with a reasonable price and the day before your scheduled move, after paying a deposit jacks up the price. They never explain that the day of the move you have to pay the movers in cash half upon pick up and then remainder when it arrives. Horrible way to do business. Felt taken advantage of by a company that is not honest upfront and then waits 24 ours out from move to “review” items only to jacks the price up. Complete scam. Stay away.

Unreliable, don't be fooled with a broker call and explanation of comparing other companies to make you the scapegoat. And of course it's a lie. Honestly I would say, it's not a reliable company. Seeing views, and personally experiencing a delay of approx. a month. It's highly unprofessional service. And still no delivery since 2nd of July when process was started. No idea of ETA.

Please any and all consumers!!!! Beware!!!! Do not use this company! It is a brokerage company!!! They will sell you a loving and good pitch, then give your belongings to a company from a country that speaks no English and they hike up the prices and then they hold on to your furniture. My belongings were picked up on July 18, 2025 in Palo Alto California. To Date is July 25, 2025 and I have no earthly idea where my belongings are or when they will be ever delivered. I am a medical professional and many of my personal medical belongings are held up in some storage unit with the most unprofessional moving company I have ever dealt with. I was warned by reputable companies but I was gaslighted into using this company. I am so angry that I do not have my belongings and they could care less about your belongings.

I had a very complicated move that involved moving out of one place, storage for a few weeks, then into a new place. America First handled both moves and everything stayed safe the entire time. Communication was excellent from start to finish.

This moving company was recommended by a neighbor and I’m really glad I listened. From booking to moving day, everything went smoothly. The movers showed up early, handled my fragile boxes carefully, and made sure everything arrived in perfect condition.

Good moving experience. They worked diligently to provide the utmost of services. The move was efficiently done by 3 guys who were extremely polite and friendly at all times. I would strongly recommend using them for your future moves.

You want to get scammed and learn about breached contracts this is the place to go! Original contract started at $7900, signed and paid then they show up on Moving day. Said it was more boxes than expected they claimed (because a shoe box counts as a box) they upped the bill another $5k, demanded payment in cash. Then demands another $5k upon arrival also in cash. The contract said licensed and insured movers. We get to the destination and men from Craigslist were on our doorstep saying they were offered $20/hr.... I'm sorry what? No background check. No license, just random men from Craigslist?! So original contract went from $7900 to $17,900. And what can you do, you have to move? Everything is scheduled, they made us sign for additional fees, this is the highest form of entrapment.

Just hire someone else if you care about your belongings. Communication, price, damage, etc., is what my experience entailed. Be careful if you call them and get an estimate because mine somehow doubled when it was all said and done.

I have spoken with Tiffany who was very polite, respectful and professional. She gave me the chance to speak and explain my situation. I appreciate her assistance to come to a final agreement to receive a refund. I would strongly recommend speaking to her if you are having any disagreement or trouble with your contract/move.

Hiring this moving broker was a terrible mistake. The partners they broker out your move to are sketchy and they have a common theme down, which is to jack up your move cost by thousands by claiming cubic feet overages. Which is not what you are told when you sign your contract with America First Moving. We went from $13k to $15k to $18k to $23k. And we never increased our load size from what we contracted with America First. So shocking when the brokered out movers come and tell you, you now owe an additional $8k. AND they say sure you’ll have your stuff by the date you need it, then as soon as they take off with your stuff they tell you they legally have 30 days to get your stuff to you. Which was NEVER mentioned in any of the many conversations we had.

I had a great experience using America First Moving Service. From the getting a quote to got delivered, they were excellent. I was moving from Port St Lucie Florida to Redwood City California. After the pickup date was scheduled, smooth sailing all the way to get all my stuff. I was nervous as it’s a long distance move. The customer service is great. They are all very courteous, patient and professional. Always get back to me for the questions I had. The pickup crew was also very nice. They came on time and did everything promptly. So was the delivery guys. I am very satisfied to receive everything on schedule. Only has few minor damages. Consider such long drive I am more than happy with everything. Thank you all for the great service! Highly recommend.

My circumstances changed. I’m in my late 70’s. My move was from Arizona to Wisconsin. The people I will live with, have offered to move me in their truck. So, I put a cancellation order in the same day I did the order. I’m very happy with how America First has handled the return of my deposit.

On March 26, 2025, I hired America First Moving Services for a long-distance move, from Glen Allen, VA to Sarasota, FL. When I spoke on the phone with **, Sr Moving Coordinator with America First Moving Services, to set up my move, I asked ** if this moving company a Broker? He said “No”. I didn’t want consolidated movers.

We had a moved scheduled and just weeks before we were supposed to leave one of us had a stroke. Mr. ** was really helpful in get our situation taken care of. When all the medical issues are cleared up and we finally get to move, we are definitely using America First Movers.

Blake has been exceptional to me in providing America First Moving Services. He is extremely responsive right away. He provided me with all the discounts possible for my move. My move is scheduled soon and I hope I continue get the same exceptional services from America First moving. Blake remains in constant touch with me and I have even referred my colleague to them.

Great customer service. Friendly and responsive. We were looking high and low for a company to provide a service that we could rely on considering so many moving companies are so shady these days. The ladies in the office albeit busy are consistently friendly and upbeat making the stress of moving a bit better.

Due to an unfortunate occurrence, we had to cancel our move. America's 1st Moving was most helpful in getting everything done to help us through the process of cancellation...Everyone that I dealt with was most helpful. Thank you to Jay and Julian, especially for dealing with an old woman.

I booked my move with America's First Moving with skepticism, since I had never done a full service move before. Let me tell you; hiring this company was the best decision I could have made! Moving is so stressful as at it is that it was nice to work with a company that was on point in every phase!! I personally want to give a shout out to Jessica who helped me with my move from NC to TX and I was so impressed I booked another move (smaller) from CA to my TX home! I absolutely can't say anything bad about this company from start to finish! Thank you guys so very much for making my life so much easier!!

Wonderful experience working with America First, they were patient and willing to work with me on cost and scheduling. Very professional and I will definitely recommend them for anyone looking to move. In the end we were unable to utilize them due to reasons outside our control, however they left a great impression on me and I will use them without question on my next long haul move

The company actually called and resolved the issue.

America 1st Moving company did an exceptional service moving our entire household from 26 years of living and collecting things over all that time. They handled the entire process from start to finish with excellent customer service. If we ever need to be moved again, we will definitely use this company again.

First off, our initial discussions with America First Moving Services was outstanding, we were scheduled very quickly and properly for our upcoming moving experience. A little later on because of conditions beyond our control, the original plan demanded us to ask for alterations to our upcoming move and both our scheduling coordinator (Nick) and the customer care team (Tiffany) were able to accommodate us every step of the way which was a major stress relief for our family. Thank you so much for an excellent experience all around!! I highly recommend using America First Moving for any and all moving needs! Michael and Alicia

I have to say, the customer service team was exceptional in their handling of our needs. The responsiveness of the this company is premium. They strive to make the customers happy and that’s all we can really ask for. I would definitely recommend them to someone that is needing a reputable moving company.

My experience with America First Moving Services, who subcontracted Barahona's Moving & Storage, was extremely disappointing. While the initial estimate seemed fair, the situation quickly changed. After most of the work was done, they held the completion of the job hostage, demanding an extra $1,000. They also neglected to load furniture I had specifically requested be transported. Trapped and feeling pressured, I even inquired about the cost for two items I absolutely could not move myself, but ultimately felt I had no alternative but to pay the additional fee to get the job finished. This blatant bait-and-switch approach was incredibly unprofessional and left me feeling exploited. I strongly advise against using America First Moving Services. Potential customers should be extremely wary and insist on having every detail in writing. Even then, be prepared for potential surprise costs.

Date April 22nd I like to share my experience with America First Moving. Moving from Nashville TN to Washington dc. Not GOOD COMPANY. DON'T DO ANY BUSINESS WITH THEM. I told Blake ** that it's studio size. He put 20 boxes on contact. I told him numbers of time. We need more boxes. He said, "We will take care of you day before moving." I ask him when delivery date. He said it should be take 2 days. When I call for date he said call customer service. I called them. Jason said no fix date. It can take any time like 10, 15 or more. He said pay more money. I paid $1500 more to get delivery on time.

Really good movers. I definitely recommend them. They moved my friend from Atlanta GA to NJ. The service were on time and great customer service and Dan and his crew were excellent. The price was fair. No cheep and no so expensive but was definitely worth it. We recommend American First for your moving needs. Tyyy

Updated on 05/02/2025: A resolution is in progress and as soon as that is complete, I'll update once more.

I gave a call to America First Moving and the guy broke it down real nice, by price and stuff, and it sounded like it was a great deal. The move was for about 60 miles and took the whole day because they did all the packing, then moved, then unpacked. They did a really professional job and were really considerate with all my stuff.

I was very satisfied with the service. The two guys were great and made me feel very comfortable. They took good care of the stuff and I felt safe knowing that my stuff was in their hands. Communication was excellent. I give them 10 stars.

I used America First Moving for my move from California to Florida in September 2024. Overall the move went well. One issue that I faced was that the original binding contract was almost doubled on the day of the move. The delivery also took longer than expected, however it was within the guidelines for the distance of the move. Unloading was done quickly and efficiently, much faster than the loading. Their customer support representative Vanessa worked with me in getting a partial refund for the issue of a higher than expected price.

All the office service was great—efficient, honest, to the point. I would recommend this service to anyone making a move—big or small. I spoke with both Miles and Jay, who kept their word, were deeply informative, polite, and so, so helpful. Use this service, it will be headache free and speedy!

I moved for a job opportunity, plus I got tired of the cold weather. A friend of mine told us about America First Moving. Their quote was the best one that I had, and that's why I have them do the move. They moved two cars for me through an enclosed truck and I got them in three or four days. I recommended them to five of my friends who needed to move cars and I'm sure the two of them are using America First Moving already. Everything was great with them.

America First Moving had the best quote and setting up the move was simple. The person I worked with was very professional. I had no problems getting the services I needed. The move was for a four-bedroom, two-bath home. The quote was a little bit lower than the actual price, but it worked out.

My uncle, who lived in Las Vegas, passed away and so, we were liquidating his estate. We were selling his house and needed to empty out the house and move everything up to Washington. I was randomly looking online and America First Moving came up first. I contacted them and was happy with my experience with them. It was stress-free and worth every penny. They took so much stress off of our life.

As I saw previously, if zero stars was an option that is what I would give them. My contact was Jim and he was very cordial while selling me the moving services. The move was from KC to Sacramento and the items were picked up March 29th. Jim thought it would be there there by the following weekend April 5/6. The movers then called while I was in Sacramento and said it would be delayed a week to April 12/13. On April 9th I received another call saying the delivery would be delayed some more and they were not sure when it would get to Sacramento. All phone calls, texts and VM to Jim have not been answered. Customer service provides no additional information and says it is in the hands of the movers, Stanford Van Lines. At this point I do not know where my items are or when they will be delivered.

They are crooks plan and simple. They use the bait and switch technique to lure you in then they jack up the price. In my case we were moving my mother from Arizona to California. They quoied me $1800. The day before moving they said it will now be $6000. I wish nothing but bad things for the folks who run this company!

This has been a great company to work with. The paperwork was easy to fill, sign and return to set up the move. They have helped my family every step of the way through an out of state move from New Mexico to Louisiana. I’m hoping I won’t have to move again anytime soon but if I do I will definitely do business with them again.

***BUYER BEWARE***. We originally were quoted $2500 to move our 1460 sq' home 20 miles. The mover called to confirm the move and requoted us $4400. They said we told them beds but not headboards. They claim we said dining room table and 2 chairs, we told them 4. We added 15 boxes to the original count and that added an additional $1900. Of course moving day is tomorrow so we are basically stuck paying almost twice as much. We picked them because of all the good reviews, I wonder who actually wrote them!

From the moment they arrived, the team was professional and friendly. They worked quickly but made sure everything was handled properly. Definitely a five-star experience! Thank you so much. Worth every penny.

This is an honest review. I initially was going to use America First for my moving needs but my wife and I decided to keep our storage unit and take a lesser amount up to our new home in the Midwest. I ended up canceling the contract and America First, the billing department, and the sales representative have all been very helpful in the process of recovering my funds. If you are looking to move out of state I highly recommend using this company. Shout out to Nick **, Jay, and Ashley.

My move from Fort Lauderdale to Chicago was fantastic. They wrapped and protected all my furniture with care, ensuring everything arrived in perfect condition. Their organization and communication were great. I was kept in the loop throughout the move and felt confident my belongings were in safe hands.

This was the worst experience I have ever had with any company. They gave me a quote of $2800 but ended up costing me $7700. Last payment had to be made in cash and the amount was different than any number listed on any paperwork. The driver was told not to open the truck until he got the cash. They communicated with me before my move date and seemed great, but once they packed my things, I did not hear from them. I had to make all contact and the contact I did make was rude and dismissive.

I really wish I could give a minus star. I got a quote from a representative, CLARK **, and I asked him if 300 cu ft. is enough for me to put EVERYTHING. He told me that EVERYTHING should fit based on what I have, so I trusted him, signed the contract, and paid a $632 deposit fee. After I paid, I googled 300 cu ft. and realized it's WAY TOO SMALL; barely any furniture could fit. I called him, but it was past office hours.

BEWARE!!! October 2024 I began looking for a moving company to conduct my move to Dallas. I didn’t know much about finding a company for long distance moves but I did my best to vet companies, try and ask the right questions and read reviews. Ultimately I chose America First Moving. I felt reassured by manager Jim that they would help me, take care of my belongings, be transparent and give me fair prices. I communicated how important it was to me that there were no surprises and that I would be honest about what I was moving so that I could plan accordingly. Jim reassured me numerous times that as long as I communicated the items and they didn’t change the price would stay the same (I asked explicitly numerous times).

HORRIBLE - HORRIBLE - HORRIBLE - DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY. The GM of the company Jay was absolutely terrible. The way he spoke to me as a customer was absolutely horrible. I was frustrated about all of the price changes that was happening over the course of my move and while talking he stops me and says, "You need to change your tone before we move forward." Mind you, I was not being rude or aggressive with him, he admitted this, however, he felt that I would become rude and aggressive and so he wanted to get me straight before it happened. I asked to speak with someone above him and was told there was no one. DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY. All of my boxes were physically damaged and one was missing.

Moving from Miami to Washington, D.C., was handled flawlessly by this team. They packed everything securely and delivered it on time, showing a level of care and attention to detail that was truly exceptional. I was incredibly impressed with their professionalism and would highly recommend them to anyone planning a long-distance move!

I can not even begin to thank Jessica for all she has done for my family. A company who went beyond and above not only to refund my deposit, but truly kept reaching out to ME to be sure I was ok and assuring me this was not a worry. I have never had this before in 40 years of military moves. I want to be sure Jessica is recognized for the person she is. Again, thank you from the bottom of my heart.

Moving from Tampa to St. Louis was a breeze with this team. They were professional, courteous, and efficient, handling everything with care and precision. I couldn’t have asked for a smoother experience, and I’m beyond satisfied with their service. Highly recommend this company to anyone looking for reliable movers!

They made my Fort Lauderdale to Atlanta relocation so much easier than I anticipated. The movers were not only friendly and accommodating but also very efficient and careful with my belongings. Their professionalism and attention to detail made the entire process a pleasant experience. I couldn’t be happier with their service!

EDIT: We had some issues, however all my concerns have been addressed and resolved.

Moving from Tampa to Kansas City was surprisingly easy with this company. They handled everything from heavy lifting to transportation with such care and efficiency.

I was so impressed by the polite and punctual movers who helped me with my Orlando to New Orleans relocation. Every item, including delicate ones, was packed securely and arrived in perfect condition. Their professionalism and friendly service made the move an absolute breeze. I will definitely be recommending them to friends and family!

I was given three different numbers. The trick is when they give you the first estimate you have to pay a 50% payment the very next day they refuse to give you your down payment after increasing the estimate by 50 to 60%. I recently engaged with America First Moving Services, and my experience has been deeply disappointing. Initially, their sales representative, Tim, provided me with a solid estimate of $2,100, even offering a New Year's Eve discount, which I appreciated.

These salespeople lie to you and tell you that your move can be refunded at any time for a small penalty, if you do not need to move. Michael ** told us in writing that we could cancel and that he would take care of us through the whole process. When we actually needed to cancel he just forwarded us to another department and said, "I don't handle that". The cancellations department denies the policy that the salesman has committed to. It's a real scam and lie about what they actually commit to upholding so they can make the sale and get your money.

I called and explained to the rep, Mason that I needed a pool table moved to our home in AL. He supposedly set it up with a company as an add on. The table was to be picked up today and delivered tomorrow. We arranged our holiday around these dates. The contact listed today/tomorrow as moving dates. I found out today that I would have to pay extra to have it delivered tomorrow. If I cancel because we will have no one there for delivery, I must forfeit my deposit. Then the QA rep stated that this brokerage gets no money until the delivery is made. This is a lie. The deposit is made to the brokerage with the remaining payments made on the day of pickup and delivery to the actual moving company. The QA rep hung up and refused to forward my call to his supervisor or provide the company’s owners names. He did say there were 3 owners.

Good experience. Good communication and very respectful. I will plan to utilize them in the future for sure. Worked mainly with Robert, Michael, and Jay. All of them were kind and helpful. Difficult to find that nowadays with other moving companies. Definitely worth getting a quote from these guys. You’ll definitely be treated with kindness.

On November 23, 2024, I was subjected to a bait-and-switch scam orchestrated by an individual named Robert **. On 11/19, he used high-pressure tactics to misrepresent himself as a reputable moving company rather than a broker. He assured me that professional movers would handle my belongings. However, the movers were hired last minute from Home Depot and did not meet the promised standards.

This was by far my worst and most expensive interstate move. The initial call showcased my square feet as 600 and priced accordingly at 4k. However, 2 days before my move, when there was a "reconfirmation", it was discovered that the initial call had numerous mistakes. I added some items, but a partial bedroom was missing. My items sq ft doubled to about 1100, but the price tripled! It was close to 11k. I asked why it wasn't linear and the manager said some excuse and here I'm stuck. Two days before my move! I somehow cut items out, went to 900 (1.5X the original sq ft of 600), but the new price was still close to double (7k).

We wouldn’t recommend this company. We felt pressured all the way, told one thing then it was different when we spoke with another person, Now with that being said…they contracted out to Sky Moving and Storage. Tom and his crew did a nice job, they were 4 hours late, it called and told us they were behind schedule. They didn’t stop once they got there A few hiccups but they worked through them. I would recommend that company, but call them directly, don’t go through a contractor company. Thanks Tom and crew. See you in Washington.

I wish I could give a '0' rating. I just sent the message in quotes to America First Movers because they have contacted me now over 70 times since I reached out to them on October 14, 2024. I decided to go with another company and they CONTINUE to harass me. "I am now forwarding all of your contacts (phone calls, text messages, and emails) to my lawyer. I have REPEATEDLY told various people with America First Moving to STOP contacting me!!! My first request to stop contacting me was made on October 29, 2024. It is now DECEMBER 5, 2024. Clark, Alex, Kayla, I don't care if you contact me via 415-294-2871, or 804-977-1735, or 843-579-8777 - THIS IS NOW HARRASSMENT." STOP

I trusted this company to handle my move from Glen Burnie, MD, to San Francisco, CA, and the experience has been a complete disaster. My belongings were picked up on November 16, 2024,. I was quoted $2,338.75 and assured delivery within 21 days. I paid $994.97 on my credit card, $808 in cash at pickup, and agreed to pay the remaining balance upon delivery. On November 26, I was told my belongings would arrive in 5 days, but as of today, December 3, the driver claims it will take at least another 10+ days because he’s still in Dallas! When I contacted the company, I was told they have no control over their third-party drivers and there’s nothing they can do.

Moving from Miami to Minneapolis was completely stress-free with this company. The movers were highly organized, professional, and treated my belongings with the utmost care.

When I was looking for a mover, I went online for quotes, and the person at America First was the first one to get back to me and send a voice mail. I spoke to the woman and she was great. I didn't feel like I was being sold anything. The woman was very responsive. I could always call her and she would answer me. So I trusted America First.

Our move from Fort Lauderdale to Chicago was made so easy thanks to this company. The movers were polite, careful, and ensured that every item was packed and transported without a single issue.

I researched moving companies to help move my stuff back to North Carolina. I told America First my budget and all the items that I had, and they told me they had a truck coming this way within a short notice. They told me everything I needed to know. I told them why I needed it, and they told me they will put my stuff in storage for me, so I accepted the deal. The movers were pleasant and very friendly. They were also very helpful and handled the stuff with care. They unloaded them into the storage unit.

They made what could have been a stressful day feel completely manageable. Everything arrived safely and on time, and I’d happily recommend them to anyone!

The service that I received from America First Moving was a little flaky. Getting the quote and scheduling the move with them was long and tedious. They did it all over the phone and were a little pushy. They, at first, ask me a few questions then we did a preliminary contract for so much money. Before the move, they called me back and we did a specific inventory. We went through every room and talked about everything that was in there, and the price almost doubled. I wasn't happy about that. The price was ridiculous. I even called around to see if I could get somebody else to do it before I agreed to it. But we were so close to the move that it was a question of finding somebody else that fast. We started out somewhere between $5000 and $6000 and it was a little over $10,000 by the time they got done going through the house step-by-step.

Everything arrived in perfect condition, and I’m very grateful for their excellent service!

Updated on 11/21/2024: Unfortunately, I could not amend my initial concern on 11/10 regarding the major concerns with my experience, however, after sharing them here, the company promptly reached out to address the situation. They took the time to listen to my concerns. After they investigated the final outcome was a 5% refund as a resolution. I appreciate their willingness and their efforts to address my feedback.

If I could leave less stars, I would. Ruined my dresser, headboard, and desk. Didn’t get my items for literally a month. Left a day later than requested. Arrived many hours later than ETA. Only one mover showed up. Once you sign, you are stuck and threatened. When you call one number they in FL they refer you to another number in NJ, and visa versa. Unprofessional. Rude. Don’t do it. Never again will I use a moving company, because of this experience.
