“I wanna start off by saying, I regret not choosing these guys first. It would have honestly saved me from the drama and added expense.This review starts with a negative experience from another moving company. We originally choose a moving company that a friend suggested. They had a lot of negative reviews, but I foolishly thought that the small amount of negative reviews couldn't be that bad. It was worse then I could have ever imagined.
TLDR: The first moving company flaked out on us the day of the move which also happened to be the day before the house closed. They came up with a wild excuse as to why they wouldn't do the job and then just dropped everything and left.
Understandablely, My family and I were freaking out. That's when I reached out once again to Expo Movers and spoke to Ivan. I explained what happened and the tight situation we were in. He assured me that they would help us and to be honest I can't imagine how tirelessly this man could have worked, because the very next day he had a team out to my mom's house and without any complaints, they packed up everything in my mom's house as well as a pod at a pods storage facility. My mom and sister complimented on how fast and professional the men were, a striking contrast to the day before.
Now it's important to point out that all of this happened on Thursday Aug 6th of this year. The move was from New York to Arizona. The moving truck arrived in Arizona on August 8th, later in the afternoon. I'm still shocked by how quickly they arrived. Another important thing to add is that we didn't have a shared truck. It was one truck for all of my family's stuff.
It turned out that on the way to Arizona, there was an emergency with one of the other drivers and that driver had to fly home. The other driver continued to Arizona where he'd end up unloading the entire truck all by his self.
All the while communication was wide open with Ivan. I can't remember if Ivan was the supervisor or a sales associate, but regardless I can never thank him and the rest of his team nearly as much as I already have. This company was quite literally the answer to my prayers in a moment I wouldn't wish upon anyone.
I wish there was a way to rate more than 5 stars. They truly did go above and beyond. Thank you so much again Ivan, and the rest of the team.
P.s. I'm not really going to discuss the cost. Understandablely it ended up costing a bit more than what were originally charged, but considering that Ivan had to plan all of this the day before his man came, he legitimately pulled off a miracle. Now to be honest it would have cost less in a sense to go with Expo Movers to begin with. The moving company that flaked on us was $5000 cheaper than Expo. In comparison, other moving companies were more expensive. Moral of the story...stick with Expo Movers. They are absolutely worth it.”

“I had a wonderful experience with Avant Garde-Moving. From the first point of contact, the representative (Dali) was very helpful in answering any questions I had and accommodating requests I made for the move.
On the day of the move, the movers arrived exactly on time and were extremely professional and efficient. The movers were very quick in moving all of my boxes and furniture, but did not sacrifice care while doing so, ensuring that everything was properly wrapped and secured. At the new place, the movers took care to place all of the furniture in the correct location as I requested. All in all, the entire move took 2.5 hours, from the moment the movers arrived at my first apartment to when they unloaded the last of my things at my new place.
I was initially anxious about selecting a moving company in NYC, as I had heard many horror stories about shady movers. My experience with Avant-Garde moving set a new bar for me and I will be reaching out to them in the future for any moves I may have.”

“Jude is working so hard he doesn’t have much time to ask others to give him reviews, but we are here to articulate his efforts and to thank him for his fresh attitude and personal care while helping us move!”
“They did such a thorough job of explaining the process, were always available to answer questions, checked and double checked what was and was not to be moved. They worked quickly and carefully, packing, tracking, moving and unpacking. Made sure we had copies of inventory and that we understood the process. Everyone was polite and professional and worked cleanly. Everything made it to the destination in tact. They made a stressful process as easy as it could be. We highly recommend Alpha Movers.”
