  • Number of complaints processed in the last 36 months: 6. Complaints issues: Repair Issues (1), Selling Practices (1), and Service Issues (4). The complaints were mostly resolved.
    From other sources:

    Summary:

    I believe Able Moving & Storage are safe to use. This company has been in business for 20 years and is an agent of Atlas. They do have a number of complaints, however the size of their fleet indicates that this company performs large amount of moves per year, hence the estimated ratio of happy clients is 19 out of 20.

    To stay on a safe side follow the guidelines in our Moving Guide regarding closing deals with movers and understanding your estimate, and make sure you insist on having an on-site visual and getting a binding estimate (but that should be done regardless of who you choose for your move), and insure your valuable items on MovingInsurance.com.




    Good luck with your move,
