Local/Long Distance Moves
A1 Movers offers both local and long distance moving. This means we can move you just about anywhere in the Norther Minnesota/Wisconsin area, as well as across the country. Local Moving is based on an hourly rate, which means if you’d like us to move you an hour away, the travel time is included in the cost. There’s no additional charge per item moved, however there are fee’s for things such as: Pianos, Gun Safes, Packing Services, and Vehicles.
International Moves
International Moving means we can relocate you anywhere in the world. Due to the changes in the economy there is becoming more and more of a need for individuals and companies to move internationally. A-1 Movers has the ability and equipment to get your shipment anywhere in the world and on time.
Corporate Relocation
This can be as simple as moving employees within your current building, or moving the entire facility and employees to another building, city, state or country. Moving employees within your office can be a hassle; However, when scheduled right, we can move everyone fast, efficiently, and not make you miss a day of work. Internal moving is made is with our eCrates. These crates allow us to quickly stack and roll your belongings around the building, to quickly and efficiently move employees to their new locations.
Storage
A1 Movers offers a range of storage options. If you need long term storage, we load your belongings into sealed wooden crates, which are labeled and stored in our climate controlled warehouse. For short term storage, we can often leave the items on the truck, lock all the doors, and store it in our warehouse. This option is suitable if you’re only looking at a few days before delivery.
All loose items must be packed in boxes to prevent loss or damage while moving. It is
recommended that you pack all items and leave the drawers empty.
Items of extraordinary value such as jewelry, money, antiques, and stamp collections
can be included in your shipment, provided that you notify your local moving representative
of these items before packing and moving day. It is strongly recommended that you carry
irreplaceable and expensive articles with you, or make alternate arrangements for their
transport.
In the moving industry, items worth more than $100 per pound are considered to be articles
of "extraordinary value.” To be assured that a claim involving these articles is not limited
to minimal liability, complete and sign your mover's high-value inventory form.
Also, be sure to sign the "Extraordinary Value Article Declaration" box, if applicable, on
your Bill of Lading.
Each mover has a slightly different procedure to follow as it relates to high-value items.
Ask your relocation specialist to provide you with an explanation of their company's process.
This is a confusing (but important) task, so be sure that you clearly understand the rules
prior to load day.
