We Are Alliance Movers
It takes a total commitment to quality to be one of the nation’s best moving companies. We hold ourselves to a higher standard than most—the Bekins standard—which means we have more satisfied customers than other movers.
From packing to shipping to unloading and beyond, we take care of our customers every step of the way. So whether it’s maintaining the safety and security of your belongings, or implementing background checks on our employees, you can be assured we’re taking steps to make sure your move goes smoothly.
Numbers don’t lie, which is why we go to great lengths to quantify every piece of measurable data we can. This doesn’t just ensure better, more efficient service: It means lower costs for you, too.
Measurable data we quantify includes:
Packing claim frequency
Packing claim dollar average
Hauling claim frequency

Warehouse claim frequency

Safety points
Weight estimate accuracy
Several other key metrics based upon customer feedback
But the most important and accurate indicator of quality isn’t a number: It’s the ratings we get from our customers. We take these ratings to heart—which is why we’re one of the best moving companies in the world.
Long Distance
Long-distance moves require special authority to transport customers’ items from one state to another. This authority is granted by federal regulators. Companies that offer long-distance moving are also required by law to carry specific insurance policies. These regulations are designed to protect the customer and their belongings.
It is important that you are able to distinguish reputable long-distance moving companies from fraudulent or “rogue” movers who have been known for holding personal property hostage for additional fees and other scams.
Local
If you’re moving to a new house in the same city, or even to another city in the same state – leave it to us. Packing everything, renting a truck, and hauling all of your belongings to the new house can quickly become a stressful and time-consuming process without a mover on your side.
We strive to make your move as easy as possible. Movers are trained to manage and transport your belongings with responsibility and care. Local agents work with you to plan and organize your move while professional packers and loaders handle your household goods with care.
Packing
Packing can be a big job, but our packing and shipping experts have been honing their skills for decades. Let Alliance handle packing for you, and we’ll make sure your items are safe and secure for the duration of your move. There’s no way around it, packing takes a lot of care and time to be done right.
So why not have our experts handle it for you? We offer full-service packing, crating, and unpacking services so you won’t have to go through the stress of doing it yourself.
Storage
Moving usually requires you to do more than just pack your items into boxes and transport them across the city, state, or country. Depending on your moving dates, closing dates, and travel plans, you might also need reliable storage services so you can keep your items safe throughout the entire moving process.
We offer a cost-effective, secure moving & storage service. We can store your items at our warehouses across the country while you’re waiting to close on your new home, preparing to sell your old home, or simply looking for a place to store some extra belongings.
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.
Appliances such as washers, dryers, and refrigerators must be disconnected, and the washer
must have a stabilizer installed. Again, your estimator can help you understand how these
items are properly serviced. All local moving companies have business relationships with
local service providers that handle this type of service, however full service moving
companies and national moving companies will also be able to provide all of the moving
services you require. Be sure you know who your mover will be using, as you will need to let
these people into your home to provide the service.
