Do NOT use Moving Seagull. We were lied to, almost every piece of furniture recieved damage in one form or another. We still have not seen our reimburement check and our calls and emails go unanswered.

We moved from the DC area (northern Va.) just this summer and had a very good experience with Town and Country movers. I interviewed about half a dozen movers and chose them based on their ability to guarantee our pick up and delivery dates, and also on their price which was very competitive. In addition to all our belongings (and we had a lot) they also moved 2 of our cars. Nothing was damaged, missing, etc. Not a scratch on the cars either.
You can PM me and I can give you the name of the rep. I worked with if you'd like.
Good luck. Moving is super stressful.

Used them for our move from NYC to ATL and saved a ton of money. They're a part of ABF shipping and recommended by movingscam.com.

Good luck!

I used a local Atlanta mover. The big van-lines could not tell me when my furniture would arrive. They were going to give me a 'window', because they pack many moves on the same van. So I chose an Atlanta company to move to Atlanta. They flew the movers up to Dayton, OH, rented a Ryder truck, packed my stuff exactly the day I wanted, and raced me to Atlanta. My furniture was the only stuff on the truck, so they showed up fifteen minutes after I did, unpacked my bed, and stored the rest of my stuff in their secure yard. The next morning they came back with two extra guys and finished up unpacking the truck, and since it was an elevator building, the extra guys saved a lot of time. Also, since I used an Atlanta firm, they made sure I was happy. So I am glad to brag about them. Of course, they kept saying, oops, broke that - but they were kidding. They even did things like put my bed together, put my breakfront up, and I really liked their customer service. So google Atlanta mover, and call two or three. I value my time, so I really enjoyed their punctuality, and the driver / crew leader was a really professional mover guy.
