Regardless of your mover, I have some advice if you are concerned about valuables.
1. Pack "breakables" yourself and then put those boxes inside their boxes with a layer of peanuts between the two boxes.
2. If the movers are moving your car(s), pack important documents in your trunk with other keepsakes that are irreplaceable. While I have heard of movers losing a box or two, I have never heard of a mover misplacing a car. :-)
3. Carry all valuable jewelry, etc. with you on the plane.
4. Do your Spring cleaning before you move. Don't move stuff you plan on tossing or replacing. Consider what won't work in your new home and get rid of it before you move.

Good luck!
