Hire at your own risk
The WORST move I've ever experienced...and I'm a veteran's wife who made several military moves so that says a lot. Go with the big boys for an interstate move. It may be more expensive but it will be worth the piece of mind. The estimate was hurried and way off. I was asked to list our "large" items, which I did, they estimated 100 medium boxes, and we also figured in a 10x15 storage unit as we were preparing our house to sell. They assured me that we would have the "whole semi" and if we needed more space we would have it. We received a "binding" estimate. After the estimate I remembered several large items & emailed to advise them. At that time I was told that we could make adjustments when they performed the pre-move checklist about a week out from our move. A week out we received an email with a listing to check "items often forgotten." Those were all the small items & that list was MUCH more thorough and would have been useful to have before getting the estimate. I emailed the list & scheduled a phone call to go over this list. Our price jumped by $2600 only 1 week out from our move and too late to schedule anyone else. Oh, and this new scheduler had deleted the storage unit because it wasn't clear on the estimate that it was a storage unit. On moving day we realized that American Way is only a broker. Yes, it is hidden in the paperwork, but if you're not a mover some of those details are unclear and it was NOT explained on the phone. The scheduled movers showed up with a "semi" that was much too small. It was a large box truck, not a trailer, and only had enough room for our household good, not our storage unit. As we were mover across the country the next day we ended up having to give them a key to the storage unit so they could pick it up at a later date. OH, and the estimate was again too small. And our price went up again...and they want CASH, or a cashiers check. No credit cards accepted when loading & unloading. They were there, we were closing on selling our house the next day....talk about having someone over a barrel. Overall our cost went from the estimated $11k to $22k. We were given an agreed upon AND VERIFIED delivery date. When delivery day arrived the truck showed up, but not the workers to unload the truck. We wasted 4+ hours waiting for them to find people (off Craigslist) to unload the truck. On top of all that, the movers who loaded the truck disassembled our futon, and the unloaders were unable to reassemble it. We were assured the movers who delivered the storage unit would be able to reassemble it. They could not. We advised them from the beginning of the process, that we had a couple items that needed special care. One of those items was a very detailed, very delicate, model of a ship my deceased father had built. American Way assured us it would be crated, and requested a photo of how it had been previously crated (which I provided from when we moved from Virginia to Texas with Mayflower and it arrived in perfect condition.) The day of the move I found the movers had not only left it on the floor to move a piece of furniture, it had been kicked & a piece broken. THEN, the "crate" was cardboard, which they stuffed with paper to "cushion" it. If I had seen it being packed I would have stopped them. I cannot express how broken-up it was when I unpacked it. There were several other items broken and/or damaged as well. On the phone American Way kept saying Mayflower (etc) are all so much more expensive. I think that was a selling pitch. I probably ended up paying the same amount with much worse results. If you choose this company you do so to your own peril

Thanks, guys!
They were quick, careful, professional, and polite. One of the crew members on my team was new, and the foreman was a patient and kind mentor in showing the new guy the ropes. That kind of care was apparent at every step, from how the crew worked with each other to how they treated me and my things. American Way Moving made a stressful process much easier. Thanks, guys!

I would absolutely use them again!
American Way Moving exceeded my expectations during my long-distance relocation! The crew was friendly, efficient, and incredibly organized. They wrapped and loaded everything quickly, ensuring nothing was damaged. Communication was top-notch, and I always knew what to expect. I felt like my move was in great hands. I would absolutely use them again!

I would highly recommend them.
This is my second time working with American Way Moving. Because I had a great experience back in 2022, I decided to go with them again and I was not disappointed. The crew - Beau and Channing were punctual, friendly, and professional. The move was from one third floor to another third floor with no elevators. It was not an easy move by any means but they were efficient and finished fairly quick. None of my items were damaged and they did a great job of moving some of my larger pieces (oversized couch) through small doorways. Overall, it was another positive experience and I would highly recommend them.

They are Scammers!! Be Aware
If only i can give negative star i would. From the start, I had concerns about Christy White, the lady who quoted me. She was overly pushy, insisted on staying on the phone even when I said I'd call back, and gave me a low quote of $2924 to secure the job. After paying, she became unreachable. On pickup day, a different company showed up a United Speed Movers, claiming to be affiliates of American Movers, and demanded more money or they'd refuse my items a total of $5943. Despite Christy promising delivery within 2-4 days it become one week, the customer service representative I spoke to later seemed dismissive and unhelpful, citing human limitations and unforeseen circumstances like mudslides (which weren't an issue when they arrived). Things escalated when, a day before delivery, someone they demanded an additional $800 for shuttle services due to truck size issues. They should arrive Thursday of July 17 but they arrived Friday, and despite knowing my schedule that I'm leaving that day so my scheduled got delayed because of them, they sent a U-Haul with two workers who didn't seem professional - one couldn't speak English, and they lacked necessary tools, making me dig out my own to assemble furniture. To top it off, one of the workers took my water camera while handling my belongings and go through my stuff. I message them and no response from them. You cant reach any of them anymore. Even the email of the receipt you cant open it anymore. The lack of communication and care after payment has been shocking. This has been my worst experience with movers, and I'm still dealing with the aftermath. So please please please don't take this company they are scammers.

Highly recommended!
After researching and vetting several moving companies, I'm glad we chose American Way Moving. They delivered great service at a great value. Wee needed same-day pack and move for a 1-bedroom apartment. Beau and his team of packers arrived right on time at 8 AM and packed everything quickly and carefully. Salvador and his crew took over, moving everything efficiently and were very professional. Everything was complete around 2 PM without issue. Highly recommended!

Thank you,American Way Moving team!
they were absolute pros, fantastic communication throughout the move, upbeat the whole time. American Way Moving has a knack for picking crew members who work hard but know how to have fun. They took great care with moving my furniture and worked efficiently. Could not ask for a smoother moving experience. Love this moving company.

Great Job
They managed to masterfully park their 26' truck in an awkward (but fully legal!) parking situation that meant our furniture could go directly into the truck without having to cross the street. We packed things ourselves and then they were able to get our entire 2bed+den apartment loaded into the truck, moved to our new home, and then fully unloaded in under 6 hours. They wrapped some of our nicer furniture to protect it, and everything made it to the house with no scratches or dings. We’re hoping to be in this house for a long long time, but if we ever move again we’ll absolutely be calling American Way Moving

Misleading, Unresponsive, and Deceptive — Avoid at All Costs
I contracted American Way Movers for an interstate move from Pittsburgh to Nashville, and it was one of the worst consumer experiences I’ve ever had. Misrepresentation: They presented themselves as a moving company, but they are actually a broker. This was never made clear until the day of the move. False Promises: I was verbally assured multiple times — even days before the move — that my belongings would be delivered directly within 1–2 days. When the carrier arrived, they told me, “Oh, they lied to you,” and my delivery ended up taking five weeks. Bait-and-Switch Pricing: Despite reviewing my inventory multiple times and assuring me it would fit in the truck space I paid for, the carrier claimed I had 2–3x too much stuff and demanded hundreds more dollars to load it. No Accountability: Once my items were picked up, American Way Movers told me they had no obligation to me and that any issues with the carrier were not their responsibility — even though they hired the carrier. Customer Service Nightmare: There’s one phone number. You’ll wait on hold for 30+ minutes, only to be hung up on. No one returns calls. No one helps. No Claims Support: Now that I’m trying to file a claim, there is no contact info or support available. This company fits the profile of every moving scam listed on the FTC’s website. I strongly urge others to avoid this broker and seek out reputable, direct moving companies instead.
