Why the truck looked like as doors opened. Things shoved, smashed, on flood, boxes sideways, etc.
Ari G.

CANCEL WITH THIS JOKE OF A COMPANY NOW! If you, or your moving broker company set you up with Alpha or you chose them yourself, you should cancel asap. If your too far in with them here are tips: -put AirTags in your stuff to track -if they say delivery will be a date, expect it will most likely be weeks from that date. -get EVERYTHING in writing from them -DON'T pay upfront. Wait until delivered. -measure the truck when they show up & take pics of the whole process and all your items. -pack your own items, we did and I'm so glad we did because I can only imagine what boxes would look like if they did it! -read ALL yelp reviews with same experiences as us. They know how to work the system to where all their B.S falls into the legal guidelines so they won't refund. Like not delivering until day 20, when they have 21 days, or sending one guy on delivery with only one small dolly, no tools and nothing to reassemble our stuff making it where we now have to find someone to most likely pay to re-assemble everything for us. The full 20 days it took them to get us our stuff was such a horrible experience for my whole family. Little background, we moved from Las Vegas to another city in Nevada 7 hours away. We were quoted foot around $6,500 for a 26 foot truck after giving them details of our 1,843 sq.ft of our house, photos of how much items and furniture we had, etc. We ended up spending $8,900 with them AND around $2,000 on our own due to needing to purchase items/toiletries/ food, that we already had sitting on their trucks for 20 days. They told us in person, while picking up that we needed a second truck to load the rest of our stuff and it would be an additional $2,240. And said "if you pay in full it will be express delivery" which was never put in writing so we weren't able to prove this sadly, however we did it. (GET EVERYTHING FROM THEM IN WRITING AND DON'T PAY IN FULL) Pick up was for 10/4 with drop off 10/9, but 10/10 due to the holiday. We got our stuff 10/24. (Right in the legal timeframe before they get fee'd) Within those 20 days we were NEVER given an update on what was going on unless we called ourselves, and every time we called it was different excuses. "Truck broke down, had to turn back around to Vegas" or "the driver hit his hours for the week", bla bla bla. And every time you call the office they say "oh the manager just walked out, I'll have him call you when he gets back in" But they NEVER call back. Or they would say "the truck left, but our AirTags showed still in the storage on Harmon Ave. I requested the owners contact at the end of this nightmare, which turns out he's the guy who goes by Zack (Johnathon Romero) and was also who we would text for updates with a reply usually saying "let me check with the office" then wouldn't ever reply with the update. I asked him multiple times for the owner of the company to get in contact with us to get some sort of refund on the $8,900 due to the delays, lack of communication, etc. The worst part, on top of waiting so long for OUR belongings was the fact they out sourced a driver for an 18 wheeler (he was amazing) but he shows up with ONE Alpha employee, no tools, one small dolly and expected them to unload the full truck themselves. My husband witnessed them almost drop our washer, so he started helping due to possible damages to our items and feeling bad for the 2 guys trying to do it all without the necessary tools. They were to unload the truck and reassemble all beds & furniture. Since they couldn't, our items sat on our front yard while we were trying to call to get help from somewhere in our new hometown. Not to mention they use cheap brown tape that leaves sticky residue on EVERYTHING, and most of the new grey storage totes I bought with my own "fragile" stickers were all cracked and damaged due to them stacking heavy stuff on top. They also put on the order sheet "CP-SC" on lamps, photos, decor, etc. which stands for "Customer Packed-Scratched" to cover their own a**es when things show up dings and scratched, which was almost everything. All our large items and furniture is still sitting in our garage disassembled until we find someone, which will of course come from our own pocket seeing as they won't respond to us now. I contacted Amerisafe Moving, which was our broker, to get a refund or reasoning as to why this all happened and pretty much the answer is "well they had 21 days to deliver, and showed up with 2 guys which is the minimum to unload and reassemble with or without tools" Such a joke! My in-laws just moved here yesterday from Las Vegas with their belongings in a 4,852 sqft home and used Allied Moving. They didn't screw them around and will have their stuff here Monday 10/30. They don't pay until DELIVERY. And their TOTAL was UNDER $7,000 Let's just say my in-laws learned from our mistakes, and didn't have to deal with what we have had to the last 20 days :/

Items destroyed by company and not payed for to replace
Suzie R.

If I could give a zero I would. These are scammers, they destroyed $500 worth of my furniture and refuse to give a refund for MULTIPLE items without my signature anywhere allowing it. They charged me an extra $500 at pick up to "pack" and yet the boxes they filled were HORRIBLY arranged and all fell apart and were a disaster. Tried to charge another $200 at drop off. Handed me my nightstand IN LITERAL PIECES and said wasn't their problem. It wasn't seran wrapped or in a quilt which is IN THE CONTRACT

Deep grooves smashed and trash danish take wardrobe vintage
Alyce N.

Alpha moving Service destroyed 80% of my items. They were moved from truck to truck they said that they would wrap one of my pieces they never did and they were not handled with any type of reasonable care. My antique danish teak wardrobe was completely smashed scratched and with deep gouges in it exclamation point to television sets were shattered and they were in the original boxes. A simple human trashcan that his voice activated was completely smashed as well as the computer component was ripped off. And various other items were destroyed. Dealing with the insurance company as well as the moving company has been a complete nightmare. When the items to get to the final destination they were not able to get a second person to unload the truck. So we had to wait till the next day. Alpha Moving told us that the truck could not make it up our driveway when we have a roundabout as well as a straight shot driveway that they would need to rent a smaller moving truck we asked if we could pay for it they said no if we were able to pay for the small moving truck it would've been about $60 and they ended up charging us close to 300 but we had to do it otherwise we wouldn't of gotten our items. They also could not find a person to unload the large truck onto the small truck so me a 50-year-old woman that is 5 feet tall had to help unload the large truck onto the small truck. My husband then had to unload the small truck into our house because I could not physically do any more work. So we ended up paying for a move having to unload onto a truck and also unload into our house. And we also had to pay a couple of hundred dollars extra for a smaller moving truck. As well as tips $400 in tips. For them to have our items about 70% arrive completely smashed and unrepairable. The insurance company graciously offered us $120 in compensation

I wish I could give 0 stars. Half of my items were broken or missing. I couldn't even file a claim because they did not provide me my bill of lading. This company is a scam. If you ever have to deal with Sammy- RUN. He's the scam artist. Awful awful company. I would never recommend them. Stay away!!!

Giant glasses destroyed!

do not consider this as an option! read the reviews here! look at the photos. i have pix of items that never arrived even after paying an additional fee for being over their estimate.

Sherri, the manager, provided extremely poor customer service. I've rented a storage unit from this…read morecompany since May 2025, and I reserved my U-Haul a week in advance for a 3:00 PM pickup to ensure everything would go smoothly. However, when I arrived at the scheduled time, no one was there, and I wasn't helped until 3:45 PM. I explained that the delay put me an hour behind schedule and asked if she could offer a discount since I couldn't check in online without the keys she had. She responded that she "doesn't work for U-Haul," had other customers, and would not provide any discount--without even offering an apology for the inconvenience. This was especially disappointing considering I've been a customer here for the past six months. While I was in the office, she was also openly discussing issues about people living, cooking, and defecating on the property, which was very unprofessional. Based on this experience, I would not recommend using this location.

SCAM ALERT!! Do NOT rent from this place. They will bill you for U-Haul insurance and claim it's…read moremandatory even when U-Haul was contacted and said it was not. We declined insurance and they charged us anyway. U-Haul customer service was contacted and the situation escalated. Rude, poorly trained staff member. Avoid this place at all cost. Plenty of other options to choose from. UPDATE: A refund for the fraudulent charge was issued, however not a peep to apologize for poor business practices. The review shall remain as is.
