We had a great experience with Avant-Garde Moving and remain grateful and appreciative to the three gentlemen who helped move our things into a new home. Thanks to them, this was undoubtedly the most efficient and least stressful moving experience I've ever had. Booking was simple. I reached out to moving companies on a Saturday, only a few days before the move was scheduled for early the following week, knowing that it would be a challenge to find someone on short notice. I received a quote from Avant-Garde very quickly with clearly itemized fixed pricing, and Adi was very responsive to my questions and follow up emails over the weekend. Everything was arranged over email. The team was friendly, careful and thorough, and the whole move was taken care of in less time than we expected. It was a scorching hot day and we had quite a lot of small, heavy boxes, which required many trips up and down the stairs of the new place. They did it all efficiently but without rushing and took care not to damage our possessions, with a friendly attitude the whole time. (In hindsight, I underestimated the number of boxes, which I'm sure they noticed but were too kind to mention or bill me for after the fact.) Near the end we encountered a challenge - the sofa was stuck in the oddly-shaped entryway, and despite the team's visibly strenuous efforts it seemed that there was just not enough clearance for it to make it to the living room. We were starting to tell ourselves that we could get rid of this one and buy another sofa; a loveseat, perhaps. The guys gave up for the time being, leaving the sofa wedged in the kitchen, and went downstairs for more boxes. I mentally bid farewell to the sofa and went back to the living room to collapse in exhaustion (because of the heat, not because I had to lift a finger). Suddenly the sofa appeared in the door! It came through easily with the armrests removed. The team had taken a look earlier, showing me where the screws were and explained why they didn't see any way to disassemble it without damage. After a break (during which they moved in the remainder of our things), the team came back to the sofa and figured out that when oriented the right way the armrests lift right off. So the sofa was saved, and we were very grateful indeed to lounge on it that night. I'm sitting on the same as I write this review. The Moving Sofa Problem remains an unsolved problem in mathematics, but Avant-Garde certainly solved our sofa-moving problem. The extra effort here was truly appreciated. A less thorough team, in more of a hurry to get to the next client, might have just hauled it down to the curb as soon as we started discussing the theoretical loveseat, and we wouldn't have known any better. Factors outside of everyone's control (rush hour city traffic, uncooperative building management) led to the move being rescheduled to the morning after the original date, so there was a half-day delay, but fortunately it was not an issue for us. (If considering scheduling an afternoon move, make sure to account for the fact that movers will likely have a morning schedule and city traffic in the late afternoon can be unforgiving.) One last anecdote - we caught a faint whiff of gas odor in the new kitchen and asked if one of the movers could take a sniff for us. All three obliged, validated the observation, and advised us very seriously to be on the safe side and call the superintendent or utility company immediately. It was just another detail that spoke to the level of care taken and the movers' friendly attitude, both of which made this a really positive experience overall. read more

I didn't really want to use the services of any company at first, as i was afraid for the safety of some of my stuff. You can't keep track of everything when you move, there are many cases of loss, and so on, and i have a couple of antiques in my collection. I applied to the Avant-Garde Moving on the recommendation of my friend. He was helped to move from an apartment to a house, and everything went without complaints. I was also satisfied. There wasn't any issues! Excellent responsive guys, you can entrust them with any stuff! I really liked that the movers arrived on time, everything was quickly and efficiently loaded, delivered without any damage. The final cost for the services turned out to be very reasonable, but i have nothing to compare it with. read more

The delivery was the next day as promised (560 miles)! All unloaded in the record time. Everything placed in the designated rooms. No damage, not even a scratch! These guys were fantastic! If you need to move local or long distance- Avant-Garde is the company to go with....reliable, professional, efficient, reasonable price and very, very nice! Wiola & Kevin read more

These are the best movers ever! I had a large moving job from NYC to NJ for my small business. The movers were on time, professional, polite, and efficient. I immediately hired them for a second job and they provided the same service. Everyone I talked to at their office to schedule/quote the move provided excellent customer service. I then suggested them to a colleague for a move. There was a misunderstanding with the pickup address and the movers were sent to the wrong address. Avant-Garde understood and took care of it no problem and rescheduled for another day. I highly recommend them. read more

A facility that is extremely well-run. The reservation was done over the phone with very friendly associate. When we came in to complete the paperwork in person, the formalities went smoothly. The associate who accompanied us,was extremely courteous. For today's Covid situation, the location is clearly defined. The untis and its surroundings were spotless. The entry and exit are managed electronically. Their Brooklyn climate-controlled storage unit was available 24 hours a day, seven days a week. It is truly a five-star facility for storing your belongings. Unquestionably recommended. read more

Helped me move a couple of large pieces of furniture from Long Island into Manhattan. They were very courteous and responsive throughout the process of getting a quote, scheduling the move, and dealing with building insurance paperwork requirements. They showed up on time on the day of the move, and did a nice job quickly and safely packing everything up. At the destination they unloaded and unpacked all the items, placing everything where I asked it to be, and they cleaned up and removed all the packing materials. I'd recommend them and would work with them again. read more

I rarely write reviews but the whole team was beyond amazing! from our move out to storage and then moving us back in, we had a wonderful experience. The movers were extremely polite, professional and went out of their way to help us. There were a lot of large pieces of furniture that needed to be moved and were outside the basic move that we had scheduled. The team was very very accommodating and did not hesitate to help out. Overall this was an extremely smooth and enjoyable moving experience. I would recommend Avant-Garde Moving and Storage to everyone!!! read more

I was extremely impressed by the proficiency and professionalism of Avant-Garde Movers. Under short notice, Adi was able to accommodate the removal of a baby grand piano from a home in Connecticut to my place in lower Westchester County. The four men brought the piano to my home wrapped and cushioned as if it were brand new and diligently put it back together. They made sure it was exactly where I wanted it. They were courteous and good-natured. If I ever have need of another moving job, I will definitely call Avant-Garde again. read more

They arrived early on the day of the move and wrapped, packed, and moved all my items without any trouble. Highly recommend Avant-Garde for others who are moving. read more

We highly recommend Avant-Garde Moving! Our family has used them for two moves, one long distance and one local. Both times were flawless. They took very good care of each piece and the crew was professional. The second move we had them pack up for us and, if you don't have the time to do it, they will do an excellent job using reusable bins so you don't have to waste cardboard boxes. Avant-Garde provides excellent service at a fair price. read more
