Atlas Transfer & Storage Company and our agent John Najera were the best ever. They moved us from Alpine CA to Casper WY. We're a military family and we know movers. John went above the call of duty to pack himself certain fragile pieces and his quality, care and trust in our home goods was the best ever. I highly recommend this moving company and yes, ask for a quote from John Najera!!!! read more

I purposely waited to write my review until all our things came out of our storage here in GA. I wanted to see how many things may have broken moving from our home in Buena Park, CA on August 14, 2024 to Alpharetta, GA. I AM SO PLEASED TO SAY ONLY 1 cheap bowl. Trevor Smith was our representative who came to our home to look over what we would be moving, giving us our quote and really walked us through the process. He was fabulous!! Always available to talk to me when I had questions about how to pack our boxes and even came back out because I thought I had way more boxes then he had quoted us. He was pleasant, friendly and extremely knowledgeable on the process and what we needed to know. The day of our move, Allied arrived. Our driver, Jason Sterling, came before the moving team to apply sticky tags on every single item to be loaded into his truck along with inputting everything into his computer. We loved Jason as well. He was kind, efficient, knowledgeable giving us complete assurance he'd be with his truck the entire drive to Alpharetta. Yes, there would be other people's belongings with ours but each persons items would have walls to not be mixed up. We packed pretty much everything ourselves; however, there were a few cabinets with glass inlay, as well as other precious items needing to be wrapped professionally which Jason did perfectly (nothing broke!!). Such a blessing to us. The "dream team" (aka the moving team) arrived. Apparently, this team is the BEST in the business and I can vouch for them. They were!! Watching them work was so fascinating as they fit all our things into the truck like a Tetris game. Awesome!! They unassembled things and made sure to either tape it to the piece of furniture/item and/or put in a box marked "parts". It were definitely impressed and they worked a full day and very hard for us. We did buy them lunch and of course gave them all a tip. Dinner hour the truck was loaded and off on the journey to GA. We drove and Jason gave us an estimate of when he would arrive at our storage unit. He actually was a day earlier than scheduled so good thing we didn't stay at any one destination but one night as we were pulling our trailer to GA. He gave us his phone number in case anything came up. As for the Trevor's assistant Traci, she too was friendly, helpful, kind and knowledgeable with the process. Always willing to answer any questions we had with what we should do regarding payment, moving, packing and if she didn't know, she'd leave a message for Trevor to call us. Now on the GA end and the crew helping to unload our belongings into our storage unit, we weren't as pleased with them. I really wanted to direct them to make sure fragile things stayed together and nothing was placed on top of fragile boxes, but I felt like they had such an attitude towards any suggestions so I just watched. Thankfully once again nothing was broken. All-in-all, we were extremely pleased with using Allied. Just fyi, I did get a price quote from Northern and they were $2,000+ more than Allied. I believe they may have offered a few more services or something but we had already paid a lot of money for moving boxes, paper, etcetera and really didn't want to spend an extra $2000+. It really needed to be used in other areas of our move. Well done Allied!! Thanks for the great service and all who made our first cross country move excellent. read more

WOW! Our experience with Allied has been incredible. We received white glove treatment from our initial contact with Alex Hunter, and Wendy Davidson (both of whom patiently answered all my questions) to our pack and load (all round incredible) lead, Hector Ortiz. Our home was packed with such care and professionalism. The entire team, Enrique, Ronaldo, and Mark, with Hector worked together like a finely choreographed dance - strong and seemingly effortless . Our carpet was covered to protect it from traffic, sticky mats were left at the doors to remove dirt from shoes - so many value adds!! It took an entire day, with everything meticulously recorded for customs compliance. When all was said and done, we signed the manifest and left feeling assured that our home furnishings were being transported in expert hands. Thanks to our Allied crew for your care and diligence. read more

We just had our household goods moved by Atlas Transfer and Storage in Poway; they are affiliated with Allied Van Lines. I selected Atlas largely because of a very favorable experience I had a couple of years ago when I needed to get a rented minivan weighed to assure it was not overweight moving boxes of books (our nemesis). I went to Atlas on a Sunday; they were closed, but the owner opened up for me and let me use the scale, gave me a weight ticket, and was very friendly. I've since heard only good things about this business. Stefan was our estimator; he came out for a second look after we got a markedly different estimate from another mover. Our experience with the actual move (so far we've just done the loading process) was extremely satisfactory. Hector and his crew were courteous, careful, efficient, and responsive to any questions or requests we made. Hector was flexible about scheduling the unloading. The weight of our goods exceeded the estimate. That didn't surprise me because...well, lots of heavy books and papers. The overage charge was reasonable. We would recommend Atlas without hesitation. read more

Jolene was so helpful in getting things packed up for moving. She communicated great to know when furniture would arrive and she and crew were very efficient in getting things set up in our new house. Want to recommend her to everyone who wants a stress free move. read more

Best Movers bar none! I highly recommend Hector Ortiz and his crew Mark, Enrique and Ronaldo. I had a move that included storage before my delivery and Hector and his crew are the absolute best. The care and the handling of all household goods and furniture was outstanding. All precautions were taken in ensuring that carpets, doors, flooring and walls were properly protected. Hector and his crew are 100% fast, efficient, polite and extremely hardworking. Should I move again I will definitely use Atlas Transfer &. Storage and use Hector Ortiz. read more

My experience with Atlas Van was amazing. From Traci in the main office who is absolutely amazing and on top of everything!! To Matt my driver who was so awesome I've used him twice in 6 months!! CA to TN and TN to AZ. Amazing service and thank you for taking care of my possessions!!! Safe travels my friend! read more

I used Atlas Transfer & Storage to ship my household goods across the country on very short notice. Traci and team were great throughout the process. I received a competitive quote and the team was able to accommodate this move. Traci was very responsive and answered all questions that I had. Gary and Shane assisted with the item moving and were great. They thoroughly and carefully loaded my items and Gary was excellent with the delivery as well. I would hire them again and would recommend Atlas for someone looking to do a cross country move. read more

This was my first time using a moving company. Atlas came highly recommended by a family member but I was still very nervous. We were only moving 30 minutes away, so they were able to do our move in 1 day. Everything went better than I could have imagined. Starting with John coming out to do the estimate and great communication from Traci in the office. The stars of the show were Tyler, Lewis, Marcus, Joey, Frank & Joe that came in their trucks and start to finish were pleasant, professional and so efficient! They took good care of our precious cargo from prepping it to move into the truck to getting it out and then carefully bringing the items to the new house and unloading wherever we told them. Great guys! Thank you to all at Atlas for making this big move go smoothly. I will recommend them to everybody! read more

Moving is a stressful thing but Atlas was a great company to help us! From setting up the move with Trevor to moving day itself. Tyler is a PUZZLE genius in making everything fit and work! Ernesto, Joey, and Frank all worked so hard and had such positive attitudes. Movers should have weekly massages and hot tubs built into their contracts. A truly great TEAM to work with from start to finish! read more

Lewis and Marcus drove all the way from San Diego to Pasadena to pack and ship the contents of my storage unit. I appreciated their communication - keeping me apprised of their ETA - and their efficiency at their job. They took what could've been a very painful process and made it quick and painless. Would definitely recommend Allied and use them in the future. read more

I am relocating from California to Indonesia. Today, Hector, Mark, and Enrique arrived from Allied/Atlas to pack, load and transfer my household goods. They were great. They worked well as a team, they were professional, efficient, kind, and worked quickly. I am very pleased they showed up at my doorstep. They took the stress out of a nostressful situation. read more

We recently hired Allied Atlas Transfer & Storage Co for our move from Lakeside, CA to Wichita Falls, TX (yes we were escaping the current madness of CA). I was highly pleased with the service that I received from John Najera to his assistant Jerilyn in scheduling my move. The packing team of Tyler, Lewis, Joe and Frank were amazing! They did such great work packing all of our goods with the utmost care! The moving teams were awesome! Got my belongings to our new home within like a few days. I wish i could remember their names but the SD moving crew and the moving crew out of Dallas were both amazing!! This was COMPLETELY worth the money that we spent!! I highly recommend Allied Atlas for your moving needs!! read more

I received an in person quote from an Atlas Transfer & Storage representative named Nick. He sent me a binding estimate that was unsigned by email. I replied to him with my signature on the document. I was ready to choose this company but he refused to sign the binding estimate, which is standard practice, and it is not valid/enforceable if unsigned. He just left the signature line for the mover blank. All of the other companies I have obtained quotes from have sent me signed binding estimates. He said that he had "no way of signing it" and if it's my "deciding factor" to "go with another company." He also claimed that he has "been doing this for 7 years and (has) never signed a quote." Huge red flag and I'm considering submitting complaints to the BBB and the FMCSA. read more

Best moving crew ever! Hector Ortiz, Enrique and Mark were outstanding. So considerate of our items and our home. We have moved 7 times and have never had a better experience. The office staff was very polite and helped every step of the way. If you're moving check them out. read more

I came across Atlas transfer after inquiring about their connection, support and services with Susan G. Komen Foundation. I have stage 4 terminal cancer and I was looking for a company to not only help with my move, but potentially support a good cause in the process. This was the company I landed on and I'm so so very thankful I did! Tyler, Joey, and Chase came through as helping hands to get everything packed up on the truck, and assisted in transporting all of my belongings about 8 hours away. I moved from San Diego, CA. to the SF Bay Area. This company and these guys, showed up on time, they were always proficient in communication every step of the way, and took the best care of my belongings. I honestly felt like I learned a good amount about the moving process, tips and tricks to take with me for next time. I really appreciated their support, and how smoothly this entire move went, bc of their services. I would highly recommend them to the next family looking for a straight forward company, whose work is top notch! Thanks again for everything Atlas Transfer. ~M. Gonzalez read more

We contracted Allied/Atlas to move our home goods and furniture from San Diego to Folsom. The move had an additional request as we needed half of our furniture to be put into storage and the rest of it shipped to our temporary place while we wait for our new home to be built. The team pf Tyler, Marcus, Joey, and Ernie showed the utmost care and respect for our home and goods. They moved heavy furniture from the second story of our home and took the necessary precautions to ensure that no damage was inflicted on the home or to any of our goods/furniture. My wife and I were so impressed with how organized they were with inventory and monitoring what items were going to storage and what was to be delivered to our temporary place. When Tyler and Ernie delivered our goods to our temporary place, nothing was missing or damaged. The bottom line is it is worth paying professional movers when you need to relocate. Tyler's team is definitely the team of professionals you should hire for your move read more

Best decision we made was to higher movers for our out of state move! Allied/Atlas transfer and storage was great from the Beginning starting with Nick, he answered all our questions and helped with packing suggestions. Our moving team in SD, Tyler, Marcus, lewis and Joey were efficient and careful with our belongings. When Allied arrived in Colorado the team made sure all labeled boxes were placed in the correct rooms, the beds where assembled ... and the best part NOTHING was broken!! They are were professional and friendly..Highly Recommended. 10/10!!! read more

I entered into an agreement with Atlas Transfer & Storage Co. that stated they would come to my home, pack up most of my belongings in preparation for an out-of-state move, and store those belongings in their warehouse until I purchased a new home and was ready to ship my things there. John is the salesperson who came to my condo to estimate how much this project would cost me. The estimate I signed covered the packing and transport of my things to Atlas' warehouse for storage. The amount on this estimate was $6,570.66. When the packing team came to my condo to begin the work the packing team lead was visibly frustrated and told me this wasn't the job he was expecting to walk into. The lead went back to the truck and called John. The lead then told me that John admitted that he had made a mistake and provided me with incomplete paperwork and a partial estimate. I also spoke to John on the phone that morning and he said the same thing to me, that he had provided me with a partial estimate. Over the next few days, I asked John multiple times for an updated estimate but never received one. My final invoice was for $10,821. The original price quote was intended to help me choose a mover within my budget. $6,570 was a reasonable cost for me, so I chose Atlas. However, I am not comfortable with the final charge for $10,821. No matter how many times I reached out to John to ask if there was something we could do about such a large increase in cost, and no matter how reasonable I was, he would not respond. He still has not provided an explanation of the dramatic increase in cost. Because I feel I've been taken advantage of by John and Atlas, I've now had my belongings moved to a storage unit rented for this purpose and incurred additional costs. Additionally, one of my antique, handmade tabes was broken in transit from Atlas' warehouse to my storage unit. The moving team lead that day acknowledged this when he removed the table from the moving truck; he also noted it in the moving paperwork. When I tried to file a claim for my broken table, I was informed that because the damage did not surpass the $500 deductible, Atlas would not reimburse me. When I asked about the deductible, which I did not have the option to choose when I signed the second set of moving forms, I was informed that $500 is Atlas' default threshold for local moves. I did not have the option to choose the $0 or $250 deductible. I've asked my project coordinator two separate times for the name and contact info for Atlas' arbitration provider. I have not received that information. I also asked John and the project coordinator to have the business owner, Linda, reach out to me at her earliest convenience so that I could discuss this with her, but neither of them acknowledged my request and I have not heard from Linda. read more

The team of Tyler, Lewis, Joey and Frank were not only prompt and on time, they packed up our fully loaded 3 bedroom home with a gazillion knickknacks with aplomb and speed. It's always nerve wracking moving cross country and this was our second time doing so in 2 years so having skilled workers who did a fantastic job makes our decision to use Atlas to do our packing for us the right decision. Thanks guys for making the process easy. read more

Excellent Laguna Beach move from South Laguna to North Laguna in one day. The team arrived on time and moved all of our furniture and personal possessions in the course of the day. Very careful packing and great service as we decided where to place furniture in our new place. Professional team with a a great attitude and real pride in our work. Without question the team that we would use in any future move. read more

No problems with the staff that actually packs/moves you. They are good. It's the back office estimators and other staff that bait and switch you. Telling you you're getting a slight refund and then they come back with "additional charges" a few days later and just charge it to your credit card. Not to mention the estimate included things they didn't perform, but we were charged anyway. So, I'm disputing it with Mastercard. Same old bait and switch tactics that gives this industry a bad reputation. Sorry to say. Altas lives up to the reputation. read more

Lewis, Marcus and Joey did an amazing job packing our apartment. Our dog "Bruno" was so excited he ended up trying to help and they didn't mind it. Very swift and professional. Excellent job guys Thank you! Next day Johnny, Matt Devlin, and Glen did an amazing job as well. They were very nice and again were very understanding of Bruno running around. They are a blessing. Thank you again so much! read more

This our second move with Allied/Atlas. First to Europe and now back to San Diego. We couldn't be more happy with the service and handling of all things involved with an international move. Starting from packing in Europe to delivery in San Diego, everything went very smooth. Hector Ortiz and his crew just unloaded the container and delivered everything into our house very efficiently and at the same time very carefully. Being bale to relay on the people at Allied/Atlas to take care of all the details behind the scene is of great value in such a move. read more

Hector Ortiz and his crew were amazing. They handled everything very quickly and were so nice, respectful, and patient with our moving day mess of boxes. Enrique had great expertise with packing and disassembly techniques and was very kind to share his knowledge with us. Angel seemed tireless, always carrying amazing amounts of boxes. Everything arrived in excellent condition for our big move from California to Illinois. I'd highly recommend Hector, Enrique, & Angel from Atlas Allied in Poway, CA any time. Thank you so much! Relocation Consultant Traci McCormick was INCREDIBLE with handling all of my question and concerns and constant emails before the movers came. When my items arrived in Illinois there was only one item damaged (a broken leg on a dining room chair), which I consider to be a huge success! The truck arrived 1 day later than the window of time provided, but per our contract they will reimburse some of the payment due to the delay. They estimate the time to process both claims at 3-4 weeks. Thanks, Allied! read more

Selecting an interstate moving company has become a bit of a mine field these days. There's so many companies, or brokers, competing for your move business, and the reviews can be really scary! That's why we're so happy we went with Atlas Van Lines. They were professional from start to finish. Nick was our Point man/ manager. He personally came out and surveyed our property, and informed us of the process we'd be looking at. During the month or so we were packing and getting ready, if we had any questions or concerns, he was available. Karen in the office took care of all the scheduling, which we had to change a couple of times. She was awesome! Hector Ortiz was our supervisor for pickup of our things, and we're so glad we got him! He was super helpful and just awesome. The crew was great as well - Enrique, Angel, Juan, Benito, and Chris. They we're careful and worked like clockwork. It was a very stressful time for us, and they performed magnificently! On the other end when we got our things delivered, Eddie Tenorio was our driver. He was right on time, and he and his crew did everything perfectly! Just could not have been better! I can't overstate how good Allied - Atlas Transfer and Storage was. And the fact that there were no surprises along the way really feels great! read more

We were fortunate to have the team of 6 guys come and pack up our house with such efficiency. They called 30 minutes before arrival and wasted no time. They were thorough, respectful, hard working, and professional. Lewis, Marcus, Joe, Ernie, Frank, and Cole, we appreciate you!!! Find the dream team of packing and moving at Atlas Transfer!!!!!! read more

I was referred to Atlas and had the pleasure of working with Ashley Dunlap. I had previously worked with another company that turned out to be a brokerage and I didn't have a good feeling about them. Ashley came to my home, explained their process, and assured me that they handle the move from start to finish. I was kept apprised of all developments, delivery schedule, and they held my hand when I needed it. The packers went above & beyond in helping me get everything ready to roll. Our driver Dennis was great too! He called me a few times from the road & gave me an update on arrival time & reassured me that my stuff was fine! The unload went smoothly too. This is one great moving company!! read more

We moved half our house from California to New York in May and did a lot of research on moving companies. Traci McCormick, our relocation consultant, was the only person we talked to who gave us concrete answers to the MANY questions we had and was able get things set up so they worked like clockwork. Our driver, Dolono, and his crew did a great job unloading all our stuff to the right locations in the house and getting some of the furniture put back together, like the bed. They were very efficient and friendly. I highly recommend this team. read more

I will definitely request this company next PCS. Thanks! read more

Hector Ortiz and his partner Enrique were top notch. Hector responded to my voicemail promptly, and my texts within minutes. Both did a super efficient job of moving my things from storage, taking great care with my belongings, labeling and inventorying everything.

Hector Ortiz and his team delivered beyond my expectations. Spot on time management. Respectful yet an interaction with personality making the challenge of relocation a more palatable. Individuals working in harmony... gratifying. Most incredible is their care and attention to personal property. Preparation of the home was beyond expectation and appreciated. This was a two location pick up with the move collaboration to one property. Please view the photos taken representing the move in, the same care taken prior to beginning move out. Finally; recognition and with respect and appreciation for my agent, Traci McCormick. Wow. You made this happen. . Always available, precise and timely response- great direction... "own it" work ethic. I highly recommend the above. read more

This was by far the very best moving service I have ever had, and Josh was the best team leader of a moving crew I have ever seen. The local moving company in Columbus, OH where I started out (E. E. Ward Moving and Storage) started the process with excellence and clarity. This crew made it happen. Great care was taken with all my possessions; they went the extra mile to make sure everything was safe. Josh set up very clear communication throughout the process. What could have been obstacles were simply treated as challenges to be addressed and overcome. His arrival in Goleta, CA and his planning of the process of moving in was excellent. I had hoped to post this earlier but when you move cross country at the age of 80, your response rate is a bit slower. That Josh and his two crews made this such a stress diminishing experience is a tribute to this company and its values. I am grateful. read more

OK well I had previously given this place 5 stars because I thought the did a great job and deserved it. However I have since discovered that a bookcase was damaged at some point during the move and a fix was attempted (badly) in order to cover it up and I was not told that it had been damaged. Below are pictures showing the wood screws that were used to "fix" the bookcase. I have now nicknamed it Frankenstein . Joking aside... I am disappointed in the lack of honesty shown by trying to fix it and not being forthcoming with an explanation of what happened. And Since I trusted this company with my goods , honesty plays a big part in how I now feel about how my move went. Other than that it was a good experience. And maybe downgrading them to 3 stars is a little harsh , But I woke this morning thinking about it so it must be really bugging me. read more

I am grateful for having the agent Nick Sica help me plan out my move from Anaheim, CA to Atlanta, GA in September, 2024.

I recently worked with Allied to move from San Diego to Denver. Nick and Karen were my coordinators and provided an excellent level of service, answering all my questions. I stopped into the Poway facility to pick up some moving boxes, and everyone I encountered was eager to help and interested in my move. Then, Nick brought more boxes to my house when I needed more. Mark confirmed the move the day before, and the movers, Hector and Enrique, were incredible: They we're prompt, careful, thorough, and efficient. Allied is really the only choice for beginning-to-end quality moving services. They offer the cohesive, coordination of a corporation, with the care of a mom-and-pop place. read more
