After moving unexpectedly back to Asheville from Los Angeles, we were in desperate need to get our…read more3 year old into a great preschool. We spent almost a year touring preschools in Los Angeles and then almost another year getting accepted into one of the best ones, which was in extremely high demand. In Asheville, there were fewer options comparatively. We toured several schools that had been highly regarded by different friends but as soon as we went to Roots + Wings School of Art and Design and met Ginger Huebner, the founding director, we were sold. The school was not only the perfect fit for our 3 year old and our family, but after attending a semester, it easily exceeded the ridiculously hard to get into school we were excited to attend in Los Angeles. Roots + Wings is a beautiful blend of creative art driven education with just the right amount of structure, set in a truly wonderful space to learn and grow. Throughout his first semester at Roots and Wings, our son grew so much - emotionally and intellectually. By giving him a comfortable and positive space to explore art and his surroundings, he learned problem solving, interpersonal skills with other children and teachers, and became much more independent. Most importantly, he had a blast doing it all. When we picked him up from school, he was always so excited to show and tell us all the amazing things they'd done that day. The kids created incredible art projects, had animals in the classroom, played music and had plenty of outdoor time. Our teachers were incredible - it's clear that Ginger is very careful when selecting who will be working at her school. The classrooms themselves are also beautiful. Tons of natural light fill every corner, the design and choice of every element in their classroom from the furniture to the wall colors to the flooring is spot on. Roots + Wings feels like a school you'd read about in Sweden (to be fair, the décor at Roots and Wings is Scandinavian modern). Ginger beautifully conceived our end-of-semester celebration, with all the kids artwork and projects elegantly displayed and a sweet and poignant ceremony. Overall we couldn't be happier with Roots + Wings and if you're looking for a creatively stimulating environment with just the right amount of structure for your preschool aged kids, I'm sure you'll love Roots + Wings as well. We can't wait for the next semester to start and for our other kids be old to enough to start attending!!

tl;dr - Do not use this company to move your belongings!…read more Much of our home furnishings were damaged, broken, or scratched due to packing on the truck and loading or unloading rush. We chose to pack our own belongings. We opted to purchase insurance to cover damages. When I filed the claim I was informed that the insurance did not cover damage to items not packed by them. Then why did they ask me if I wanted insurance since they knew we were going to pack ourselves? The lack of care to our belongings was enough for us to not use this company again, but this scam of selling insurance for something they know they are not going to cover amounts to fraud which they should be held accountable for by the legal system! Unfortunately they know that the average consumer does not have the resources to put forth the fight so they get away with it.

Needless to say I was furious and told that the General Manager Micheal Ziotnik was looking into the matter! # days days latter and no resolution and running out of time I canceled the order and scrabbled like crazy for an alternate.

I had to pack up and move my 1,500 sq. ft. warehouse into storage while my new commercial warehouse is under construction, so it was a very large endeavor. Many large and odd-sized objects, equipment, inventory, and furniture had to be carefully packed and moved over multiple truck loads, and this team REALLY came through for me in a huge way! I will definitely be using them every single time I need anything moved! Even more impressive was the short notice of time that they were able to mobilize and assist. I was trying to find movers locally and every other company was booked out for more than a month in advance, and Bruce was so amazing in working with my tight schedule and hard deadlines with my commercial lease date expiring to make sure we got this massive endeavor completed in time! Bruce was incredibly in communication and letting me know what was going to happen every step of the way. The rates were the best in town, and everyone on the entire team went the extra mile! I am just blown away by how wonderful the service was across the board. Moving is something that EVERYONE dreads and hates, but with Asheville Moving Company completely removes the stress out of process. Thank you SO much to Bruce and the entire team! You truly can't go wrong hiring Asheville Moving Company for your move! I have a bit of experience with moving. I know this sounds insane, but I have actually moved 25 times in the past 21 years (both commercial and residential...3 of which were cross country), so know that I truly mean it when I say that Asheville Moving Company is really the BEST there is!

They are professional, helpful, and do an outstanding job. We moved all of our house to a storage facility. AMC had to walk our entire house full of furniture down a steep driveway. They wrapped every piece of furniture with blankets, plastic wrapped the blankets in place, and not a scratch or dent was to be found. One year later, they moved our furniture into our newly built home. It was a repeat performance. These guys are amazing and care about your belongings and your home. Not a bump on the wall or a dent of anything.
