FAQ | ATX Firefighter Moving

HOW DO I KNOW IF A MOVING COMPANY IS LEGITIMATE?

According to the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA), a growing number of complaints have been filed against movers lately – many of which are due to the “fraudulent practices… of rogue movers.” Minimize the risk of moving-day delays, damages, inflated charges, or loss of possessions by hiring legal, certified movers. Here’s our license numbers:

Do I need to empty my dresser drawers?

It depends. If there are any breakable items in the drawers we recommend removing those item. If there are just clothes and soft items in the drawers there is no need.

How much should I tip my movers?

Although our movers are trained to never ask or hint for tips from customers, they are allowed to accept tips should customers feel inclined for the hard work they received. In terms of what to tip the movers, we encourage customers to tip whatever they feel is necessary for the job that was completed.

We had a very difficult move with a lot of heavy stuff on a hot Texas day. Five guys from the ATX Fireman Movers got it all done in four hours and for a great price. Everything was great, they were very respectful of the property and very respectful young men. If you have a difficult move, I would rate these guys to get it done for you cause they did a great job.

This was my second time using Firefighter moving and it was my second time having a positive experience. The 2 hour minimum made a lot more sense when I watched Dasean and Rangel move all of my heavy furniture down narrow stairs and get it loaded in exactly an hour. Would 100% recommend these guys to anyone moving in Austin!

These guys are great. They took such good care of our things, got everything done quickly and efficiently. We had a horrible experience with another moving company that showed up eight hours late and tried to charge us an extra $100 for just about everything we had in the house. ATX Firefighter Moving was able to get us in next day without a hassle. These guys really mean ZERO hidden fees. Great experience. Great people. Great service all around. Thank you all so much.

Response from the owner:Thanks for the review, Beatrice — glad we could help with your local moving for your Austin metro move. If you ever need packing, we’re here.

We hired them for moving our son from Austin to Dallas (his first apartment). Marquees and Cody did a great job and took care to wrap up the furniture in blankets and shrink wrap and were very easy to work with. I would hire them again! UPDATE: I DID hire them again and they put in a full days' work to get me into my new home! Thanks again for going the extra mile and making my move so easy!
