A-Available Moving Company, Inc.

Tom and his crew are very dependable, John and Chris as well as the 2 brothers that work there are amazing! I had them for 3 days. 2 move trips and 1 additional to empty our Pod. After going on day 3 of moving, I had left my whole wallet open and out on my desk at the bottom of the stairs which they went up and down 50 times day 3 and had other things out and while I didn’t mean to, just after an hour when I saw it, I wasn’t alarmed. I just knew by day 3, and that Chris was with this company for 24 years and John 10, I was ok and sure enough my wallet had everything in it! A small glass piece for a table had broke on the truck and it was replaced and dropped off in under 48 hours. Top notch service! Go Berwyn, great local business!!!

I was very happy with our experience with this moving company. The men were very polite and careful with our furniture. They took the time to wrap everything carefully and it was obvious that they knew what they were doing. And I felt the price was reasonable for what we moved. I would definitely use this company again.

I had the absolute best move I’ve ever had today with JR, Mike and Frank. They were quick, polite, efficient, and packed my storage unit to the brim just as I requested. They were careful to take care of my belongings throughout the process. The price was fair and came in under what was quoted. I couldn’t be more pleased and I will absolutely use them again.

We had a fantastic experience with A-​Available and working with Tom was a pleasure. Crew of 5 guys worked extremely hard and FAST. Came in under budget and zero issues with any of our furniture or possessions. HIGHLY recommended!

These guys were amazing. They moved us from a five bedroom house to a two bedroom fourth floor Condo in 5 ½ hours. Everything went smooth. I would recommend them to anybody looking for a mover. They were worth every penny.

Mike and his Family are the Best! Moved us from Oak Park to East Lakeview a year ago. This week they moved my son from Uptown to Ravenswood, amazing move. Highly recommend AAvailable! Feel free to contact me if you need details. Well priced, extremely careful, handle furniture and objects as if they belonged to them. Very nice people to deal with. Hopefully will not need again for a while, but I know who I will call first!

Very professional very fast would definitely use again. They don’t start charging till they get to your door and they get to work right away.

Love these guys! They’ve moved us 3 times. Very fast and efficient. Can carry seemingly unlimited loads with straps on their backs. Never a word of complaint about the giant quantity of book boxes and the multiple flights of stairs. All our furniture and mattresses were carefully wrapped in plastic and blankets.

AMAZING EXPERIENCE AND HIGHLY RECOMMENDED! They are the only movers I will ever use. Mike, Mark, and Tom arrived on time and in 4 hours moved 20 years worth of possessions. Even though they were fast they were meticulous and careful — everything arrived without any damage.

They moved me twice — once into storage, and once into apartment. Fast, careful, on-​time, and they had to move under snowy conditions. No dings in furniture or walls. Helped me set up my bed and futon. Couldn’t be more positive about them.

I’ve used them twice now and recommend them to everyone I know. I book the first appointment open in the morning and they are on time and extremely professional. Swift and flawless.

I have used A-​Available movers twice in the last 5 years. Both times the crew was not on time they were 15 minutes EARLY and started right away. We had some strange requests as we were moving some items around in the house, some to the garage and some to a separate location. They were extremely accommodating and made no mistakes. I think with any movers you need to be on hand to give instructions as they are not mind readers, these guys not only appreciated the instruction but sought it out to limit any mistakes. We of course treated them with respect and food and drink as it was a hot, dirty job. They were very appreciative and finished in an hour less than the estimate. Ask for the crew of Randy, John, Kenny and Chris and you will not be disappointed. I would call them first before I would call anyone else!

My girlfriend and I used A-​Available on the recommendation of our landlord. We had them for two days, moving my house and hers into a single place. The crew from A-​Available was on time, worked fast and got everything moved right on the estimate and with everything in perfect shape. The crew was friendly and worked hard for us. We were very happy with their work and will be using them again when we move into our house.

I’m not sure about some of the people who complained about their movers… these guys ROCKED!
I contacted another company and got a quote that was about $ 200 more than A Available. I believe I spoke with Mike, and he laid out the charges and timeline for me. I called him the day before to confirm details and add an additional stop, and he was totally accommodating.
The three man crew showed up 15 minutes early, promptly introduced themselves to my husband and me, and asked for their instructions. They took 90 minutes to clear out our 1 bedroom condo PLUS the storage unit we had in the basement, and another hour to clear out two storage lockers we had. All told, our move (with three stops PLUS the unload) took 6 hours, and came in EXACTLY on estimate.
The crew we had were efficient and polite. I would use these guys again in a heartbeat!

I got quotes from 3 other companies big and small and needed to move from Chicago to the burbs rather quickly. Just as the name states they were available. They were also professional, prompt, efficient, prepared, careful and reasonable. Four guys and two trucks got me out of our 3 bedroom condo and into our new home in 7.5 hours without any issues. Moving is never fun, but at least I know I won’t have to look around for movers next time!

BEWARE THIS MOVING COMPANY!!!
We chose to go with them after several people had told us how utterly professional and fantastic they were. Even after being quoted with the help of two movers at $ 99 an hr. for a move literally across the street, we still agreed.
What we got were too young men that were a half an hr. late (with no call) that cursed under their breath while moving, one of which was covered in jail tattoos. They broke the handle off our refrigerator because they had brought it into the wrong room and did not want to have to go back down the path to re-​position it so they FORCED it through a small doorway!!!
They spent 15 minutes searching for paperwork, all on OUR dime as they’re paid by the hour and almost 40 minutes trying to place the fridge appropriately! We’re paying $ 99 dollars for you to fix your mistakes???
At this point they’d not finished moving nearly what we needed moving and been here for 2 ½ hr.s. They told us they were leaving, they’d only quoted us for 2 ½ hr. s and would ONLY stay for that amount of time!!! After cursing and fighting they up and left, with no word or papers signed, just left! 10 minutes later they drove back and told us they would «cut us a deal» and charge us half price for their time!
We told them that we were STILL willing to pay FULL price for their time if only they would kindly finish the job for us. We still had things to be moved and were being left in a major lurch. The main man said,“I will not touch another box”, «are you going to pay us or not?»
We informed them that until they fixed our refrigerator or finished with the moved they’d signed up to help with we would not be paying. They left with a series of loud profanities.
The NEXT day, our house was very badly burglarized, the back door frame busted in, the kitchen window smashed through. We’ve lived in this house, in this neighborhood, for EIGHTEEN years and never before been burglarized. SERIOUSLY?! I know it’s common to be broken into when moving, but the fact that they were SO angry, SO crude AND the head of the company NEVER contacted us about our lack of payment. Occam’s razor tells me these post jail birds destroyed our home in rage.
Thus I say, BEWARE!!!

Absolutely the best movers. Careful, fast, prompt and reasonably priced. These guys will bend over backward to make your move as pleasant and efficient as could be. My only complaint is that the don’t go out of state!
They have moved my house and two of my kids without a hitch.
Highest recommendation possible.

A-​Available is seriously top-​notch! And their trucks are the ORIGINAL pink ones… just to be clear.
I have moved twice with A-​Available, plus my sister has had movers help her move out of her apartment from A-​Available. My family and I have been nothing but supremely impressed.
Everyone who works there has a positive attitude and is willing to go the extra mile.
My furniture and belongings have always been wonderfully wrapped, moved well and nothing has ever been injured (in fact, I was hoping that some lamp shades would have been injured so that I could dump them without feeling guilty — haha!). The movers are always expeditious, but careful and have managed to get furniture in and out of really tight spots. I was especially thrilled about the positive attitude they displayed when faced with a higher level apartment they weren’t expecting.
The owners are wonderful and professional.
I have been nothing but thrilled with A-​Available. They are reasonably priced, friendly, on time and all around super!!!

I have A-​Available twice now (6 years ago, and just a few days ago) — both times I have used these guys they are all business: very polite, courteous, prompt, and fast. These guys know what they are doing and get straight to work. Glad to see that quality businesses are still around year after year — I would highly recommend A-​Available to anyone moving.
Thanks guys!

After years of moving from place to place on our own (Uke Village to Humbolt Park to Edgewater to Uptown to Uptown again) my wife and I were tired of doing all of the heavy lifting ourselves and tired of recruiting friends for what I call «the worst favor a ‘friend’ could ask.» When it was time to move downtown, I called on A-​Available and they most certainly answered the call.
Although we were not completely packed, Mike and his team were very helpful in getting the move going and getting the truck packed in a timely, efficient manner. As soon as my wife and I had our butts in gear finally, the move eventually went great. Everything arrived in great condition and the rates were very fair. They could not have been more friendly and easy going beyond the fact that they were, most importantly, efficient and quick. I only wish they would have stayed and helped us get our closets and cabinets in order.
Although I don’t look forward to moving again, when the time is right, I definitely plan to call on A-​Available to give us the helping hands that we certainly will need.
Thanks again Mike!
