In their own words
Do not use them to load for long distance move!!!! Unless you want your stuff broken. I moved out of state (June 2023) and, based on a recommendation from a neighbor, I called Advanced Moving to help load the truck. They didn't drive it, the truck. But they were hired to load and secure the truck for the move. The lady who answered the phone said that they only have experienced movers and they will do a good job. Also, she said they would send 3+ people since it's a big house.
Bruce, I am sorry, to hear your items were damaged, but to say Advanced Moving damaged … More
The movers themselves were great. However, don't expect a quote over the phone to be accurate. We were charged over double what we were quoted. I understand it took alot longer than expected, but we went through a check list when getting quoted. A few hundred over would have been acceptable, but not over twice the amount. I feel like they low quoted us so we would choose them. We called multiple places and the others were closer to what we ended up paying which makes sense now.
Danielle This is the list you gave me over the phone: A king bed, crib, twin bunk bed, four dressers, two 4-cube bookcases, two 6-cube … More

In their own words
I cannot say enough good things about Advance Movers. From start to finish, the entire experience was professional, efficient, and completely stress-free. Eugan and Dustin were absolute rockstars. They showed up on time, ready to work, and handled everything I owned like it was their own. Not a single complaint, not a single careless moment. They were fast without rushing, careful without being slow, and somehow made a physically brutal job look effortless. Heavy furniture? No problem. Tight corners? Handled.
We had an amazing experience with Advanced Moving Company! Chris and Jay were absolute rock stars—fast, careful, friendly, and super professional. They moved our 3-bedroom home from Sioux Falls to Mankato in just one day without a hitch. Highly recommend them if you want a stress-free move!
Chris, Keegan, and Dustin are the absolute best!!! My mom decided it was time to sell the house she’s lived in for 43 years. My dad passed away 5 years ago so it was all on her to go through 4 decades, 1 child, and 4 grandchildren worth of belongings and it ended up being so much more than what any of us had imagined it would be.
Sheila, Thank you very much for your business and for taking the time to write such a lovely review. I greatly value our employees; they work hard and consistently strive to be accommodating for every move, as we understand that each one is unique.
We had an absolutely amazing experience with this moving company! The team that came out today was timely, polite, incredibly efficient and so hardworking. They took great care with all of our belongings, even with the massive number of stairs they had to deal with. From the start, the process was smooth. I called and got a quote over the phone and it was spot on in both price and time estimate. Everything went exactly as promised.
Thank you for the kind review Abigail. We truly appreciate it and working for you. Dondi Ahlers Owner/Advanced Moving
