James, Billy & Glen were absolutely amazing when they came to pack up our house. They took extra time on the fragile items, and yet were still efficient, professional, were careful with our items, and friendly. They are the best moving experience we’ve ever had.I would recommend these three any day.

James and Gavin were super nice and professional when delivering our HHG and unaccompanied baggage from overseas. They verified we had all of our boxes, took things to where I wanted them in the home. Some extra guys came later in the day to help them finish up the job and were also very friendly as well. Overall, we are very satisfied with our experience with Apaca :) thanks!

I’ve done several moves around the world and I have to commend Alpaca Moving and Storage for their excellent work and professionalism. The crew size was actually reflective of the size of my shipment (other moves in the past sent minimal crew) and they were very respectful of the property. They had a system in place that made things move quickly and efficiently. The items that were disassembled at the point of origin were reassembled and reassembled well. If I have to move ever again they will be my first call.

We just wrapped up our best military move in 26 years and APACA was one of the heroes of the effort. Our 15,000lbs of household goods were packed up in Oklahoma City expecting a direct delivery move into a base home but our home was switched while we were on the road and APACA came through as the temporary storage for the five weeks we had to wait until we could move in.We move every two to three years in the military so we know the benefit of a direct delivery move that avoids several more sets of hands associated with loading and unloading to storage and finally on to your home. We were nervous having to add a storage stop to the move but APACA was fantastic from the start helping me collect motorcycles from the shipment that we’d... need for transportation during the unexpected five week wait for a home.They kept in touch over the weeks verifying schedules and on delivery day they arrived as scheduled despite how unpredictable the Air Force gate security process can be. The entire team was professional and careful with our household goods and the home. For the first time in 26 years we had zero broken dishes, glass, or picture frames. Plenty of furniture padding was used resulting in only one noticeable chip on a large heavy dresser which is truly fantastic. We’re realistic and experienced regarding what typically happens on moves with awkward heavy furniture and we were pleasantly surprised at how carefully everything was handled. Our bicycles suffered some scuffs, a few things needed some wiping down to return them to pre-move condition, and a couple extremely fragile aircraft and boat models will need some minor straightforward repairs, but nothing unexpected or unreasonable. Everything that was important to us made it in fantastic shape.Moving is hard and filled with opportunities to break valuable and important things but APACA impressed me so much that when it came time to set up ‘non-temporary storage’ for the furniture that wouldn’t fit in the base home we prioritized them #1 on our wish list to come back. I can wholeheartedly recommend the APACA teams, planning representatives, and leadership that we worked with on this move (Aug 2023) and I will put them #1 on our list when it’s time to leave Albuquerque.Thanks APACA!Chris & Tammyread more

APACA helped move our household when we moved from Albuquerque to Melbourne Australia. The 3 men that arrived on site- Randy Otero and his team (I believe his father and a cousin too) were a DELIGHT! They were so professional, so careful and cautious with our belongings. They packed everything with such detail and care and were very pleasant to talk to. We had a great moving experience! And we are so happy to report that everything arrived in Australia without a scratch or dent, and I am talking big pieces of furniture. Thank you Randy Otero and team!

APACA was assigned to deliver my household goods from storage during my PCS. The crew was on time, professional, and friendly. They were very careful when unloading and placing my goods and worked with me to check off every box that came into the house. No items were broken and the delivery was fast and smooth. Would recommend!

We recently had 3 shipments delivered to our house. Everyone was so polite and made sure to ask where we wants things and what things we wanted hooked up. I was especially impressed with Johnathon, he came all three times and was so professional and kind. You immediately feel like he’s a trust worthy friend. We hope when we eventually have to move we have just as great as an experience. Thank you!

They made my move easy and stress free. If you’re doing a military move, request them as a preferred company.

So my employer gave me three moving companies they would pay for as part of relocation. I looked up all three, Apaca had the lowest google review so I ignored them. I tried one company - they would say I'll call you right back and I wouldn't hear from them in a week. The second couldn't remember any details of my move from one conversation to the next. Finally, we decided to call Apaca since we were getting nowhere and nothing scheduled with the other companies. Glad we did. Apaca did a fantastic job. At the point in the process we called them, we needed to move fast. They were able to get us scheduled, move an entire house with a hot tub and sauna and a piano heavier then the hot tub. They were professional, extremely courteous. ... They made a very stressful move go very easily. The movers were absolutely fantastic - very grateful to have had them move us. Not sure why there were bad reviews - this is a great company to work with.read more

The only complaint I have is that it took them a few days to get my stuff to my apartment after they received my crates from the trucking company. Otherwise they were great. The crew was very quick and efficient at unloading my stuff and organizing it in my house. They worked late that day to make sure everything was satisfactory. The crew chief was also kind enough to point out to me multiple items that had been damaged by the company that loaded my stuff prior to being shipped. He said he didn't want to hide anything to cover for his or the partner company. I appreciated his honesty and have since made the appropriate insurance claim.Based on my experience with the packing company I'll likely never use a moving company again, but... these guys were indeed the best part of the whole process.read more

This company did their best to get my belongings to me as quickly as possible, despite hang ups with other parties. On moving day, only two men showed up due to the busy season. They worked tirelessly to unload and unwrap my belongings. The communication was great, and they took great care to ensure my satisfaction.

Albuquerque Moving Company

Moving for the First Time?

When planning a move, it is best to request a clear estimate from a reliable moving company. The estimate will reflect the number of items to be moved, the distance of travel, and any special care requirements. Once you accept the estimate, the moving company will designate a moving coordinator to oversee your move. They will provide you with an Order of Service, which will include all the details of your move. This document will list your chosen services, their costs, and the estimated completion times.

On the day of the move, professional movers will take great care in handling your belongings. They are responsible for packing, loading them onto the moving truck, transporting them to your new home, and unloading them. A Bill of Lading will be provided, listing all your items along with their delivery dates and locations. This ensures that nothing gets lost or misplaced during the move. Inspect all items with the team leader to ensure they’re in good condition upon receiving them.

Do Moving Companies Offer Both Local and Long-Distance Moving Services?

Yes, it’s quite standard for moving companies to provide both local moves within the same state and long-distance relocations that cross both state lines and International borders. This flexibility caters to the diverse needs of individuals and families, as moving distances can vary greatly. However, it’s important to note that not all movers offer long-distance services that cover the entire country or globe. Certain companies may limit the distance they cover. Always verify that a mover can accommodate your specific destination before finalizing your choice.

There are important differences between local and long-distance moves. that require different levels of expertise.

Should Moving Companies Have Certain Insurance Policies and Licenses?

Moving companies are required to have specific licenses and insurance to legally operate and protect their customers’ belongings. Movers.com highlights, “You should find a company that is properly licensed to operate in your state and follows all necessary federal moving regulations.” This ensures that the moving company is liable for any damage or loss that occurs during transit. Moving companies generally carry general liability and worker’s compensation insurance to protect everyone involved in the moving process.

Moving companies must have a USDOT license number to operate across state lines. This license serves as a unique identifier and ensures that the company complies with regulations and safety practices. You can verify a moving company’s USDOT license through the FMCSA’s Federal Movers Database. Moving companies operating within a state must obtain specific state licenses. Each state has its own requirements, which vary in name and specifications. To operate legally in New Mexico, moving companies must get the appropriate state license. In California, you need a mandatory CPUC license for operations, which is different from licenses in other states.

How to Gauge a Moving Company's Reputation and What Reviews Reveal About Their Services?

When choosing a moving company in Albuquerque, it’s important to consider its reputation. Customer reviews on platforms like Google and Yelp provide valuable insights into the reliability, professionalism, and overall quality of service. According to BrightLocal’s Consumer Review Survey, “46% of consumers feel that online business reviews are as trustworthy as personal recommendations from friends or family.”

Before hiring a moving company, it is important to check their complaint history. Use the Department of Transportation’s mover search tool, to get reliable information on a company. This way, you can avoid any surprises and make an informed decision based on factual data. Researching a company’s complaint history is a crucial step in ensuring a smooth move.

At APACA Moving & Storage, we are proud of the strong reputation we have built in the Albuquerque community. “We work hard to make our customers happy, and it shows in the great things they say about us,” states owner Chris DiJulio.  We aim to provide the best service so that every move is smooth and worry-free for our clients.” Our commitment to straightforward, reliable service is why so many of our customers have left positive reviews. We encourage you to read our reviews to see how dedicated we are to taking care of our customers.

What Kind of Protection Do Albuquerque Moving Companies Offer for Damaged or Missing Items During a Move?

Understanding the available coverage options for lost or damaged items during a move in Albuquerque is important.  According to the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration, “Your mover is responsible for the value of the goods you asked them to transport.” The most basic protection provided is known as Limited Liability Coverage, which is required by government regulations. This coverage compensates at 60 cents per pound per item. If a 25-pound TV, for instance, were damaged or lost, the compensation under this plan would be limited to $15. This coverage is provided automatically at no extra cost but offers limited protection.

APACA Moving & Storage offers different protection plans for your belongings. If you want more protection, you may opt for the Full Value Protection plan. This is the more comprehensive, but also more expensive, option for protecting your belongings.” This plan covers the current market value of any lost or damaged goods. It also covers the cost of repairs for items that can be fixed.” But please note that the plan only compensates for the current market value of the lost or damaged item.

Choose the Items of Extraordinary Value plan for high-value items like antiques, artwork, or jewelry. You must declare these items to APACA before the move to ensure their full protection. Failing to do so could result in inadequate coverage. Our owner, Chris DiJulio explains, “Our goal is to offer peace of mind and security for your belongings.” We understand that choosing the right protection plan is a significant decision. That’s why we’re here to guide our clients through selecting the best option for their move.”

APACA is committed to delivering a moving experience that combines efficiency, security, and customer satisfaction. Whether you’re moving across town or the country, your valuables will be protected in a way that best suits your needs.
