I've moved many times with several companies and this is the first time the whole process from pack to load to unload has been so quick and thorough. Previous companies spent three full days to do the pack and load while Armstrong did it in two half-days only! Very impressed. Coordinating with Cheryl has also been an A+ experience

Moving overseas can be very intimidating. Armstrong has been professional and reassuring from the get go. The team arrived on time, was courteous and professional, and packed our belongings with care. I'll write a follow up once our container arrives in Europe.

Experience was great! Cheryl was incredibly responsive and touched base with me frequently to make sure everything was ok. The company was also very flexible in accommodating the dates I needed, even if I moved during a busy time for moving companies (end of year). Definitely would recommend!
