Elgin City

Matt has been with us for 6 years, and has proven himself as a true professional. His credo is “Treat others the way you want to be treated.” Outside of work, Matt can be found on the basketball court or with his family watching old movies.

Why Us
At A Plus Moving Group, satisfaction isn’t a marketing phrase — it’s a standard we’re held to by over 700 verified customer reviews across Google, Facebook, and AuthorityMovers.com.
Clients like the US Army, Bank of America, and Airbnb have trusted us with their moves, and we treat every residential customer with the same level of care.
If something isn’t right, we make it right. That’s the A Plus promise.
Most movers show up with a truck. We show up with a plan. A Plus Moving Group handles every phase of your move: furniture disassembly, professional packing, secured transport, and full reassembly at your new location.
We also specialize in moves that other companies turn down — piano relocation, fish tank transport, IT equipment handling, and oversized or awkwardly shaped furniture. If it needs to get from point A to point B safely, we have the equipment and the experience to do it.
A Plus Moving Group is fully licensed and insured — USDOT #3920829, MC #1450184 — and every move we take on comes with full value insurance coverage. That means if anything is damaged in transit, you’re covered for its actual replacement value, not some fraction of it.
We don’t cut corners on protection, because your belongings aren’t replaceable by a lowball claim.
Life doesn’t run on a Monday-through-Friday schedule, and neither do we. A Plus Moving Group is available six days a week — Monday through Saturday — including holidays, because we know that’s often when moves actually happen.
Our crews are trained to work efficiently without rushing, so punctuality never comes at the cost of care. And if something urgent comes up, we maintain dedicated emergency teams for same-day service.
Our fleet isn’t one-size-fits-all — and your move shouldn’t be either. A Plus Moving Group operates a modern lineup of GPS-tracked trucks in multiple sizes, and you choose the configuration that makes sense for your move: the right van size, the right number of movers. That flexibility means you’re never paying for capacity you don’t need, and you’re never stuck with a crew that’s underprepared for the job.
Every A Plus Moving Group crew member passes a background check and is hired based on demonstrated professionalism — not just availability. Our movers show up knowing your move plan, prepared for the specific items involved, and briefed on any special handling requirements.
The values we hire for — discipline, honesty, respect, and accountability — are the same ones our customers mention by name in their reviews. That’s not an accident.
The price we quote is the price you pay. A Plus Moving Group operates on fixed, transparent quotes — the number you see before your move is the number on your final invoice, with nothing added on top.
We’d rather earn your trust upfront with an honest price than chase you with surprises at the end. That’s how we’ve built the reputation that 700+ customers took the time to put in writing.
