I would like to express my appreciation to the alum internet page, University of Colorado at Boulder. Last summer I was moving from Houston, TX to Longmont, CO and referenced the section for discounts by moving companies. Listed were three moving companies. I contacted all three. Each came to my house to obtain an estimate of weight and bulk. However, only one, Golden Van Lines, followed up with a call and an estimate of the cost. I cannot say enough good things about my communications with them, both on the Houston end and with Golden Van Lines. No matter with whom I spoke, they were always polite, patient, helpful and answered my concerns and questions. At the last minute, I had to inform Mike McCarthy, Vice President of Golden Van Lines, that the Longmont address I had furnished was no longer valid as the contract had fallen through. Mr. McCarthy put me in touch with a realtor (I had none), emailed me some possibilities of homes for sale here, sent me estimates for storage should that be needed, etc. I was extremely touched by his assistance. I am a retired single lady. Over my life time, I have had seven major moves with the “company” taking care of the arrangements, insurance and payment. And yet, this was by far the best experience of all my moves. It was done professionally and with a minimum of stress. The driver, Alan Parks, was especially helpful and kind. As it turned out, I used the suggested realtor, bought a house the first week after my arrival, and am happily settled. Thank you for this service.

Moving your belongings can be an overwhelming and frightful experience. We interviewed several moving companies, felt the best about the representative from Atlas, and received excellent pre-move service. The day of the move quickly approached. It began with the van operator, Steve Bailey, and his team. They were punctual, professional, mannerly and even fun! Steve and his team, identifiable in Atlas uniform, worked hard and went above and beyond to be careful with our possessions. Steve remained in contact with us during the next couple of days, which made us feel very comfortable. Steve and a different crew then met us at our destination, again, in a prompt, professional manner. Here was another great crew! They were extremely careful with the boxes and the condition of our new home on a very wet and rainy day. Steve even allowed our two Dalmatians to sit in the driver’s seat of his pristine van for a photo for our moving announcement! We truthfully and happily report that there was not one broken item from this move. We give an excellent rating to Steve Bailey and Atlas Van Lines. We would definitely use Atlas for any future moves.
