We recently completed a cross-country move from Minneapolis, MN to Charleston, SC with MidAmerican Moving, and I can say this was one of the best moving experiences we’ve had. I’ve moved about 3 times in the last 10 years, and this was by far the smoothest. From the very beginning, MidAmerican Moving was thorough and transparent. We did a video estimate with the sales rep and also shared photos of our items. The team clearly reviewed everything in advance, which helped make the estimate accurate and realistic. Most importantly, the final price stayed within the quoted range. We chose MidAmerican because they offered the best overall value. We received multiple quotes some were unrealistically low from brokerage companies and some extremely high from major van lines. Mid-American landed right in the middle. Mike and his crew who handled the packing and loading were professional and well-prepared. Furniture was fully padded, mattresses were wrapped, and everything was neatly boxed and labeled. The delivery team also worked hard and made sure items were placed where we wanted them. Everything arrived in good condition, and the unloading was well organized. If you’re planning an interstate move and want a company that actually treats customers fairly, MidAmerican moving is the company to use

I found MidAmerican Moving through a Facebook ad. I worked with John to book the move and sent over a detailed inventory of my stuff. He stayed in touch the whole time, double-checking items, answering questions, and making sure the quote made sense. The final price closely matched the quote John gave me. One big reason I went with MidAmerican was that they let me pay by credit card. A few other companies I talked to only wanted cash or money orders, which felt a little sketchy to me, so this was a huge plus. After everything was booked, I worked with Alex from dispatch and everything went smoothly. I got a call when my items were on the way along with an estimated delivery window, which I really appreciated. Eight days later my stuff showed up as expected. High five to MidAmerican.

This is my 14th move in 6 years due to my work. I've probably used about 9 different companies and this time I decided to go with Mid-American and I must say LU AND HIS CREW WERE THE BEST CREW I HAVE EVER HAD RELOCATE ME!! He was very professional, efficient, careful and made me feel very comfortable with his services. They definitely deserved their tip ?? I HIGHLY RECOMMEND HIM AND HIS CREW TO ANYBODY LOOKING FOR A GREAT SMOOTH MOVE.

I recently moved with them for work and overall had a positive experience. The movers were organized and even helped me sort items between my apartment and the garage, since there wasn’t enough space inside for all the boxes. I was charged a little extra for the sorting time, but the driver explained it clearly and it made sense. They also took great care of my belongings, especially a glass-front cabinet that arrived without a scratch. One detail I really appreciated was the thick mattress covers they used — much better quality than the ones I had purchased at Home Depot. The crew worked hard and made the move smooth from start to finish, despite the really hot weather on both days. Based on this experience with my out-of-state move from Iowa City to Henderson, KY, I would definitely use them again.

I had a long gravel driveway, but the moving crew handled it without any issues. They arrived on time and worked quickly and efficiently. Within just one hour, my entire living room was completely packed and wrapped with care. Everything was well protected, and I could tell they knew exactly what they were doing. Delivery was made within the quoted dates, and there were no delays at all. The process from start to finish was smooth and stress-free. I’m very satisfied with the service and would definitely recommend them to anyone planning a move.
