Recently, I used Route 1 Movers for a Very Last minute move for a client of mine. Although, I was last minute booking the appointment, Jacob was very courteous to me and promised me that he would take very good care of my client and he did! On the morning of the move, he arrived early and he and his crew worked tirelessly for 5 hours. My client had very expensive antiques and they handled each piece with care and special attention. My client was even able to purchase additional moving supplies in the end. My favorite part was that we were quoted a set price and that price remained the same, there were no hidden fees, etc. They even moved the items to storage for us and stored them in a functional manner at the warehouse. Jacob and his team are now my "Go To" team for myself and all of my clients. I would recommend them to Anyone in need of great, trustworthy movers to use Route 1 Movers!

I had a 30 mile move from Woodbridge to Fredericksburg. Jacob and his team were the ones my wife and I chose to move us. He came through for an initial estimate of our household, and provided us the assurance that all would be well. On moving day, his team was VERY focused, VERY courteous, and VERY professional. Those guys worked hard and fast to get our household loaded on the truck and down I-95 south on a holiday weekend (you know how frustrating that can be). In all of the moves I have done in the military, this was hands-down the best move I've ever done. Took one day, clean, quick, and absolutely nothing was damaged, scratched or broken. I would recommend Jacob and Route 1 Movers as a fist choice for anyone who has a full house to move. These guys know what they're doing and they do it right the first time. Absolutely superior performance in every aspect. Thanks Jacob and your team for such a great service.

I have to admit, I was nervous going into this move. Partially because moving is scary and partially because I was arranging a move for my sister in-law. I spoke with Jacob and he helped put my mind to ease. The move was from where she lived in VA. Beach back up to Springfield. Not being there for the packing and loading made it even more scary but Jacob's confidence helped put me at ease. The truck showed up to load early, packed and loaded ahead of schedule. Their arrival here was the first chance I got to see the team in action. Quite impressive. They were polite, professional and worked harder than anyone could ask for. Everything made it in tact, the boxes were well packed and we really love the fact that all materials were included in the price. No nickle and dimming me as they were loading. (had that happen before with one of the larger companies)
The final price came right in at the $5,500 he quoted me. Worth every penny. Thanks so much to Jacob and his crew, they made a potential stressful situation easy.
Best Regards,

Route 1 movers made our move painless. From the first call to setup the move till the last handshake, they were straightforward, diligent and made sure we were satisfied at every step. They arrived early, worked tirelessly throughout the day and the final bill came out to about what the initial estimate was. Will definitely recommend them to others.

I'd like to say thank you to Jacob and his team for a super, professional experience extended to me for my first time moving w/a "moving company". Once I signed on with Jacob, he remained in contact with me for any concerns I may have and invited me to call him with any questions also. They took extreme care with my antique pieces of furniture, wrapping everything neat and tight. Though we ran into a two-day move, they loaded, unloaded in a prompt manner and even assisted in unwrapping furniture and boxes and helped set up these pieces. Thanks again for all your patience, professionalism and kindness!

Route 1 Movers did an in-house move for me. They moved a fire pit lounge set from my garage and up 4 flights of steps. They did a phenomenal job! There were no dents in the walls from the move at all. The movers were very careful. They even put the chairs together for me, which saved me a lot of time. I would highly recommend Route 1 Movers for your next move.

I contacted Route 1 Movers back in October 2016 about a potential move for mid-November. The first house deal feel through and I had to put the movers on standby, hoping to receive another contract on my house. Finally in February 2017 I was ready once again to move.
Jacob kept in touch over the months between the first and second attempt to move. He is the only moving company that kept in touch, explained every detail, and gave a fair estimate for my furniture.
Once the move was confirmed, Jacob and JR arrived at my house exactly on time, wrapped most of the furniture and loaded 90+ boxes into their moving van. They were professional and respectful in everything they did. It took two trips, mainly b/c I have so much stuff, but they worked tirelessly for 7 hours.
If you consider moving a work of art, then the way they filled my storage unit is a work of art. Perfect - and extra room for more stuff, NOT!
I will be calling Jacob and his team when I move my furniture from storage to a new home hopefully in the near future.

I highly recommend Route 1 Movers. My sister recently moved out of the area and Jacob was so wonderful about working with us. He called several times to make sure that we didn't have any questions and was always available if we did need help. On the day of the move he and his other employees were on time, courteous and above all very professional. The move went smoothly and they set up everything before they left. I highly recommend them for anyone moving.

Route 1 Movers did an excellent job. Jacob Kuhn, owner of the company, was prompt, courteous and attentive before, during and after the move. They arrived on time with a professional and respectful crew of hard working men and took great care to protect our belongings. I recommend them highly.

Dan Kraftson
Great work. The company went the extra mile to make sure things were done properly

I was very pleased with the moving experience I had with Route 1 Movers. The crew was very careful with my belongings.Everyone was very nice and that help take some of the pressure of moving away.If I move again I will definitely use your services again. I would highly recommend this company to anyone.I would like to especially thank Jacob, very helpful and a great knowledge of the moving business.

Jacob and his team did a fantastic job. His crew was polite, efficient and professional. All of my furniture was expertly wrapped and placed carefully in a storage facility. Once construction of my house is complete, I won't hesitate to use Route 1 Movers again to move everything back out of storage into my new home.

Having had a terrible experience with our movers from LV, NV. to VA in 2007, I was very skeptical about hiring any movers again. However, time and my age restricted me from a self move. That said, I went on line looking for local movers and contacted several. Jacob, from Route One Movers, was the first to make contact. To begin with, I was impressed by his sincerity and he seemed to want the job more than his competition. He was totally up front with me about all charges and how he and his crew would care for my things. I'm a retired Marine and Marines value integrity above all traits in a person. Jacob has this in spades. They showed up on time, turned to, and busted butt. The crew was courteous, followed directions well, and were always professional. These were not just a bunch of apes to carry things. These fellows were thoughtful and cared about doing a job well. The job was completed on time and within the budget guidelines established before the job started. I couldn't be more pleased with the noteworthy service I received and would recommend Route 1 Movers to all.

Route 1 Movers recently helped my wife and I with a very difficult move. Jacob and his his team were easily the most professional and best moving company I have ever experienced & I have moved over twenty times in my lifetime. From the moment we considered them to the day of the actual move, their concern was always our customer satisfaction and customer experience. From making sure we understood the contract to wrapping everything and anything just to make sure nothing was damaged. They even disassembled and reassembled anything needing the service. I am definitely using Route 1 Movers next time I need movers and I will most certainly be recommending them to everyone I know. Great job guys!

Arrived early, cleared the sidewalk and put down salt (was snow that morning), and even brought an extra crew member due to the weather conditions! Courteous and professional ... great job!

Jacob and his guys were amazing. From the very start, I knew my parents would be in good hands. Jacob explained everything, how it worked, what would happen, and how he would take care of us. He was flexible when we did not know for sure because of Hurricane Florence when the POD with the furniture would arrive. He told us no matter what day it arrived, he would be there with his guys and get my parents moved in to their new place. I literally called him the morning the POD was delivered and they were there 2 hours later to start moving things in. He and his guys were friendly, responsive to our needs, got the stuff in quickly, set the bed up, made sure the adjustable bed would go up and down, tightened any bolts, screws or whatever on furniture that needed adjustments, and did any and everything we asked for the move. Jacob was even willing to come back and get any boxes and packing materials the next day. One phone call was all it took. I have only good things to say about Route 1 Movers. Totally would recommend them and when we are ready to move in 4 or 5 years for retirement, Jacob and Route 1 Movers are the ones that I will call.
