Adamantine Spine Moved my Grand Piano from Iowa to California at a great value and in great condition. The movers were pleasant, fast, and professional. They protected our floors and assembled the piano for us.

Our moving team was awesome in every way. They were prompt, communicated well (e.g., emailing ahead of time with tips for preparing and what to expect, texting us the day of to keep us updated) and worked hard. Our new home has a complex layout requiring them to move the truck to two different entrances easily unload and lots of organization to make that work. Despite the extra challenge they worked hard and finished an hour earlier than we expected.
They were also very considerate and careful with our items. We have used a few other moving companies and Adamantine is the first company we would rehire (and we plan to for our next move). Thank you Ian, Tyler, and Jeff!

My experience with Adamantine was great! The staff was very easy to communicate with and gave me all the information I needed to prepare for my move to Florida. The moving crew was friendly and polite and took great care with my belongings.

Our move to Kansas City was stressful but they made the moving portion a breeze! Every single person we dealt with from set up to the actual move was kind, friendly, & accommodating! I can't say enough how friendly & personable every single person was. They worked to make sure we received our stuff on our closing date & even blocked off the following day for us in case there was any hiccups. You don't find this kind of service much any more & we are so appreciative! This company is a 10+, choose them & you won't be disappointed! Our move actually came in less than our original quote also which is very rare.

My Spine Movers were friendly and communicative. They were constantly jumping in to take tasks off my hands and trying to do everything possible to make the move easier. This included bearing with me as I had a major panic attack over losing track of medications I improperly packed away. We had to cut open multiple boxes and they had to reseal them. They did so with a reassuring good humor. They complimented our new home (modest as it is) quickly off-loaded our goods providing special protective mats for the wood floors. A nice touch. It was a quick, professional short move that left me impressed and grateful. Tomorrow I will be calling them about helping me get rid of all my boxes.

I was in a hurry to find a new place and get moved and Adamantine Spine took a lot of the stress out of my move. They were very careful with my things and labeled the boxes nicely so I could find stuff after moving. I especially appreciated their responsiveness and communication. I got a heads up when they were on their way and when they were close to arriving, which was right during the expected window.
The quote range they provided was below what I ended up being charged, but I had them pack for me and was unable to provide photos in advance, so that's probably why. Spine isn't the absolute cheapest you can find, but they're not outrageously expensive and then you don't have to worry! Definitely worth it to me and I will use them again if I'm ever moving within/from the area.
