Michael Enrique Cordero – Montgomery, AL

I have been in the United States Marine Corps for over 26 years and I can state that my latest move was the smoothest I have had and I attribute that directly to Señora Olivia Foster (334-262-6666). This young lady works at ADMIRAL MOVERS – (MONTGOMERY, AL) and she is certainly an asset to not only her company but obviously to all military members using that moving company. Señora Foster was understanding, thorough, and quite fast in responding to any and all concerns we had. She definitely made this move smooth with regards to finalizing our move dates on both ends. I just pray that I get somebody as good as her for my family’s next military move.

Semper Fidelis and may GOD Continue to Bless America!

25 year relationship with McAlpine Tankersley Architecture

McAlpine Tankersley Admiral Movers

As Admiral Movers marks 25 years in business, it causes me to be somewhat sentimental. Some of the best times were rewarding yet difficult. Growing, learning, building our reputation and now here we are as one of the largest in our area. I could not begin to pick out one particular project that is my favorite because there been so many and each one of them unique.

In March of 1989, George Azar and I set out to create the best local moving company in Montgomery. As we began to set up a corporation we received a phone call and booked our very first move. Because of the type of furniture and the talent of the customer, it turned out to be no ordinary move.

The work was being done for Bobby McAlpine in his own personal residence. Mr. McAlpine was remodeling his house and updating the furnishings. Our task was to pack up everything from the house, load the furniture, take it into storage for about two months, and then bring it all back and place it to the exact specifications of the customer.

Shortly thereafter the architecture firm that Bobby McAlpine had founded was moving their office into what has become my all-time favorite structure, The Sabel Mansion. That building on Perry Street is an incredible piece of architecture that continues to stand today as a marvel in my eyes.
McAlpine Tankersley Architecture has now grown to serve clients nationally and internationally, creating some of the most amazing residences and commercial buildings. Bobby McAlpine’s interior design practice, McAlpine Booth & Ferrier Interiors, has sculpted interiors along with McAlpine Furniture that creates handcrafted furniture to complement the incredible architecture that the firm designs. We have enjoyed many incredible projects from them as well as the architecture firm itself.
Many of the projects that we have done consisted of receiving pieces that are not of the average nature and require some unique measures to get them to where they need to be and get them installed. They offer some pretty unique logistical challenges and with our talented movers to make it happen is fun.

McAlpine Booth and Ferrier Interiors

Whether it be a cabin at Lake Martin, a historic home in Old Cloverdale, Atlanta, Nashville, Rosemary Beach, Colorado, or New York you can always count on Admiral Movers to provide the highest level of service to you and your clients.

Needless to say the furniture pieces from McAlpine Home are one of a kind. At times they present some issues that we have to overcome – developing or building special protection so that they can transported safely during shipping.

We have moved 1100 pound granite slabs up three flights of stairs to make the right setting for a table. We have created several joist and pulleys to lift things over balconies or back porches to get items of extra-large size into the right places.

Many times in the overseas trips that are taken, they find pieces and have them shipped to us. Then we have to make arrangements for special shipping and interesting crating for those items, such as an 18th-century bench of grist Mill Stone and massive statues.

Another unique requirement is because of the deadlines for photographing and/or presenting a party or showing the new project off to the clients. Speed and efficiency is typically an important ingredient.

One memorable piece as we went into the new A&P Lofts for the office of McAlpine Tankersley in Montgomery was a 19 feet tall 15 foot wide mirror gold leaf. Because of the size, it was required that the door, door facing, and door jamb come out and some of the bricks be removed. It would not fit into the elevator and the stairs were zigzag, so we used 12 men to pass it to one another.
It was probably about 800 to 900 pounds of very fragile gold leaf frame mirror. It had to be touched very delicately because of its size and composition. The way it was heading up the stairs we had to take the crating and all the padding off. The danger was that at any time the glass could have shattered. Our people had to work harmoniously together for the transportation to go smoothly.

One time we showed up in Nashville with about $2 million worth of very high-end furnishings only to find out that the front Archway up the hill blocked us from getting our truck up close to the building. So we created a rope and dolly cart system and frame to pull the big pieces up and down and unload the truck.

Bobby McAlpine Quote about Admiral Movers 

Bobby McAlpine says “Admiral Movers has moved me more times than I can remember. They are practically on speed dial as I continually assemble and strike the sets of my house and many clients’ houses. They are a trusted part of the stable of talent and strength it takes to do this work and live this life of design. For more than 25 years now we have transported and assembled beauty coast to coast, an adventure in arms that will see me through many more.”

To so many of our customers, but especially to Bobby McAlpine, Greg Tankersley, Mary Robin Jurkiewicz, John Sease, Chris Tippet, Ray Booth, Susan Ferrier, and Richard Norris – we appreciate the confidence you’ve had in us to handle your work. And just as importantly, that you have trusted us to take care of your biggest, best, and most valued customers. We have a tremendous group of clients that have been with us from almost the beginning. We view their continued patronage as the greatest award and recognition.

Southern Accents Rosemary Beach Showhouse

Southern Accents Rosemary Beach Showhouse

In early 2000, one of our clients, Interior Designer Phillip Sides, asked us to meet with us concerning an upcoming project. Over our twenty years in the business, we have moved many whole hospitals, large corporate headquarters, and labs for the EPA and ADEM—but the project that Phillip had for us would end up being one of our most challenging and memorable.
Interiors, Interior Designs, Beach house, Rosemary beach, High end movers, Admiral Movers
The project was for a new development called Rosemary Beach along highway 30 A in Florida. The client was Southern Accents magazine, and this was going to be for their highly publicized and well-known feature: the Annual Showhouse. Each year the magazine would construct a lavish home and pick a top interior designer to furnish it from top to bottom, exhibiting their unique style. The magazine would feature detailed photos of each room with in-depth descriptions and attention to detail.
Our job? To receive all fixtures, furniture, artwork and interiors for Southern Accents over a period of about a year, then deliver and set up the house in time for the grand reveal. As soon as we agreed to take on this task, trucks began showing up and the task of keeping an accurate inventory began. It soon became obvious that this was not going to be an ordinary project. The sheer volume made it an intense and complex job. The importance of each piece being received added to the level of stress. Juggling purchase orders and inventories from so many different companies was quite a challenge to keep up with—not to mention making sure that everyone was kept abreast of the progress. We did not doubt that we could perform to the standards needed for this level of clientele. Southern Accents and Phillip Sides gave us this task because of our reputation in the business, and because of the quality of work we had done for Phillip Sides previously.

Deliver Install

A little over a year later, all of the interiors were in and ready to go. We ended having six truck loads—one of our largest projects. Upon arrival we were confronted with our next challenge: getting all of the inventory into the house. Rosemary Beach is of the New Urbanism design, which by definition means it was not accessible at all to our large trucks. Not to mention that the whole area was still under construction with trucks and equipment all around this signature home. Because of the tight space and active construction, we used the Rosemary Beach Town Hall to unload, store, and assemble all of the furniture and fixtures before moving them to their final location. We then carefully placed the items on piano boards and walked each piece of furniture over a third of a mile to the destination site. Needless to say, with six truckloads there was quite a bit of walking back and forth.
Rosemary Beach Town Hall Phillip Sides, 30-A
The next challenge was the weather. As we loading the items on the trucks and began the drive to the beach house a hurricane was heading towards the Gulf. As the day progressed and we continued our work, the rain and wind began to pound the shore. For the safety of all our crew and the items in our care, we had to secure everything and retire for the night. I remember wondering a few times that night if there would even be a home or furniture come morning.

Interior Design Project Management

When day dawned, we awoke to find that the project was spared. We finished our delivery and the signature home was photographed and featured in a full issue of Southern Accents magazine. I was in town a few days ago and saw that the home had recently sold for 7.5 million dollars. While Southern Accents is no longer being published, the home and the whole project amazes me still. We have had many moves and many challenging projects on the coast since that time, but none are as memorable as the 2001 Southern Accents Showhouse.
If you should need help with a project large or small we are here to help, even if it is just for advice. Call 877-816-3454 or visit Admiral Movers.

Plastic Crates for Moving only Make Sense to the folks trying to Sell or Rent Them

Plastic Crate Moving for an Office Move are an Awful Idea

Plastic crate moving makes perfect sense if you are the company trying to sell or rent them to customers. If your company is relocating plastic crates make zero sense. Many of these so-called office movers and the manufacturers are pushing crates as "green" because they are reusable. The green part is debatable, plastic takes a ton of energy to produce, hurt the oceans, and are filling our landfills. Plastic crates rank low on bio-degradability. There are also reusable cardboard totes that require no tape and because of their construction can be reused dozens of times. Cardboard totes also fold down flat and are easy to store in a small space if you are so inclined. But remember the biggest productivity killer is once boxes and plastic crates are sealed and or stacked you are out of business. My goal is to help you say no to plastic crate moving.
Plastic Crate Moving Box-lesss is best Plastic Crates Office Move Awful Idea
Plastic Crate Moving for Office Moves an Awful Idea

Plastic crate moving - just say NO!

There are also situations where items need to be stored for a long period of time so you have to use boxes. But, if it just needs to be mobile and then accessed, the gondolas are so easy.
For a move (especially an office move) plastic crates actually expand the size of your move. Plastic moving crates weigh a whopping 8-9 lbs each when they are empty. And average office move would have 120 crates so you have just added around 1,000 lbs to you move. Increased size means more work for your staff, and the movers, more truckloads (more fuel burned) and more cost. Also the extra downtime will cost you in productivity which means lost revenue to your company.

The commercial movers truly focused on serving their customers employ a box-less gondola system. Bookshelves on wheels of different sizes, E-carts, AirGlide computer wraps, speed packs, and secure relocation methods. Everything you might normally place in a box can go on the shelves, since the shelves lean inward at 12 degree angle. Instead of a top we use heavy-duty shrink-wrap to secure belongings in order. You can clearly see your contents (or we can use seals so they are private) and the real beauty is no packing. They can be loaded in a tenth of the time of boxes, or plastic (box) crates. But best of all you have access to all your contents as soon as they arrive at destination. You avoid the moving hangover associated with a box or plastic crate move. Your business is up & running immediately allowing you to begin generating revenue.

Avoiding plastic crate moving saves time money

Because gondolas load in about 10% of the time a boxed or plastic crate move takes you avoid shutting down the office, and your coworkers avoid all that time packing & unpacking.  Gondolas also allow 2 men to move what would normally take 4-5. They load onto and off of truck so much faster that boxes & plastic crates. Less moving time means a lower move cost. Less downtime means less payroll leak for your company. Once you have enjoyed the ease, efficiency, and lowered cost of a box-less gondola move you will never return to plastic (boxes) crates or cardboard boxes.
Why are so many so-called office movers pushing the plastic crates? they don't know any better. Or they now have so much invested in plastic crates they have no choice but to keep selling them. Gondolas, with our engineered non marking, non skid wheels are expensive. The expense prevents many of these "office movers" from making the next step. We have done it because at the end of the day it is the right thing for our customers. A true " crate-less" and "box-less" move is the ultimate in GREEN, and sustainable. I have been using most of my gondolas for over twenty five years. See more at www.admiralmovers.com Call us at 334-262-6666 we are here to help.

Montgomery Office Moving: Why Traditional Methods Simply Don’t Make Sense

 Any company that has moved offices knows that it can be an expensive endeavor, but when it comes to moving records and securing chains of custody, the drain on time, money, and resources can be even greater. Traditional Montgomery office moving services boast about their use of plastic crates, calling them eco-friendly and efficient versus the traditional cardboard box moving method. The larger issue, however, is that all forms of boxed record moving take a toll on the environment, cost too much, and are not 100 percent secure.Montgomery office moving  Disadvantages of Traditional Record Moving Methods Traditional record moving procedures no longer make sense. Not only does the business pay for the cost of the cardboard boxes—at an inflated rate—but the business pays for the record moving service itself. To preserve the chain of custody and protect customer identities, businesses have to pack and prepare their own boxes. Therefore, one or multiple employees are taken away from their usual jobs to help pack and prepare documents for shipping. This takes time away from the business, reduces productivity, and increases downtime between moves.  Unless the company has hired a Montgomery office moving company to provide total move management services, once the business arrives at its new destination employees will again be tasked with taking the time to unpack, reorganize, and manage the records. This means additional time wasted until the company can reopen its doors and get back to business. The boxes may be recycled or simply thrown in refuse, thus going to waste.  Plastic Crates Do Not Equal “Green” Moving A new trend has shown up in the record moving industry: plastic storage crates. Companies market these crates as “eco-friendly” moving and storage options. The issue, however, is that making these plastic crates takes a considerable amount of energy and resources and creates waste in the process. Though these are reusable and more durable than cardboard moving boxes, plastic crates still have the same issue: time wasted packing, moving, storing, organizing, and securing the chain of custody.  Box-less Gondola Office Moving Systems The only cost-effective, truly “green” office moving option available is the box-less moving system. A hybrid Montgomery office moving and records management company uses reusable gondolas that are wrapped, sealed, and stamped to preserve the chain of custody, eliminating the hassles associated with traditional box or crate moving. During the packing or unpacking stage, records are easily accessible and unloading takes a matter of minutes, as opposed to the hours it takes with traditional moving systems. The Advantages of Box-less Office Moving Systems A Montgomery office moving company that is concerned with reducing the impact on both natural and business resources will have mastered a box-less gondola records moving system that:
  •        Takes 90 percent less time to pack and unpack records for moving
  •        Takes less moving personnel, thus saving the company on moving costs
  •        Makes loading faster and easier than traditional crates or boxes
  •        Causes less downtime between moves
  •        Is cost-effective, efficient, and eco-friendly
 The Disadvantages of Traditional Office Moving Systems Conversely, office movers stuck in the old way of moving are still using cardboard boxes or plastic crates that:
  •        Wastes time, productivity, and supplies
  •       Takes four to five movers to relocate files
  •        Creates extensive downtime before, during, and after the move
  •         Costs more in moving expenses
  •        Are inefficient, not eco-friendly
Businesses looking to go “green” while also lowering the expense of office moving need to not only consider the initial cost to move, but the time, productivity, and employee waste that goes into the move as well. By taking all of the factors into account, a business can make its move as efficient as possible and save a little green in the process.
