These guys are great! The cost was very reasonable. They were in contact with us through the entire process. Very considerate in cleanliness and taking the time to place large pieces in the right spot. I would use this company again in a heartbeat and recommend them with complete confidence to anyone needing their services!

The entire process was great. From the time I submitted a quote request, the communication was great. The moving crew was skilled, friendly and professional. I highly recommend Adamantine Spine Moving.

Adamantine Spine Moving was hired by our piano dealer to deliver a piano we bought. Communication from them was EXCELLENT, they were considerate of how the weather could affect what is basically a huge piece of unfinished wood attached to various metals and other pieces of wood, it was clear that moving pianos was an average day at work for them so everything was very fast and straightforward (BUT they didn't have the carelessness that can come with being too comfortable about doing something often), and just overall I was really impressed with everyone's professionalism. Also they managed to drive an hour and a half to my home plus make another stop on the way and still arrive within two minutes of their estimate, which was definitely some sort of magic.

Quickly and efficiently moved a small console piano without difficulty. The team was in communication from day 1 until the move was complete. Outstanding movers.

We needed assistance with a piano move to install carpet over a 3 day period. Unfortunately weather interfered with the start date and the whole project compressed into 2 days. Adamantine (Jeff) was very accomodating to our needs and even finished up on a Saturday morning to put it back in place.

Lizzy and the sales team was excellent at helping me get set up for the right services. Max and his crew made my move nearly effortless, we had zero issues with the move and appreciated the team's positive attitude. 100% recommend and would use them again.

I arranged for a grand piano to be moved from Cedar Falls to Grinnell. The whole process was fantastic - completely stress-free. Communication was excellent, the movers were amazing, billing was easy and accurate. Easiest move I’ve ever been a part of, no question. Highly recommended!!

The entire move was perfect from first contact. Everyone was friendly and professional. Communication excellent. Totally up front about every detail and potential cost. In the end they did exactly what they said they would, when they said they would, and at cost that was actually LESS than quoted. Cannot recommend them enough.

Thank you so much for helping make this a successful move to Colorado. Mike and Noah did a wonderful job moving us into 2 storage units in Granby, CO. It was blowing snow and the temperature never went above 22 degrees, but they had a great attitude and were very professional.

Mike and the Spine Crew did a fabulous job of moving my antique upright Victorian piano. It was probably one of the toughest piano moves they’ve ever done with two very steep drives and wooded lawns to traverse and they got the job done. This tiger oak beast weighed a ton and they conquered it, handling the move with a positive attitude, sense of humor and utmost professionalism. And yes, it happened during the first winter snow to boot! I highly recommend them and I cannot thank them enough for a challenging job well done!

I would recommend Adamantine Spine Movers to anyone! Jeff was easy to work with on scheduling and also thorough to ensure he had the right equipment and staff to get the job done right. Kolt and Andrew both showed up with smiles and positivity, ready to do the heavy lifting. The whole crew earned a 10/10 from our family. I will call them FIRST the next time I need moving assistance!

This moving company was not only careful with our items that were being moved but the friendly, customer focused and professional team of guys were extremely impressive! I will always choose them for our next move (if needed). They treated us like family!Susan & Mike Graeve

Fantastic service, wouldn't have been able to do it without these guys. Prompt and deliberate execution, granted I've never worked with any other moving company, but I'd say the work they do is top notch. Beating out the competition by using their own wheels and muscle means you don't have to lift a finger. They'll pack and unpack, do all the heavy lifting, and cart your stuff where and when you need it, even setting up the appointment is a relatively easy process. Also in depth, the questionnaire for the individual move goes into pretty intricate detail, so nothing really comes as a surprise to see it go as smoothly as it did. Would recommend.

Great Company! Brooke answered all of my many questions(and helped reduce my stress level) as I was moving to another state. Jim, Rhett, Jack and Carlos loaded up my place in Iowa(in a short amount of time). Jim and Rhett were in PA in a few days and unloaded all of my stuff. Everyone was so helpful, professional and kind. I really appreciate everything that Adamantine Spine Moving did to make my move easy.

Jeff & Dylan moved a baby grand piano for me today and were great to work with! They worked well together and were very knowledgeable and experienced. I have no doubt that my 'baby' will arrive unscathed at its new home at my daughter's and have great care in it's journey! Thank you, Jeff & Dylan!

We used Adamantine moving company out of Iowa City & Des Moines for an out of state move from Cedar Rapids IA to Omaha NE. The moving crews on both ends were first rate. The helped with all our requests. The communication, timeliness, and courtesy were perfect. All household goods arrived in same condition they left. We used their storage facilities in Iowa City which was helpful while finding a new residence. We highly recommend Adamantine for moving.

The guys from Adamantine Spine moved a piano into my house and moved my old piano to a friend's house. They were fast, and very efficient. Both moves went without a hitch, even though there were some stairs and a tricky porch to navigate. I would definitely recommend them.
Shawn Kauffman

They approached my situation with a problem solving mentality, responsive, efficient, direct, knowledgeable, straight forward and the job was executed flawlessly. I contacted 3 moving companies online after hours on Thursday about an emergency move I needed done Friday ASAP. There was a night and day difference between Adamantine and the 2 other companies. These folks absolutely crushed it, I have only left like 3 or 4 reviews online since internet reviews became a thing. They knocked it out of the park with the entire experience and getting my specialized rush job done quickly and cost effectively.

Best moving company around. Kept me up to date as my move came closer, helped me prepare with lists, we're easy to schedule with and make changes where needed. The day of the move they showed up on time and did an amazing job making me feel comfortable loading my life and moving it to another town. Would highly recommend, as this was my 2nd time using them! Thanks Trevor, Ian, and Jack. Absolutely the best!

I had my second move in two years with ASM this past month and as before, they did a great job. The team was communicative, prompt, friendly, professional, and accommodated my (pretty significant) inventory under-prediction without any complaints. Highly recommend!

Delightful gentlemen! Skill and ability were their strength. Jeff coordinated delivery on short order, from Davenport to Cedar Rapids. They made light work of moving 2 pianos in the span of 1/2 hour. Highly recommend!

Navigating the interstate transfer of a grand piano - with storage needs between point A and point B as well as working with a 3rd party vendor - may have been extremely complicated. Jeff at Adamantine made it simple. At every point he helped troubleshoot and offered his expertise as needed. Above and beyond and then some! The delivery team was courteous and professional, too. I couldn’t suggest anything to improve even if I wanted to. I’d hire Adamantine again in a heartbeat.

Incredible service start to finish! Seamless move from Iowa to Montana. They made what I thought would be a very stressful situation, so easy and comfortable. They were great at communicating every aspect and next step to the moving process. I was always in the know and if I had any questions, they were answered in a very timely manner. I highly recommend Adamantine Spine!!

Excellent experience working with Adamantine, they were professional and very easy to work with. They were all very conscientious and careful with our things, hard working, and did a great job on our two day move across town for our family. They are also able to move pianos professionally which saved extra coordination and cost. Thanks again!

Jack was amazing! My niece brought a ton from home to move into her new apartment at the Hive at University of Iowa that our family wasn't sure how we'd be able to get it all moved in. Jack jumped in and helped us get everything from our caravan of cars to the fifth floor with ease and a smile. Anyone who knows me know that I loathe moving, but this was the smoothest college move in we've had over the past 4 years.You the man, Jack... Thanks for carrying all of our heavy $#!t

This moving crew was hard working and excellent! The morning started with a tornado warning and a lot of rain but the crew stayed with the task. They knew how to care for antique furniture and were very careful with all of my items. They were also very friendly and thoughtful. This team was excellent and I highly recommend this company.

They took great care with our piano and were very knowledgeable about how to move it without stress to the instrument and the owners! We were kept in the loop at all times during the move so we always knew what was going on. Consummate professionals! Would definitely call them again if I ever need anything moved in the future!

2nd time I've moved with Spine. They are awesome! Both times on time, professional, and very reasonably priced (no hidden charges or surprises). They worked with me on a very tight schedule and got it done without a hotch. They came in under estimate both times. I would definitely recommend Spine!
Pastor Will Layton

Jeff and Jim were professional, friendly, and communicated well. They carefully moved my grandmother's piano from my late uncle's house to the church I serve. It was a relief to know that this beautiful instrument and family heirloom was in good hands, and was one less thing to worry about in the midst of grief. I would HIGHLY recommend them for anyone in need of piano movers in Eastern Iowa.

Adamantine Spine Moving exceeded all my expectations! After 10 yrs in our house, the idea of packing & moving to the new house was overwhelming! Beginning with the initial call and video walk-thru, Trevor was patient and reassuring. He got me the estimate within a half day and easily committed to my desired moving day.The packers came when promised and worked miracles inside my cluttered house. Eric, Sam & Leia were super-efficient and polite. They finished faster than estimated, thus saving me money.The movers took full initiative and asked questions when appropriate. Noah, Nic, Tyler, Josh & Willie worked tirelessly, despite the heat. Nothing was damaged and they willingly rearranged the things I requested.On a scale of 1-10, my experience with Adamantine Spin Moving was a 15!

Excellent moving service. I wasn’t familiar with the Iowa City area and was unsure of which moving company to use. I’m really glad that I listened to a friend’s recommendation for this company. Superior service - nice and friendly movers, fast, but took really good care of my stuff. It was very well priced too. I highly recommend this group!

Tyler and Charles (moving crew) were great, polite and very personable. They moved out (loaded in Iowa City, IA) & moved in (unloaded in Rochester, MN) with a smile, were always very helpful, conscientious, hardworking and tidy. Receiving an email after asking how they did from the owner - Eric Jones - together with his phone # and offer for each completed survey they'll make a $10 donation to a local nonprofit working to make their community a better place, shows that this is a very upstanding & genuine local company that first & foremost cares to make the whole moving process as smooth as possible knowing that it is always so stressful. We are so very happy and glad that we went with them for our son's move instead of the many brokers giving quotes/low ball offers, from out-of-town/state companies, to get the business and not truly being honest about hidden charges. Us being from out of state we arranged everything over the phone. Everyone that we spoke with at Adamantine were always so pleasant to talk to, helpful and if a message was left to speak with Caleb Rogers (sales) {who was also great, always answered all questions politely and explained their whole process thoroughly}, calls were promptly returned, emails sent and text message updates received throughout. We would absolutely and wholeheartedly recommend Adamantine Spine Moving. We would for sure use them again if the opportunity arose!!!

Adamantine Spine Moving was the right choice for our in town move. They were up front with the fact that they may be a little more expensive than the competition but also that they would do their best to match other quotes. I did not even explore other quotes because I knew the value behind their pricing. Dillon was the crew lead for our move and he and the rest of the crew were all as professional, conscientious and efficient as you would hope to see when trusting someone else with your belongings. I cannot recommend them enough. It was a flawless move and money well spent.

It was a very smooth experience throughout.The walkthrough with Seth gave me a good sense of possibilities for the scope, and the crew was great the day-of: professional, courteous, and efficient! They texted before scheduled arrival time and arrived early. They were very communicative and mindful of my requests.I would highly recommend their services.

Evan and Alec moved a really heavy sideboard from the main level to the lower level and did it fast and easily. I know this was a tough price of furniture to move because my other movers could not get it down the stairs. But these guys could! And were friendly and professional to boot!

Fantastic experience from start to finish! Brooke in the office was very responsive & great to work with for the pre-move walk through, working through some date changes & just answering general questions that came up!

We used Adamantine to move our family piano. Pricing was very reasonable. Jeff was very knowledgeable about moving pianos and even thought to have us blow out the dust before bringing it in to the house. They were quick to get us scheduled and easily accommodated my schedule. Very friendly and courteous staff. 10/10 would use again! Thank you so much!

Our moving experience with Adamantine Spine was seamless. We started out with a video walk-through for the quote and they kept in touch with us weekly until the move to answer our questions and give us hints for packing. They did a full pack of our kitchen and on that day also prepared most of the furniture for loading. On loading day, they had 6 or 7 people and made quick work of it. Unloading took only 3 hours! They also helped us out with transporting some heavy furniture from the basement to the garage for disposal! Unfortunately, we had a several breakages, but they promptly made arrangements to either repair or replace. The price of the move seemed high, although I didn't get any quotes anywhere else, but it was worth the efficiency, speed and friendliness of all personnel.

The team who moved us were polite, friendly, and professional. Our move was seamless. We really appreciated all the hard work everyone put in to make our move successful. Also, our move coordinator/estimator did a virtual walk through to provide us with a quote. He was respectful of our financial needs and did not come across as trying to sell us more than what we needed. Overall, I cannot recommend using this company enough. If we ever need to move again, I know who we will be contacting. Thanks again all!!

From the every beginning of the moving process, the team at Adamantine Spine Moving has been superb! The estimate process was simple and easy to understand. Caleb did a great job walking me through the process and explaining the estimate when it was ready. The crew that came to pack my apartment (Dillon and Jim) were phenomenal. They packed everything efficiently and with great care - everything arrived intact and well-organized for unpacking. They were friendly and did great work throughout the move. The unloading was also super smooth and the team (Dillon, Jim, and Issac) were great! They unloaded everything quickly and took extra effort to make sure the furniture and boxes were all placed precisely where I wanted them, including a final walk through to make any minor adjustments that I desired. I can't say enough good things about this company and will happily be recommending them to any of my friends or family who need movers in the future.
