I recently relocated from Durban to Cape Town in South Africa. I contacted AGS for a quote and an amazing lady, Caroline, came to do the site visit. I was impressed with the services and booked them. I was not disappointed. They were so helpful, both the office staff as well as the movers. My stuff was delivered as promised and the little issues I had were handled with respect, compassion and efficiency. I would recommend this company anytime. Infact I have recommended them to a friend who is also relocating. Thank you Caroline and team for making this move so effortless. Was truly a pleasure doing business with you guys.
