495 Movers

We moved from the Washington, DC area to Texas in August and the entire experience was very favorable. From the beginning of our decision to contract with 495 to the final delivery, we were treated in a courteous and professional manner.

This was our fist move in 12 years (and first long-distance move in 16 years) and choosing a moving company in and of itself was a stressful experience. As a military family, our previous moves were much more cut and dry, leaving us with no experience in choosing a mover. We received quotes from several companies and, while 495's was the highest, it was also a "not to exceed rate", which greatly reduced our stress level, knowing that we wouldn't be hit with hidden costs.

We arranged for household packing for our move, making for a two-day process. The packers were courteous, efficient, and professional from start to finish (even assisting in loading one of our cars for the cross-country drive).

Less than seven days later our shipment was delivered to our new home in Texas. Again, the experience was top-notch.

Throughout the process, the customer service was excellent. Tom was always available to answer whatever concerns or questions we had.

All in all, the move was a very pleasant experience and made a very stressful time a great deal less stressful.

Moving can be a very stressful experience, especially a long distance move, but 495 Movers made our transition easier than we had ever anticipated.

We couldn't be more pleased with the way Julio, Leo, Effry, and David carefully wrapped our many household goods and fragile collectibles. The company stored our items until we had found a new home in Florida, and then they delivered everything right to our new home on time!

The crew was extremely courteous and efficient throughout, and upon unpacking, we did not find a single damaged item.

We recommend 495 Movers without any reservations. They are terrific!

After comparing quotes from several moving companies, confused with hourly rates, different amount of hours quoted and charges of packing material etc., I decided to go with 495 movers. The owner Moti agreed to a flat rate. I knew he understood the risk, but appreciated his trust. I promised to finish my end of the packing and properly mark all the boxes and furnitures. On the moving day, he sent 4 men crew, Santos, Paul, Gustav and Fransisco, and two trucks, arrived on time at 7:30am. They moved efficiently and with care. I never saw then bumping into anything. These are true professionals and took pride in their work. They made my move the easiest ever. I highly recommend them.

495 Movers showed up very promptly, after a rep confirmed my scheduled office move 24 hours in advance by phone. They loaded their truck in record time, and showed up at exactly the hour that the office building to which I was moving allowed movers access via the loading dock (7:00 pm). They unloaded everything in under a half-hour, hooked up all my computer components (since I am visually impaired and this requires some effort, I was impressed), and the entire move from beginning to end was done in under 90 minutes. Highest recommendation for professionalism.

Originally when I called to setup our move, 495 Movers were a little higher than the other quotes I received, however I felt the initial phone call was more professional than the other companies, but one of the deciding factors for me, was the when Tom inquired about the list of furniture they would be moving. After our phone call, he sent an itemized list of the furniture I mentioned that I would be moving. This seems minor, but Some companies didn’t even seem to desire to know what items they would be moving. Most other quotes were random and off the cuff, which meant they had a potential to be higher on the day of the move, when the movers actually got out to our home and saw what they had to move. However, I still was to ready to pull the trigger until I spoke with Tom of 495 Movers again and mentioned to him my concern of moving my big screen TVs and the disassembly and reassembly of my beds. He assured me that the movers would be professional and were used to handling these types of moves. So, I took multiple factors into account before I made my final decision: There were great reviews that didn’t seem to be fake reviews, their BBB rating was A+, the original recommendation I received, and the overall professionalism made me choose 495 Movers, even with the higher quoted price. I’m happy with my decision. The movers arrived on time on a raining day, and when it began to rain hard, they closed up the truck, and came in the townhouse and continued to pack and wrap furniture. They did not waste time during the move, which was another concern of mine. They took care with the larger items as well. We had an incredibly heavy armoire that they got around tight corners, down a flight of stairs, and back up a flight of stairs in our new place, without damaging it or the walls. Overall, my family was very pleased with the movers. Thanks to Tom and the movers, Freddy, Jose, and Alexis. Awesome job.
