Century Moving Services

I'll try to keep it as short and simple as possible. I went online to look for homes and apartments in Kansas City. Little did I know that I was signing up a for list of movers to call me to offer their business. Although my mind wasn't completely on movers as I thought I was going to move myself, I entertained quotes. Century Moving Services were one of the MANY companies that offered their moving bid. They gave me a great rate and the service far exceeded what I thought movers were capable of. I would gladly refer them to anyone that needs a professional moving company. A+ work all around the board!

Move size: 2 Bedroom Home Service cost: $1600

Tim was the guy I spoke to on the phone. Knew a lot about moving and gave me a quote for a one bedroom apartment. I shopped around just to make sure that the quote was good. This company was a little higher but it included everything in the service so I decided to go with them because other places tacked on fees for every little thing.

I have a few guitars and a drum set that I asked the guys to be extra careful with. I think one of the guys was Miguel. He made sure everything that was fragile was wrapped up really well in blankets and the other guys helped him.

There were a lot of stairs because I lived in a walk-up apartment. The guys put a lot of energy into moving everything and how to get it down the stairs since it was such a narrow area. Obviously, they were successful and all was good. I moved to a high-rise so It wasn't an issue to get the furniture into the new place. I am sure they were happy about that.

Nice people and an easy move. No complaints.

The sales rep gives different estimate and when truck driver comes and after loading all the items, comes up with $1700 over charge saying I have to much items which were reviewed by sales rep. Totally Scam. Never ever go with this company. If you do be prepare to give double the amount. Atlas charged me $2900 for the same items for coming here in Rochester, NY from Chicago, IL. Century charged me $4600 for the less amount of item for moving back to Chicago, IL. I had not purchased any new big furniture in my stay here for 7 months.

They gave us a binding quote of $1,804.20. After everything was loaded on the truck they presented paperwork saying our bill was going to be $4396.81.

They refused to unload our belongings unless we first signed paperwork saying we received all of our property.

The driver, Alex, hired three random guys to meet at my house to unload my belongings. The guys told me they didn't work for Century, and just do this to earn extra money. Alex drug my couch fabric side down on the sidewalk. I also had several damaged pieces of furniture, as well as damages to my house.

Alex then refused to abide by the contract and reassemble the furniture that was disassembled by the company at the pickup. He then called my wife and I liars when we listed everything that was disassembled. He followed that by accusing me of, "Causing Trouble" when I insisted he abide by the contract.

Some of my property was thrown from the truck onto the ground.

I spoke with one of the company partners, Zeke, three times about my dissatisfaction. He stated he has received complaints before about Alex, yet he remains employed. Zeke assured we would resolve this to my satisfaction. Zeke called me back a week later and offered a $200 "Good Faith" refund. I told him that was uscceptable, so he said he would talk to the other partners again. He called back almost two weeks later with an offer of $350. I again said that was unacceptable. We talked a little bit longer, which resulted in him withdrawing his offer, stating that I didn't deserve anything. He then called me a curse word, and hung up on me.

I spoke with Anthony, who was very nice, and told him everything I would be taking with me on this move. I paid the required deposit as required. Once the movers arrived we first sat down to review the cost. Paul, the foreman, walked through my residence and then sat down and told me there would be an additional $1200.00 dollars. I said no way I'm paying that. He called the salesperson Anthony and they talked. Anthony said he would talk to him and have him give me the best discount he could. Paul walked around my residence again and I be damned if he didn't come with another price that wasn't inclusive of the additional $1200 he told me about earlier. My price was now double the original price of $2100.00, he told me it would be $4000. I told him he could leave. There was no way in hell I would pay that price. I would say beware and don't accept what they say. Fortunately, they didn't load anything on the truck. Thank God.

I am a very experienced mover, I am a traveling nurse so I am well aware of all the speed bumps that occur when you move. I move probably every two months and need to always have a dependable mover on speed dial. Lately I have been going through movers like it was my job, literally. I am very happy and proud to say that I have found a mover that fits all of my moving needs for my moves in the northeast, that name would be century moving services.
 The three movers that showed up were good because they spoke English and then when I asked them to watch the walls they did not get snippy with me like the last movers that I used. That name I do not want to disclose because I'm not here to bash companies. Anyhow the century guys were very careful and ended up only scratching a couple of walls and I honestly do not blame them because of the fact that my furniture was super heavy and bulky it was pretty much impossible.
   From the point of pickup to delivery I was very pleased in saying that they only showed up late once, it was very late but I understand that these things happen. I am pleased with how the rest of the move went and would like to use them again when I will be moving in just another 9 weeks. You guys were awesome, Century Moving and I appreciate doing business with you all.
Regards,
Megs .

My wife and I just sold our house in Sparta, NJ and we're moving closer to our children and grandchildren who reside in San Diego, CA. We had a few national van line companies come in to perform visual assessments of our household. Unfortunately, the price that they proposed were way outside of what we planned to budget for this trip. So I went online to look for local companies that were capable of performing this move for us.
We received calls from several companies that offered similar moving services, but when we spoke with Tim from Century Moving Services, we felt more at home with him. He offered us great quality and an affordable price to which we agreed to.
Although, the crew arrived late due to some traffic, they went to work immediately. The guys worked really quick and completed this move quicker than what we imagined. I will definitely recommend this firm to my colleagues, friends, and other family members if they need movers.

I was very disappointed at the bait and switch routine that they did to me! I should have listened to the MANY reviews that had criticized the company. There are more negative reviews than positive. All had some sort of bait and switch on them as well. Even if it was on the contract, I had them "backtrack" and say "well..maybe we would get there on your move-in date" and then not even be able to tell me WHERE my belongings would be for 10 days! The reviews are even worse on "YELP" for this moving company.. STRONGLY suggest trying another company if you can!

There were some sites that didn't have the best reviews for this company, so I was very hesitant on even receiving a quote from them again but Tim was the man. He explained to me that they were considering going through a class action lawsuit with over 200 other small businesses against Yelp. He showed me links and other documents that surprisingly proved their case that a lot of those reviews were fake and were not accredited. So I went with it.

I needed to move my entire 3 bedroom home from Edison,NJ to Plano, TX. Door to Door service was excellent. I'll definitely recommend them to my co-workers who are also being relocated.

We were contacted by Tim who was very friendly, professional, and great to deal with. I put a request in online and had a quote within a few hours. My emails and voice mails were promptly replied to.

The actual cost was right on with the estimate (and from what other reviewers say, far cheaper than competitors). This is the second time I have used Century Moving Services, the first was almost 6 years ago, but I had no doubt I would be using them for this move and didn't even bother with quotes from anyone else.

On moving day, the movers Paul, Miguel, and Salvador, came in and were efficient, clean and careful - not a single scratch or

nick on my walls or pristine and glimmering hardwood floors! They moved several large and bulky items, including a washer and dryer from the basement of my old place with ease and expertise as they navigated several challenging areas in my home. These guys are pros!

Without hesitation I would recommend this company to not only total strangers here, but my own family and friends to whom I would have to answer to by recommending them.

Thanks a lot guys! Really thank you!!
