Element Moving & Storage

We moved from Dallas to Portland. Overall, I recommend the company.
PROS:
Incredible communication. I never had a problem knowing what was going on.The lowest quoted price of any company.They made all their "time windows" which were at most 2 hours.

CONS:We did a phone quote. We were charged for an additional 100 sq. ft. Not a big deal, but see below for more info.They broke a stair. Although they came back and fixed it later in the afternoon, I was the one to bring it up at the end of the loading part. Otherwise, I think they would have left it broken.


QUOTES:
If you get a phone quote, know that these are never reliable. However, when they packed our stuff in the truck, I'm almost positive our stuff came in UNDER the quoted sq. footage. When I asked why they charged me the extra 100 sq. ft, the mover simply said, well the whole truck is 1800 sq. ft. But they never measured. If I was to do it all over again, I would have made them get out a tape measure in front of me.

CONCLUSION
So, I'm tempted to give them a poor rating for honesty, but I can't confirm for certainty that the square footage wasn't what they said. Regardless, they still came in cheaper than most other companies. Just don't be afraid to push when you don't understand something and ask a TON of questions before the movers actually come to make sure you know what you're getting into.


Happy moving..

I was so stressed about moving and was so frustrated. I did a search online and found element. From the moment I heard my sales rep,s voice I felt such at ease. She was very thorough, virtuous and so helpful. The crew arrived right one time on the day of my move and did an great job! They worked hard, did not complain at all and kept moving til the job done. The total of my job ended up being less than what they quoted me which my sales rep prepared me really well for. It was just a great experience and I highly recommend element moving to anyone!

When it comes to reviewing my experience with Element, it is tough to decide where to even begin.  With most online reviews, there is something about the company that goes above and beyond that you'd like to point out, but with Element, it was simply everything.  From the care and precision that went into packing and wrapping my belongings to the timeliness and orderliness throughout the process, everything was great. These guys were quick, careful, and most importantly honest.     During my "day job" I have regular interaction with moving companies all across the country and I can tell you first-hand that many of these companies have one or two very friendly and helpful sales agents, but the rest of the company staff isn't anywhere near as friendly, helpful, or trustworthy.  With Element's staff, this is NOT the case.  Everyone from the owners to the drivers/movers and everyone in between went out of their way to make my entire moving experience as easy as possible.  I know there are plenty of moving companies to choose from, but I have yet to deal with one that as more reliable or honest than Element Moving.  Thanks again for everything!  .

Without a doubt if I ever need or know someone that needs a mover I would highly recommend this company.  My movers were Willis, Caesar and Roberto and they couldn't have been nicer or more efficient.  They came on time, asked me a couple of questions and then they got busy and didn't stop until they were done.  Nothing was broken or damaged. I was amazed at the speed that they worked and how organized and well mannered they were.  If I had a concern, they stopped and answered my questions without acting annoyed or bothered.  From the moment I talked to Jeremy at the office until my things were delivered I had an excellent experience.  The quote that was given to me was higher than I actually had to pay so of course this made me happy too!   Once again I am extremely happy with this company and wouldn't hesitate to mention them to anyone that needs to move.

We were only moving 10 minutes from our previous home but the stress and pre-planning are no less than if you were moving across the US.  Element Moving made it as easy as possible, offering support throughout the 8 month period we had to work with before our new home was complete.
The pre-home tour was professional and provided a good guideline as to what we were getting into and the follow up process 7 months later spelled out everything that we had to do to prepare for moving day.
The moving team was alert, careful, and offered extra assistance throughout the one day that we moved everything from our home and an off-site storage facility.  We even came in below budget!
Thank you for all of your hard work, and ensuring our new home was not damaged in any way when moving in our belongings.
Great job and I would recommund them for any and all local or cross country moves.

Hollie was the key for having decided to check the reviews and go with this company. She is extremely nice and friendly. Scott did an in- home estimation and he was very friendly, professional and courteous too; his estimate was very precise.
The three guys crew that came to do the moving were absolutely fantastic. They did all my packing and took all the stress from the moving off of my shoulders. They were very professional but at the same time managed to keep me smiling even when I hate movings with passion. Their honesty is also commendable to the max; I could not have asked for better people to help me with the move.

I have never used a moving company before and Element Moving made the process so easy. We used the groupon but if it is not available in the future, we will still use Element regardless of the price. Everything from the sale to the move itself was easy and everyone we talked to with the company were helpful and professional. Ryan and Roberto were polite, fun, very fast paced, and very careful with our belongings. It took them 3 hours to do what would have taken us at least 3 days. I will absolutely recommend Element Moving to anyone looking to move.

I can't say a single bad thing about Element. Outstanding!!
Element Moving and Storage has done three moves for me now. The first time, we didn't really know them at all. We only moved two miles, but they actually packed everything as if I were going cross country! I told them they could just throw it all in the back, but they didn't do that. We are major art collectors with very expensive art, and every single thing got transferred with no issues at all, even without crates (because it was only a couple miles)! Really I have NOTHING negative that I can say about them. That is why I hired them two more times for an office space of ours and a relative's apartment. When we move again soon, they will be the ones we call.

From the very first person I spoke to at Element Moving to the last there were no surprises. What I mean by that is there are always those unexpected fees that weren't discussed and no one likes. However, with Element Moving there weren't any. The price they quoted me, in the beginning, was exactly the price I was charged at the end. Also, I hired six other guys to help me, for this was a big move. Those young guys started losing there steam around 1pm. Not so with the Element Moving guys. Those three guys kept their steady pace throughout the entire move. They completely loaded a 28 ft truck and unloaded it at the new home, placing furniture and items where I wanted, all within eight hours. I was really glad I hired them and would strongly recommend Element Moving to anyone looking to move. Thanks guys for making our move much easier.

The team that moved us from Plano Tx to Wichita Fa;;s TX were kind, courteous, and considerate. My spouse is a disabled Vet with a heart condition and they young men did their upmost to make sure he didn't do any lifting. That was no easy task as he is very head strong. Our apartment was packed and loaded in 3 hours. It took a little longer to unload. We were very pleased with the move. The foreman was very knowledgeable when it came to what we would need to hook up our dryer. He offered advice on what we would need to make it compatible with the electric outlet. All in all I was very glad I chose this company. It was nice to have someone come out and give us an idea of how much it would cost for the move. I think it is a good idea to get an estimate and that didn't cost a thing. Grate people and company.

I was very pleased with the guys that moved my girlfriends stuff. It was no easy task trying to navigate the tight corners of a small two bedroom apartment. They were fast, never stopping to take a break and they took all the right steps to making sure her oversized mirrors were wrapped and padded correctly! Unloading the truck of course went very smoothly and much quicker. They did an excellent job putting the mirror back on her dresser, coming ready with all the necessary tools. The group of guys that did our move very very friendly, even joking around with them a bit. Definitely recommend them to anyone and will certainly use them again myself.
