Stress-free moving!

I go to college in NYC and was kicked out of the dorms so the beds could be used as overflow beds for hospitals burdened by COVID 19 or to house medical personnel. Due to the short notice, I was unable to pack my belongings before going home. Thankfully, Flatrate Moving provided a hassle-free move and storage solution when I was unable to be there myself. All the representatives I spoke to were friendly and accommodating and the movers kept me updated every step of the way.

The flatrate moving app was also helpful for adding items that I had forgotten to include. My one complaint is the inaccuracy of the "locate your truck" feature, as it said my truck was in the same spot for multiple hours when I knew it was definitely not there. Furthermore, the app only allows you to add new items to your inventory, not increase the quantity of an existing item.

Moving Team was Great.

Overall experience with FlatRate was great - from the sales rep and quick quote to the actual moving day. The moving team arrived a few minutes early and moved everything very carefully and efficiently. My specific team (Elmostafa, Mamado and Zoran) was fantastic - very friendly and worked very hard to make sure I was comfortable with everything they were doing. The FlatRate team made moving in NYC (from my apartment to storage during Covid-19) much better than expected. Would highly recommend.

My moving experience.

Right from the start, the staff was fast, friendly and careful with my property. It took them longer to drive from the pickup location to the final destination. But that did not take away from their enthusiasm to do their job. During their journey, they encountered strong winds from storm Isaias, down power lines and trees as well. But they made it. All good.

Do Not Use.

This was the worst move in my life. Bottom line - they lost a $3,800 bed (and that isn't all of it). It's been over two months and I'm still dealing with this. The costumer service is garbage. They do not return calls. They are not helpful. And they act as if it isn't their responsibility to get your furniture from one place to another. Find a different mover. Trust me.

It’s all about the movers.

You can compare prices with 10 different moving companies, but if the moving day experience is terrible, or if you get up charged at the end because you have more boxes than you estimated, or decided to take that bookcase, you’re going to be angry and more stressed than necessary. We compared prices and Flatrate wasn’t the cheapest, but the guy we talk to sounded like he knew what he was doing. He did a virtual walk through through FaceTime, and gave us an estimate that was in the ballpark but on the high end of the others. But he convinced me that a few extra boxes won’t change the price with his company. And I had no assurances with the others.

Moving day comes and the team of 4 gets here right on time, introduces themselves, reassures us they will take care of everything. They were very polite, really nice guys. And they moved a large 2 bedroom apartment with stairs into the truck in 90 minutes. That includes disassembling 2 beds and a table. And we had probably close to 15 boxes more than estimated but he kept the agreed to price. At the destination they tried to read what we wrote on the boxes to put them in the right rooms for us. Each piece of furniture was unwrapped and put exactly where we asked.

Why were these guys so good? I think #1 they were genuinely good guys. And #2, they work for tips. So please, tip your movers generously!! I don’t want to think about moving again, but if I had to I would call Flatrate.

Great Service!

This is for a move that happened on the 14th of August. Our stuff was moved from our apartment into storage for 1 month. Pablo and the rest of the moving crew were great!  They were professional, communicative, and very helpful. The also followed all social distancing and Covid-19 requirements (mask wearing, etc). I highly recommend Pablo's crew and I plan to use them for our move out of storage into our new apartment in a months time.

Move and Store.

Due to Covid, we sold our apartment in BK, and will get another one when things settle down.

FlatRate white-glove packed us and will store our belongings indefinitely.

They were Courteous and Professional throughout the whole process.

I would highly recommend them.

A fairly stress-free move!

Zuleika in customer service was extremely helpful and professional in helping us prepare for our move. She was prompt in replying to emails and providing the COI and other required information. The movers were very professional and efficient. They communicated clearly and asked questions when appropriate. They were careful with the furniture and were both strong and skilled. They were even able to move a very heavy couch!
