Long-distance move from Connecticut to Massachusetts

Great work and good people.

Before finding this company, I was very afraid with the experiences with the different movers and stories about. While talking to David it was very nice and promising. he explained how to get the the correct estimate by just all giving small or big items with proper count. Although I have changed my inventory list at last time but David managed it with the same price.
Than I had constraints of morning pickup and same day delivery, the company managed it so well that just I have to say "Great work", they delivered my house hold without any lost or even without a small breakage. the truck guys were very very professional and managed everything greatly. All the best for the company..

Long-distance move from New York to Illinois

Worst moving experience ever!

I moved to five different places during my college years, and another five during my 11 years in New York City, and this was by far the worst moving experience!  Up front they put on a great face..giving an extremely low quote, which proved to be bait, and proactively communicating, albeit lie after lie.  We submitted every piece of furniture that was to be moved and received a quote of approximately $1,200.  Afterward we sent a spreadsheet detailing the cubic dimension of each item and the quote came back stating 438 cubic feet costing $1,323.  After the final quote we asked Adam on at least five occassions if there were any other fees or expenses that we should expect..he repeatedly said no.  If you only have the items you submitted the end cost will be very close to the estimate.   In the end the cost was over $1,000 more ($2,412 before tip)!  When the movers came to pick up our furniture they charged us $500 for plastic wrap?!  This after we asked Adam multiple times if ther were any additional charges for the move and he repeatedly said no?!  They also said our furniture took up 700 cubic feet in the moving truck!  They quoted 438 cubic feet originally..after we sent them a spreadsheet with the cubic dimensions?!  I was able to talk the movers down to only charging for 600 cubic feet..I had to move out of my building that day so my hands were tied.   They purposely lied up front to get us interested, they lied during the negotiating period to win our business, they lied at the end saying we made this all up.  I have no reason to lie and want to share my experience because I don't want this to happen to anyone else..not even my worst enemy.  .

Excellent!

We had a perfect experience moving.  The movers were very professional and so careful with our items.  They were on time and our items were delivered in the exact same condition they left!  No damages.  They took extra time to make sure things were placed correctly.  The entire staff was great and I would use them again in a heartbeat!
