Jake's Moving & Storage LLC

Searching and finding a moving company when moving with reasonable pricing can be so stressful on anyone. I was given a suggestion to use Jake's M&S and I did. I started with speaking with Tracy and she was very
respectful and knowledgeable with addressing my concerns that I had regarding my move, items, and pricing. I wasn't sure if the cost was gong to be extremely high because I had multiple locations to have furniture picked up. The cost was affordable and the contract was placed. As moving day got closer I received a follow up call from John confirming the move. MOVING DAY: I was called by Malik (I belieive) letting me know how close there were to the arrival time agreed upon. My experience on July 27 was a team of four: Malik, Javier, and Tony from Jake's Moving and Storage was nothing less than exceptional. I would refer JAKE'S for future movers.THANK YOU JAKE'S MOVING AND STORAGE!!

Last month my boyfriend had to move out of his sister's house.  He knew the move date months before, but when the moving day came, he was not in the least bit ready.  Although he had some things in boxes, the majority of his stuff was unpacked.  I was freaking out and I didn't know what to expect.  Shimone and his crew arrived at 8am sharp.  I was a mess when I showed him everything that had to be moved.  The first thing he did was calm me down.  He told me not to worry becasue they were there to help, not judge.  He also assured me that they had more than enough packing materials to get the job done the right way.  Shimone and his crew not only helped us pack up Patrick's belongings (something that Patrick should have already done), but they also got everything in the truck stratigically and efficiently.  Also, even with all the work they had to do, the move was completed well before 5pm and it did not cost me an arm and a leg.  The pricing was a lot less than I thought it would be.   I could go on and on about how great of an experience I had with Jakes Moving and Storage.  In a nut shell, they were able to make my moving nightmare a pleasant expereince. and I would recomend them to anybody and everybody.  If you would like any more information about the move, please feel free to email me at jennyalamb@live.com.

This moving company was great!  From the time I scheduled the move over the phone with Jacob to the time the movers finished the job 4 hours later, they were extremely professional and careful with all of my stuff--including a big screen plasma TV and some fragile picture frames.  They were also very timely and prompt.  I was having them move my stuff from a 1-bedroom apartment to a 4-bedroom house.  These movers were very accommodating because after I had them set up the furniture and considered where I wanted each piece initially, they were ok with moving the furniture to new locations before leaving.

They showed up on time, and worked very quickly. I was surprised at the level of care they took with my girlfriend's furniture (they wrapped everything in pads). The entire loading process only took a few hours, and they were equally fast and careful with the unloading at her new apartment. Given how little they charged for the move, I expected to have a bunch of yahoos show up and toss everything into a pickup. :)  But the movers were very professional, two loaders and a manager who kept on top of the workers to make sure that they did everything correctly. He checked that all items were properly loaded and secured in the moving truck prior to their loading the next series of things. Very impressed, and would definitely use them again.

It was easy to work with Jake's from beginning to end. We submitted our request for a quote through their website and then received a call very quickly in order to determine the full extent of our move needs. They worked with us to find the best solution to our specific situation and provided a comprehensive revised quote based on the additional information.  On move day the two trucks (yes, two)  and eight guys arrived on time, in the pouring rain, and started working right away. These guys worked hard and kept at it until the entire house was cleared. At the new house, they kept the pace, still in the pouring  rain, and got everything in, without any damage. We have a LOT of stuff, some went upstairs, some stayed on the main floor. They didn't grumble or complain, rather joked good naturedly about it. I believe we estimated 10 hours and the guys finished in somewhere between 8-9 hours.   I have already recommended Jake's to a co-worker and would gladly again. GREAT service from really nice guys!

Initially we were leery about moving companies but we found Jake's Moving & Storage a week before we were to move and the salesman (Mark) was of great assistance. He took a thorough inventory of our items and gave us a reasonable estimate. There were no hidden charges. They called us one day in advance to remind of their arrival time. The movers were great. They were professional and made sure everything that required protection was protected. They worked as scheduled. At the end the estimate turned out to be quite accurate. We have decided if we move again we will use Jake's Moving & Storage!!     .

Several weeks after my move, I was contacted by someone who identified as the "supervising manager" at Jake's Moving & Storage - not the supervisor that I had worked with on the day of the move.    He indicated that he had seen my reviews and apologized that I had a bad experience. He also asked if I would be willing to remove the review. He indicated that the supervisor who was evasive and intimidating was having "the worst day of his life" and is usually highly rated in reviews. He also indicated that the foreman who was so inappropriate with me was a contractor and not a direct employee of the company and claimed they do not plan to work with that particular contractor again. He stated that the other two workers are permanent employees of the company and not picked up at a 7-11 that day. He provided reasons why the truck was 4 hours late, the foreman was incompetent, and the supervisor was unkind. He was very nice and the conversation was pleasant, but he did indicate more than once that they would like the review removed.   I gave it some careful consideration. I cannot say one way or another who is telling the truth in this situation as I do not know any of these people, and all of their accounts of the day and who is at fault are contradictory. I would have no way of knowing how often they are late, how often the truck breaks down, if the supervisor is usually more professional/less intimidating, or if the foreman is still working with the company. Either way, everything I stated in my original review really happened, and if the explanation I was provided is not true or contractors are generally just not well-vetted by this company - it could easily happen to someone else in the future. I apologize, but the review stands.

This was a same-day move within the same apartment complex, but between two different buildings.  It required full packing and unpacking and included a lot of unfinished packing on the fly.  They were punctual, showing up exactly on time.  They were uniformed and brought with them all the necessary padding, wrap, carts, etc.  It was a long day, but everyone worked as a team and got it done.  The cost was on budget and consistent with their quote with no unexpected charges. Days later, once I had a chance to open and go through most all of the boxes, I was impressed with the thoroughness and care they took when packing and boxing.  Absolutely nothing was damaged, stolen, or dirty or wet (even though it was raining towards the end of the move).  I would be happy to recommend Jake's Moving and Storage and they will be the first I call for my future moving needs. On last thing, about six months after my move, John, from Jake's Moving gave me a call.  It was a quality check call and he asked if I would consider making a post.  Since I had a good experience with Jake's I agreed write a review but I declined his offer of a gift card. .

Jake's Moving was such a great choice. The flat fee was reasonable, and I certainly appreciated no hidden fees when the movers arrived and helped pack up extra miscellanous items I had forgotten to pack, or hadn't known how to pack properly. The moving team was courteous, efficient, and professional. I hate moving, but they made it a pretty painless experience, and were good-natured throughout the process. Phone calls with the management to arrange the move and follow up afterward were equally pleasant and professional (which I really value since I am usually short on time and patience). If I move again, I'll be sure to go back to Jake's!

I had an exceptional experience with Jake's Moving. Henry, Benjamin and Brian were professional and courteous at all times. They took extra care with the fragile pieces of artwork I have. There were several flights of stairs both at my old home and my new home and it was a very hot day. At no point did they slow down or become less efficient based on the conditions. John was our salesman and he too was exceptional! He explained the details of the move perfectly. He responded to every call and email I sent within the hour day or night. I would highly recommend Jake's moving and will most definitely use them again for future moves. I have already recommended them to other people. Thanks to everyone at Jake's!

My wife and I have used Jake's Moving about a week ago for a local move. They moved us from a 2 bedroom in Silver spring to our new home in Gaithersburg. The team was very efficient. They covered our furniture very well with clean pads. All the movers were very careful with our floors and walls. The estimate we received prior was accurate. It was nice to have a certified moving consultant come out to do an in home estimate. Very professional from start to finish. We could not be happier with the personal attention. They really delivered what they promised and we will be happy to recommend. Thank you guys. You are awesome!

We needed some workstations moved and rearranged in our office suite. Jake's was the first company to respond to my inquiry (same day) and sent a reasonable time and cost estimate. We were able to get the move done the following week. The crew was on time and professional. They were conscientious about not damaging anything in the office and made sure I was happy with the arrangement of the furniture before they left. The workstations look great and we paid even less than the estimate due to the fact that the crew got everything done so quickly. I would not hesitate to recommend them for large and small projects.  .

Jake's Moving and Storage did an excellent job with my much needed move from a townhome to an apartment. From my initial inquiry with Jake to get everything organized in their system with pricing to the staff that arrived. It was well organized. My movers, Simon, Hoover, & Manuel, were courteous and wrapped all items and even helped me box remaining items. So professional! Much appreciated.

It was the same with the delivery and move-in. They were careful with all of my possessions. I would recommend them to everyone.

Service cost: $2000

The guys arrived and got right to work. They were well prepared with plenty of extra tape, wrap, blankets, etc. They expertly wrapped all of the miscellaneous items I didn't already have boxed up, and so there was zero breakage of anything upon arrival. Not even a light bulb was missing or broken! Crew was upbeat and cheerful throughout the day, and actually seemed to enjoy the task of moving all of our stuff (astonishing, because I was dreading the whole task). In all they made it very easy and carefree. Thank you.

I work for a hotel and yesterday we had 197 beds delivered. Our staff simply could not keep up and after putting in about 8 hours moving beds into the hotel we started looking for companies to help us complete the job. After a few calls we came across Jake's Moving and Storage. They came through at the last minute and brought the remaining beds into our storage rooms. I can't thank you enough for helping us out. The crew consisting of John and his two team members were ready to get moving when they arrived and managed to do what we just couldn't. I will certainly recommend them for others and will remember them when it comes time for my personal move next year.

With Gratitude,

I would reccommend Jake's Moving and Storage to anyone looking for movers!!  From the start to the end of my experience they were extremely professional and efficient.  Jake called me within an hour of my online inquiry and went through a detailed inventory of what I was moving.  By the end of the call, I had an estimate in my inbox!  
 
Pricing is based on the amount of time it takes the guys to move.  I had expected them to try to delay so it took them longer, but from the minute they arrived at our house to move to when they were leaving at the end of the day, they hustled and worked as quickly and efficiently as possible.  The guys were very cautious to protect our furniture and valuables and they bring all the equipment necessary to do so!  
 
I was sub leasing an apartment so I have a few things left to move - and I have called Jake again to help me with this move! I will never use anyone else!
