The service was not as good as I thought it would be. The owner did a
walk trough the house two days before moving date to determine the
necessary space and personal. However, the truck was to small to
accommodate all items. Thus,  I had to spend another $375 in addition to
the $1,870 I had to pay for the moving company which was hired by
Baymeadows to  complete the job a few days later. Furthermore with only
three packers it took about 10.5 hours to load the truck. The number of
workers Baymeadows owner recommended was insufficient also. Lastly the
truck driver promised to come back Monday, 12/31/2012 to pick up the
items which were left behind. I waited at the vacant house from 8am to
3pm and no one showed up. That's really bad service.
I am disappointed and even more frustrated and would never use this company
again. This has been the worst moving experience I have ever made.
Response from Baymeadows Moving & Storage

"Unfortunately I was out of town when this move took place. We failed to respond to the this move and the drawn out time it took to complete .However the driver did explain to me that the homeowner was not totaly ready and was in and out of the house all day. This will prolong the job, no matter how fast we work. The difference in the cost of the move vs the estimate was 375.00.I have reached out to the customer , but have not talked with him as of this date."

Overall, the experience was very good.  They also packed a garbage basket full of paper garbage too. No big deal, but I advise that you more closely supervise the two young ladies who come by to do the wrapping of the kitchen and other small stuff. On the morning of the move, their truck broke down, so we had to wait for a smaller truck to arrive in the late afternoon, around 4pm, and pick up our stuff. 
They brought it to their warehouse where it was to be transferred to the interstate moving van (they belong to a very reliable group, an interstate company who have great feedback...I researched them thoroughly beforehand).
We decided to drive up from Florida to New York and Dayan from Baymeadows called us during our trip to coordinate the arrival date with the trucker, so that we would get there before the truck arrived.  Well, they arrived within the move-in window and unpacked the major pieces and moved them into place.  A couple of pieces were damaged in the move--a table and a standing lamp.  We took out full insurance so they covered it and arranged for the repair of one and cut the check for the other relatively quickly and without much hassle.  I recommend taking out insurance with a low or no deductible.
Prior to the move, we researched severals companies.  Some lowballed us, another came for an estimate and just assumed we would engage them without giving us a written estimate--after several calls they quoted us a higher figure than Baymeadows did.  Another company didn't even bother to call back!  The weight estimate was very accurate and the cost quoted was very accurate.  The owner and his son were good folks and gave us boxes for free to get us started beforehand. Baymeadows is a great company and our moving experience was reliable, reasonably priced and quite manageable.

It was great. They seemed to be very professional, but we got a better quote from another company and went with them. They were actually the best people and their mannerisms were great. We would have actually gone with Baymeadows because they had both moving and storage. One reason we didn't go with them was because their storage facility was too far from our house and the price point was high, but they were our second best option. They're actually a great company. They were pretty quick and the turnaround was good. They were punctual and came in the morning and by the next day I had a quote in my hand.

The movers that came to pack and move my belongings to storage were very competent and helpful to me.  They were also efficient with the time it took to prepare my things for moving.  They brought me some used boxes from their company to give to me at no charge.  I felt at ease after being around them for a short time.  My move went very smoothly and ended in the 3 hour time frame that had been projected from their office staff based on my description of the things to be moved.

They workers showed up early and did a walk through.  They were very professional and pleasant to deal with.  I have an old upright arcade machine which is a back breaker to move, its well over 300 lbs and with the new apartment, more than a pain to lift up the stairs.  They easily moved it and other more bulky and awkward furniture.  Definitely when we move again, we will be using this company and would gladly tell, rather have told several about the movers and company.

Move went very well.  Both packers and movers were very courteous and professional throughout entire move.  The reason for the "B" grade was that the actual price charged was ~$1,000 higher than the estimate.  The salesperson led us to believe that the bulk of packing materials would be recycled boxes which were brought to us in advance.  He "estimated" $200 for new materials which proved to be about 1/4 of what we needed to purchase from them.  Great company, but be prepared to spend more on packing if you go that route.

We had used Angies List for previous contractors and it had been reliable for good referrals.  I found Baymeadows Movers to be highly reviewed and highly rated for large moves such as ours.  We did not look any further.  The estimator came out within a day or two and was professional and gave a detailed estimate and included 12 wardrobe boxes (part of the Angies List promo).  The crew arrived lead by Andre.  They were respectful and very careful with our items and both the departing home and move-in home.  We did not find any damaged items or walls.  They were meticulus with pad-wrapping all item.  In fact, this was the best wrapped move we have had (and we have moved multiple times cross-country (and it was only a 20 mile move).  Because of the extensive job they did wrapping and packing it took a bit longer than estimated, which ended up costing a bit more than estimated.  If you have expensive furniture they are well worth the extra time and money.  Andre did a great job of controlling the situation and letting me know what what was happening.  After an hour they had won my trust.  In general a great jop - very professional and worth the extra money.
Response from Baymeadows Moving & Storage

"Customer, We sincerely appreciate that you utiflized Angie's list and are very pleased to hear the outcome met your satisfaction the way you described. I will be sure to post this to Andre and the team that handled your household move for them to read the kind things you have to say about the experience. He, and all of our associates, are very well trained and consistently exceed the expectations of our customers. Please let us know if we can be of any further assistance to you and your family and thank you again."

From the moment they arrived (Mike and Miguel), both movers proceeded to carefully move and pack the POD to ensure maximum effective use of the limited storage space.  They took care while taking out big/heavy pieces of furniture's and padded them carefully to avoid damages.  They even placed a padded blanket around my door edge to avoid damage to my furnitures and door frame.  From the moment they arrived, they worked extremely hard!  The packing and storage went very well, they completed the work as promised and exceeded my expectations.  They were very meticulous in packing and caring  for my belongings. I highly recommend this company to anyone who needs a helping hand with moving household items and or packing & storing heavy items.  They were courteous and true professionals!
Response from Baymeadows Moving & Storage

"Customer, We thank you both for the opportunity to come out and assist you with your move. Mike and Miguel are notorious for doing a great job of taking care of items and keeping them from damage. I will pass along your comments to the both of them as I know they would love to read the comments you have written. Please keep us in mind with any future moving and storage needs you may have. Thank you both again very much."

The truck broke down on the way here.  Terry McDonald (President, Defiance Truck and Transfer) kept us posted continually as to the progress.  It cost $7,630.00, about $1,500.00 less than the original cost.

Their service was fine.  It wasn’t the best experience.  The guys that came out worked hard and they were good.  Initially, when I made the reservation to secure the services to move, they said they would send three guys to help us move.  The day of the move, they showed up with only 2 guys which made it become a 5 hour job instead of a 3 hour job.  When I called them to confirm it, they said they would charge a reduced rate since there were only 2 guys.  By the time they could have got a third guy out there, the other two would have been done.  Even thought it was a reduced rate, it still cost me time during my move.

It was the best cross country moving experience I have had. Much better than the last company I used. They showed up at the weigh station when they said they were going to. They were actually early. They got started right away. The coordinator, Diane, she was really helpful. For what they did, I thought the price was really fair. They were very responsive and that is what I liked about them. Some companies didn't get back to me for days. The guys who came to move were on time and wanted to get going.

Over the last month we have had many services/repairs/upgrades done to both homes.
None of them have approached the level of professionalism and quality provided by Baymeadows M&S.
My wife was impressed since they came to do the estimate, which was very thourough and detailed, alhough somehow, when they moving crew came  a few days later, they were not expecting so many boxes and furniture.
However, this only emphazise how good these guys are. Miguel and crew (3 in total + 1 truck) worked for about 12 hours nonstop, during which they rearanged the furniture multiple times, gave us ideas how to maximize space utilization, and at the end of the day, there wasn't a single scratch to the walls, woodfloor or the furniture. After almost two weeks, we still haven't finished unpacking, but so far, nothing broken.
IWhithout going into much detail, it is very clear that these guys are very professional, experienced and knowlegeable in what they do.
I would definitely recommend this company (and particularly this crew) to anyone that needs moving
Response from Baymeadows Moving & Storage

"Thank you for the review and the kind words you have to say about the crew. Miguel, the crew and all of our associates take great pride in the opportunities they have to provide services to our customers. I have passed along the compliments to them and hope that we have the opportunity to serve you again in the future."

The team of 3 arrived around 8am and promptly started wrapping the furniture and completing an inventory list of items in our home.  I also had them pack 2 huge mirrors which was done to perfection.  They continued to work without interruption as they completed the process as scheduled.  I am so very happy that I chose Baymeadows Moving and Storage for my moving needs.  They will also be storing my furniture for approximately 3 months.  I expect the second half of the move to be as great as the first!  Thanks Baymeadows Moving and Storage!

Provided an accurate estimate that was competitively priced.  Packers and movers were very pleasant and hard working.   Nothing was broken. Care was taken to protect walls and doors.  Delivery location was very difficult and it was raining.  Movers took extra precautions with boxes and inside on the floors since it was so wet outside.  Maintained a very pleasant attitude the entire time and never complained.  I would strongly recommend them.  Scheduling was a bit tricky but they accomodated our schedule.
