I was extremely impressed by their teamwork. They obviously made a game plan and followed it to the letter. They packed up about 70 boxes of very heavy books and lots of big and ungainly furniture in record time.
At the new office they unloaded everything, putting it where I thought I wanted it and then willingly moved it again when I changed my mind.
Although I don't look forward to moving again, I would certainly use Mini Movers and would recommend them without hesitation.
Thanks George and the team.
The morning of the move, I met Steve and Dave at the storage facility. They arrived at 8:10am and went right to work. The storage unit held a *lot* of heavy boxes! Also some pieces of furniture and other odds & ends. It took several hours just to get all the boxes etc moved out of the storage unit and into their truck.
Once at the house, most of it went into the basement, so a lot of carrying from the truck through a bulkhead and down a short set of stairs, and then me trying to figure out where to put everything. A few things, including a couch, went up to the 3rd floor.
Steve and Dave were professional and good-natured during the whole process. The move wound up taking longer than anticipated, but they made sure that everything was done to my satisfaction before they left.
I didn't put an amount in the "cost of service" section of this review, because I don't have their invoice in front of me and I don't remember the total, but it seemed quite reasonable for all the work they did.
I would certainly hire them again.
In general, Mini Move did a good job moving and the 3 movers were great though I was disappointed by the follow-up issue/question that I had.
We were simultaneously selling and buying houses and there is a small gap between the closing of the old house and the closing of the new house. I talked to a number of movers and some would charge us $250 a day just to store our belongings on the truck while others would charge us a one time fee of approx. $250 for storage while they would remove our belongings from their truck and reload it on delivery day (i.e. it becomes 2 moves). Mini Move suggested that I rented a truck from Budget myself and it would be significantly cheaper and we just hired them for moving stuffs into the truck and out of the truck. I told them that I am not comfortable driving a 24 ft truck and they even volunteered to pick-up and drop-off the truck for us.
Mini Moves' owner (Greg) then came over and gave us an estimate and he told us that all packing materials would be included (vs. other movers charge approx. $100 to $200). I made a reservation with Budget and it was estimated to be $500 or so (including truck rental, insurance and taxes). The move went smoothly, kudos to the 3 movers ... they were professional and they were fast.
Then ... a few days later, the charge from Budget came through my credit card and it was $800+ (i.e. $300 more than estimate) and I called them to figure out why. They said that I was charged $264 for moving pads, which I didn't reserve for. I called Mini Moves and their associate (George) told me that he would talk to Greg and figure out if the movers had use Budget's or Mini Moves' moving pads. He said that it cost $5 per pad rental at Mini Moves (since the move is overnight; otherwise, it's free) ... and obviously, I was surprised since it was not in the estimate and that was the first time I heard about the pad rental, especially, Greg said that all materials are included. It has been over a week, I still have yet to receive any call from Mini Moves. I assume they are just going to let it go. In my mind, I am fine being charged for the pad rentals as long as I was told upfront. Now, I am just disappointed that they did not call and explain exactly what happened. Also, if it was their screw-up, would it make sense for them to pay for at least some of the pad rentals (e.g. 50/50 split)?
Long story short ... my savings from Budget truck rental was pretty much offset by the cost of pad rental and I could easily have hired another mover for the same cost without having to deal with the truck rental company separately.
"Hi [Member name removed], Thanks again for choosing Mini Moves and more and I'm glad to hear that our three man crew was professional and courteous. I looked into the "pad issue" by contacting Budget and unfortunately there is nothing they are able to do to refund the pad fee. I am not sure why they charged you for pads considering we used our pads and all our equipment for your move. We normally charge $5 per pad but we never charged you for any pads we used. With that being said we charged you for everything we did and that came in $160 under our estimate. I am happy to refund half the pad fee and hope this resolves the issue. Thanks again, Greg Pavao (President)"
