Men On The Move

Men on the Move moved us from our Ann Arbor, MI, home to an apartment in Cincinnati Ohio. Howard and Jimmy were amazing. They showed up on time, and were efficient and extremely careful with all of our belongings. Even though they did not finish loading the truck until almost 4:00, they still drove to Cincinnati that evening as they had planned. The next morning they showed up at exactly 8:30. Moving our belongings into our third floor apartment was not easy. Each load involved putting items onto the dolly or carrying them from the truck a few hundred feet to the door that lead to the freight elevators. Once on the third floor, they still had about a 6 or 8 minute walk to our apartment. They were careful to put each item into the room we had designated. Some items were put into a storage "cage" near the elevator, and they carefully stacked items up so that we could fit all the items into the space. Furniture was placed exactly where we requested. After working almost constantly, they again finished at about 4:00. They had no complaints and were always polite and positive. We highly recommend Men on the Move!

The short story is that I had to file a police report and a small claims action against Men on the Move. Where do I start...they destroyed my front door - I mean ripped it off the frame of the house -- and said nothing. They ruined an entire box of picture frames CLEARLY labeled as fragile. They scratched my new bamboo floors so badly it makes me feel sick to look at them. They left all 3 mattresses in one room for ME to take care of. They left the treadmill at the bottom of the basement stairs for ME to move. And, last, but certainly not least, they destroyed a bookcase. Again, they said nothing about it. They just put the ruined side down so that I would't see it until (of course) I had to move it. When I discovered the absolute lack of care for my personal belongings I immediately called the company and talked to Jeff, who purports to be the owner. Who knows - you can't trust anything they say. He came out to my house to "fix" the floor. It looks no different at all. He also promised to reimburse me for my broken picture frames -- $75 -- guess what? I haven't seen a dime of that money. AND he took the bookcase promising to return it to me fixed and in good condition in a week. It's been 2 weeks. He promised to drop if off yesterday. Guess what? I've heard nothing from him. So, I had no choice but to A) call a reputable handyman to give me an estimate on what it's going to cost them to fix all the damage and B) file a police report for theft and destruction of property and a small claims court action for reimbursement. Luckily, I have a record of all of the text messages I sent to their (alleged) owner and all of the photos that I took. Whatever you do - DO NOT hire these people or this company. You WILL regret it! And I can speak from experience.

I moved a short distance from Queens to Nassau County I used Men On The Move from the research I did. From the my first call to them to the day they showed they were professional and courteous. They moved all my furniture and even helped me put the front door back on the hinges when they were done. I would definitely use Men On The Move in the future and will recommend them to others.

The entire experience was exceptional.  Their staff was knowledgeable and friendly during the booking process.  The team arrived on time, worked extremely hard and finished early.  They were polite, professional and responsive to our needs and concerns.  I will never hire anyone else again and I will only recommend this company in the future for moves.  They were not the cheapest option in the town, but they are by far the best choice.

We had three movers and a big truck - Dale, Devin, and for the life of me, I cannot remember the third gentleman. They were right on time and worked hard for 5.5 hours loading and unloading. They were really appreciative of the work we did to pack and prepare as much as possible, and were unfazed by the 45 steps they had to climb / descend to get in and out of our old house - not to mention the sweltering heat throughout the day. All three men were very friendly and professional, and they even came in a few hundred dollars under their original quote. The only thing I wish they did was put down a plastic trail like our previous movers to keep shoes off of our carpet but they didn't track in any visible dirt or leave stains, so ultimately it was fine. We'll be calling on them again next time we move.

Excellent. Absolutely surpassed my expectations. Ask for one of the guys that's been with the company for a while. The team lead on our job had been working there for more than 15 years. He took pride in the quality of his work. He also knew how to get the job done right. The team even helped keep me sane during a very stressful day. Couldn't have asked for more.

Shawn and Derrick arrived early and had the job done with no complaints and a cheerful manner in a short time.  The quote had been for around $250, but they finished early and the final bill was much less.  Would definitely use them again for small or large jobs.  Nice to see people who take pride in what they do.

I was very pleased with how smooth my move across town went. I was moving from a small two bedroom house. I intended for them to just move my big furniture pieces, but I had everything else boxed. I was going to move the boxes myself. They looked at my stacks of boxes and thought it wouldn't take much time to move them too, and they we're right! Everyone involved was positive and professional. No regrets having them move it all. I thought it was a fair price.

The three men showed up and my first impression what not good. Only one of them introduced themselves. Although the and quot;leaderand quot; was very kind in offering a handshake, he was sarcastic. Throughout the day, they were very kind and concerned about what they were moving, but they complained about having had to work so late the night before and how they were tired. One showed up chewing (dip), another smoked on the job (offered us a 15 minute credit for the 8 hour day), and the youngest, fresh out of high school, was the nicest and hardest worker of the group. He didn't smoke, dip or stop for any breaks. He took time, while working, to show interest and make conversation without interrupting or lessoning the work. We still tipped them at the end because they had to lift a lot of heavy stuff, but they also said that it should have been a 2 truck 4 person job and it was a 1 truck 3 person job. I was there also helping for 3 hours, and I had to pack my car with A LOT of stuff (3 trips) that they and quot;weren't allowed to moveand quot; which we were not told about ahead of time (the vcr, etc must be boxed up). It was no big deal because we were a mile down the road, but if we were going out of state, things might have been left behind. Having said that, we gave them a and quot;Cand quot; grade because they were very careful with our things and nothing was broken.

Went very well. Movers were prompt, courteous, and very willing to please. Put furniture where requested and organized boxes in the garage as requested. Sent a second moving truck and additional helpers when they realized the need in order to finish the job. Highly recommend.

I know lot of moving services who use people who are not highly skilled, but these two guys at Men On The Move seem to know, they were some big awkward pieces of furniture, and they knew very well how to handle it. They knew how to move something that is big and awkward. Actually some of the furniture was very tall and dusty on top and they had it dusted off before they brought it into the room. I said let me dust it before you take it out and they said no, when we got it off the truck that is the best time to dust it. They took care of that.

I would not recommend them. There was a lot of damage and they were intimidating to my wife.

We needed our furniture (couches, beds, dressers, table and chairs) and other large items moved to our new home. Scheduling was easy, and the movers showed up on time. Our movers, Howard and Tyler did a great job and really hustled to get everything secured and onto the truck. They took care to not damage our items and our new home. I was a little worried, because we live on a bumpy dirt road, and our house has 2 sets of stairs, but everything went well. Would recommend and would use again.

I called Men on the Move in Ann Arbor to get a quote for our local move. The person I spoke with on the phone asked for a description of our layout and amount of stuff we would need moved and when. He was very informative and was able to schedule our desired moving day even though it was only a few days away. He explained that the quote is usually on the high side because they don't like to charge the customer more than initially estimated but they only end up charging by the time it actually takes. I was quoted $750 and the final price for a 3 hour move was $600.
My wife and I did ALL the prep work (boxed everything, broke down beds, treadmill, unhooked appliances, etc) in order to minimize the time we needed them. They were very grateful that everything was prepped and prepared for the move. I was told they would show up at 9am on our move day and they showed at exactly 9am. The 3 guys (Percy, Ray and Tyler) were very friendly, professional and efficient with the move. They didn't hesitate to accommodate any special requests. They were very careful with everything and took the time to put down blankets/rugs to protect the floors (which was especially important with all the snow on the ground). The whole job took them 3 hours. It probably would've taken me and my buddies at least an entire day! We were extremely happy with how the move went.
The quality of service provided was great. The energy and time saved was well worth the price. We wouldn't hesitate to use them again in the future.
