Very well.

unknown

The move went very smoothly from start to finish. It was quick and easy. Everyone was very professional and courteous. I definitely recommend them!

Great, everything was smooth and fast

This company is phenomenal! The owner and staff are true professionals. The owner called me numerous times to find a mutually convenient time for the move. Peter, the owner, quoted me a tentative price and then stopped by to confirm the price which he quoted. The two prices were the same. The movers were friendly and professional. The move was completed extremely quickly. I would definitely recommend this company and will use them in the future

The move went very smoothly. The crew arrived on time, worked efficiently and were done before the scheduled time. They were very professional, courteous, and handled our furniture as if it were their own.

I was totally satisfied. I would highly recommend Ferraro. I have nothing bad to say about them at all. Everything went well. Everything was labeled and everything was in great shape. I can't say anything negative about them.

The owner/GM showed up on time at my house for the quote. I found him a bit abrupt ("Let's get started" the second he walked in) but I realize he is busy and doesn't want to waste time. After showing him what is being moved and what is being put into storage, we sat down so I could ask my questions. About half the movers I interviewed gave me a quote on the spot, the other half sent later. Peter Ferrarro sends quotes later (which is fine). When I asked how long he quoted me a few days to get the quote. I said he was my last interview, so the sooner the better. He responded, "I'll do the best I can and get it to you as quick as possible. We're really busy and I've had like 8 quotes today alone". Like that is my problem? I also asked how many jobs they do out of state and he commented that they "prefer jobs within NJ". That he doesn't want to have "send his guys all over".  Wow, thanks for that vote of confidence!  I eventually got the quote (within 36 hours later) over email. No message with it or anything. Just an attachment, which I found unprofessional. The quote was a total bunch of scribble. There were so many #'s on the form I couldn't make heads or tails of it.  It wasn't organized in any manner for me to look at it (all the other companies itemized all the items moving and everything was printed professionally).  Eventually I realized it came to $9000. Keep in mind, the next highest quote I received from the other 5 providers i interviewed was $7000. So he was nearly 30% more than the next most expensive quote. I have a 3 bedroom house. I don't live in a mansion.
What I realized is that Peter Ferrarro never wanted this job because it's out of state, and came up with a quote so outrageous that I would never take the job. Don't waste my time! Next time tell me on the phone you don't want to do an out of state job, or that you are too busy.  
The owner/GM just has a really cocky attitude about him. Perhaps he doesn't want to deal with a woman. Not sure what his problem is. 

Exceptional they were professional courteous, efficient I will use them again and again as well as recommend them to everyone.

Price was higher than most, but professionalism, care, handling of difficult furniture, etc.  all excellent.  Move took them much longer than they anticipated -- they brought out extra men and kept it going.

Everything went well.  They were late in arriving as I believe they went to fuel up the truck, but they finished within the time quoted.
The men were willing to  set up the furniture anyway we wanted.They were very accommodating

Peter came to the house and advised us on the procedure.  He spoke directly to the manufacturer to find out the details and special handling needed.  He followed up with the shipper when they "lost" it for a day.  He kept us informed on the shipping progress.  It was a tight squeeze with special handling and Peter and his men did an excellent job.  We would definitely use Ferraro Moving if we ever moved.

The name of those movers are Universal Movers.

Very well, prompt, courteous, just as promised.

They provide everything. Including the 2 days of packing and moving, it's probably about $5500. They wrap it in special paper and they do whatever you ask. I've used them 2 times in the past and they are very good. For price, they are pretty reasonable and their price is what they said it's going to be, they don't tell you the price and then they'll change it.

My wife and I (and 2 1/12 yr old) had a great experience using Peter Ferraro.  We needed to move out of our condo on 5/29/13 to stay with family, and then we didn't move into our new house until 7/19/13 so we also used Peter Ferraro to store our furniture and other property for almost 2 months since they have their own storage facility. 
I had researched and gotten quotes from around 7 reputable moving companies in southern Rockland County/Northern NJ and Peter Ferraro was comparable with the lowest quotes I received.  Peter (the owner) came to our condo to do an onsite estimate of the move and estimated it would take about 5 1/2 hrs.  Even when I told him we may use another moving company, Peter still volunteered to call a 3rd party storage facility to get us a deal on a unit.  Judging by his honesty and favorable quote, we ended up choosing Peter Ferraro.
We were quoted for 5 1/2 hrs, but the move-out came in at 5 hrs, so it was less than what we were quoted for.  The foreman (P.J. who I believe is a family member) was very friendly as were the other 3 workers.  They barely took any breaks and P.J. made sure that the entire opertaion went smoothly and that all of our requests were met.
The move-in to our new house also took the 5 hr minimum, so there was no additional amount than what was quoted.  The foreman on that job was another family member (Phil) and he had two different workers with him.  Once again the entire job went smoothly and my wife and I had no issues at all with the result.  All of our furniture and other belongings were in the same condition as they were when we had put them into storage two months prior.
So, after using Peter Ferraro for two moves, having to store our furniture and other property at their facility for two months, dealing with 2 different foremen, 5 different other workers and Peter himself, I can say I'm glad I did my research and chose Peter Ferraro for our moves.  The total move (which includes 2 5-hr moves with $75 in insurance for each and 2 months of storage) came to about $2,500.  The $970 I referenced above would be for a normal 5-hr move with insurance.
Moving was stressful on its own when there weren't any issues and Peter Ferraro made sure to ease that burden.  They are an honest family-run business that I would not hesitate to recommend to anyone.  We have family friends that are moving this month (August 2013) and I instantly recommended Peter Ferraro to them (who I believe they will end up using).

The movers arrived on time for our first move. The manager on the job (PJ) walked through the house with us to determine what was to be loaded onto the truck and what wasn't, he was very thorough and he and his team did an excellent job. They worked quickly and were very professional and polite. When they were done, it took approximately 3.5 hours to pack our entire house, PJ reviewed the details of our inventory list, as well as contact information and next steps in the process. The day we moved into our new home the movers arrived ahead of schedule and again worked very quickly. All of our belongings arrived intact with no damage to speak of. We would definitely use Peter Ferraro again and recommend them to anyone in need of moving and storage services.

My experience was very good.  They were very fair.  They were prompt and courteous.  They came in under budget.  They were the lowest.

Everything went smoothly. They were prompt, courteous and professional. Peter and his team were just awesome! I would definitely use them again and highly recommend them.
