Filled out an on-line inventory and was given an estimate. Salesman visited and we physically went through my inventory and their estimate was on the money. Confirmed that they drive directly from NJ to SC and no load sharing. Decided on a date. Had all of their cell phone numbers. The move was completed on the morning as promised. Was extremely happy from beginning to end. I would not hesitate to use them again, and I have no reservations with recommending this team.
Description of Work: I needed lots of cartons moved from NJ to SC: 100 small cardboard boxes, 8 medium, 4 large, 6 large plastic containers, a few odd-sized boxes, mattress & box spring, 1 chair and 1 recliner. With this amount of inventory, I did not need a huge moving van, nor did I want to be a 'shared load' on one - if I didn't have to.

Very nice but I think they have some organizational issues. Missed the estimate appt. due to computer issues, but did show up after we contacted them. All was looking very good, but after they left we never heard back from them again. They said they had the quote when called, but all of their promises to deliver it, get back to us, never happened. A call or email saying they couldn't take the job would have been enough. As our schedule is very advanced, we didn't have time to deal with issues such as these. I see from other reviews that this has happened before. Usually not a big deal, but when you don't have time to waste it becomes a detractor.

Response from Van With a Man
Hi , Did you check the email that was sent to you? . When you went to the web site you went to the wrong link and only sent us a email, we responded to your email with the proper link you were directed to go to the first time. You never responded and did not fill out our form. Your moving information is not in my computer system to receive a quote. You may have called but you may have failed to submit your form on the website. . To potential customers we do use a online form tool found on our website, you can fill out a full inventory along with all the necessary information I need to contact you. When you fill out our online form please make sure it's done correctly to avoid any other situations like this. Thank you.

'Van With A Man' was excellent! The movers, led by Sammy, were professional, courteous and moved our wall unit quickly and efficiently with no damage or scratches to either the wall unit or our new hard wood floors. I highly recommend them and would not hesitate to use them again.

Their quote for the cost of driving time was unclear. The quote wasn't totally clear. The truck they brought was too small. On the moving basis, they did fine. In the end, it turned out okay as far as moving.

Response from Van With a Man
Hi [Removed Member Name] your rate was given over the phone and via internet we discussed clearly how i charge for my services as well as Emailed you a detailed estimate with all charges to get started clearly broke down. its unfortunate that your time went over.and the truck was to small, when you were given your phone quote i ask a series of detailed questions to determine your size shipment the logistics throughout the home, outside and about the delivery access we also make an inventory of your items described if you had more items or they were larger than standard sized furniture or needed more quality attention, then we could possibly have needed more time to load and/or a larger truck to service your correctly. the rate you were given was not a flat rate it was based upon hourly charges.. drive time is part of our moving hourly rate it was not billed separately. we do bill a one time fee for travel to and from the job site that was discussed in the initial rates breakdown as well as the overtime charges if and should have they occurred plus we also talked about extra service like packing and glass prep had you needed these service as well. thank for using Van With A Man moving services please feel free to call us in the future for all your relocation needs and we will be sure to make your move extra great the next time around..

This was a great move. I spoke to Tommy several times on the phone and got an estimate of costs which was very reasonable. I subsequently emailed him a full list of all items we needed to move. The cost did increase because we added a few things but I think mostly, I probably wasn't as clear as I needed to be in our phone conversations. Tommy's guys, Tom, Jeff and Calvin arrived about an hour late, but I think this was due to traffic (North Jersey can be horrendous). Called Tommy and he immediately returned my call and assured me they were on their way. Sure enough, about 40 minutes later, there they were. The guys were great ... they were easy to talk to, very professional and did everything they could to ensure a smooth move. The overall cost was a bit higher than we anticipated but still reasonable. I would certainly recommend them to anyone. All of our stuff was loaded and arrived in great shape (haven't unpacked yet, but all the boxes arrived in great shape so I don't anticipate any problems). While I don't know Tommy personally, he seems like a fair businessman, and while he is busy, he always returned my calls and emails promptly. In addition, if his guys are any indication of how he runs his business, I would certainly use them again and recommend him.

We were very dissatisfied with the moving services and lack of professionalism and customer service shown by Van with a Man. We set up the move and storage with Tommy, the owner, and his staff for Saturday afternoon. We signed a contract and asked Tommy to sign it as well and return it to us. Although he never signed anything his staff emailed us to say the move was set and they would confirm the time by email. The time was never confirmed but we we were informed they would arrive in the afternoon. By 5pm we attempted to contact Tommy and were told the movers would arrive shortly. Over the next three hours we waited for the movers and attempted to speak with the owner. Finally, Tommy informed us that the movers had been delayed with a previous move and he was busy with his family and could not help us. Finally, by 8pm the moving men arrived and began packing the van. By 9pm my husband and my daughter's Fiancee had to help bring items down to the van or the move likely would have gone on til close to midnight. Approximately 2 weeks later, the items were removed from storage and delivered as scheduled. Unfortunately, the wood kitchen table was badly scratched, several other pieces of furniture were scratched, the legs to the disassembled kitchen table were missing, and one of the movers scraped the ceiling as he carried a large dresser on his back up a flight of stairs. The movers assured us that the table legs would be mailed immediately and that Tommy would promptly contact us to provide repair of the scratched table. After waiting about 5 days, we contacted Tommy ourselves and the movers were sent to bring the table legs and repair the kitchen table. The guys brought furniture markers and attempted to fix the scratches by coloring them in. Of course the scratches are still there! I would not recommend Van with a man moving services. While I understand that things may go wrong with a move, we basically felt like we had to constantly push Tommy to get the move done and he was too busy to care about customer service.

Response from Van With a Man
Well Folks, looks like we failed this customers expectations. Now we all know there is 3 sides to every tale , customers , mine and the truth.. So how do we accept this statement of poor quality by the Van with a man staff members. I'll say this , we answered every Email, Phone call, and text message from the whole family;[Member Name Removed], [Member Name Removed], and [Member Name Removed] before during and after there move and will continue to do so if they wish to call . Our moving crew did everything they were supposed to do on the job from start to finish. Sometimes while moving furniture things can get chipped or damaged or maybe a wall poked, these things can happen no matter how well we protect the furniture and the surroundings.. It's not like we would ever try to purposely scratch or break your stuff or even poke a hole in your wall, we never run away from our damage claims we are here to make your moving experience stress free, Van With A Man always stands behind it's work wether it was the best or the worst of jobs. We carry insurance for occasions just like these, and our staff is highly skilled in the Art of furniture repair. . Jeff and Craig did take several days to arrange free time so they can return to Pennsylvania approximately 2 hours each way on there own time to follow up and make sure that [Member Name Removed] was completely satisfied with her move. They even returned her kitchen table legs in person assembled the table and repaired all the damages the crew had left behind. If any one feels that our customer of service is not to there expectations feel free to call the office and discuss the matters at hand. We are open 7 days a week from 7am until 10pm.. Everything can always be worked out on reasonable terms..

This has been by far the most professional and courteous moving crew we've worked with. Phil, Craig & Tom were the guys who actually came for the moving. On the day of the move, they arrived about half an hour ahead of schedule, and got started right away. It turns out I had under-estimated the number of boxes we would pack ourselves. Phil said they won't charge us for the additional boxes, but instead will bill us $75 for the packing and crating of certain items that they did not anticipate. They even disassembled and then re-assembled our queen size bed, which I didn't think they would do. Weather wise, it was one of the worst days this summer, with temperatures well over 100 degrees. Yet, they worked without long breaks. With the actual move, they were very efficient and careful in moving the stuff, both while loading (carrying it 2 floors down) and unloading at the new house. I had a 27" CRT TV (heavy!) that I asked them to move to one of the upstairs bedrooms, but later realized that it took up too much space, and asked if they could move it down into the garage. They did it without a grudge. The only 'negative' thing I'd say was related to the pricing. Tommy's estimate was approx. 5 hours (@$150/hr + $125 for travel). They ended up finishing it in 4 hours. However, Phil said that the quoted price was a minimum for the company to do business. Perhaps I should have checked ahead of time if the price would be lesser if they finished sooner. But I let that go, considering how well they handled everything. All in all, we had a very good experience on this move. We would recommend them and definitely consider using them again!

After reading the reviews for this provider there was no other chice for me. The only negative reviews were by people who did not actually hire thie provider. that is a bum rap!! So I knew this was the place to go. My call to Tommy was returned promptly. He reviewed his prices and policies with me. We set the date and two days later his men appeared at my door. They were friendly, courteous and ready to dive into the work. I took them to each room and explained what needed to be done. The tough room for me was my daughters bedroom that had a bunk bed that need to be better positioned in the room. Of course that meant moving everything. they were patient as we looked at all of the possibilities and finally there was a consensus. to scratch the walls, or the furniture.They were extremely helpful and very careful not to scratch the furniture. Before they left they made sure everything was done to my satisfaction. the minimum time with this as all companies is 3 hours. They were complete in less time than expected. So, to my surprise, and delight, Tommy gave me a break on the cost of the move. he did not have to do that as I knew what the charge was going to be. But that is the kind of businessman he is. fair and honest! This was a very positive experience. I was glad I used this provider and anyone looking for a mover should use VAN WITH A MAN!!!

Response from Van With a Man
To all my wonderful and potential customers. I have been very overbooked this week moving houses and serving my public. I have not seen my wife and kids for 6 days and we live in the same house. I'm working on making all my people totally happy and stress free during there moves. I get home after 2 am and I'm leaving before 6 am to accommodate everyone I can. So I FAILED my estimate Not your job. Your F will not hurt me or my Business. Everyone knows I was busy working with other clients helping them move its not like I just didn't call and not show up for no reason. Why would the business owner not make a estimate ? Who doesn't want customers? So what I missed your estimate for your moving Job that is over 7 weeks away in August., this is a holiday weekend during the end of the month Rush. We moved over 28 houses and 207,000 pounds of household goods this week alone and I was at Everyone of my jobs making each and everyone of my customers 100% satisfied. Yes I couldnt get to you for your estimate and I didn't call you while serving the rest of my already booked jobs. . . I'm Very sorry There is "ONLY ONE TOMMY " and not enough of me to get around. It's not eZ when all of my clients only want to deal with me and not my salesmen. I work on my jobs and I sell the jobs to customers before during and after work. There is no one more dedicated to service like Van With A Man I do what I can for all of my clients , if I missed your estimate you could have called me like i called you prior to my appointment the first time. I showed you the respect and tried to reschedule however I took on every last minute customer who was left behind from other movers while i had every truck and worker of mine over booked so no one would get left behind and stuck without a mover on move day. I do my job 1000%. I will proudly take this F because I served all my scheduled customers and everyone of them will give me a A+. Remember if you choose van with a man and we miss your estimate please don't be as bitter as the rest please Stop , Think , and Call me, i do not like leaving any one behind I take my business personal and a situation like this should not even be a issue. I'm always on point and just a call away although sometimes obviously really busy. Read our real reviews and see what kind of service we really provide.

I spoke with Tommy several times prior to the move he gave me a set price and he assured me that enerything would go according to plan. Tommy sent Phil, Carlos and Rich to move my stuff. They were very careful not to damage my furniture and the apartment floors. The move was set for a five hour window, they moved me from apartment to apartment in less than three hours. I'm definitely going to hire them again for my next move.

These guys are excellent. They were very good with our belongings, even fixing something I broke some time ago. The loaded up a truck and van and held it overnight as I needed and delivered it the next evening, after the closing to the new home, even though it was late in the day. They gave us a bed to sleep in that night. they didn't rip us off and even the guys themselves were very professional and polite in our stressful time. I would recommend them as well as use them again.
