"Excellent moving service! My friends recommended me First-Rate Moving & Storage for my move so I called them to see their offer. They gave me very acceptable price, I know that because I also contacted some other moving companies. The move went great, with no issues and quick also. I am completely satisfied how everything turned out and would highly recommend First-Rate Moving & Storage!"
"Cory and Colton arrived on the time schedule, did a survey on the apartment and quickly started moving the furniture. They were very professional and did the best they could to finish as early as possible."
"If you want a hassle free move look no further than Xpress Relocations LLC. Over the years I'd had many aggravating moves and was looking for a company that could deliver a smooth running experience with minimal stress and damage to my belongings. When the Xpress Relocations movers arrived, something made me immediately trust them. From the start they proved to be courteous, competent and happy to be doing the work. Nothing was too much or too difficult, and they made the job look easy, reassuring me any time I became anxious. They exhibited professionalism at every stage and handled everything with a great deal of skill, care and good humour, including some unexpected glitches in the new building I was moving to, which was still under construction. I would recommend this company to anyone."
"I used Teddy moving this past week as I moved from Manhattan to Brooklyn. The team showed up right on time and got to work finishing up the packing and moving everything down 5 flights of stairs. When we got to Brooklyn all of the boxes were very organized and I started unpacking them while the team set up my bed frame and dresser. Would recommend!!"
"Shleppers moving was incredible from start to finish. The movers themselves were incredibly nice, friendly, and professional. Everything was moved in a workmanlike and professional manner. Best moving company I’ve ever used."
"Incredible service. Was moving from New York to Philadelphia from one 4th floor walkup to another. The team did everything so quickly, and managed to move a lot of heavy and complicated furniture through tight stairwells. This is my second time using Great Moving and I hope to have their help if I ever move again."
"Optimum Moving made our 1,300‑mile move so much easier than we expected. Bert, our sales executive, was a pleasure to work with and handled every detail. Carlos and his crew were quick, efficient, and incredibly positive throughout the entire process. They transformed what could have been an overwhelming move into a streamlined, stress‑free experience. We highly recommend them."
"Excellent. Very professional and courteous. Extremely responsive and always got back right away. Went out of his way to accommodate me in a difficult situation when moving elderly parents to assisted living."
"Monroe Moving is the best! I moved from Brooklyn to Jersey City and Bryan and his team did a great job. Very professional, friendly, respectful… the move went smoothly which took alot of stress off of me! I am a very happy customer. Also kudos to Jonathan who I dealt with during the hiring process and the pricing! Highly recommended!"
Logistics companies are responsible for planning, coordinating, and managing the transportation of goods. They serve various clients and industries, typically offering truck, air, or ocean freight transportation. Movers, on the other hand, usually only serve individuals or small businesses. They are the professionals responsible for physically executing the move, performing tasks such as packing, loading, transporting, and unloading belongings.
Yes, tipping each mover separately ensures that everyone on the team gets their fair share.
Apartments come with strict regulations about what pets are allowed, so check before you sign a lease. If you have a fish or reptile, wait to move them until everything is set up and you’re ready to do a special move just for them and their aquarium/terrarium.
For a dog or cat, be sure you have a carrier before the move. On moving day, it’s best to designate a “safe room” or even a crate for your pet to help them get used to the new space. Keep everything they need in the safe room, and let them explore the rest of the apartment in their own time.
Hot tubs are very difficult to transport to a different location. For reference, a standard hot tub weighs about 800 pounds. This job requires several people, plus the necessary equipment and safety measures to ensure a safe delivery. That’s why it’s usually best to leave it to a team of moving professionals.
Moving a washer and dryer may require a permit as it involves changing the plumbing in a home. Plumbing related permits cost between $50 to $500, but a pro can typically handle this process end to end. Always check with your plumber beforehand if a permit is needed and how that may impact project timelines.
