I ended up going with another moving company but these guys were my next choice - the other company just happened to get an earlier appointment to see my place and give me an estimate. Moving man inc. Gave a totally comparable estimate, much lower than most competitors, they seemed very knowledgeable and on point, and they were completely responsive as I called and emailed them numerous times, they always got back to me promptly.

I found the moving man from Angies list-I had some very bad personal moving experiences in the late 80's and nineties so I was pleasantly surprised. They were very professional from start to finish-Did not even bother to get a second estimate as the price was so reasonable-We packed ourselves and used the angies list coupon for free used boxes (you should too-boxes were in very good shape) we also moved an upright piano. Not a single scratch on anything. Final price came in under estimate.

It went very well. They were very gracious when I had to change dates two or three times because my house buyers kept changing dates on me. They were also good about changes in the move, and ended up doing separate moves for me and my daughter, both rather complicated moves involving several locations. The price was well below my other estimate, but the service was quite professional. Nothing was broken or marred, and all the packing and unpacking went quickly. On the day they actually arrived early, and they dealt with my disorganization and frazzled nerves without making me feel foolish. They did their work in spite of things not being nearly as ready as they should have been. Every step was on time, polite, friendly, and well-done. I was very, very pleased.
Description of Work: They estimated the cost of the move, which involved packing up from my house, moving those items to both my new apartment and to storage, and moving packed items from storage to the new apartment.

It was a three men crew, each man had his job and knew exactly what to do. They were courteous and did a very good job. They did not damage or break any items. They were fabulous to work with.
Description of Work: They sent an estimate and the final price came in less than the original estimate. They packed some of the larger belongings, wrapped furniture and moved all of the items from our apartment into my garage.

The moving crew - Fernando, Jose, and Hector - were really superb, speedy, careful, and communicated every step of the way with me. Everything arrived intact and on-time: they packed carefully and helped unpack and dispose of the boxes and wrappings. I highly recommend Moving Man Inc. (My move was about 150 miles, the contents of a three bedroom house.) Thanks guys!
Description of Work: Vladimir handled my estimate in a very professional and detailed manner and was able to explain the estimate and cost components clearly. The price was very competitive and was sustained on a fixed bid basis. John kept in touch the day before and during my move and he and his crew were able to manage around a snowstorm.

Everything went well. Vladimir who came for the estimate, Brandon who helped with our questions over the phone, the staff who did the packing/loading and the driver were all courteous and professional. We hit a snag on the closing of our condo in Cincinnati and had to make some changes in the final destination for the truck. John helped us over the phone and made the arrangements with the driver. We were able to communicate with the driver without a problem and he arrived on time and all of the boxes and furniture was unloaded properly. No missing items and boxes. There was no damage at all. Overall they did a great job. The estimate was fair and our cost went down significantly since the estimated weight was about 500 lbs over the actual amount once the truck was weighed after loading.
Description of Work: They were hired to do packing and move our entire household furniture to Cincinnati Ohio from Hoboken Nj.

The movers were punctual, efficient, and professional. They wrapped our heavy furniture carefully to avoid damage. When we arrived in NJ, they even helped unpack the wardrobe boxes by handing me clothing to hang in the closet. I heard horror stories about moving companies, but Moving Man Inc. did an excellent job!!
