This was a very smooth and efficient move. My experience with Simi in the office was professional, informative and his pricing was fair. He also took the time to explain how things are wrapped and moved and any extras we might incur. The team of movers (Mario, Gerald and John) are unparalleled in their abilities. They were all courteous, professional and strong. All articles were wrapped and delivered in perfect condition. And this was a two stop two day move! We are very happy with the impeccable service we received fro U.Santini and would hire them in a heartbeat

Great experience! Dan and Simi where super helpful with answering questions, providing options and not pushy or deceitful in terms of price. The movers John, Joseph, Vincent and Billy were very efficient and very careful with all the furniture. No scratches or accidents happened. They also went out of their way to accommodate us in finding boxes and things that were not part of the move but which we accidentally put along with the other packed boxes. Very professional and pleasant to deal with - will definitely use them for another move.

I had a phenomenal moving experience with U. Santini - extremely professional and great people. Simi came over within a day of me phoning him to give me an estimate, which by the way was spot on. Moving from the Upper West Side to Park Slope was very stress-free thanks to Mario and his team Oscar, Robert and Gourno. They were very careful not only with my belongings but with the walls and stairways in both apartments. I recommend this company very highly!

We had investigated two companies before finally deciding to go with U. Santini Inc and I couldn't be more pleased. The guys were on time, professional and exceptionally helpful. Moving is stressful, and they made life so much easier. We had an estimate done prior to our move, my husband met with Simi (Simeon) and had nothing but wonderful things to say about his extreme professionalism, honestly and up front attitude. Super Mario, Oscar, John and Edwin were the perfect fit for our move. They took apart some of our larger furniture and packed some things that I ran out of boxes for. They loaded the truck with a smile, and had a wonderful sense of humor. We look forward to finding our home to have them move our items out of storage and into our new place. Thank you gentlemen.

Excellent job by our moving team, Mario, John, Oscar, Robert and Jose TX! Thank you so much for making an emotional, difficult, stressful day seamless and worry free. Our crew packed up all the large furniture in our 5 bedroom single family home and moved it to 4 separate locations in NJ and 2 in Brooklyn in one day. Everything including our baby grand piano was packed up with care and nothing was damaged in the process. Mario the supervisor continually touched base along the way and was clear in explaining every step the entire day. Service with a smile even through the downpours and soaking wet half way through the day! Highly recommend the U. Santini

This company is very responsive and easy to work with. They came out to my co-op to do an estimate and were able to do my move even though it was very last minute. The movers were very professional and showed up on time. U Santini held my items in storage for a month and then delivered to our new house. There was a little confusion about the delivery but U Santini was flexible and willing to work around my scheduling constraints. I would highly recommend this moving company.

We could not have asked for a smoother move. Super Mario and his team (John/Matt/Jose) were all fantastic. They all worked with extreme carefulness and precision, all while keeping us informed of everything along the way. They finished almost an hour earlier than the estimated time, which was greatly appreciated. They even offered advice along the way to further protect our furniture during the move and when everything was being set up. We would most definitely recommend U Santini Moving to others and if you choose them, definitely ask for Super Mario's team!!!

Excellent work. Timely, efficient, and professional team. Wil, Justin, and John took great care of my furniture wrapping it so well that there were no exposed pieces. I had limited inventory, but it needed to be moved from NYC to PA. Brian's quote was just about spot on. No hidden fees, and no job too small for these guys. Well done. Thank you.

Response from U Santini Moving & Storage Inc
Our goal is to always treat all our customers with respect and honor our reputation of more than 85 years in this industry by being honest. There are instances where we make mistakes because moving is handled by human care, not machines. When those errors occur, we do the right thing and rectify the matter immediately. In this instance, the customer was fully mobile but due to back issues was not able to perform any moving tasks. Our crew took extra care to ensure his new home was set-up properly so he wouldn't be inconvenienced. Unfortunately this complaint is simply false. Before our team departs the home of any client they are asked to ensure they are pleased with the service - which was confirmed when they left. It took FIVE days before this customer called to advise me (the proprietor of the business) that his ONLY bed was damaged. We moved ONE bed. I found it suspect that a person with his back issues wouldn't have used his adjustable bed sooner, but I still went to his home to attempt to fix the alleged damage my crew made, which I wasn't able to fix myself. I made an attempt with the manufacturer to send a rep to fix the bed but the model has been discontinued for many years and they could not assist - at which point the customer demanded we replace the bed completely for a new model and then refused to complete the insurance form (which he inaccurately claims he submitted) when we attempted to pursue some form of reimbursement to appease him. Furthermore, he has also reversed the charges for our moving services because he has not been able to extort my business for a new bed. I pride myself on being an honest man and business person but will to allow for false reviews to tarnish my family legacy. I wish you well, sir and hope you'll contact another moving company should you require relocation in the future.

The van and 4 men came on time, worked efficiently and carefully loading the truck with our items and drove to Long Island without stopping for lunch. All 4 men were personable and responsive to deal with. Upon arrival, they emptied the contents of the truck, putting things where we asked without obvious annoyance and objection. In short, they were terrific! This is the second time we have used them and did so because of a favorable first experience. We checked prices with 3 companies and U Santini offered the best price.

The movers were punctual and courteous. They packed mirrors, pictures, small tv, wrapped furniture & dissembled bed frame & headboard. We had packed about 20 medium boxes. All items were numbered & we were given a list of everything. It took about 2.5 hours for them to pack the truck. We were told that the furniture would be delivered within 2-3 weeks. American Red Ball Movers delivered it on 10/12/2013 which was within the timeframe. These movers were fantastic. All my floors & rugs were covered before they brought up anything to my 2nd floor apartment. No damage of loss of property at all. After hearing moving horror stories, I was extremely please with the service at both ends of my move. I would definitely recommend both of these companies to anyone who asks.

They were great - the apartment I was moving out of was on a street that was completely torn up with construction so they had to walk/roll everything down to the corner to load the truck. And in the midst of it all, it poured rain (briefly, thankfully). They were great, though - they were good natured throughout it all, got it done as quickly as possible (moving into the new place was SUPER fast). And no damage done to anything. I'm sure you could get someone less expensive, but not as good as these guys.

I called the night before, made the appointment for the next morning for between 8am - 8.30am. They arrived at 7.40am. They informed me the company insures items at 30 cents a pound. One mover said it was only if the items went onto the truck. I called the owner and he said the insurance is for anything the guys touch. I was told I could buy additional insurance. Since the items were not Ming vases, I opted not to buy the additional insurance. three guys moved the items in less than an hour and a half. They wrapped the desk in packing blankets and plastic wrap as it was only a 1/4" smaller than the door opening and the finish would have been easily scratched. My husband took off the apartment doors prior to the movers arrival to facilitate the move. They asked where I wanted the items placed in the new apartment. I had removed the desk drawers prior to their arrival so the mover didn't' know how the drawer went back into the desk (it is odd and tricky). Instead of jamming it in, he simply asked how to do it. He was concerned about breaking items. Not sure if I'd use the company again for anything more demanding than this kind of simple job. The 30 cents per pound insurance seems pretty inadequate - but I have not researched this rate compared to other companies - and the cost of additional insurance was too much for this job, but since it was only 10 items up two flights of stairs and all I wanted was for someone else to move those items, my need was met.
Description of Work: moved 10 items from 1st floor apartment to 3rd floor apartment. Price based on moving those specific 10 items (queen sized bed, desk, armoir, 2 end tables, 2 very small and short shelves, hard backed couch, 2 upholstered chairs)

TERRIBLE EXPERIENCE AND A BIG WASTE OF MY TIME.
Description of Work: CALLED USANTINI AFTER READING GOOD REVIEWS HOWEVER THE ESTIMATOR BRIAN NEVER FOLLOWED THROUGH WITH A WRITTEN PROPOSAL BUT VERBALLY AGREED TO A BINDING ESTIMATE OF $1087 FOR OUR MOVE. AFTER WAITING 4 DAYS WITH NO CALL BACK OR FAX BACK I SPOKE TO DAN WHO FAXED THE "ESTIMATE" WHICH WAS NOW OVER $1400. EVERY CATEGORY HAD INCREASED IN PRICE. I FELT THEY WERE GIVING ME THE OLD BAIT AND SWITCH ROUTINE. DID NOT HIRE THEM; WOULD NEVER CONSIDER HIRING THEM; AND WILL NEVER RECOMMEND THEIR COMPANY. AM VERY DISAPPOINTED WITH ANGIE'S LIST.

Our verbal estimate was given to you via phone based on your description of the items that needed to be moved. Upon our professionals actually seeing your home and the job - an actual estimate with correct figures was provided. No bait and switch here - ever.

Dan first came for a visit to give an estimate based on how much stuff we had, and it was accurate. While there he gave excellent suggestions for how to pack particular items and listened to our instructions (e.g., to lay the mattress flat rather than sideways). Before the moving day they gave us some boxes in particular sizes/shapes we needed for special items. Moving went smoothly and was both prompt and efficient. They were pleasant to work with and fortunately very flexible (our renovation took 6 months rather than 3, so we had to keep extending the storage and changing the move-back-in date). All our belongings came back in excellent condition and we were very pleased that we had chosen this company.
Description of Work: Moved all our belongings to the storage facility, stored them for 6 months, and then moved them back into our apartment. They provided guidance and materials for having this process go smoothly. They were pleasant to work with, professional, and flexible about extending the storage period when we needed to. All our belongings came back in excellent condition.
