I used Samonas three times in the last four years. They are always great to work with. Carefull, polite, hard working. We moved a four bedroom house and it went without problems. I would definitely hire them again.

very well, it took longer than expected due to furniture and space issues but the crew went over and above even after an extremely long day.

TERRIBLE!!! I DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS COMPANY!!!!! They showed up an hour late, put holes in my walls while moving my furniture, charged me for their cigarette/lunch break, added 15 minutes to the paper/charge because he was too lazy to figure out the math, scratched my newly finished wood floors, damaged my furniture, reassembled my bed backwards with missing screws....I can go on and on...
Response from Samonas Prime Moving & Storage

I have contacted you to rectify the situation and believe that we came to an agreement and reimbursement to fix any damages. We at Samonas Prime Moving have done all we can to remedy any short comings that we may have and would ask you to reevaluate your harsh review and grade of F. Realizing ones mistakes and correcting them is a big part of being a professional and compassionate company. Thank you Brian"

At first, I had high hopes for this company. Unfortunately, I was greatly disappointed. Three movers arrived at 9:15 and the guy in charge had me sign that they arrived at 9:00. They complained that the furniture was difficult to take apart which made me nervous about them putting it back together. Movers should be able to figure out how furniture works. They put it together incorrectly even forgetting to plug in a light on the back of the furniture. (I had friends take the unit apart and put it back together once and they did not have any trouble - they were not professional movers). Once the furniture is put together, you can't plug the light in so now the light is useless. They also put furniture in the wrong room even though I gave them a detailed layout ahead of time. They left plastic wrap behind - enough to fill a garbage bag. I also had to finish putting together my book shelf after they left. The worst part was that they offered to help my neighbor (who was moving himself out on the same day) move some things from his place. The movers charged me for the half hour spent helping my neighbor. It's important to note that they DID NOT ask me for permission to use my time to move my neighbor. I took the money they overcharged me out of their tip. I'm so disappointed in this company. Do yourself a favor and hire friends to move you or look for a different company.

It went great. It's a family owned business. It was five guys, I believe, two or three of whom were brothers. They were good-natured and careful and they knew what they were doing.

The first thing I liked about this company was Brian Samonas. We had extimates from 3 companies and I liked Brian the best. Not because they were the cheapest but because he took the time to check every room and our garage and explained exactly what was going to happen. On moving day we had everything packed andthey were right on time. They had everything our quicklyand inventoried everything. We had to wait about 3 weeks before we could close on our new condo and Samonas kept everything in storage. When the day came near our actual day to move into our condo I called and told Brian what day we would close. He said to give them a call when we finished the closing and they would be at our new home to bring everything in. They came in and within about 3 hours everything was in and set up. Nothing was broken and the price was great. I would recommend this company to anyone who needs a mover. They are well worth the price.

They are the best, amazing. Nothing was missing or broken. Everything was labeled. Everything really well packed. They were on time, strong, personable. The price came out to 400 less than the estimate.

It went terrible. I spoke to a lady in the company (Carolyn?) and scheduled an appointment for an estimate at Noon on Monday- 3/21/16. This was blocked out the week before. I called on date of estimate (3/21/16) at 1130 am to confirm all ok (as it snowed in the morning lightly) and was told that if "Brian"- (the owner )was going to run late, I would be notified. At 12:10 pm--with No Brian here, I called the office again,(because if they were running late or not coming I wanted to know as to get other stuff done in my life) I was told they could not get in touch with Brian but they would call me back in a minute. I called 10 minutes later and again was told they can't get in touch with him. GREAT!!!..... I tried again at 1230 and left a voicemail on the company answering machine------where did they go now?. Since they were a NO SHOW and NO CONTACT (call back)--I decided to do my errands and left at 1235 pm. At 1245 they show up and speak to my mother and what really sucked?....Brian actually had the audacity to be "annoyed"????? Here is a tip...if you schedule an appointment and it is 100% completely you and your companies fault...how about owning up to your mistake? instead of being annoyed at your NO contact and NO show at time scheduled? Its one thing if "someone" contacted me and stated..."Hey he is running late".."can we re-schedule"...etc..etc.....but NOTHING!!! I can't imagine if I actually was using this service and had a scheduled move?...Its stressful enough with moving but to deal with a company that gets annoyed at the customer for THEIR mistake and attitude?....yikes Now to their credit they did have plenty of positive reviews here, hence the seeking of an estimate. If it wasn't for the "attitude" involved, I wouldn't even comment here. When I got home and actually called him up (Brian), after my mother told me what happened, the attitude came through the phone loud and clear---why? its my fault you were late and did not contact me?...I think me reaching out 4x before and after my scheduled time was MORE then enough on my part. ...My two cents?...... . There are plenty of moving companies around, I would look around before taking the plunge on this one here...Good Luck....

They arrived on time, 4 guys, full size trailer, professional equipment for moving and items to protect valuable furniture.
All were very well attentive and cooperative. No issues in moving out day. They held items in storage for a day and moving items to new home went flauslessly.

Response from Samonas Prime Moving & Storage

"I am happy to hear that your move day went well. We do perform moves to and from the 5 boroughs of New York City, unfortunately it is too time consuming and costly for us to send estimators to these areas to give free estimates. Who ever you spoke with on the phone at our office never misled you that we would come in person for an estimate and asked you to submit a list for an estimate, which is a standard practice in the industry. Again I am sorry that you were not happy that we would not come and give a written estimate in Brooklyn but we never led you to believe that we would. I think that a D rating is a little harsh for work that we never performed and a phone conversation that is true to our business practices. We believe that you made the right decision and hired a company to better suited your personal needs. Please reconsider the rating based on the fact that we never misled or deceived you in way. Thank you for your consideration Brian"

We received a number of estimates for our move, but decided to go with Samonas due to their friendly and professional behavior.  I also appreciated the fact that it was a local, family owned company, and I like to support local businesses whenever possible.  
     The crew did a fantastic job with our furniture.  They took extra care not to damage anything, even wrapped a few pieces that we did not have time to get to ourselves at no extra cost.  Our new house had a tricky staircase layout but they managed to get all of our things upstairs without any issues.  They even finished the job ahead of schedule, so our cost was even lower than the estimate we were given  
     All in all the move went very smoothly and I was very happy with the service we received.  I would definitely recommend them to anyone looking to move.

Five bedroom move went extremely smoothly and efficiently.  They supplied five movers for 8 hours to carefully move the contents (mostly already wrapped up or boxed) of a 5 bedroom house from a friend's basement to a new house.  Three of the movers were from the Samonas family plus two others.  They were all friendly, professional and hardworking, and even seemed to have a good time as they worked! I have NEVER had such a good move and I've moved many times.
Highly recommend.

The move was great. The apartment was not only upstairs (which included a landing with a sharp turn) it was around the back of the building so the move out was not easy. Moving is stressful but these guys were so good natured, the day was actually fun and went quickly. It is a real testament to their work ethic. The job came in under budget and everything arrived safely. I can't recommend them highly enough.
