This price included furniture insurance.
I had three different companies come to give me quotes, and South Hills Movers was the only company that actually used an iPad program to estimate every room of my move, rather than the "back of the napkin" estimates provided by the other two companies. One of the companies was slightly higher than South Hills, but the other was extremely low, and I could tell that they didn't know what they were doing.
The professionalism from the very start made me feel much more comfortable in this rather complicated (two locations and two dates to one location) move. Originally, I thought I would be able to do the whole move together with just a charge for an extra stop, but issues with picking up downtown from my office made me have to reschedule the office part of my move - and South Hills was fantastic!
The crew was extremely careful with my furniture, and took the time to explain what they were doing and why - it is obvious that they are true professionals who do their work with great care for the customer.
I would highly recommend South Hills Movers to my friends and neighbors that would ever need moving services in the future, and I strongly believe that they provided a great value (and peace of mind!) for my stressful move!
the new house, they were very careful not to damage anything or to track unnecessary dirt inside--I was actually amazed at how clean everything was after they left. The 4 movers were able to accomplish the move within the estimated time-frame (another moving company had told me I'd need 5 movers and more time), and they were very professional, affable, and respectful. The price was a bit higher than I would have liked; however, South Hills quoted me a lesser amount of money than the other company from which I received an estimate, and the actual cost of the move was ultimately even a bit lower than the estimate. All in all, I would say that it was definitely worth the money to get service and expertise like that. I'm hoping that we will not be moving again for a very long time, but when we do I'll be contacting South Hills again; in the meantime, I'm recommending them to everyone I know.
While South Hills Movers' estimate was a bit higher than some of the other companies I'd called, South Hill Movers' overall professionalism and commitment to quality really won me over. The fact that they do background / drug screenings on all employees and that their employees only work for SHM instead of transiently was also a big plus.
As a result, I called back on 20 Feb and scheduled our move for the following Monday, 25 Feb. Bonnie in the SHM office was a big help and being able to do all the paperwork via e-mail was an immense time saver.
Joe, Carl & Robert showed up only about 10 minutes late on the morning of the 25th and got to work right away. Joe mentioned that they work fast and wasn't kidding. They had originally scheduled 5 hours for the move, but thanks to their hard work it only took about 3 1/2 hours from start to finish and the final cost came in $300 under the original estimate.
The only thing that could've made me happier was if SHM came in and put everything in boxes for us. Moving sucks, period, but South Hills Movers made it a much nicer process for us. If you're in the Pittsburgh area and need a mover, I HIGHLY recommend them!
On moving day, the truck arrived right on time. No problems loading the truck.
Despite being delayed 12 hours by a snowstorm in West Virginia, the moving truck arrived three days early. They called me to tell me they'd be early (which I appreciated). This enabled me to be there when they arrived. No problems unloading the truck. Furniture in good shape.
The actual bill ($1974) came in $1400 less than their estimate. A very pleasant surprise!
I'd recommend these guys to anyone.
Sales Representative came on time and explained about the estimate in detail and it was reasonable.
Moving crew came on time and these three men were polite and their work was efficient. They came 8:30 am and started to load in and finished moving everything in to new location by 11:30 am, which was shorter than estimated time. Nothing was broken and they placed card board underneath the furniture to avoid dirt on furniture.
We were able to save few hundred dollars than other company's quote and we were so happy with this move.
