They started work at 8 a.m. and continued working until 10 p.m., when they finished moving in and placing the last pieces.
The worst part of moving is figuring out where everything should go on the destination end. The crew had helpful suggestions and were patient when we asked them to change where we wanted some major pieces to go The crew for our move had been with the company 8+ years and worked very well as a team.
Their estimate for the cost of the move was a bit optimistic, but, given the amount of work they did and the number of items them moved, I was OK with the additional cost. Also, this move was based on actual time on the job and not the number of items moved. The big plus to this approach: they took the time to make sure we were happy with the move.
This move was within the same municipality. Shively's specializes in local moves in the Lehigh Valley, PA, area. My decision to go with them resulted from friends who had used Shively over the years and NOT Angie's list. Every one of them was extremely pleased. The biggest beef in the Angie's List write-up was a claim that Shively's was NOT insured. THIS IS NOT TRUE. Shively's provided a coverage certificate from one of the most respected insurance agencies in our area in advance of the actual move. We didn't have to ask for it.
Bottom line: A big thumbs up for Shively's Moving & Storage.
