We used these guys for our move from a third floor walk up (with killer stairs) to a first floor…read moreapartment in the city. Overall they had the best rates and don't charge extra for the truck or the travel fee (which is actually a fee for the time it takes a moving company to get to your place and then back home after the job is done). They were a bit slow to respond at first, but were very helpful in helping us prep for the move to reduce cost (making sure all is packed, having boxes of similar size stacked together because that's how they move them - by size and not by room designation). And they hustled. The moved ended up taking longer than we anticipated (lots of stairs!) but they ended up charging us less than we thought - they stopped by for lunch on the way to the new place and didn't charge us for that time. I don't believe they're insured, so not sure if I would recommend them if you have a lot of stuff. But they took good care of our IKEA stuff and I will use them again next time we move.

All the communication is rapid, clear, and convenient. Price: on par with other professional moving companies in the area. Move experience: Seamless. The movers called to say they'd be a few minutes late because of truck issues, but they more than made up for that time by working quickly. They sent 5-6 people to help with our huge move (finally, a company that understands how to staff large moves!), were prepared to handle some very heavy and oddly shaped items, and were extremely proactive and patient with helping me figure out where to put some furniture in smaller spaces in my new house. Vibes: The movers treated our items with care, treated our home with respect, and were still incredibly fast with making the move. I mainly communicated with the manager of the crew, who knew his stuff, was professional, and was patient with my questions and concerns. Overall: great experience (as great as the misery of moving can be, and I've already hired them for a second time for another move!

I had hired these movers from a friend who had positive things to say about the company. My…read moreexperience overall wasn't the best. I reached out to Mike to address a few concerns regarding our move. First is my damaged office chair. My computer chair was not wrapped during the move, which resulted in permanent staining. I noticed this damage immediately after the chair was brought into my new place. When I pointed it out to one of the movers, he acknowledged it but said he wasn't sure what happened and did not offer further explanation. Given that I was charged for wrap and tape, I expected that all items requiring protection, particularly fabric furniture, would be appropriately wrapped to prevent damage. During the initial phase of the move, there was a noticeable delay when the entire team was at the loading dock. My partner and I had to wrap our TV ourselves using their blankets and our tape. After waiting 10-15 minutes without seeing any movers return to the apartment (despite the fact that my partner, a family member, and I had already brought everything to the hallway), I went downstairs to check. I found two movers sitting on stools using their phones, with my furniture and items not loaded in the truck yet, and a third seemingly sorting through a toolbox? This delay was concerning, especially since I only had the freight elevator reserved for two hours, a timeframe that should have been sufficient given how prepared everything was (e.g., all items boxed, only large furniture needing disassembly). I mentioned the time constraint (10 minutes left of the reservation of the elevators) to the team, and only then did they return upstairs to continue moving the remaining items. Once we arrived at the new place, I noticed further inefficiency. While one mover worked on reassembling my bed frame, the other two were reportedly downstairs folding towels. The assembler was missing tools and had to make multiple trips up and down the elevator to retrieve the necessary items. This extended the move time unnecessarily and raised concerns about how time was being managed while I was being billed hourly. Lastly, I had to manually remove tape that had been applied directly to my furniture, including the TV stand, which could have potentially caused damage. That said, I felt there was a general lack of urgency and coordination that extended the move time and caused some frustration on my end. I've respectfully paid the full amount, including a tip for the third mover who was added last-minute without charge. Mike was contacted and someone emailed me back and accused me of lying and saying my chair already had a stain and willing to offer you $20 for cleaning products to help remove the stain. And a $20 credit on any future moves. No, thanks. My chair did not have a stain prior and if there was, the crew did not mention it beforehand. But they were able to mention about my cracked drawer frame? I hired and paid for movers to safely and professionally move my items with efficiency, not to damage my chair by not wrapping it at all and moving without any urgency as I was billed hourly. If my partner and I did not help move items, it would've taken them even longer than 5 hours to complete the move. 2 stars because the guys were kind and at least moved our stuff with our hand in help. Other stars knocked off for lack of efficiency during the move to then be charged more per hour and damaged $100+ furniture item, which then was only offered $20 for cleaning products and $20 off for our next move? Not ok.

After extensive research, I chose Stevenson Transfer because of their 5 star reviews for my move…read morelast summer. ST wasn't the highest quote I received and they weren't the lowest, but my gut told me this was the company I should go with because It's family owned and operated and you work on your move with the actual people who control the logistics of getting everything right. It was one of the best decisions I ever made. I can't tell you how many times between booking the move and the actual move itself, that I patted myself on the back for having had the good sense to choose them. It's hard to imagine there's a company out there who is better at what they do. I moved from Chicago to Newport Rhode Island at the height of the pandemic in July 2020 and ST never skipped a beat I can't stress enough how wonderful ST is. There were various things that came up during my move that were out of my control and Stevenson Transfer came to the rescue every time. Angie and Cindy (who will become your best friends if you choose ST for your move) are nothing short of amazing. I was in constant contact with them as things came up unexpectedly or changed. The movers who actually do the move are some of the most professional people I've worked with. Choosing ST was honestly one of the best decisions I ever made. Do yourself a favor and book them for your move. They are, simply, just that good! You won't regret it. Thanks ST for all your help and support - Margie
