I would highly recommend Efficient Moving when you need loading/unloading help. I arranged for them…read moreto meet me at 1pm. They arrived a few minutes after 1pm and had the truck completely unloaded by 1:45pm. I was amazed how fast they unloaded this truck. I will call Efficient Moving for loading/unloading help for my next 2 truckloads in May. Travis and his helper were great to work with!! The total cost was far less than other quotes I received from the competition and this company has been around for a long time. Thanks ! DBL

When I first contacted Efficient Moving, I was told that my moving charge would be $180 per hour…read morewith one truck. I then had one of their representatives, at their suggestion, come to my condo to see what and how much I had to move. When the Efficient Moving man came to my condo, I was encouraged to do a "per item" moving cost basis and was told "it would turn out cheaper" than a per hour basis. The man told me that typical totes/boxes were like $3 each to move and he would take an inventory of the furniture, etc. back to the office and give me a quote. When I got the quote, the totes/boxes were $4 each. Plus there was a $200 "Trip Charges" which was not mentioned to me before. They would not disclose what the individual furniture pieces cost to move as that was "proprietary information" so I had no idea how much more a big piece of furniture cost than a smaller piece. I didn't like the whole situation but the move was looming and I felt overwhelmed so I chose to continue with Efficient Moving vs finding another mover. On moving day, three nice gentleman showed up and it took them 3 1/2 hours to complete the move, working at what I would call a normal pace. The total charge was $832.50 or $237 per hour, considerably more than the $180 initially quoted me. It also took the mover an additional half hour to figure out the bill because of their complicated system.

We had a very disappointing experience with this company. We called multiple times in advance to…read moreconfirm my appointment and was reassured each time that everything was set. However, on the day of the move, no one showed up. After waiting over an hour past the scheduled time, We had to call them myself to find out what was going on; only then was I told the appointment had been canceled. There was no proactive communication, no courtesy call, and no effort made to notify me ahead of time. What made the situation even worse was the complete lack of accountability or assistance afterward. They did not offer to help find a replacement or provide any solution, leaving me scrambling at the last minute. This level of unprofessionalism and poor communication is unacceptable, especially for a service as time-sensitive as moving. I would strongly advise others to avoid this company.

From the time we scheduled our delivery, they kept us informed every step of the way through texts…read moreand calls until they delivered our furniture. They showed up on time within the 2 hour delivery time they gave us. The crew was efficient and friendly. I would definitely recommend!

I was first made aware of Island Express Movers because they left a flyer on my door. I noticed…read morethat they were offering moving services at a 10% discount. Since I was about to move I decided to check out their website and everything looked legit. I assumed since the owner lived in the same complex as me, they would be crazy to scam or associate in an illegitimate manner. Big mistake. I spoke to Whitney (Which I have learned is the owners wife) who assured me that a 1 bedroom move should take no longer than the 3 hour minimum. We booked the movers to arrive between 1 and 2. I paid my $100 deposit by credit card. On the day of the move, the owner called me and let me know the movers would actually be early. So I made sure I was prepared. At 1:42, I grew concerned about them showing up at all. The movers showed up a little after 2pm. They took their sweet ole time coming out of the rented U-Haul truck and up the stairs to greet me. I let them know every single thing I was moving was located in the room by the front door. They looked at me confused and asked to check other rooms to make sure nothing was left behind. Almost as if someone could not be organized and prepared. They started moving my boxes 1 by 1, no literally they used their delicate hands, fully accessorized with a diamond pinky ring to lift EVERY SINGLE BOX one by one to ensure that was the box that they wanted to carry. They did not carry more than 1 box at a time, so they single handedly lifted each box to ensure they were not carrying the heaviest ones. They ever so carefully walked down the 12 steps to the truck making sure not to scuff their brand new jordans on the way. About 2.5 hours later, we were finally on the way to the new place. Once we got there, only one guy was working because the other decided to stop and take a shit in my bathroom while I ran to get them the water that they had asked for. It took a total of 6 hours to move to a 1 bedroom apartment. 30 boxes. 1 king bed. Couch and a few odds and ends. Upon payment they demanded it be cashapp or Zelle. I told them I had neither and they started complaining about how I need to pay. I offered my credit card and they flat out said I could not pay with a credit card. The total was DOUBLE my original quote. They made sure to drag out EVERY.SINGLE.MINUTE of this move. I finally called my bank and made sure I was able to Zelle without any risks. They assured me I was safe to do so, so I sent the payment. OH! But not before one gentleman decided to offer his services of helping me make my bed that came with a sinister wink. Once they left, I texted the owners looking for a receipt to see what I actually had been charged for. No 10% off discount. No discount on the fact they used their time to shit in my bathroom. Nothing. Just a double-charged bill. I texted the company the next morning about my concerns. They replied with a half-ass response about giving them 48 hours to look into the issue and they take these issues seriously. I neglected to also let them know about the damaged dresser, damaged door and missing box. I figured, one issue at a time. 48 hours and 1 minute later, I heard nothing from them so I called my bank. And would you guess I can't file a dispute since I used Zelle. They made sure I had no way to recoup my money due to their negligence. I started researching their company and I am honestly shocked at the amount of fraud I was able to locate. They are not DOT registered. They have no permission to operate in a trucking capacity in any transportation manner. Most of the "reviews" on their site are fake. A quick reverse search showed that. I have been in contact with every single company they stole photos of. The picture of the large piano, showing how they can safely move furniture, also not theirs. It is a duplicate of a hotel in Japan. Their entire site is copyrighted. Which I am pretty sure makes this whole scenario a lovely case of Copyright infringement. I honestly wish I had done proper research before I hired this company. Typically I use larger, commercial companies and this time I wanted to try and help a smaller company instead. Charite and Whitney Gonzalve are the epitome of what it is like to be despicable human beings. They are a prime example of what is wrong in this world. They are complete scam artists and deserve every millimeter of bad karma coming their way

Honestly, I was nervous Local Anything was a scam because their phone number is in Florida & they…read morewere much cheaper than other quotes I received. Obviously they're not :). You have a concierge to answer questions when you purchase & a dispatcher to tell you where the movers are via text and/or phone call. A $400 down payment is required. Our rate was $160/hour all inclusive, no minimum # of hours required. We had about 25 items moved, all big stuff like mattresses, washer, dryer, couch, dressers... it took them 3 hours, including 25 minute travel time. All payment can be made online via PayPal. Tommy, Mark and Matt, our movers, were phenomenal. They offered to move any item we wanted & were great conversationalist. While they deserved several breaks, they didn't stop until they were done. The service, friendliness and communication from booking the appointment to the last item moved exceeded my expectations. In general, hiring movers is worth every penny. I can not recommend Local Anything enough! The only complaint I had was they arrived an hour and a half later than the 2 hour buffer/service time. Though they quickly made up for that small annoyance.

My home is a 4 bedroom house with a basement but not everything needed to be moved out. It took them way longer than expected to complete the move (12 hours one day and had to come back the next day to finish for 8 hours or so!). The total bill charged ended up being way more (obviously) than I anticipated.... Way too expensive than the competitors. To make matters worse, during our move (8/11/2019), the movers scratched my hardwood floor but were prompt in recognizing the issue and submitting it right away to their "Claims" department (I doubt there is such a department as I have yet to receive a call from them or anyone from this company in the matter). I have been calling them constantly to follow up on the claim as I am in the process of finalizing a sale on my house and have still not gotten a resolution. I keep getting the run arounds every time I call them and never get any followup call backs as they always promise. It's 8/30/19 today and still no resolution and I am closing on my house in less than a week. My latest call conversation was on Wednesday, 8/28/19 and the representative promised he would give me a status update on the same day and still nothing 2 days later. Mind you, when they were partially down with the work on the first day, they requested payment to be made right before they could leave my house but it's taking them weeks to even attempt to process my claim. SO FRUSTRATING TO SAY THE LEAST!!!!!! NEVER USING THEM, EVER AGAIN!!!

I am floored at the unprofessional, shady nature of my interactions with at least 5 employees of…read morethis company. I called nearly a month ago and talked to a nice lady named Michelle. I told her I was looking to move in a little over a month's time intra-state (so not exactly long distance- right at the border at 150 miles away) with a 1br apartment. With a few other details, she told me they had a special running and I could get 2hrs loading, 2hrs travel, and 2hrs unloading including 2 men and one moving truck for $1095. I said great! I got her number directly and said I'd call in a few weeks when my moving date was firm. Cut to earlier this week. I called Michelle last week and had to leave a message as there was only VM. No callback by Tuesday so I called again. Again I got her VM so I left another message and called the main company line. I first got transferred to the local sales dept and my call was dropped after ten minutes of obnoxious static noise. Then I called again and got transferred to a lady who seemed shocked at the price I was quoted and said "Michelle is my friend, let me get ahold of her first" and I was then put on hold for over 45 minutes before I realized I was being put off and hung up. I called again and got a guy who questioned me as he said they don't have trucks they only have pods and they will pick them up but the wait is about 5-7 days before they could then take it to my new place... he then transferred me to another person who then said he has no idea how that quote was made but the same details I told him were now running up to $1900!!! I still haven't had a call back from Michelle...or anyone else for that matter. It is obvious this is a crappy company with no coordination between employees and no one who can give me a straight answer or return a simple phone call. Cowardly and unprofessional. I will never work this hard to spend money at a business which is so shoddily held together!!! Take your money and go to a highly reputable national company which is bonded, insured, and consistent above all.
