    I called last minute to move some furniture and Kareem responded quickly with a reasonable estimate.

    Moving day can be stressful and not having a well planned estimate will cause issues…read more We were quoted $1,300 - $1500 for two men and a half day. We were asked to send pictures of all our items so they can fine-tune the estimate and make sure they are properly prepared to meet the customers' needs. We followed their request and sent pictures of EVERY item to be moved. Subsequent to sending the pictures the estimator said that after reviewing the photos he would like to add an additional man and increase the time based on his review of the photos. Their proposal was increased slightly ($1,500 - $1,700) (we had no issues with the request), and we awaited their arrival on moving day. Moving day came the workers on the truck were very nice. However mid-way through moving things went south fast. The workers broke an expensive glass bar cart and called to inform their home office. The original estimator then called to say we had more stuff than anticipated and the truck was full. The stuff was exactly what was in the one dozen photos sent two weeks prior to the move. These photos contained all the furniture and all of boxes that we had packed for the move. He then proceeded to state that we "didn't inform them there were boxes to move" (a complete lie). We calmly said two of the pictures sent to you (which the workers on site actually had on their cell phones) have a stack of boxes in the family room and another from the garage. He said well, "people move their boxes themselves sometimes'". Our response was simply questioning why we would have sent the pictures, at their request, if we intended to move them on our own. After arriving at 11:05 and deciding they were done at 5:30 sharp, the movers left over 20% of the remaining contents. They said they needed to move what they have in the truck and "they would come back the next day", but we would be getting another quote for the remaining move. When I questioned the additional quote the gentleman from the home office then revised it talk track to say he would not be able to insure he could come back tomorrow (Saturday, knowing the house was being sold) and stated and he would do it in 3 days (past the date of the house being sold) but the quote had to be signed to get on a possible schedule. He carried on saying "couldn't disrupt his clients already on tomorrows schedule". I guess its OK to disrupt a client by leaving 20% of the job behind. His quote for completing the move arrived the next day and the move would now be almost double the original price! Needless to say we quickly found an honest and reputable company for less than 1/2 of the additional quote from Two Movers. Two days later they sent a final bill for $800.00 more than his revised estimate, bringing the total moving cost to more than twice their original estimated when added to the additional mover we had to hire. We informed them of their error in number of hours billed, and reminded them they didn't complete the job, and that they broke the bar cart. Their response was that the bar cart isn't covered as they were not specifically informed of it in the move list, but they would give me $50.00 for it even though it was included in the pictures we had sent which prompted them to increase the original estimate. They said any items not specifically "written" on the contact were not their liability! The reality is they received pictures of all the items being moved, they double checked those photos well enough to increase the estimate to include an additional man. While we hope for a fair resolution that accurately accounts for actual hours worked and the damage to the property they caused, we have so far not heard back from them revising their billing or received any apology for the distasteful experience Update : The owner called apologized for the stress and miscommunications and we settled on a fair amount for the work they did The owner was very nice and concerned about our experience and perception of his office staff because it's not what the majority of his customers experience according to him My advice ask a lot of questions and list as many of your bigger or more expensive/delicate items upfront so you can openly discuss how they will be handled. Ask about travel timing billing and supplemental insurance for your property

    I hired All My Sons to do a one-mile move of a really tall and heavy washer/dryer combo tower from…read morea first-floor condo to the basement of a house. I called the day before we needed to move it, and got lucky that they had a cancelation and could squeeze us in with 1 days notice. The unit was heavy and awkward and had to go down some steep stairs into a basement. The movers handled the job professionally and got the machine into the basement with no damage to the machine, the house, or themselves. That was quite an accomplishment!!! If I had one concern about All My Sons it's their failure to clearly communicate pricing and liability limitations. I was told that their minimum charge is 2 hours. It's actually 2 hours plus travel time. And, I wasn't told that their liability limitation is 60 cents per pound. That would have come out to $240 for a $1500 appliance -- definitely not enough to replace the appliance if something had happened. I might not have hired All My Sons if I'd seen this. We got lucky.

    After hiring a moving company a couple years before, I knew what I liked and did not like. I had…read morerequested a quote from Collegian when I last moved in 2016. However, I went with another company, that quoted me a flat hourly rate. I thought a 3-man move would be quick and efficient, at only $150/hour, guess-timating about $500. However, those movers were not, in fact, efficient (mainly due to back-office/poor dispatching issues, since it was the end of the day). With Collegian, I dialed the phone number and reached a person. I didn't get re-routed to a local office. I spoke with an actual, local employee. I told him about the size of the job and what items I needed to move. I requested an early move time, which they put in my request. I immediately received an email confirmation with a link to my account details on the website. A couple days before the move, they confirmed via email, acknowledging my morning move-in request would be granted. I was given an arrival window of 8-10:30 am. At 8:30 am, I received a call that the crew was on its way. They added another man (from a two to three-man crew), which increased the price an extra $25/hour. I figured that the move would have gotten completed faster. By 9:15, the crew arrived and got started. It wasn't a huge move, just furniture. It took an hour to get everything in the truck and wrapped up. Once they got to the new location, it only took an hour to unload the truck and move everything in. Nothing was damaged. The crew (led by Rick) was professional, respectful, and efficient with their time. By 11:45, we were completing the paperwork to close out the job. The only snag was the final tally of the job cost. I was quoted around $4-500, but was billed for $750. It seemed high, so I double checked it and called the office the following Monday. George acknowledged the error and agreed to get me in touch with the bookkeeper. Erin, the accountant, got back to me with an invoice stating the amount I overpaid and promised to send a check to reimburse me for the over payment. THIS is how you run a business and merit a 5-star review; meeting expectations and correcting discrepancies in a timely fashion. Thank you, Collegian. I will turn to you first the next time I have to move (hopefully not anytime soon). **I previously reviewed All My Sons for a 2016 move. Check that out for comparison.
