    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

However, after finding another issue after 10 days of being in our new place and finding more and more things broken I couldn't stay quiet. I disclosed all of my items and the multi stop move in my initial Yelp Quote ask, Joe gave me a quote and asked if he could come take a look around to better assess the quote. I agreed and set an appointment so he could meet my husband at our storage unit where the majority of our items where. He was supposed meet him at 11am after several phone calls back and forth with my husband he finally arrived at 3pm. He was able to see both the storage unit and my parents home where we had some items since we were there for 2 months prior to our move. We came from a 2 bdrm home into a two bdrm condo we have nice furniture and the table and couch were set up in my parents basement so he saw everything for what it was. We did not hide anything from him so when he gave us our quote and was lower than the other two of course we agreed knowing he was insured and had other great reviews. He sent us the contract we secured his services and he stated he would be at the storage unit between 8-10am. That morning my husband called him at 9:30 when he still hadn't heard, Joe stated he would be there in about 30 mins. After an hour my husband asked again to find that they were stuck at another job and since it was hot they would just come after lunch so they could get a proper break. My husband then got the call they were on their way when they finally arrived to the unit it was just after 2pm. They loaded the truck which took about 1.5 hours. They then told my husband they needed a break and were going to grab some drinks before meeting at my parents. Nearly an hour goes by and my husband calls them to see where they are to find they went to our new place rather than my parents house. My husband drives to our new place and allows them to unload to then come back to my parents. Once there they realized the truck was too small to fit all of the items so they packed what they could and headed to the new place again. At this point it was getting very late. At 10:30pm I called my husband to ask where he was when he stated the guys were still moving items into the new condo and they were dead tired. Which I'm sure they were, my husband gave them a generous tip and allowed them to go home once the truck was empty but since they took so long and did not set anything up, which it states in the contract they would, I had to sleep at my parents house in the spare room which thankfully had a bed!!! They never came back to finish the job so for the next several days my poor husband spent driving back and forth between my parents and our home to unload bins and boxes. He was forced to set up the couch, bed, tables and dresser himself. I am pregnant which is why my husband was so involved and frankly I wish I had paid closer attention to the whole move because here I am 2 weeks later fuming because so much was ruined. As stated he was lower than other bids by about 300-400$ which looking back on now I would have gladly paid since now the warranty on my $2800 mattress is void when he severely ripped it! That doesn't even include the rest of the items! So please know you get what you pay for! It asked how many boxes we had per room in the Home! 1-10 was the only allotment we had several boxes in each room. I was honest!

    ABSOLUTELY AVOID…read more Kareem--"The Spin Doctor" as another review called him--is a menace. I figured that one bad review was just a result of someone having a bad day. Not sure if Kareem or the customer, but someone. It seemed to be an outlier. Surely with 4+ star rating means I'll get a decent experience. Kareem was my primary contact and who I arranged the move with. I sent videos ahead of time to show the job to be done. Kareem did not ask questions. I got a quote and decided to see what I can get done on my own with family to save money. Economy sucks, yadda, yadda. I came back and explained how we did some ourselves and there's less work to do now. I explained what was left. Kareem did not ask questions. I then asked for an hourly rate. I was given one, and we both agreed on the job. I paid the deposit. A few days later, the movers arrive (Kareem absent), and they were not informed at all of what the job was today. They also kept making comments about me being "on a budget" or something and being shocked when I explained the scope of the move. I felt Kareem fed them some nonsense instead of details about the actual job. The movers were fine, but their leader wasn't. 2 hours into the job, Kareem calls me and accuses me of trying to pull a fast one by going hourly (why offer hourly rates and accept hourly jobs if it's an issue?), misleading him about the job (how??), and saying men could walk off the job with my actions. What did I do? Was it that I sent videos and a description of the move? Was it that I agreed to the rate and crew he presented me? What could I have done worth men driving the crew to walk off the job? The entire call was very aggressive and backhanded. Absolutely asinine. Thankfully, Kareem didn't feed them enough nonsense for them to actually walk off, and so they completed the job... mostly. It was scaled back because Kareem apparently REALLY didn't want it all done. Maybe because he didn't send enough manpower despite knowing the job. At the end of the move, Kareem told the movers to collect payment. Now, this is completely reasonable. What's not reasonable is me not knowing the exact amount until minutes before yet being expected to have that money exactly on hand, and giving me an invoice from day 1 (updated at the end of move, via email) that has a due date in the future. I talk to Kareem again, and he says he needs payment immediately. Again, would be fair, if all signs didn't point elsewhere. I said the invoice gives a future date, and he blamed ME for it, saying I should have corrected him and he'd have fixed the invoice. I can't read his mind. I didn't know he made a mistake. I said I will pay, but I don't have the cash on me at this exact moment, and explain why as described above. He immediately gives me the shake down and jumps to aggression again, accusing me of playing games, etc... He skips actually trying to resolve the issue and instead threatens to call the cops. I offer to get the money from the bank immediately, but somehow he's still arguing with me about that. Apparently immediate payment isn't even good enough now. And he's going to have the movers follow me to the bank. What is this? Is knowing where I live not good enough that you need to aggressively "escort" me to the bank? Thankfully, The Spin Doctor backed off when he got his money. The crew themselves were mostly fine (if not a bit slow checking their phones at times--almost assuredly because of Kareem's failures in communication, or worse, Kareem harassing the crew?) and one item being damaged/broken. Again, avoid at all costs. I hope the men actually doing the work get a better gig because Kareem has no business managing workers or handling customers and his presence alone is good enough to write off the company. His communication skills are beyond abysmal and he went out of his way to insult me. It's a shame he's the owner. If my things weren't already on their truck by the time he called me the first time, I would've canceled and got someone else. Avoid yourself the frustration of dealing with The Spin Doctor and look elsewhere. ========== EDIT: Got a reply from Kareem. I can't address it all else I hit the character limit but here are the biggest parts: - Trying to save money is not a "red flag." - Kareem was shown the job ahead of time, and agreed to take it. - Yet his crew came unprepared and somehow it's my fault they were undermanned and had no gloves??? - I'm not obligated to tip or cater and I never agreed to (compensate your crew! I already paid!), but maybe I'd have tipped if Kareem didn't harass me, threaten to call the cops, change terms of payment, or the crew didn't break our things. Remember to listen the bad reviews. It's easy to leave a good review, but when you want to get it over with an forget about it, it's not tempting to take the time to explain your bad experience. If there's a few really bad reviews, chances are, there's a lot of bad experiences. ==========

There was also absolutely no communication with the owner. Even after we texted and called looking for them. They didn't finish moving us until 930 at night and didn't even put the beds together. They scratched my grandmother's piano, my dresser, my dining room table, my TV stand, they ripped the back of my sofa and a mattress, and added some dance to my brand new refrigerator. We heard the owner complain about not seeing his kids many times through the day while they rushed moving all of our stuff. Very unprofessional,siderate, And cheap. You get what you pay for.

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.

How can my order already be in process if they just opened up???

I asked him to call their shipping department to make sure it won't be sent out and he rambled that the shipping department is half an hour away and that it's against company policy to call them!! What kind of company is this???? When I asked to talk to his supervisor, he said that his supervisor was in a meeting!!! Yeah, right!
