    Labeled boxes
    Dennis M.

    I used this company twice within a three month period. The first move went really well so I thought I would just use them again for the second move . If I could give a zero I would. The movers if you want to call them that were people they hired off the streets and did not have moving experience. All my boxes were labeled but they could not read English so marking the boxes was a waste of time. Things were moved into the wrong rooms and lamps were broken. The crew leader was the only one who had experience but he could not be everywhere . A move that should have taken a few hours was milked into an entire day of moving. They also were caught passing my furniture out the balcony window instead of carrying down the steps. If you hire this company make sure you buy insurance, demand experienced movers. Have them Show proof. Because anyone can go pick up guys off the street. But to pay a premium for inexperienced movers is an insult. Management did provide me a discount and did fix the two broken lamps but only after I complained big time. They were only going to offer me a few dollars for both lamps which really set me off. Pictures of this move are enclosed.

    I've used Around Town Movers Before and went back to them for my recent local move. The move went smoothly and the movers were hard workers. But somehow during the process of my move, my TV broke. I called the corporate office and filed a claim for my TV. They were basically non-responsive but I was persistent and continued to call the moving company back to check in with my claim. They finally offered me a $50 credit to 'maintain good relations.' They said they aren't sure what happened. I paid for a local move and tipped each mover. I expected them to act responsibly and cover the claim for anyone but especially a returning customer. I'm shocked and infuriated they refuse to take responsibility for something that they broke.

    While our move wasn't perfect, it was good, and considering the difference in affordability compared to other companies that were significantly more expensive, I'd say we had a pretty good experience. We used Around Town Movers to move from our first home in Falls Church to a new home in Fairfax in November of 2017, with one night of overnight storage in between as we had back to back closings on both houses. The team came to our house to pack up on a Tuesday, stored our belongings overnight, then met us at the new house Wednesday to unload. PROS: -significantly less expensive than other larger companies with many of the same benefits -simple process to book and confirm -was able to request a nonsmoking crew, who arrived on time and were polite and courteous -did not charge us a fee for overnight storage -the guys worked pretty quickly packing up our things and wrapped everything securely (see photos) which was a big help as it was raining the day we moved out -house was well protected and movers did take care to keep our belongings safe. We had a few minor incidents but overall they did a good job -overall, I'd recommend and honestly wouldn't necessarily be willing to pay another $1k for a larger company based on the cons below CONS: -The gentleman who did our home visit to do a quote wasn't as thorough as other companies when it came to assessing how many belongings we had. He said he didn't need to look inside our shed or crawl space although I stressed that we WOULD need to move our lawn mower, grill, etc., and ultimately on moving day, there was not enough room in the truck for all of our belongings. Luckily between our SUV and a family member's SUV we were able to make a couple of trips to make it work, but it definitely wasn't convenient or fun to load up lawn equipment and dirty patio items into personal vehicles when we'd paid for movers. We did report the issue and they did remove an hour's worth of charges to compensate, which I felt was fair. Frankly, I'm amazed they got everything they did into one truck (see photo) -We did have a few minor incidents, one in particular where a mover was putting down an end table and dinged the wall pretty good. However, he did point it out right away, photograph it, and flagged for his supervisor. We also had some trouble with our bedroom dresser. During the initial consult we were told it would just get wrapped with the drawers inside of it, but they ultimately removed them during the move. When they reassembled the dresser during the move in, a few of the drawers were forced, breaking the tracks so the drawers couldn't be inserted smoothly (see photo). We filed a claim and got it resolved, but like most people, didn't opt for the more expensive moving insurance so we only got about $60 back on an expensive dresser. It's not totally ruined, just bummed that we were told it would get handled one way but was then handled differently, resulting in damage. -We bought the crew lunch on move-in day, which I was more than happy to do, but they didn't amend the hourly fees to reflect the lunch break, which some other companies do -There was a bit of a language barrier with the crew, which wasn't an issue for the most part, but at the end of the move when I asked to speak with a supervisor to clarify the hour they were comping for not fitting everything into the truck, I think the crew member who dinged the wall misunderstood and thought I was upset with him, and became upset. It was uncomfortable and I called the supervisor later that evening and asked him to please clarify that we were happy with the team overall and that our questions weren't based on their efforts Overall, it was a decent experience with more pros than cons, and I don't think I'd be willing to pay almost twice as much for a larger company - just my personal preference during an already expensive time.

    We had an EXCELLENT move with Around Town on the weekend of June 2, 2018. We moved from a townhouse in Herndon to a Single-Family House in North Herndon, and the crew did an amazing job. The process was so quick & easy - they actually finished before their allotted time frame. The crew showed up directly on time and got to work expertly packing the moving truck. They were careful to wrap furniture, and did not ding even one wall in the whole house. I hope to never have to move again (let's be real, moving is the worst!) but if I do, I would gladly hire Around Town Movers again!

From my initial telephone contact with Karey and our video walk through with Jon I was very impressed. Likewise, I was very pleased with the initial cost estimate that was provided to us. We did our due diligence and obtained two other estimates, both higher than the one from Prince. In fact, one was twice as high. We were a bit concerned about the great disparity. However, having been impressed with Karey and Jon and reading about the fundamental principles of their business we elected to go with Prince. I cannot say enough about the crew that handled our move. They called ahead of time to advise they were on the way - and on time ! Carlo, the team leader, was polite, responsive to our requests, flexible to add on a few things we needed to move, and his supervision of the other three members of the crew : Omar, Jeff and Mario. The care that the entire crew gave to our furniture, including some large, heavy wood pieces with glass shelves and doors, was extraordinary. The move was handled efficiently, effectively and expeditiously. Nothing was damaged ! The crew was great in moving things around to get them in the correct location. We were very pleased ! I must point out that this move was so well handled from initial contact to the crew departing our new home And it was accomplished UNDER BUDGET !! Kudos to the entire Prince team. We are grateful.

I won't name names of other movers I've used and paid 30% more for less results. I have a 15 monitor work station that I am very hesitant about anyone touching let alone moving, but these guys handled it like a breeze, especially during a rainy day on top of everything else. I don't usually write reviews, but when a company EXCEEDS my expectations, it's a duty to let others KNOW. I would want the same as well, especially with so many moving companies out there and nightmare stories. These guys are LEGIT and DESERVE their reputation as a TOP PLAYER in the moving business. Sorry for the duplicate review, found my actual account lol.

So after receiving a few quotes from a handful of businesses, I went with Potomac Moving due to the speed of their response, clarity in communication, pricing and overall warmth and professionalism. In our first phone call to walk though my needs, they were very assuring and accommodating, which is a such a relief in the midst of stress and coordination that comes with planning for a move. They were also always very responsive in the few times that I reached out between the time I paid the deposit and the actual move. A night or two before, I sent at email regarding wardrobe boxes, since I was debating whether or not I should buy and have a few delivered to me. The owner responded quickly, assuring me that wardrobe boxes were tried, true and if I wanted to buy any directly from them that I could. That ended up being a great call, because they were able to properly enforce the boxes so that even the boxes filled with my heaviest coats remained in tact. On the day of the move, the movers were communicative regarding their arrival time. They were also very nice and hard working. I had a few large furniture items that needed to be disassembled and they ended up being quite beasts to tackle. But they worked diligently to break them down. Once it came time to move things to my new place, that was a breeze. One gesture that I thought was just so classy, was the owner called in the middle of the move to check-in on how things were going - I really appreciated that. Overall, would definitely recommend PMC - they're easy to work with, fair and transparent about pricing and you're sure to be met with professionalism!

First, allow me to express my gratitude to this amazing company and their professional staff. The team consisted of four movers who, upon arrival, walked through the premises to fully understand the scope of the job before getting started.

They didn't allow me to lift a single thing -- not even a trash bag I had put together. I am so impressed that I can't wait to tell my friends, and I'm sure my husband will be recommending them to his coworkers as well. The movers even offered helpful advice on furniture placement, which made perfect sense after careful consideration. We have purchased our forever home, but if you are looking for a reliable, affordable, and professional moving crew, I highly recommend giving EZ Moving and Storage a call. Mr. Petro reviewed my inventory list, calculated the distance from point A to point B, and provided a more-than-fair quote with no added charges. The price he quoted was exactly what we paid. None of our items were damaged. In fact, they assembled our beds better than the company we purchased them from! I apologize for the length of this review, but that reflects just how pleased we are with this company. Job well done, and thank you for helping make our house feel like home.

Along came Bookstore Movers who quoted me a reasonable $470 minimum for two hours of work and a maximum of $680 for 3.5 hours of work (price breakdown: $140 per hour with 2 hour min. plus a $190 truck fee). I received a quote within a few hours of requesting it. There was no deposit required and the date was booked. I received detailed emails leading up to the move about FAQs, tips for a seamless move, and the names of my crew including contact info for the crew lead. Abdul (crew lead), Niiwayo "Y.O", and Milly were SO fast and friendly. They wrapped every single item with care in drop cloths and got to moving immediately. Despite the 90 degree heat and a total of five flights of stairs, the job was finished in 2 hours. I was SO impressed. I was so traumatized by my last move that I literally had to walk away while they moved the couch in but before I knew it, I got a text from my boyfriend telling me they had fit it through the door and our living room was all set up. I was so relieved and happy to work with them. If and when we move again, (hopefully not anytime soon, lol), I will 100% be contacting Bookstore Movers... and you should too!
