Highly highly recommend!! This is my first time using a moving company, I don't know about other…read moremoving companies but this one, they have made my life so much easier! Shannon was my moving specialist, she is super nice and responsive. I had a million questions and I was very worried about the move, she was very patient with me and walked me through each step, calmed me down. No hidden fees, everything's listed on the quote and if you have any doubt, ask Shannon and she can clear all your doubt out. On the day of my move, the crew arrived on time and were super efficient. All three of them were all very kind and they paid a close attention to the furnitures and all the fragile stuff. As I said, highly recommend. Really nothing to worry about, and if I ever move again, I will hire them.

We hired this company to pack and move our things in July of 2021. The movers were quick to pack…read moreand load everything onto their truck, but everything the movers did after they loaded everything was completely unprofessional and incompetent. After the truck left our old address, the movers took more than an hour to arrive at the destination which couldn't have been more than a 5 minute drive away. When the movers finally did come back with the truck, they were drinking sodas, so we assumed they just went to lunch. Nothing wrong there -- it was noon and people have to eat. However, at the end of the day they charged us for the hour they were at lunch (see attached photos). At the end of the move when we were unpacking, we saw that the movers had significantly damaged many of our possessions including our printer, an office chair, an office desk, kitchen supplies, our TV console, and had lost many items including the screws needed to reassemble our bed frame. The movers took no responsibility and just told us to search for the lost items in the old apartment (which did not have the missing items). Unfortunately we did not get an upgraded insurance policy as we did not expect a $240/hr company to be this bad at their work. We naively believed that a company with glowing reviews on the internet could do their jobs correctly. Nonetheless, we decided we would settle for the $0.60/lb reimbursement. After nearly a month before we finally got ahold of Prime Moving again for reimbursement, they simply denied that their movers had done the damage and refused to reimburse us for more than $100 for having caused nearly $500 of damage. Apparently if you don't take before and after photos of everything you own, they can just deny that their workers did anything wrong. It's truly a shame that this company won't stand by the quality of their work.

I reached out for help moving out of a personal care home. Not having any young people locally to…read morehelp with such a move, I turned to Yelp for referrals. I connected with Kris and his partner, forgive my poor memory, and arrangements were agreed to. Bang It Out came, saw, loaded, unloaded and made sure my walker and I made it safely back home through the snow. You can't ask for more than that from anyone. Thanks guys!

Movers were all very friendly and only two items were broken. They notified me right away. Most of…read moremy things were heavy so they did a great job on moving them in a timely manner. However, the movers were an hour late and showed up with an extra person than I was not originally quoted. Which is fine, if it doesn't change my quote, but what I was charged ended up being expodentially higher than what I anticipated based on the quote. Especially since I moved a majority of my items before they arrived. I had most of the items already ready and took apart and put together my bed itself. I even assisted helping move what I had left by loading the smaller items in my car. I moved most of the items before they even arrived so they had really only had the heavy/bigger items that I couldn't take myself. There were also 30 minutes I couldn't even find the movers, even after calling them. I had moved 6 minutes down the road but it took them over 30 minutes to arrive. I had driven back, double checked they got everything, locked everything up, came back to the new place, and still waited another 15 minutes. So they were off somewhere unknown to me. This also lowered my trust in their service. When I asked for an itemized receipt so I could double check how I was being charged, I never heard from them again. If you do decide to use this company, you should know that the quality is excellent because they take care in how your items are moved, their professionalism and communication is great but you may hear them complaining if items are heavy. I think the funniest comment I heard from them was "Everything is heavy Up in this Crib". I would recommend ensuring someone is there the entire time to ensure you track when they leave and when they arrive at the new location and have them itemize the receipt before sending you the bill. A vague receipt won't do to make sure you aren't overcharged.

Kelvin D Ferguson & Sons Moving - "No Job Too Small"

Kelvin and now his son, Djuan, have been providing hauling, trash removal, and moving services for…read moremy family and my wife's family for close to 20 years. I have used Kelvin in the last five years to clean out three family properties and to conduct two whole-house moves. Then last move this past September was two, 55-foot and one, 20 foot tuck on a 170 mile move (see attached pic). The move was made even more challenging by the fact that it included a family member who has Alzheimer's, and needed to happen quickly and calmly to minimize disturbance to her routine. The team, as always, was professional, meticulous, and careful. I have trusted my family's properties and possessions to Kelvin and Djuan and their team for almost 20 years. I have watched Djuan grow up and become a solid and trustworthy business owner and leader, and know his dad would be proud. I highly recommend Kelvin D and Sons!

Hiring movers was the best decision ever. I purchased a home and had enough on my plate. They got…read morethe job done! We completed a walking through and the details were provided. I knew what to expect and they absolutely delivered. They moved my furniture quickly and with proper care. They took my bed apart and reassembled it after the move which was a huge convenience. I plan to utilize their services for an upcoming small job. They're responsive and very helpful. I highly recommend hiring them for large and small moving jobs.
