I write this review in COMPLETE AWE of Manuel and his team. Scheduling my move with Manuel over email was quick and he was responsive to my questions. When it came to the day of the move, the movers asked if they could come early. Unfortunately my building would not allow them to come early or I would have taken them up on the offer to come early. Would have been done even EARLIER! Dio and his team were FANTASTIC! He and the three other team members were personable and ready to work. They assessed all my items and quickly began a plan. I was immediately impressed with the care they took with all of my items and how they wrapped AND PADDED my couch so it would not be damaged. They also took the care to take out the shelves of my bookcases and wrapped those up as well. This moving team was the first one to do that! When it came to moving the items into my new place, I only have stairs (luckily they only had one flight) and they didn't even hesitate/complain. It was beyond impressive that the team remembered where my items were from the old place and added them in the new room accordingly. They also re-installed my shelves. NOTHING WAS BROKEN OR DAMAGED :) All while this experience was happening, Dio and his team had a great sense of humor. The team really does hold up to "flash movers" because they were done in record time! From start to finish, it only took a little over 2 and a half hours for the entire move. The prices were completely reasonable compared to other companies in the city. It is without a doubt that I will ONLY use Flash Movers for any future moves! The team really has some great branding because they were done in record "flash" time. If you are considering moving, do yourself a favor and hire Flash Movers without hesitation. I promise you won't regret it! read more

Alejandro and his team (5 men total) were incredible!! They got here at 8am sharp and moved our 2 bedroom condo in Bucktown, to our new house in Skokie in less than 4 hours. They broke down our furniture, wrapped it, and rebuilt it upon arriving at our new home. **Also- Our condo was on the 4th floor with NO elevator. These men did not complain once and went straight to work. They were fast, wrapped our items extremely well, and were very careful moving everything. I have moved several times within the city and wish I had known about this company earlier. You can't beat their prices or their services. Super friendly crew too! Will definitely be referring them to our family and friends. Thank you, Alejandro and your team!!! read more

Flash movers were great! They were very helpful and made sure that the move was as smooth as possible. It was also a great value for the work. Would recommend to anyone! read more

A friend recently moved with Flash and he referred us to the owner, Manny. We had originally booked our move with a much pricier big name mover, but Flash's rates were much more competitive. They are a professional moving company and were able to provide the insurance certificate our condo needed. The team arrived 15 minutes early. We moved during COVID-19 and they had masks and gloves which made us feel safe. They came with all the tools, quickly disassembled large furniture, shrink-wrapped everything and got it out of the house. At the destination, they unwrapped, reassembled and took away all packing material. Team was courteous, respectful and all spoke good English. Manny was very responsive over there phone and answered all our questions promptly. Flash is our new favorite moving company and we wish them the best! read more

Flash Movers - Staff wore masks and gloves during COVID-19 - Movers Near Me - Oak Park , Illinois

Summary statement: hire them. This team is incredibly professional and efficient. And one of the most affordable quotes I got. Btw cash only! I didn't know this when reserving since they didn't tell me, but looking back at other Yelp reviews others said the same. I obviously prefer to use check but we weren't going to argue since they had a strong preference, and especially when they did a phenomenal job. The details: I first got in touch with Manuel the owner via Yelp who was super quick to respond and very transparent. The price he quoted was the price we paid. It's a flat fee based on items - they do NOT charge you by time unlike some other companies which is so fair because why should I be penalized if there's traffic for example? They wrap and protect everything in the price quoted and will assemble / disassemble if needed. I had another company try to charge me more because they would send 3 instead of 2 people-- I just think that's all unprofessional-- and appreciate Flash Movers isn't nit picky about silly things. Just send the # of people to efficiently do the job so we can all move on with our days, and flash movers does just that. I felt more comfortable sending Manuel an email with pictures of the items before reserving just because I have been burned before with movers, and he replied back that the price was still just that as long as the items were basically what I said I needed moved. I also loved that he upfront was like if I had a few more boxes or like lamps he wasn't going to hold it against me and would be in the estimate. I can understand if you're going to add a large number of boxes or items how that would affect things. We ended up staying below the boxes we estimated but I still appreciate that Manuel was super kind about it all. The new building property manager asked if the movers had insurance so when we emailed Manuel about that, he got the info ASAP. Basically, no stress with this company. The day of the move because of work I couldn't be there but my dad and brother took over and said Cesar and his team of 3 others were amazing. Cesar actually called about 1.5 hours before our scheduled move time saying he was available to come in a half hour and start (ie one hour early). That was great for us because we were ready to go; however, if we weren't, it would have been ok--- I didn't feel pressured by Cesar to say yes to coming earlier and I appreciate that tons. They got everything out of my one bedroom apartment in a half hour and the same amount of time to unload and set up once they go to the new apartment. Seriously, they are true to their name. They were respectful of our items as well and nothing was damaged. And just really nice, solid guys. Kindness goes a long way. Would not hesitate to use again and recommend to my friends and family. Thanks so much. read more

No one likes to move! That's a fact!! But Flash Movers made it a hundred times better. They were so fast, efficient and the cheapest from three others companies I called. I was surprised with the 5 guys who showed up (Rubicel, Angel, Roger, Antonio and Saul) who were like a well oiled machine. Our move was at 8am and they were done moving us in by 11am, no joke!! I couldn't believe it! Highly recommend!!!! read more

I really wish I could give a 10 star review! Ceasar and his team did an outstanding job moving me in the Chicago heat. They were super professional, arriving 15 minutes early to my place. I had 8 flights of stairs and a very large sectional couch that they were able to get out of my place in literally a 'flash'. The move was scheduled to take 4 hours due to the amount of stairs and moving from the southside of Chicago (Pilsen) to the Northside (Lakeview East). The guys only needed 2.5 hours to get it all done! I am forever thankful for them. The price was spot on and not expensive whatsoever. Thank you Manuel and Ceasar! read more

Flash Movers are the best. I've used them 3 times over the past 7 years and they have done such a great job every time. They thoroughly wrap and protect all your furniture and are priced at unbeatable rates. Highly recommend. read more

I've used flash movers twice for moving and recommend them to all of my friends! They are very reasonably priced, come on time and take the time to wrap all my furniture before loading onto the truck. read more

When we were moving, we were hesitant on hiring movers because we didn't know any. A couple of our friends recommended flash movers and we're so glad we did! Adrian and his team (2 other gentlemen) showed up earlier than expected, which was a plus for us! They packed our apartment in about an hour and some change. They also unloaded everything in about the same amount of time. They always asked where things should be placed. Everyone was super friendly, efficient, and cautious of our belongings. I highly would recommend hiring them for your next move. We are definitely using them in the future and recommending them to everyone! read more

Amazing. I never write reviews for anything but these guys deserve 5 stars. extremely fast, careful, and affordable. I called 15 different moving companies in the city and they all quoted for double what these guys did. If I'm ever moving again, I won't consider anyone other than Flash. Truly can't emphasize enough how happy I was with their service. Rubicel, Roger, Steven, and Raul were great! read more

We were blown away by Flash Movers! Manuel got us set up with Rafael and his moving team and they were professional, quick, and treated our belongings with care. All of our furniture was wrapped and securely placed into the truck. We had an issue with access to our storage unit and the team happily waited while we trouble shot the issue, never making us feel rushed. We are looking forward to working with Flash Movers again when we move our belongings out of a storage unit and into our new condo. If you're on the fence about booking, DO IT! You won't regret it. read more

I hired these movers because I was told it was $700 to move our 2 bedroom to a 2 bedroom from Humboldt to Logan Square, around a mile. I sent a list of our items to the owner and we were set to go. I want to mention that the actual movers were amazing, they showed up, very friendly, very very hard workers. Cash only by the way. Half way through the move the owner emailed me asking how it's going and I let him know later at night how everything went. First problem was as we were ending the move I was told not all of my stuff would fit and they would need to make a second trip to get the rest of my stuff. They let me know they need space in the back of the truck to put their workers, wildly unsafe and illegal but okay. They then told me it was going to cost me extra for this. They asked what a fair price was and I said $100, they didn't go for it and said it would be more. Not terrible because I have access to a truck and some friends but I hired movers specifically to avoid this and would have gladly paid extra for a larger truck. Second problem was later that night I found some items were scratched in the move, our brand new TV the plastic separated from the frame in the back, a metal kitchen cart was missing paint, a brand new dresser had a scratch on it. Not much they can do about this, I can't fix it but just annoying. I let the owner know all this because he asked and was met with some terrible customer service. Now it should be clear that I was not looking for compensation, the bill had been paid in full. Just voicing my concern and frustration because I was asked. The owner called me a dishonest and a bunch of stuff how the world is full of good people but then some people take advantage, idk maybe he was drunk emailing me at 10:30pm. No idea what they were talking about but it was very inappropriate. Moving in Chicago is not an exact science and I expect some hiccups. Our move was not the worst thing in the world, however for someone to get defensive is just silly. read more

I will always use Flash Movers for every move! They handled our third floor walk-up to third floor walk-up move like true professionals. We booked a late afternoon move, and with any other moving company I would have worried they would show up late. Not Flash Movers! They were able to come 1.5 hours early and they finished the job in under 3 hours. They wrapped all of our furniture so well and everything arrived safe and sound. They even graciously carried some heavy boxes back down three flights of stairs to our basement storage unit. The guys were super friendly and had great attitudes throughout a difficult move. Incredible service for a great price. Stop looking, this is the moving company for you! read more

Manuel and his crew are fast, professional, and reasonably priced. What more could you ask from a moving company? Highly recommend

I honestly can't say enough good things about Flash Movers. They were straightforward and very reasonably priced. There were not a million added fees and paying for packing supplies, etc. Rubicel, Saul, Steven, and Juan were so gentle with my belongings and carried all my stuff down 2 flights of stairs and up 3 flights of stairs. They were SO fast. My new place was pretty close but even with that we were done in about 2 hours. I can't recommend them enough. Don't even get quotes from other companies, just go with Flash Movers, you won't regret it. read more

I found Flash Movers in a Facebook group last year and engaged their services for a move from Lincoln Park to the West Loop. I had such a great experience with them last time, which is why I chose them again for my recent move. Rubicel, Roger, Steven, and Juan, the movers, did an amazing job handling all of our furniture and belongings. Not only was everything handled with care, but they were so quick and it was all done for a great price. Without hesitation, I definitely recommend choosing Flash Movers for your next move. You will not be disappointed. read more

This company is incredibly reliable, fast, and friendly. Rubicel, Saul, Roger and Raul moved us from our condo in the city including our storage unit to our new house in the burbs and took great care wrapping our items and were actually early to arrive. I can't say enough good things about these four guys. I will recommend them to every single person I know. And they are affordable. Thank you guys again so so much read more

Moving is stressful, and you never know if a moving company is going to make the process even more stressful. Fortunately, we had an amazing experience using Flash Movers! Each step of the move from booking the date, to the crew arriving on time and wrapping everything very carefully with tape and blankets was flawlessly carried out. The four movers that moved our belongings were efficient, polite, careful and extremely FAST! The one bedroom move (from a top floor unit of a walkup with spiral stairs) took under 2 hours. When we asked for the final amount, it was the exact amount quoted and not a penny more. Sticking to the quote is practically unheard of in this business! We were so pleased with the move that we couldn't stop raving about Flash all day. We definitely recommend them! read more

Would 100% use again! They showed up on time and were so quick. They brought all the necessary equipment to keep our furniture protected and to disassemble and assemble our furniture. They made our move so easy, it was basically under 2 hours. Not a scratch on anything and assembled super well! read more

Flash Movers assisted me with my recent move and they were great! Reasonably priced, prompt and took great care of my belongings, wrapping, disassembling and reassembling as needed and without asking. Rubicel and his team, Saul, Steven, Geovany and Juan, were polite, efficient and fast! They checked in throughout the process making sure items where I wanted items placed. I've used other moving services before and was extremely dissatisfied. I would definitely use Flash Movers again in the future. I also would recommend them to others. read more

For the price, Flash Movers is absolutely your best bet. I used them for three moves over the past couple years -- condo to temporary apartment, temporary apartment to condo, and transporting old appliances. The fact that I used them multiple times says a lot, since I'm a pretty tough critic. Service is a little hit or miss based on the foreman. First one treated his team poorly, which made me sad. After I mentioned it, Manuel apologized and personally led the team for my second move. I had a few small damages where I didn't take the time to wrap and box pieces myself, like the corners of artwork and a piece of plastic on an unboxed air filter. If you have lots of fragile goods, you're better off going with a pricier company. And they did leave some trash behind from wrapping materials. But all in all, a tremendous value. Note: Cash only! You'll get a very dirty look and loud sigh if you forget this. read more

This company is extremely professional. They responded within 30mins/1hr. They did a great job. They helped me pack and move all of my things from a 2br and they completed everything with 4hr. I'm so amazing at how wonderful this group of men are, I'm so grateful for them because and all the assistances with the last minute help pack-up. Thank you flash and I'm truly grateful for you'll and your patience. I'd definitely recommend Flash Movers and will use them again! read more

They are thieves. Stole my two bottles of good tequila and a drill. This was the second time we used them - they stole something the first time too. We had just assumed that we lost it the first time. read more

Wow! The Flash Movers Team was EXCELLENT. I specifically worked with Cesar, Luis, and Guadalupe. I hired them to move my larger pieces of furniture from Wicker Park area to Portage Park. Pricing was very reasonable and fair, they arrived right on time, and got my pieces packed up within an hour. They even let me throw a few random odds and ends in to the truck :) Upon arrival at the new place, a few of my pieces wouldn't fit - older house = tight turns up the stairs. They completely dismantled my headboard and put it back together to make it fit! I loved that they didn't want me to end up dissatisfied or left having to get rid of furniture due to this. Truly stand up customer service. Because of a couple of the unforeseen issues noted above, they ended up going over the estimated 2 hours but kept my estimate the same!! I cannot recommend this company enough. Thank you all for making my move easy and stress-free! read more

The best movers in town! Super reasonable prices just be sure you let them know what they'll be moving. My boyfriend and his roommate used them last year when they moved and we used them again this year. My other friend in Chicago was the one who recommended Flash Movers to us last year and we're so glad she did. They have everything you can need in terms of wrapping a TV, desks, etc. They can move big boxes and small suitcases and have definitely perfected moving people in and out of apartments quickly. read more

This was the second time moving them and was just really finishing the job from the last time. They moved some of our stuff off site for us because we didn't have room at the time due to remodeling the new place. Finally finished and they brought the rest of the items. They were better the first time (maybe the B crew this time) but still leaps ahead of the movers we used before finding them. I will definitely use them again if needed. read more

I used flash movers for a move yesterday as they were recommended by a friend. I was worried because you hear horror stories about movers not showing up or being charged way more than the quote, but this was the opposite. This was the most seamless move. They were on time (actually there 15 minutes early ready to go), efficient, professional, and respectful. The price was what was originally quoted. I felt like all of my belongings were handled with care. I really can't thank them enough! read more

I would never use any other moving service ever again. Manuel's team, headed by Caesar was perfect. I had several last minute requests including moving up the move date. They showed up early we're super friendly asked great questions before getting started and then got to work. They are so fast and yet so careful. Not a single thing was broken during the move. They carefully disassembled furniture and reassembled at new home. Great price for the amount of moving and the quality. I cannot recommend them enough!! read more

You should hire Flash Movers. I looked around the WWW for Chicago movers. About six places floated to the top based on reviews and I requested quotes. Manuel was the first to respond and his quote was the least expensive of the bunch. A crew of five / six packed everything up, loaded the truck, drove to the storage facility, and played some awesome 3-D Tetris in the storage unit. Start-to-finish in a little over an hour. Highly recommended ... I plan to get in touch with them when the pandemic ends. read more

They were super quick and very courteous . The packed all the good with care and even installled them at new place

Perfect moving experience. Easy to schedule ahead of time with Manuel. The movers were on-time in a difficult to find loading zone. They wrapping all of our furniture in blankets and tape, looking very secure. They were very fast while being careful to avoid any damage. We have a crazy heavy wood dresser and they were able to bring it up a set of stairs without taking out the railing. In total, they dissembled, moved, and reassembled 1 bedroom's worth of furniture in under 2 hours at the estimated price of $350. read more

They were on time, loaded everything (including disassembling furnitures and loading washer and dryer) within an hour, unloaded things and assembling of furnitures within an hour as well. I was amazed by how fast the whole process was. All the movers wore mask, and was professional, efficient, and polite. I would definitely recommend them to others read more

I recently used Flash movers for the second time, having had a great experience with them for a move a little over a year ago. Once again, they were outstanding - on-time, careful, attentive to detail, and very efficient. Highly recommend. read more

Manuel and his team went above and beyond. This was my second time using Flash Movers and both times they carefully wrapped, disassembled / reassembled furniture after bringing everything up 3 flights of stairs! They were punctual, professional and efficient. Rubicel, Roger, Steven, Raul and Juan were great and I highly using Flash Movers! read more

Manuel and team were very responsive and professional. We had heavy furniture that needed to disassemble and reassemble for a 4 bedroom house. His team arrived on time and got to work. They didn't require any instructions and got everything safely out of our old house into the new house. I would definitely hire this crew next time we move. read more

Fantastic experiencing using Flash Movers! The team was extremely punctual, friendly and impressively quick. They were careful in dissembling and re-assembling our large furniture items, ensuring nothing was broken or damaged. They continued to check in to ensure things were being relocated to the correct rooms and placed in the right spot. Would highly recommend Flash Movers and will certainly use again for our next move. read more

BOOK THESE MOVERS!! No need to look any further. They are INCREDIBLE. Manuel was extremely responsive, sent me an easy hassle free quote and they showed up EARLY on my moving day (30 minutes before start time), had a 3 man team and took care of everything professionally, carefully, and in such a short time! They dissembled furniture and reassembled so quickly, by the time I was back from a coffee run, everything was already brought up the stairs to my new place on the third floor. AND the best part? They were so friendly and had the best price compared to several other movers I contacted. Seriously, BOOK THEM! read more

Very competitive pricing, prompt arrival, worked hard and crew was amazing. Thank you Manuel and team!! Would recommend to anyone moving.

the service i received from this company yesterday (10/1/23) was INCREDIBLE. i was blown away. i severely underestimated how many boxes and furniture we had to move on the quote request form (completely my fault) so when they came to take inventory (before they touched an item) they told me they would need to up the price a bit which was completely understandable - i had planned for this. i believe if i would have accurately estimated all of my belongings when submitting my request they would have sent more men but the 3 men who moved us (down 32 stairs with no elevator) knocked it out of the park. they were very attentive to detail, wrapped all furniture, art, mirrors meticulously and worked SO fast. whenever there was an item of ours that was cracked or appeared broken they checked with us before wrapping or moving it so there was never any question about items breaking during the move (nothing did by the way). their pricing was an absolute bargain in my opinion. this was my first time using movers and i will use this company any time i move in the future and will recommend them to everyone i know. they made the most stressful anxiety-inducing day feel like a dream. i could not recommend them enough! read more
