    I was lucky to get Bookstore Movers for my move as their highly booked schedule shows their strong…read morereputation! Sometimes moves do not go as smoothly as hoped. It was Bookstore Movers' excellent customer service that earns them 5 stars. The 3 movers showed up early and worked very quickly and efficiently. In that haste, some items were damaged and I offered that feedback in the follow-up survey. I quickly received a call from the company offering to discount my move and send Walter Davies, a furniture repair person, out to make furniture repairs. That concern for customers and making things right earns Bookstore Movers 5-star service. Walter Davies was excellent and thorough in repairing my furniture. If you have a move coming up, call Bookstore Movers. Lisa C.

I worked with a different moving company 2 years ago that left me scarred for life with how rude and unprofessional they were. I ended up having to finish the job myself (moving my giant couch up four flights of stairs), so when I knew I was moving again, I did my due diligence and sought out a few quotes. Another company quoted me almost $800 and required a 3 hour minimum for the job!! $800 seemed steep and I knew the job wouldn't take that long... 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!

    Paris & the Alston Moving crew are great & a joy to work with!…read more After a different moving company damaged our possessions in a cross-country move, we hired Alston Moving to help document the damage for insurance & sort out the mess - a BIG job. We've been working with this crew once or twice a week for months & are SO grateful for their help. Paris is the foreman. He insists each item be wrapped & packed correctly. He's kind & fair to his crew, especially when training younger crew. Quotes for hourly work are very fair. The crew works until the job is done - even when it's freezing cold or blistering hot. Paris & his crew are also extremely honest. One found a bank envelope (with a couple hundred dollars in it) on the garage floor. At the time, I was surrounded by broken furniture & smashed boxes in a rain storm. It would have been easy for that crew member to pocket the cash without anyone noticing. Instead, he handed it in to Paris, who gave it to me. These are good people! If you need some handyman work done, this crew is up for it. Don't expect union-trained specialty construction guys! But they'll happily install that door handle or retractable dog gate. One of their crew usually has the tools needed (nail gun, power saw, etc.) for small construction fixes. Just let Paris know what you need done in advance. Highly recommended!!

They covered all valuable furniture and carefully loaded and unloaded. I thought it was amazing that when we finished my move an hour early, they offered to put my furniture together. A great perk I didn't know about when I booked was that they offer $100 for all referrals. In these times of crazy inflation, the referral bonus on top of their great affordable prices made this move affordable, quick, and worry free! Thanks again!

They were flexible with us as we had to reschedule due to weather, and had several complicated moves that were handled very well. As with any move, we took care ourselves to wrap things, communicate our needs and expectations, but I would do that with any mover. Ask questions, clarify and explain what you want. All furniture was wrapped carefully with moving blankets and secured and all breakables were treated with care. I've never seen a team of people work so hard!

It wasn't intentional, but the amount of damage we saw was much more than what I would have been okay with. The furniture and location was difficult however given that everything made it to where they needed to be, I'm sure it could have been done much more carefully. That made this pretty mid tier service. So 3 stars. And that's what we initially put in our review. But then after putting in our claim on damages with ample proof of damages, and also our honest review, my wife received a call from one of the movers asking us to take down the poor review because they would get in trouble with the owners. Now I'm wondering goes on behind the scenes because the good reviews seems much more shady now. How many other reviews got asked to be taken down? They got the move done and did it relatively quick given the difficulty. The price was rather high given the quality of work completed. And given how quick they were to request us to take a poor review down to me deserves an even poorer review. Honestly, if they had taken accountability right away to the damages I would have felt better about a simple 3 star review. I can't in good conscience recommend Zip Moving and Storage.

    I moved into my new place yesterday and had the pleasure of meeting Carlos and Jonathan. They were…read moreabsolutely amazing, from the time we met to the time they left they handled me and my items with care and professionalism. They kept me informed throughout the process and were extremely trustworthy and personable, especially when I had to run out of the house to handle something leaving them alone and when I ended up having more items than originally planned for the move. I am extremely happy with the results and will definitely be using and recommending them to friends and family in the future. Thank you Carlos and Jonathan for your help! Overall, my move was a little over $800 (took about 5 hours with 2 movers for a local move from a 3-story townhome to a 2-story condo ) and I gave a generous tip considering the amount of work they did. Services: Furniture disassembly and reassembly, small furniture moving, wrapping pictures, mirrors and frames, moving storage boxes.

    As I read all of the overwhelmingly positive reviews, I have to wonder how I could have had the…read moreexperience I had. Could I have avoided the stressful outcome I endured by just asking them upfront if they would move all of my boxes? If they would stay on the job until it was finished? It may sound silly to ask this of a moving company, but read on. I'll start by saying that the three men who handled my move were mostly professional and careful for the eleven or so hours that they worked. Also, I significantly underestimated the number of boxes I had to move. Serena was very helpful when I initially contacted the company. I provided an inventory of my belongings and some photographs and she worked out a quote that was agreeable. On moving day, her team showed up on time. They were all personable and receptive to my requests. By early afternoon, the moving van was filled up ... but there were still about a hundred boxes in the old house. Suppose the new house didn't have enough room for everything? I asked if they could help me take the remaining items to a storage facility. They pointed out that by the time the van was unloaded, regular offices hours at those facilities would be over. The new house was about a 20 minute drive from the old house. I left in my car and the movers left in their van at around the same time. I arrived at the new house expecting them to be right behind me. For quite a while, they didn't show. I tried calling them but they didn't answer. After about 45 minutes, they arrived. They took a break for lunch. That's fine. Why didn't they just tell me? I labelled each of my boxes with the name of the room where I wanted it to go. For the most part the movers put the boxes in the correct rooms. However, the next morning I could not locate my toothbrush, razor, and a number of other items so I had to purchase replacements. They also dented a wall when moving the couch. They compensated for this by deducting a credit from my total bill. Sometime between 7:30 and 8:00 pm, the men had finished unloading the moving van. The boxes were distributed fairly evenly throughout the house and there was still free space remaining in each room. The team leader started preparing my bill, so I thought they were done for the day. I settled the bill and anxiously tried to figure out how I was going to get the rest of my boxes moved. Was I going to call another moving company? Rent a cargo van? Over the next week and a half, I made ten trips, usually after work, from my old house to the new one, squeezing as many boxes as I could into my little sedan. I finally got the last of the boxes moved. Not fun for an old guy with a bad back. The entire episode left me exhausted and wondering if somehow things could have been handled better. A few days after completing the second stage of my move (and nearly two weeks after the first stage) I received a voice mail message from Serena. She wanted to know how things went. She already knew there had been an issue with me having too many boxes for one trip because one of the movers had called the office on the day of the move to advise her. In her message Serena said that the office was currently closed for a holiday but that I could call her on her dedicated line. Unfortunately, she didn't realize that her line had been switched off for the holiday and was not accepting messages. A day or two later we did manage to connect. Serena was careful to ask me just a few general questions so as to avoid suggesting that anything had been handled improperly. At the same time, she wanted to know what had happened and what options, if any, I was given. I eventually told Serena that none of the movers offered to make a second trip to collect the rest of my boxes and I believed that was because they did not work after 8:00 or 9:00 pm. Serena assured me that sometimes they worked past midnight. They keep working until the job was done. Except in my case. She also agreed that the three men could have moved the last set of boxes within 90 to 120 minutes. Serena told me she would discuss the matter with the movers and get back to me. But I never heard back from her. I still don't know what to make of this entire affair. I work in customer service and I use all of my resources to ensure the all of my clients' needs are fulfilled. That's what they depend on my for. Of course, if I knew there was an option of making one more relatively short trip to complete the job, I would have gladly taken it. The company would have gotten more money, the movers would have received larger tips, and I wouldn't have faced the ordeal of moving a hundred boxes a dozen at a time by myself. Ouch!

I booked and paid online ( Jun 17th) and called the company the next day (Jun 18th) to confirm the time and date. They assured me everything was good to go. That was the last I heard from them until the morning of the move. Concerned by the lack of communication, I started calling at 6:00 AM. No answer. Called again at 7:00 AM and still nothing. No one returned my calls, no confirmation, no notice of any issues. At 8:00 AM, when the move was supposed to begin, the first mover, Delante, called and arrived. He was the only saving grace of this entire experience; polite, hardworking, and clearly caught in the middle of a mess he didn't create. He told me he had no idea where the second mover was. Shortly after, I finally got a call, not from the second mover, but from the owner, questioning why I had called earlier that morning. Instead of apologizing for the confusion or delay, he told me the second mover was injured and asked for patience and understanding because he's a small business. That excuse doesn't cut it. You're a business. I paid for a service. If you can't deliver it, you need to communicate and make it right, not guilt trip your customer. Even worse, I later found out that when the owner was finally made aware of the second mover's injuries, he reportedly told Delante to walk off the job and cancel on me entirely. Who does that? Leaving someone stranded on moving day, knowing full well that most people book moving services because they don't have support, is inhumane and shows zero professionalism. Delante stayed and did what he could, but one person handling a two-person job made the process slower and much more stressful. I ended up having to pay for additional time, despite the delays being the company's fault. No discount, no refund, not even a sincere apology. An alternate mover eventually showed up at 10:00 AM, two hours after my start time. What could've been done in 3 hours with two people ended up eating my entire day. I had to call in help from my ex-boyfriend, brother, and roommate just to get through it. The owner was dismissive, unapologetic, inconsiderate, and clearly more concerned with defending himself than doing right by a paying customer. I will never use this company again and do not recommend them to anyone. Delante was the only professional involved and the owner should be ashamed of how he runs this operation. If this is what qualifies as a "top-rated" service, I can't imagine what the bottom looks like.
