    Robert, Max, and Dewayne were a great crew. They arrived on time, and they hustled. We mostly used…read morethem for furniture and a few smaller items, and the cold didn't deter them. Minneapolis moving services are some of the most expensive anywhere I've experienced. I hope that simply means that MN companies pay their labor well. We paid $1365 + $180 tip (optional, but come on) for a 3-man crew at $260/hr (2-hour minimum), and we obviously also provided snacks and drinks (they declined breakfast). For comparison, in San Francisco it was $250/hr for 5 men. The rate was with both the weekday discount and winter pricing. Weekend would have been $285/hr for 3 men, and $345 for 4 men. There was no trip fee. Robert, in particular was incredible; he moved a 6 drawer dresser down a tight stairwell alone. They needed to remove the front door at one point, but did so without issue. They also were happy to use our own furniture pads and plastic wrap (leftover from a cross-country move). At one point, they had to back the huge truck through the alley on icy ground, and had no problems. Also, it was easy to provide them inventory by email, and easy to reach them by phone. Lots of moving companies were annoying to contact, which is partly why we chose this one. One a few minor issues: one piece of furniture was shedding pieces of wood. I think they were reinforcements put on by previous owners. I didn't even know they were there, and it doesn't seem to have affected the furniture. They also forgot a couple of items in the yard, including a big smoker we had to move on our own. It's partly my fault, I told them we were good to go. Also, we were made to sign a lot of paperwork, and at various points it was for things like "you confirm that nothing is broken and everything has arrived" and, like, it's weeks later and I'm still unpacking, there is no way I would have known for sure. It's fine, because so far we have had no issues, but if someone did have issues it might feel like being strong-armed via contract. The guys in the truck were just doing their jobs, so it's the process that is problematic more than anything. We would use these guys again!

    We used Move Crew almost nine years ago and loved them for our move then and loved them for our…read moremost recent move. They are organized, efficient, and bring an excellent variety of supplies. They work with you as you transfer one home to another or in our case storage. Our crew Kai, Zong and Bob were awesome! I highly recommend this company.

    Hello! I am so…read morevery happy with everything that Gentle Transitions did to help me in my move to my new Co-op living from start to finish. The process was very efficient and smooth. They saved me when I needed the most help. They were at my townhome at 8:30 am and the entire process was completed by about 2:30 pm. They did all the packing and unpacking and preferred that I not do anything and they would handle everything themselves. Thank you Gentle Transitions for everything you did to move me into my new home!! Karen T.

Not hearing back from her or the company for weeks I called and the moving manager told me she had lost all our info and needed to redo everything. I asked for a different move manager and was told they didn't want to do that. So we continued with this inept person. They had a big crew of people who packed our things. The moving company arrived and it was not the company that we picked.. They were not good. We had a lot of damage to our furniture. I did get some minor reimbursement but not happy with the entire process. I actually had to call for our bill. I did talk with one of the office managers about this experience and was told our move manager was being encouraged to retire. I am writing this review up on receiving a postcard/mailer from them today. It appears our move manager is still in their employ.

    This was a terrible experience. they sent a guy out to do a work through to review the things I…read moreneeded moved and give me a quote. After being showed the materials to be moved, he didn't make any notes about the items to be moved, yet he gave me a quote. and I agreed on the price. When I talked with the owner Nick about the method of payment, he absolutely refused to accept a cashier's check. He was concerned about the check bouncing. I had to explain to him how cashier's checks worked. On the day of the move, they showed up in a Uhaul, one guy was late, and two of the 3 guys showed up smelling of alcohol. I walked them through the items that we had agreed that were to be moved. They told me that they were on a two hour schedule and some of my things would not be moved. Explained that I was simply paying to have my things moved, I didn't have control over how smart they worked. They called their owner Nick who was extremely unprofessional, apparently the young man who gave me the quote had mistakenly failed to list many of my items. (remember he didn't write anything down during the walk through and had just made up an incomplete list. Even though he had not been present during the walk through, and have not seen for himself what the items to be moved, he swore his employee had not made a mistake,. I tried to reason with him,but he would not relent. I was only going to get 2 hours of work regardless of how fast his crew worked. Well, what kind of work do you think you might get from workers who are inebriated? These guys worked like zombies for two hours and of course didn't get the job completely done, and I was left with a house full of furniture. Nick showed up to view the proceedings, and only made matters worse. Zero people skills. Unwilling to take responsibility for his mistakes. No concern for customer satisfaction. All he was concerned about was getting his money. Because I needed to move right away, I was forced to hire them again to come back the the next day to complete the job. Two guys showed up. One of them screamed like a little girl when he saw a spider in the basement. He immediately got on the phone to ask Nick to cancel the job. Nick wanted the money, so he told the guy over the phone to go back to work. I had to get a broom to scare away the spider (which by the way, I never saw) before he would go back to work. Later, he called Nick again because he thought he saw a mouse turd on the coffee table. I had to use my finger to show him it was just ash. This would have been funny if it wasn't happening to me. Save yourself from this comedy-drama train wreck. Find a more reputable company.

Alec worked with me, very patient and understanding, with what my family is going through. the drivers were very fun to work with. quick team work, got the job done in half the time than we expected. you can check around and i know you will not get a better price, anywhere. we will tell all our friends and family about Blue Dolly Movers we all thank you Debi and Katie's family

They asked for lunch and drinks from us, which is typically something I would provide, but given the situation with the service, it came across as rude. They called their manager/owner, and after a conversation, they had determined the move took them longer, and we had more items than what was in the quote. Alec, wanted to charge an extra $1,000. They were trying to get my mother-in-law to sign for it while I was at our old house. I called Alec, and after a long conversation and having to be extremely firm, and threatening to write a negative review, he agreed on the original price. This was almost a year ago and I still get frustrated thinking about it. We have damaged furniture and walls, and they made our moving experience even more stressful. I would not recommend Alec and Blue Dolly at all.
