We personally feel that Lamanna was worth even more than we paid (Important to note that we've moved twice from NYC in the past 5 years, and city prices are very different.) I really thought I'd written this review already, but you know how crazy it can be when you move. I've got specifics about the guys on the crew, but I don't have the notes right now and can't remember, it's just too hectic still. Just know that Lamanna was prompt, careful, friendly, and super helpful. They are *serious* about being a good crew, and we were lucky to be able to book them. Steve was even good enough to help keep me from having a meltdown about a month before our move! I hope to update this later after we've actually settled in better, but honestly, things just keep piling up and I don't know when I'll get to it.

Lamana's came recommended to us by friends who moved about 6 months ago, and we are so happy we…read morewent with their recommendation. Service was efficient but still very careful to protect our belongings and the safety pf the 5 man crew. Everyone was very professional and our move went off without a hitch. Lamana's knows what they are doing. We packed our personal items, so the crew only had to move the furniture & boxes. They just needed us to direct them as to placement in our new house. In all, the entire process took about 5 hours. We should note my husband is immune compromised and all staff took precautions when it came to pandemic precautions. We are grateful for their professionalism and concern, in this regard. There was a GREAT article about Lamana's in the Albany Times Union on 9/2/20, this is a multigenerational family run business and they deserve the high praise and recognition. I've already passed them on to another friend who will be moving in the near future and to our realtor. I do recommend calling & booking as soon as you have a closing date. We were able to get them within a few days of our closing, but with the good press and so many happy customers, I'd say they're only going to get busier. Great job. Great local business. Can't say enough great things about them.

Violence against women isn't a funny or clever way to advertise junk removal. Turning the image of a woman being physically disposed of like garbage into a punchline is disturbing and incredibly poor judgment. There are countless ways to make a memorable, funny advertisement without making light of violence toward women. This billboard alone ensures I would never use or recommend this company. This company is also full of assholes when you call about it. They aggressively think their stupid decision is funny. Disgusting pigs

If you need help with a local move, or you need somebody to load or unload for a long distance…read moremove, you can't do better than Bill and Jamie. These guys were incredibly friendly, cheerful and efficient and went way beyond the call of duty--they were unloading a container box at a flat rate, yet they did extra things that were definitely not within the job description, like moving things into two different buildings and then re-moving some items when we discovered we made a mistake. Bill and Jamie. Be sure to ask for them by name. I have to deduct a star for Clark's front office operation, however. They were the destination warehouse for my Door-to-Door move and several calls to them were not returned. The expeditor told me this is unusual, so hopefully a temporary problem.

I would agree with one of the reviewers below: don't trust them with your valuables and moving. I…read morerecently had a very long distance move. Initially, I really liked the sales team that came and did the estimate. However, they sent a few very unprofessional members to move our apartment and they did not respect our stuff at all. Throwing boxes around, fooling around with our stuff, not taking care for valuable items. We ended up with many damaged items. Also, in agreement with the commenter below, it's very much a bait and switch. As with many movers, they charm you with the initial prices and personality, but they don't represent how the process will go well at all. I was told many times how much space my stuff would take up and then they spread all my stuff out to take up more space and charge me more. My entire apartment fit in 1/2 a small truck (there was another load in there already) and when it arrived at my destination they spread it out into a whole truck worth of space and the last crate has a couple boxes on the floor. No support from their parent company Mayflower either. It sounds like maybe a small move worked for people, but don't trust them with big moves. Their equipment was also old and they don't offer any "extras" included in the deal like boxes, packing supplies, etc. There are so many movers in the area that friends had better luck with, go somewhere else.

We used Tom's services twice in a 3 week span…read more On our first time, we asked Tom & his crew to be at our new home at 4 PM. They showed up at 3:45 and unloaded an entire cargo van worth of stuff in just about 2 hours. Tom and his crew all wore masks and saved us the strain of lugging furniture up 3 flights of stairs. The entire crew was polite and followed direction well when I asked that certain boxes be placed in specific rooms. The second time we used Tom's service was just as great. We fell in love with some furniture at Home Goods in Latham but their delivery services were astronomically overpriced. Tom quoted us a much better number. He picked up our pieces from Home Goods the same day and delivered them to our apartment the next morning. Everything was in excellent condition. Tom kept me updated as to the fact that he had picked up our stuff and as to his ETA to our home. We paid Tom via venmo and I accidentally overpaid Tom by 100 dollars. I texted Tom immediately and let him know about my error. He assured me it would be taken care of, and a partial refund was given to me later that morning. I'm beyond impressed with Tom's punctuality and professionalism. I would absolutely recommend his services to anyone who needed a dependable set of movers in the capital region.

The movers also kept complaining about heavy items, which made the whole process feel uncomfortable and unprofessional. They also caused damage and then tried to hide. They broke a leg off my bed, said nothing, and left the broken leg on the floor under the bed as if I wouldn't notice. They also dropped a fragile box down the stairs and later insisted they "checked everything" and nothing was broken, which was simply untrue. Their solution to fixing the bed was even more unacceptable. They sent someone out to put epoxy on a part that had previously been soldered, which didn't work at all. Now I'm left with a damaged bed, a box of shards of glass that was previously worth hundreds and a terrible overall experience.
