    Paula B.

    Yeah. I can't recommend them. I used them to move my things to storage then back out. They smashed my 51 inch plasma. Had to throw it out. They said because I didn't get the upgraded insurance, which I was never offered, the best they could offer me was $50.00 refund...for my 51 inch smashed plasma. I spent around 2k on the move with them. When I asked when I would have been offered an upgrade I insurance, she said it was "when I checked out online." All of the business I did with them was over the phone. I was never offered an upgrade in insurance on the phone. Never even knew insurance was involved. They didn't mention it until I told them about my plasma. They also broke a glass lamp...but I let that go. They also charged my credit card twice. Not a big deal..they reversed the charges when i called. But in light of the plasma situation..I'd say proceed with caution.

    The first thing I want to make sure and mention, is that the movers, Juan and Luis were top notch professionals. If I had only worked with them, this would be a 5-star review, easily. They were efficient, careful, and quite honestly, impressive with their handling of all of our valuables. Nothing was so much as scratched, and watching them wrap everything in blankets and tape things up was very reassuring. We had originally been nervous about hiring someone to handle our breakables but we were put at ease as soon as we saw them go to work. My complaint is about Cliff. First off, I called around to a lot of moving companies to gather quotes based on the size of the apartment and our inventory. I sent pictures and lists to everyone and many of the quotes came back at around $1,700. Cliff's was similar at $1,600, and I let him know I'd think about it. Shortly after that call, I received an email that he could do it for $1,400, flat rate, which was a bargain! I quickly (and gratefully) signed off on that offer, and thought, how nice!! Fast forward to our actual move, and the truck that was brought was too small to accommodate all of our things. They brought a 16' truck, and the pictures attached show how much was left behind. The movers, being the professionals they were, did their best to prioritize the big stuff and stuff the truck as full as possible for us. Fortunately, we needed to return the next day anyway for a dr. appt. The original plan had been to clean up the apartment and then let the listing agent take over by Monday. Since so much was left behind, we were going to have to change the plan to move the rest of our things somehow. I got a call from the company that they needed payment for the remaining balance and I asked Cliff if something could be done to help us with the remaining load. Either a discount, since we were expecting everything to be moved, and would now have to rent a truck on our own to move things, or help getting the rest moved, as was originally agreed. He charged us the full amount owed on the move and said the quote should have been higher for a 20' truck based on the pictures and list of items and asked who quoted us... I told him it was him. He said his staff should have followed up, etc. etc. Then he proceeded to admit that he changed the quote from $1,600 and a 20' truck to $1,400 and a 16' truck because he reviewed the pictures and list again and felt it could be done at the second quote. Clearly, he was mistaken, and...that's not my fault? Anyway, it felt like he was trying to blame his team for the admin issue and I wasn't crazy about that, but as long as it's sorted, no big deal I guess. He seemed to want to make it right, and I was very happy that I had called and asked in the first place because I almost hadn't bothered. He told me he'd scramble up a team to come back over same-day and help us with the rest of the items that needed to be moved, and I was ecstatic! I was actually going to offer to pay the difference of what should have been charged for the mix-up in the quote and leave a glowing review for his effort to make things right. The problem happened when the movers arrived back at the property without a truck. They asked, where's your truck? Our boss said you had a truck for us to help you load up. I called Cliff while standing in the parking lot with a confused team of movers and told him I don't have a truck, and I thought he was sending one to make things right? He turned a full 180 in his attitude working with me. We had a good rapport leading up to this point, and I thought we understood each other. He dropped all professionalism and told me he had been led to believe that I had a U-Haul, as if his misunderstanding and lack of clear communication was my fault. I never once said I had a U-Haul, and he should not have "assumed." I corrected him and told him that I had said I would be disappointed if I had to get a U-Haul since I had already paid for a full move. First, he said, "well what did you think this was?" Then that he's not sending his guys all the way back to Williamsburg, and that he was just going to have them come fill up our U-Haul at no cost. I asked, well what would it take for us to get a truck then? I needed a truck, there was no way around that. He said he wasn't going to have them go all the way back to get a truck and then come back, etc. That's a whole new move. Then he said he had hoped "to be done with this." I was at a loss. My husband and I had to apologetically send Juan and Luis back on a wasted trip, and now we're back to square one, trying to figure out how to move this last load of stuff, which we have already paid to have moved. In Cliff's own words, "wow that's a lot of stuff they left behind." In the end, we paid for the full move, but were left with this. As someone who runs a small business myself, I don't make this review lightly, but I would also never treat a customer this way.

    Can I give 10 STARS!?…read more TLDR; John is an absolute **lifesaver**. He's a true pro who knows furniture mechanics. Call him before you call anyone else. He saved me a fortune! I was convinced I was going to have to drop several grand to replace my 10-year-old Room & Board sofa. He came in, diagnosed the issue immediately, and did a professional foam reinforcement and spring repair that has the couch sitting like it's *brand new* again. Beyond the work, he was a pleasure to deal with. He even took the time to look at a neighbor's custom furniture repair while he was here and gave them solid, friendly advice on how to save their money. No high-pressure sales from this dude. He also specializes in 'sofa surgery' -- disassembling furniture to fit through those notoriously tight DMV hallways and elevators, then rebuilding it perfectly on the other side. It's a specialized skill that is a total game-changer for anyone living in DC. Note: There are a couple of negative reviews on here which you can disregard. My experience was def the exact opposite. He is a total professional and a master of his craft. He's a vet and a nice guy. :)

For reasons I won't get into here, it made me more sense for me to hire a repairman to fix it than to go through the company's return/replacement process. I searched for a furniture pro, connected with John, and he came out the next day. John's been in the business for ~15 years. You can tell he cares a lot about his customers and takes pride in his work. He arrived, fixed the broken frame and cleaned the upholstery for an incredibly reasonable price. THE COUCH LOOKS BETTER AFTER JOHN WORKING ON IT THAN IT DID WHEN IT ARRIVED! I am very grateful that he could help me out today. Separately, I feel it's worth noting that John was very professional. I'm a woman who lives alone and am generally cautious about who comes to my home. John was NOT creepy, and I appreciated that. Ladies, if you are looking to hire someone to do furniture work around the home, you'll be fine calling Flips Furniture Service

My wife and I moved from a 1 bedroom apartment (~930sq ft) to a 1 bedroom condo (~1000sq ft). The distance between the locations was about 30 mins at most (DC to Alexandria). The movers arrived right on time, were very professional, and were very careful with our things. Now the bad: they were exceptionally slow. I have moved twice before with the exact same amount of total items/furniture using different movers and it took them about 1.5hrs total for the entire move. I hired Local Motion for 2 hours and it ended up taking them 8 hours. While there was a small delay of 30 minutes due to no fault of their own, their sluggishness was unacceptable. They took every single item one at a time. They had 2 movers with 2 big wooden furniture 4 wheeled moving dollies, but they only ever used one. I don't know why they couldn't go twice as fast taking 2 boxes at a time. Then to top it all off, we all left my old apartment at 1:28pm, they said they would take a lunch and meet us back at my new place in an hour. No problem. They showed up an hour later and took another ~2.5 hours to unload everything. When it came time to pay they said "oh we actually didn't take a lunch" unfortunately I wasn't there when we paid them, but they absolutely took an hour lunch and took advantage of my wife when she paid. I would not recommend using them as they are exceptionally slow, and will do everything they can to make sure your reasonable quote is not what you pay

I had started the job myself but got an anchor screw stuck and figured I should have a pro step in so I didn't wreck my new walls. All the supplies were here, placed where they needed to be, holes were measured and marked for custom made rods and drapes. He charges by the hour and moves very, very slow. He didn't have his own step ladder or anchor screws. In the first hour, he managed to put in 3 screws in holes that had already been marked. He claimed he "needed to remeasure" and that's why it took so long, but he used the holes that I had already marked. He also said it was too hard to do with custom cut rods. He also said it wasn't his fault because I had an anchor screw stuck in the wall already, which was the whole reason I hired him. This is what pros do: they come prepared, know the required materials and techniques, and advise the customer on the best way to proceed. I knew we needed to cut it off when he asked me how to use an anchor screw. He didn't know if you needed to pre-drill or not for a very basic and common anchor. I cannot imagine a professional handyman not knowing that. He used a level to stare at the pre-marked holes for what seemed like an eternity, just eating up time. 3 screws = $200. Seems like a nice enough man, but handyman may not be the profession for him, and that's giving him the benefit of the doubt that he wasn't just trying to take advantage of someone he assumed was too naive too know how long the job should take. He became very defensive, making excuses when I said we'd need to end the job at one hour. Im sure judging by other less than 5 star reviews here (that I really wish I'd have taken the time to read) he will post a very defensive response here as well. Please just don't take a job you don't have the required expertise to complete, and I don't want to hear defensive excuses when I'm still out $200 for almost no work completed.
