They moved me from NJ to FL. Professional and very nice. Everyone was friendly and took the ultimate care of all my belongs. They were super flexible with scheduling. I have used Montvale Movers in the past as well and they always are top notch, personable and treated my belongs as if they were moving their own. I can recommend this moving company 1000%. read more

I used Montvale Moving services. We needed extensive moving and we needed to store furniture. Marty is the owner. Make sure you confirm that you are hiring Marty's company. I was beyond happy and satisfied with their services. Everything was done flawlessly. They were honest polite and very organized and professional. I don't write many reviews but I did for this company. I would use them again and recommend them to family and friends without hesitation or reservations. Ray R read more

Stay away from Marty and this company. If you want the job done right with accountability, transparency and communication, go with different company. Our job was simple: move out our furniture into our home garage, basement and bathrooms for us to do the flooring of our home. Marty jumped on the assessment, came quickly and estimated the cost of 3 hrs. After that, he was out of reach. I left him multiple messages about the contract for example to clarify some things and he never called me back. His appointment manager did everything possible to reach him and then she would give me a call back with information. It was just a weird red flag about this company. We didn't pay anything yet but I can't even confirm how it works. He doesn't call at all. Why? No idea. So it happened and we had some damage accidentally during the move out. Minor but kept us vigilant and uneasy about dealing with Marty. Again, I left multiple messages to get clarity on how damages are handled and nothing. The assistant refused to engage in the subject telling me that she doesn't handle contract details. Ok..... they just replaced the rolling leg on the cabinet drawers they broke to appease and it didn't even fit... Fast forward to move (back) in. Massive water damage due to Marty's guys storing things improperly in the tub and not making sure the faucet is securely off. It turned out, it was dripping for a whole week and everything in the tub was soaking wet (name brand purses in luggages, clothing, towels, comforters, pillows...) and moldy. The guys admitted they shouldn't have used the tub at all for storage. It was a bad idea. In all of this, I asked Marty to call me back and I sent him pictures of all the new found damage as we unboxed everything fully (3 days after the move in) and he wouldn't call back. Brushes the whole thing off as if it is not their fault. They reimbursed only a fraction of the cost and ignore every request to contact us. It's very frustrating. Massive losses that can easily add up to more $1500 not to mention the headache of dealing with all the wet contents of the luggage and pillows with moldy smell. I can't unrecommend Marty enough. Please stay away and get a better communicating guy who cares about his client and communicates better. read more

I wish I could review them for their services but I didn't receive any. I contacted them because two family members recommended them for recent services. They set up an appointment to first review the content that needed moving, but then Fritz never showed up. I called and left a message and Fritz called me back hours later with excuses but essentially took the blame. We rescheduled for today, but Fritz never showed up or even called. We left another message and they haven't called us back. Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me. I will never use them, and never recommend them to anyone. Zero stars for zero effort and zero customer service (if I could). read more

More than great fast honest reliable what more can I say I have used them 4x always the same just the best moving company

Excellent moving company. Montvale Moving is different from the big names which "underbid" and then jacked up the price, which quoted before doing a bait and switch to enormous 18-wheelers, They are straight and accommodating. We needed a dedicated truck, which needed to climb our steep old driveway for a long-distance move. They accommodated us. They came one day before loading and packed up our high-end furniture the proper way (packed and boxed).. Very grateful for their excellent and reasonable service. From Marty to Ray to all members of the team, thanks. I highly recommend their services read more

I just completed a move with TJ, Harry, and Shane from Montvale Moving about an hour ago, and I was so impressed, I promised them I would waste no time writing them up a 5-star review. So here we go.... I hired Montvale Moving to move furniture from my mom's house in New Jersey to my condo in Maryland. My sister handled the move on the Jersey side, and while these three gentlemen were still at the Jersey house, she called to tell me how amazing they were. They wrapped everything securely to ensure nothing would be damaged. They were very careful not to bang into any walls or doorways, and very careful loading everything onto the truck. And she was especially impressed with how polite and friendly they were. I received them on the Maryland side, and I was likewise really impressed. One of the pieces they moved was a large dining room breakfront, and there were two points between the truck and the dining room where the positioning got a bit tricky. I really liked how they just stopped to assess the situation and agree on the right plan rather than "winging it" and just seeing if it would make it through. They definitely know what they're doing. I selected Montvale Moving after requesting quotes from three New Jersey moving companies - all with top ratings - and Montvale Moving having quoted me the best price. When the moved was finished and TJ went over the itemized bill with me including gas and tolls, the final price actually came in lower than the quoted price! That was the icing on the cake! TJ, Harry, and Shane were absolutely great! And the price was eminently reasonable. I cannot imagine having had a better moving experience. Without a doubt 5 stars!!! read more

A+++ for sure!! I can't say enough about how great they were! I was very nervous about moving and asked around for a recommendation. A customer of mine said they used Montvale Moving twice. I figured they have to be half way decent since she went back a second time. Well let me tell you how wonderful they were! I couldn't have asked for a more seamless operation. First of all they were well prepared with everything they needed for a very large move. They provided two 35 foot trucks and about ten men in total. They moved me on a holiday weekend. The packing was incredible and the staff was very careful, friendly and attentive with my delicate belongings. They moved three workshops, a home and three sheds. There were a lot of delicate items, heavy items, lots of glass and antiques and I was shocked to see how well they packed the remaining bunch of the items that I couldn't get to. Once everything arrived at the new home I didn't see a scratch or have one thing broken. I don't even have one complaint at all. I was extremely happy with everything! Actually I was amazed at how well organized and careful they were with all my belongings. I would only use Montvale Moving in the future. Even though I hope I"m in my forever home. I could not have asked for a better result. Thank you to all who helped make my move a great experience. Highly, Highly Recommended!! Truly extremely happy and amazed!! read more

We have moved 3 times in 8 years and the past 3 movers were dishonest, did damage to our home and furniture, and back charged us terribly at the end. This being said we we apprehensive on all movers. My neighbor, a realtor, mentioned Montvale movers so we met with Fritz who gave a decent price and saying it would/could be an additional one or two hours which would of been equivalent to our other bids. We were called 30 minutes prior to the arrival and four very nice guys came and methodically dismantled and packed what was necessary. By noon we were moving on to our new home and without taking any breaks they began unpacking the truck and putting everything in the proper place. No breakage , furniture damage or complaining by anyone, just a clean move. The guys were just where our estimator said and we gladly paid for just a little additional time which we felt was fair. I would highly recommend them. read more

We planned to make a move from Bergen County, NJ last August, 2021. I contacted Montvale Movers in April of 2021 and asked for an estimate. At that time, I made Marty (the owner) aware that there would be 2 stops involved. The first stop would be at a storage unit in PA, and the second stop would be at our daughter's home in PA where we were going to live for that upcoming year. Marty came and personally gave us an estimate. He walked around the house, noted everything we were taking, took copious notes, and he marked down everything that needed to be disassembled or taken down. He then sent me an estimate a few days later. That estimate was for $5,772. The estimate included 2 trucks (we were moving a whole house of things) and 6 men, as well as the charge for packing up everything, dismantling things, taking things down, packing and placing things in the storage unit and bringing the remaining things to our daughter's home. Marty was aware of every detail of the move. In August, the men came and packed everything. (We have yet to move to our final home which is being built, so we don't know how well everything was packed. I will update this review at a later date.) It took an entire day to do the packing. The next day they drove to the storage unit in PA and we met them there. They moved things into the storage unit and brought things to our daughter's house as planned. We tipped the guys about $1000 between all of them. A few days later we got the final bill...... The price had jumped $3000! When I questioned Ray (who was the lead guy in the move) and then Marty, they gave me some sort of double talk about how it took longer than expected (not my fault), and they needed more supplies (also not my fault). Clearly he gave me a low-ball estimate to get the job, and then jacked up the price when I had no further recourse other than to pay it. Both of them continued to say "We will take care of you when we move you to NC into your new home". OK, well, I had no choice but to accept this, although I thought it was a real sleazy practice. When I asked how much the move to NC would be, Marty told me about $10,000. We had intended to use Montvale Movers for that move as well. Fast forward to a month ago, and now my new home is ready and we are ready to go to NC. I called Marty. How much will it cost? Now he says "$15,000". So THAT is how they are going to "take care of me"? I have since gotten 3 other estimates: all were under $11,000 with a guarantee (once the truck is weighed) of an increase of no more than $1000. We chose Montvale Movers because of the great reviews. But now we say, beware of those reviews and using these guys. Ours was NOT a good experience. Someone else wrote a review about price gouging. Yes indeed. We were victims of that as well. Rest assured, we are not going to use them for our move heading south. read more

Loved these guys!! This was my first time hiring professional movers. I moved a 2 bedroom condo to a house and was nervous after trying to find a company with integrity. The gentleman that came to give me an estimate was sweet and honest. All the places I found online wanted me to list all my stuff to get an estimate. I didn't want to do that. When I called montvale movers they said they would send someone out. That gave me a great feeling. They were a recommendation from a friend. He said if it look less time it would be less money. We busted our butts to be prepared for them saved some hours and saved some money just like he said! The actual movers didn't dilly dally either. They worked hard with positive attitudes. ALL OF THEM! Great job and thank you guys!! read more

Marty and his crew were excellent! No problems at all. They were all very professional and well mannered. His estimate and time from beginning to end was right on! Our move was a real difficult one on a hilltop in Upper Saddle River with lots of stairs. His men took one short 5 min. break for water. I was amazed they never stopped working in such conditions. It was in July, the temperature was 97 and humid...typical heatwave for that time of year. Thank you Marty for your honesty and not trying to up sell us. read more

I called Montvale Moving Services to move my Father to a new apartment. Ray and Harry were right on time and were very professional. Very nice people as well, friendly and personable. This is a family business and it shows as they care about what they do treating my furniture as their own. I recommend their services. read more

Used Montvale Moving for our move from Bergen County to Sussex County. They were extremely efficient and thorough. All our things were packed very well and there was no breakage. All workers were friendly and professional. Overall great group to deal with. Worked with us as we had to move our date several times. Even had extra workers on the second day of packing and on the move day which brought us under the quoted price. We highly recommend them. read more

I used Montvale Moving for my recent move. I was moving locally about 20 miles from the two. As normal (and recommended) I did not research to find the best price for a local mover. After countless phone calls and a LONG excel spreadsheet. Montvale Moving had an average rate and came highly recommended as a safe and good moving company from some of my network. While I wanted to get a good price for the move, I also wanted to use a company that was trusted and safe, after all they were moving my life from one location to another. While the final rate was higher than I was expected to pay, I am more than thrilled with the services I received! The movers were great and really professional. After moving myself into my apartment, I was shocked how fast they were able to take my heavy wardrobe (that took my dad and brother about a week to figure out and execute) out of my apartment. They were fast, nice, and I felt completely safe with the movers as a young woman alone and with them responsible for my belongings. I would highly recommend them! Even better, the owner Marty followed up with a phone call to ensure everything went smoothly! read more

From the second this crew of guys showed up at my house on a rainy, windy day, they were all a pleasure to work with!! Great attitudes, willingness and no complaining about the horrible weather they had to move us in!! 3 Bedroom home with full attic, garage and basement + 5 guys, 10 hours, 1 truck = success! They even had to take one of my dressers out of a second story window in the wind and rain and not one complaint about it! Awesome company, awesome movers! I would recommend them any day! read more

Montvale Moving - Movers Near Me

We used Montvale Moving for my daughter who just moved to Manhattan. We were overwhelmingly satisfied with their service, pricing and courtesy. They were extremely helpful throughout the entire process especially given the fact that this was her first time moving away from home. Everything went so smoothly. Highly recommend!! read more

Let me just say I never thought an operation like this would be handled smoothly. My husband and I relocated from Rockland County, NY to Greenville, SC. Our relocation was distinct because we were relocating a home and a business. Marty and his crew were EXCEPTIONAL!!! They showed up on time and ready to work. They afforded our possessions the highest level of care. NOTHING was lost or damaged. They were thorough, pleasant and on time! They accomplished a challenging feat in a well thought out manner and with precision to detail. They carefully and meticulously packaged stray items, ensuring protection throughout the move. Marty and his partner were recommended by friends of ours that used them for a similar relocation with rave reviews. They definitely lived up to their reputation with exceptional service and attention to every detail. Reasonably priced and worth every penny. I am beyond impressed and I cannot recommend these folks any more. Please do not hesistate to go with Montvale Moving. The end price was a little more than the original quote, but 100% worth it and then some! Marisol Rovinsky, RN Greenville, SC read more

I would like to first state that I believe the owner Marty is an honest, loyal and trustworthy person. I have no issues with him personally, but rather with the employees who did not accept accountability for damaging many of my items during a move into storage and out to our home. We have engaged Montvale Movers for several moves. We had no issues previously. These last two moves in July 2019 and November 2019 were done unprofessionally, with third string staff and resulted in cost overages, damaged items, rude unprofessional behaviors and delays. Note: we did receive the internet advertised 10% off our last move. The list of broken Items included: a antique oil painting that was punctured through the wrapping, an Ethan Allan Dresser sustained a 6 inch hold in the back, a Bombay Plant stain leg broken off, two Door Frames were cracked off, and endurable hairpin legs broken off, a premium Gym Mat weighing over 100lbs was not properly packed and actually broke from its own weight, box of vintage china cracked from poor packing, my baby's crib mattress was punctured and torn, book shelf was not packed properly and corner broke. There are many more examples see photos below. Marty in exchange for the significant damages agreed to have his men pick up a mahagony china closet (worth 20K weighing about 300 lbs) for me on their return trip from the south. I thought this was reasonable and fair. As I stated above Marty is a good guy. Unfortunately, his men did not inspect the item (which was pristine as both my husband and I drove to inspect personally), did not pack it appropriately with cardboard braces, and did not secure it in the truck. When they arrived they unpacked it severely damaged. I asked them to at least give me the piece of wood that was missing and they claimed it was not in the truck or blanket. The lack of accountability and honesty is disgraceful. Then outright denial that they broke the 20K breakfront. Marty ceased to acknowledge my texts, emails and phone calls to resolve the matter through insurance. I provided the receipts to demonstrate that the piece was compromised and the best that could be done was to fill crack with wood putty. I also provided him documentation from the former owner of the piece, photographic evidence timestamped and appraisal from the manufacturer themselves who I hired to help me. Weeks have passed and my request for restitution through insurance was ignored. I want others to be aware of the dangers of hiring a moving company. NOTE: its not the company but rather the men who are doing your move that you have to be concerned about. read more

Helped us move out from our old house to storage and then from storage to the New house. The team of movers are amazing, every one know what to do and to do it right. All in all we moved with no damage to any of our furniture and belongings. I Highly recommend them. read more

Despite a last minute miscommunication the night before the scheduled move, everything went swimmingly on the day. These guys are professional, thorough and punctual. There were two pickups from two separate locations so this review is based on their feedback as well (ie the folks from whom I received the furniture). Would recommend in a heartbeat. read more

Never had a more seamless experience with a moving company. The crew absolutely out-did themselves and they worked so well together. It was great to have their high energy and positive attitude on a stressful day. They even went the extra mile to help put some of our furniture together with screws they had laying around and hung up all of our clothes in our closets. They were super communicative in making sure they placed the furniture exactly where we wanted it go. They brought an extra guy they day of which helped save us money on our original quote as well. 100% recommend their services to anyone looking for a reliable, quick, affordable, (and funny) moving company! read more

Montvale Moving came highly recommended by friends. I got a couple quotes but wanted to go with someone I knew had a good reputation - and their pricing was right in line with the average. Marty and his team are experienced, professional and know how to get the job done. The time he estimated was spot on, nearly to the minute. My move involved 2 stops, a storage unit and the place we were temporarily staying and then into a house. Everything went smoothly and arrived perfectly, which took some of the stress out of moving day. I would definitely use them again and highly recommend! read more

Just moved with this crew today. They were incredible. Each mover was so incredibly kind, introduced themselves to me directly, were quick, efficient and so accommodating. In our new home I was only 70% sure where I wanted things and they kept offering to move things around for me if I was unsure if where I wanted it, even after they had already set it in one location. They even tightened the legs on and old chair of mine! Can not recommend these guys enough. Kind, professional and competitively priced. If you are considering them, book them, you won't regret it. read more

If there was such as a thing as a "perfect move", mine would be it! The crew was willing to go the extra yard to make the entire process smooth. I mean, they even asked after they placed the furniture if I was happy with it! They cared enough to put felt pads under all the furniture legs so there would be no scratches. Suggestions were even made on how to position furniture if they thought a better option available. Hard working, polite, thorough!!!!! A job well done!!!! read more

These guys are fantastic!! My fiance and I moved out of our 2 bedroom Condo and in to our 4 bedroom home, early February 2020. Due to work commitments, I was not around on moving day. These guys were incredible. They took care of disassembly and reassembly (as previously discussed), they moved boxes, items, to designated rooms so my fiance and family members didn't have to. They wrapped every delicate item, nothing broke, and it was just an all around stand-up crew. I don't have enough good things to say and plan on recommending them every.single.time. someone asks "hey, do you know a good moving company". Put your trust in Montvale Moving, you'll be happy you did. read more

Five stars aren't enough to rate this company. Montvale Movers deserve 20 stars! Marty and his fantastic crew are hard working, dependable, positive, careful, smart, professional, creative, and tireless. They worked 12 hours straight. We moved out of our big Victorian House where we had lived 24 years...it was a mammoth move and we never could have managed without Marty! They are first rate! Thank you Montvale Movers!!! read more

I can not say enough about Marty and Montvale Movers. Their staff is fantastic I've never met any Packers that could do a better job then Donnie and Ray and their team. We have used them numerous times and made referrals to our friends because we know they give excellent service at reasonable prices. They have delivered furniture from New Jersey to South Carolina without any damage and will do so again in a month or so. We have the utmost trust and praise for Montvale Movers and Marty specifically, he's the best and knows how to pick the best employees. Thank you Montvale Movers Janice and Tim read more

On time, on budget, worked fast, nothing broken....can't do much better than that! HIGHLY recommend

First off the guys who did the actual moving deserve 5 stars as for the rest of my experience that's a 1. I'll start with the guy who does their estimates. He showed up more than an hr late because he was off doing his own side job which I found to be very unprofessional. So he gave my estimate on my small move which consisted of a few pieces of furniture and very very few small items and seemed pretty easy. So he said 3 guys and 3 hrs and gave my price without mentioning that the price can easily go up and that I pay for travel time as well which for the record my move was very local with the residences only about 7 miles apart. Well 4 guys showed and they were very good and fast again no complaint with the guys. When they were done I already had my check filled out only to be told it was now get this $175 more than the estimate. Are you kidding? How can someone be more off then that, was this that guys first estimate ever? Needless to say I flipped and after some discussion one of the workers had with the office they were nice enough to knock off $75 and yes that was sarcasm as I still paid $100 more then my estimate. I had a guy from Spring Valley give me a set price which was $50 less then these guys but figured I'd use them because they're Montvale and my move was to Montvale you know support local business. That mistake cost me $150 and I'm still furious wouldn't you be? read more
