I just finished moving (literally an hour ago) with Moxie Movers and figured I should write a review. This was my third time in four years hiring these guys, and I will continue to use them every time I have to move in the future! They're quick, polite, and professional but also really personable guys! They've moved my awkward 90+ pound bed frame up and down tight staircases multiple times without issues or complaints! I will admit that a few things have had minor dings over the years, but honestly, you have to expect a few of those when you move. They're super helpful and patient when unloading too; letting me change my mind on where stuff goes a few times before I finally decide! My dad has been in the moving industry my whole life, so I have some idea what a quality moving company should operate like. These guys come prepared with moving pads and straps, and never put themselves in unsafe situations, which definitely provides me with som piece of mind! I've also seen the company as a whole evolve from more of a informal service in 2013, to a much more efficient and professional system now. You get email confirmations a few days before, sign the contract on an iPad and an instant email receipt. I recommend Moxie to anyome moving locally! read more

I want to take the time to tell you how grateful I am to: Shawn, Brandon and Ty. They took so much time in prepping my furniture and then when they arrived at my new home, they were extremely careful to place my items. Besides being extremely kind and considerate, they made sure I was happy with everything. I will definitely recommend Moxie Movers to anyone that is considering a move. Best moving experience I've had. read more

Absolutely amazing! The guys were very professional and I felt completely at ease with them moving my things. They showed up on time, confirmed the items I wanted to move and got straight to work. This was my first experience hiring professional movers, so I only had them move my larger furniture (fearing it wouldn't be worth the $ to have them move boxes). Lesson learned - next time I'll just pay a bit more to have them move everything. Couldn't have been a better experience! I don't plan on moving again for a while, but when I do I'll definitely be using Moxie! read more

We've used Moxies Movers three times and they did a great job every time. The crews are friendly, polite, and energetic. They are very careful with your furniture and helpful getting it placed where you want it. We hope not to move again, but if we do, we'll use moxie movers! read more

Again, all I'll say about working with Moxie Movers is to expect total professionalism, good nature, and hard work. These guys are at the top of their game. Had another local move with some particularly huge and heavy items and they were just on it. No complaints, no issues. Plus they now have an automated system (it seems) where we got an email and a phone call the day of confirming they were coming. No stress. Thanks Moxie Movers! read more

I used Moxie Movers 2 years ago for a move into a 3rd floor walk-up apartment. The crew were amazing; efficient, friendly, and honest- and using their services to get my move done was worth every single penny! I'm moving again at the end of the month, and guess who I'm calling? These guys. If you're looking for moving help, look no further- you won't regret it! read more

The best experience I could have hoped for. I ended up not liking the place I originally intended to move into. So I had to change my move date and my destination. Moxie was super understanding and flexible! The move itself went without hitch. They even gave me some advice on how to repair some of my furniture, which was damaged a while back. Very kind and super professional. They clearly love what they do. Thank you! read more

Moxie Movers are freakin awesome. We moved a few days ago from a one bedroom apartment downtown to a house out in the burbs. We decided to hire movers for the first time and went with Moxie after Lauren C.'s raving review. We ended up moving on the hottest day of the year so we were even more sure of our decision to hire movers. Rob, Stew and Tom showed up exactly when they said they would and got working right away. They had smiles on their faces the whole time and were such a delight. Once we got to the new house the put our stuff exactly where we wanted it and didn't break a single item (something I was worried about). We gave them plenty of water during the move and made sure to order pizza for them since our move didn't finish up until after 7. My only regret with the experience is that we won't be moving again anytime soon so we can't use Moxie again for awhile. But I absolutely can't wait to recommend them to all of my friends. Top notch! read more

UPDATE: (5/12/15) I received a reply from the owner of the company today. I am apparently expected to be able to know and see what is going on in his personal life before I make negative reviews online. http://imgur.com/aOZrclg is the email reply I recieved. COMPLETELY unprofessional from beginning to end. While I'm very sorry that the owner had a difficult period in his life, this is not how to speak to customers. My review stands. read more

This review is months late... Just found it in my drafts! Well, less than a week before my move and Moxie just called and cancelled. They have "too many out of town moves" so I guess I got bumped. Originally, I had gotten a quote for a long-distance move. After I got the quote, it was too high so I booked them just to load my U-haul. (Also just wanted to note that they don't have a DOT # - required for inter-state moves - so I'm not sure how they legally could have moved me across the country anyway.) I booked them for an in-town job. I understand it's the busiest time of year but confirming the job and then cancelling with less than a week's notice is super shady. I had asked before for some sort of confirmation email and was told they "don't really do that." So I was accepting the job would be done on good faith. Aaand they cancelled. Not cool! read more

So, I have always seen movers as an extravagance that I assumed I couldn't afford. For our most recent move we decided that we were rich enough to spring for movers to just do the furniture. Moxie Movers were a bargain at twice the price - worth every penny. They communicated with us as to their ETA so we knew what to expect. Everything was expertly wrapped and moved with care, even a little daring. Often when they asked us what room to put a piece of furniture in I would tell them to surprise me and somehow they picked the right spot.* I was very pleased, would certainly use them again and would highly recommend them to anyone. *Okay, this might be a bit of an exaggeration, but just a bit. read more

Look no further. Moxie is the company to go with. Don't be thrown off by their clean cut / GQ-est appearance! Those boys and moving champions! Customer service :: They were able to help me out in a jam (I called Wednesday at 10:30am and they were able to move me the following Thursday at 2pm). The called to confirm the appointment and showed up when they said they would. They were polite and respectful. They were also dressed sharply and looked professional. Lastly, unlike other moving companies in the RVA area no one on the Moxie team was drunk or high. Moving services :: They were respectful and careful. Nothing was broken and my furniture was wrapped and handled perfectly. They hustled and didn't require the 'client supervision or direction' some other companies require. $$$$ :: They projected the move to take 3 hours and it did. There wasn't any surprise charges or additional time they billed for their breaks. They gave me a projected cost and that was exactly what it ended up being. Moving can be expensive and being able to actually plan for it was a huge bonus! All in all I don't have any complaints. They were rock starts and I'll be using them next time! MOXIE ROCKS!!! read more

We hired a crew of three and we are glad that we did. We had everything ready as we had hired an organizer\packer. The three guys did an excellent job getting everything into the truck for our long distance move. I would recommend. read more

Jesse and the guys are just great! We used them for a move in October. When I called for a quote, I got just that - a complete price that included everything. Other guys will tell you a price, plus taxes, plus gasoline, plus a travel fee, plus blah blah blah. Not only was their estimate correct, it was also affordable. I highly recommend these guys!! read more

My husband has used Moxie Movers several times and always had great things to say about them. Well this time he had to go to work so I was the one at home when they delivered our items. I guess one guy is sexist because every time he spoke to me he had an attitude. That's great since this was my first experience with them. One guy was super nice and the other one didn't seem to have any common sense. I'd like to point out before I get to the really bad stuff that my husband called to speak with someone months ago and never got a call back so that's why I'm leaving the review. Here's a list of all the stuff that went wrong aside from the sexist jerk that had an attitude the whole time. 1) broke a glass shelf (they said they'd replace it but never did which doesn't matter because of my next point) 2) bent the metal frame for the glass shelf (had to throw that out) 3)didn't listen to me about bringing our large couch in and damaged the ceiling and wall and nearly broke off a light in our foyer 4) slammed a heavy dresser into our bedroom door which we will have to repainted or replaced now 5) banged a shelf into our wall leaving a hole in shiplap (right now we have it covered but if we ever move the furniture we will have to replace all of the shiplap in that section) 6) damaged an antique table and chairs that we used at our wedding (they will need to be reinforced and repainted) 7) damaged wood shelves my husband made by walking on them (there was literally a boot print on 2 of the shelves which will need to be sanded and re-stained) I know I'm forgetting other damaged items but I can't find the list I gave my husband when he called. We will never use these movers again. If they had called back to fix the issues it wouldn't be so bad but it's been several months and no call back so here we are. read more

I used Moxie Movers for a recent move and was beyond impressed with the speed of the move, the rate, the care the movers took with all my stuff.....everything! I absolutely hate moving and this move fell during a particularly stressful and chaotic week. Working with Jesse and his team was just about the least stressful part of the week, and I'm so grateful! Their rates are the best in town and there are ZERO hidden charges, which I have never experienced with a moving company! They are great about communicating with you (expected arrival times, how long things will take, where should things go, etc), and the three man crew was able to get all of my stuff moved in about three hours! I found Moxie Movers on Yelp and was a little suspicious about all the five-star reviews, but now I see that they are more than deserved, and I absolutely plan on booking them if I ever move again! read more

I hadn't moved in seven years, so I simply Googled movers for Richmond. Moxie came up at the top and all of their reviews were 5-star. Figuring this too good to be true, I contacted Jesse for a quote as well as a couple other area companies. While Moxie will not give a firm quote, they will give you a very good estimate of how much it will cost based on what you have. I chose them and couldn't be happier. Marshall, Steven and Other Guy (sorry) were on time and very professional. As opposed to movers I've had in the past, these guys really hustled. My move was complete in two hours for less than half the money of quotes I received from other companies. Moxie is where it's at in Richmond, and I will definitely be calling on them for any future needs! read more

When I found Moxie Movers on Yelp, I wasn't sure that any business could really have so many 5 star ratings that were legitimate. But I called Jesse anyway, and I am glad I did. Everything everyone has said is true. Jesse and his crew were on time, efficient, and a pleasure to work with. Despite their best efforts, we did end up with one slightly damaged corner on a piece of furniture. I didn't notice it until weeks later, and when I told Jesse about it, he still offered to make it right, even thought he had no recollection of anything happening to it. It can happen in any move, and he took responsiblity for it. Thanks Jesse! I hope I don't move again for a long time, but if I do, I'm calling Moxie Movers! read more

UPDATE: After getting divorced, I needed to move again - once to storage and again to my new digs. Moxie saved the day! They truly are there for every occasion:) Now I have used them for 4 moves and I still say hands down they are the BEST! **** Moving isn't typically fun or easy. We had three quotes from other moving companies that were way overpriced and difficult to deal with. Thank goodness we found Moxie Movers on line and kicked the other guys to the curb. We used Moxie movers to move us from D.C. to Richmond and we were beyond happy with them. They are a great value, easy to work with, polite, careful with our stuff, hardworking and fun to be around. The move went smoothly and was stress free. They saved our marriage....the last time my husband and I moved furniture together, we about killed each other! Now, we have our go-to movers and marriage savers! Thanks guys! Hope you will be able to move us again (once we find a house). read more

These guys are good. A crew of three guys (including Jesse) just moved me across town. They showed up on time, were ready to go, and professional the whole way through. A couple of things really stood out which I feel compelled to point out. I had to stop by my new leasing office to sign paper work and pick up some keys. Instead of just following me over and waiting to go, the guys went and took a 30 minute coffee break. I just figured it was part of the deal and I'd be charged. I wasn't. Additionally, the elevator in my new building broke down during the move for about 30 minutes. I figured I would also be charged for the waiting time to have it fixed. I wasn't. If you hire Moxie Movers you'll get a courteous, prompt, and professional group of individuals to help you through the stress of moving. Thanks Jesse. read more

We needed all our downstairs furniture moved into one room so we could refinish the floors. I called the last company I had used for a move and was shocked by their estimate so I asked a friend for a recommendation and she said Moxie Movers. I honestly expected an even higher estimate. BUT they were super accommodating and knowledgeable. And MUCH cheaper than the other estimate I got. The guys are super personable and careful. Three guys moved everything including a piano down three stairs and then another three moved it all back two weeks later. Their prices are very fair. I would recommend them to anyone! Great experience! read more

Charles, Julio and Rob were fantastic when moving us into our new home. Even though it was raining off and on all day the guys were careful and efficient. They were also careful not track any mud into old house or new house. This attention to detail along with their good attitude in a couple of difficult spots is why they earned the full five stars. Highly recommend. read more

These guys are great! I've moved across the country and across town, so I've got lots of experience moving. But I was so pleased to have the team arrive ready and energized (even on such a hot day). I did a lot to prep for them, so they loaded up my old place in no time. When we made it to the new stop, they got everything out of the truck and placed how I wanted. I couldn't have asked for a better group. I hopefully don't have to move again too soon, but I'll be recommending them to all my friends! read more

Moxie Movers - Movers Near Me

First time using professional movers and I'm so impressed that the closest description of these men's abilities is SUPERMAN!!! They worked efficiently and at a remarkable pace. But my apt bldg definitely provided a serious challenge for these 3 men, but they tackled it without complaint. They were respectful and very professional, they deserve 10 stars and so does this company. Will use them again! read more

The BEST moving experience ever! I was super stressed about my move because I had lived at my place for over 10 years and had never had to deal with a move with as much stuff as I have now! From the moment I made the reservation with Jesse to when the crew of 4 arrived at my place, I was put immediately at ease. They arrived promptly, always calling ahead to let me know what was going on, and immediately started to get to work. They didn't waste any time in getting their truck loaded and handled all of my stuff like it was their own. I had a few larger pieces that needed a little creativity to get down the stairs, but they handled it like it was nothing! The unloading went even smoother - all my boxes and furniture pieces were put in exactly the places I wanted them and they also made sure I had walking space in between everything so I can unpack at my own pace. They were super courteous, friendly, and great to talk to. I HIGHLY recommend them! read more

These guys are great! I found them here on Yelp and decided to give them a shot because of all of the great reviews they had and I couldn't be happier that I did. First, Jesse is easy to get a hold of and quick to return your calls or emails. He's also extremely flexible and willing to work with you on pick up times, etc. There aren't any hidden charges. He'll quote you an hourly rate, and that's what it costs. Jesse and his team moved me and my husband on a day when it hit about 110 degrees here in Richmond, but they did not falter. They showed up prepared and ready to work. These guys had us completely moved and unloaded in just about 3 hours. I can't say enough about these guys. They're nice, professional and easy to work with and they didn't break a thing. They will even disassemble and reassemble furniture for you. We had boxes labeled for each room and they even went the extra mile to unload the boxes into the proper rooms. And the best part is, they're extremely affordable. If you're even thinking about it, definitely give these guys a call. You won't regret it. read more

My wife and I just finished moving into our "forever home" and we literally "couldn't have done it" without Moxie Movers help. Having worked part-time, for other office moving companies *and* having been moved badly by the military more places and times than I can remember, I was more than a little concerned when Jesse (the owner of Moxie Movers) met with me to go over our move request. You see, we had a 10x20' storage space (at"Uncle Bob's" storage on Hull Street Rd in Midlothian, Va), another 12x20' storage space at the apartments we were living in (about 10 minutes away), and a two bedroom apartment. ...which Jesse estimated that his company could move IN A SINGLE DAY in just under 12 hours. I thought that he might be being a *little* aggressive with the time estimate bit I figured that we were still getting a GREAT deal for what we were paying. They didn't disappoint!! They blew our minds! !!! They got everything moved to our new home 45 minutes away, into our home *and* a trucking shipping container in TWO TRIPS......IN JUST AT 12 HOURS! !!!! INSANE RIGHT! ?!?!? Note: The time included a lunch- break because Hoda 4-man crew needed to refuel. Is have to say that this, by far, had been the most seamless and pain-free move that I've ever done and I'd recommend Moxie Movers to ANYONE looking for a company that knows exactly how a professional moving crew "gets it done". THANK YOU to the "Boar-hoggers" at Moxie Movers! !! read more

After acquiring several quotes from local moving companies, I decided to go with Moxie Movers because the price was right. I needed to move on relatively short notice and the owner, Jessie, made accommodations to fit our moving needs. The moving team was very personable & efficient. They worked hard to make our move go as smoothly as possible. This was a whole house move too! I would definitely hire them again for my future moving needs--which I hope won't be for a while! read more

Once again you guys have my praises. I recently-more like yesterday-just moved into a 2 bedroom townhouse. You guys were so professional, and made my family and I feel so comfortable. Thank you for taking special care of our belongings. I highly recommend you. Please if your a Yelper reading this review and is overwhelmed with moving. Get Moxie Movers they are truly the absolute bet moving company. read more

Moxie Movers is my go-to moving company in Richmond. Used them for 3+ moves and have recommended them to friends. They are very flexible with scheduling and were able to move me on the fly/same day of request after my apartment had a roof leak. Every crew I have used has been fantastic and all my furniture (including two large couches) made the moves. They wrap all the furniture in the moving pads and are willing to move it around once in the space so that its set up how I want. Definitely going to use them for all my future moves! read more

I recommend Moxie Movers so often that it just made sense to write them a review. Moxie has moved me twice and each time they were quick, efficient, friendly, and ultimately, hiring them was the greatest decision I made in moving. The price is perfect. They are quick and efficient and are a great investment in your own sanity to have someone else do the heavy lifting. The guys I worked with were awesome. They were able to get furniture around tights turns and up stairs that seemed unnavigable to me. Moxie is awesome. They will be my first call when I think about my next move. read more

I was very pleased with with this company. For starters, they have one of the lowest prices that I've come across. Not only is their hourly rate lower than the competitors, but Moxie only charges you a small fuel charge to get to the house that you're moving from and back to their location from your new house. Whereas other companies charge an extra hour for that. Just a note, Moxie, as well as all other competitors have a two hour minimum. So if your move takes less than that, you'll be charged two hours. Anyways, upon arrival, I did judge the movers by their looks. I had three guys in their low twenties that were all tall and pretty thin. My initial judgment could not have been any more wrong! These guys were on beast mode from the minute they arrived to my front door to the minute they unloaded the last box. Most important, they were very friendly, polite, professional, careful and very quick! My only reason for not giving 5 stars is because every single time that I called Moxie, a secretary answered and no matter what my question was, someone always had to call me back. They were pretty prompt with returning the calls, but we played phone tag for a while because I mostly called them while I was at work. That can get a little frustrating. So it would be nice to be able to get directly through to someone that could help me. Aside from that, I would highly recommend Moxie. read more

I only wish that I could give these guys more than 5 stars. They made the entire dreaded moving day a breezy experience. Three guys and a truck showed up on time this morning and loaded my entire house out, moved it across town, and unloaded it all, exactly where I asked for any item to be placed, as well as dealing with a very large treadmill and a very tricky hallway situation, in 4 hours. All three guys were extremely nice and even in the hot, humid Richmond sun never once showed and ounce of irritation of exacerbation with some of the difficult items that were moved. For a company that charges by the hour (at a very fair rate) these guys didn't stop moving from the moment they pulled up to the moment the last box was in place. Use Moxie Movers if you are looking for a locally owned company to make your move painless. They were efficient and took great and obvious care with all of our items, even those which the kids had clearly had a time with already. I truly cannot recommend these guys enough. read more

They did a great job. They have a quick response to emails. The movers were professional and courteous. We appreciated that they handled the move efficiently and took care in stacking our belongings. We will definitely use them in the future and refer to others. The price is comparable with other moving companies. The service was A+. read more

These guys were awesome! I got the bad news from my apartment complex that the freight elavator was broken and not going to be fixed in time for my move. I lived on the third floor. They still got my stuff in the truck and across town without going over time... and without complaining. I had all my stuff packed up and ready to go. All told, we came in under three hours. They were responsive when I called, showed up on time, and worked hard the entire time. I keep telling my friends to use these guys. I know I will when I make my next move. read more

We used Moxie two separate times over a few months, and I can't recommend them highly enough! Setting up the move was very simple, both crews were very professional, sharp and very careful with all of our belongings. We had a few very large and heavy pieces that I was a bit worried about, but both crews handle them with ease. We also had a few large mirrors and pictures that they wrapped up very carefully and there was no damage to any of our pieces. I checked around with several leading movers in Richmond before using these guys and honestly they came in at about half of the price of another moving company that we were going to use. Again - highly recommended! read more

My husband and I moved just a few miles down the road, but wanted some help getting the big pieces of furniture and his record collection safely delivered to the new house. We hired Moxie Movers at the recommendation of others homeowners in our new neighborhood. What an awesome experience! They were efficient, very gentle with our antiques and willing to make sure that every piece was exactly where we wanted it. We will definitely recommend Moxie Movers to all our friends! read more

I selected Moxie Movers after reading the amazing reviews here on Yelp. Their flat hourly pricing was awesome as well, since I'd paid a lot using movers in the past. You never know if a company is too good to be true until you try them for yourself. Well, I had nothing less than an excellent experience with Moxie Movers during my recent move from Petersburg to Richmond. Grover, Rob and Joe were professional, efficient and effective! I even got a recommendation to a vegan-friendly bakery near my new neighborhood. I highly recommend Moxie Movers! read more

We've used Jesse's team 4 times in the last 8 months. They are nearly perfect. We've moved all over the country and in Richmond a dozen times. Our past experience with other movers has always been awful. Moxie is the exception - they are spectacularly good. Super positive, caring and conscientious. I cannot overstate how positive the experiences have been. Use Moxie with confidence. They will not let you down. Thank YOU Jesse and team!! read more

Absolutely impressed. Organized, professional, hard working, honest. Trustworthy all around. I have had bad experiences with movers previously and could not have asked for a better experience. I am so appreciative of your work. Thank you!! read more
