Rain or shine, nothing stopped Smith Dray Line out of Greenville, SC from getting our move underway. We recently moved from Easley to our newly built home in Taylors, SC, and the entire process from start to finish was seamless. Our two-day move during the busy season was led by driver Brandon Rodgers from the Greenville location--an excellent driver with a professional crew who took great care to protect our walls, floors, and belongings. Driver Willie McFadden from the Rock Hill office and his crew were just as outstanding, happily accommodating extra requests without a single complaint. I highly recommend Smith Dray Line at any of their locations--our experience with the Greenville office proved they deliver quality service from a family-owned company that's been around since 1888. We couldn't be more pleased; they truly are the BEST in the moving industry. read more

Smith Dray Line - SDL- from old house Easley SC - Self Storage Near Me - Greenville, South Carolina

Great moving company! Everything has been smooth, with no drama. Friendly people. Mike Thomas surveyed our stuff and quickly gave me an estimate. He had no problem when I wanted to make some adjustments, we had some furniture we discovered would not work at our upcoming house in Portland. He even responded when I called him at night! He fired up his computer and got us answers. Total professional. Tondra Knight was right on time with the paperwork, again, no surprises and very friendly. She also offered me moving boxes and she set up the transport of our car, from Greenville to Portland, Oregon! Of course I checked www.protectyourmove.gov and found that Smith Dray has no complaints reported at the U.S. Dept Of Transportation website. Being a crazy radio person, I've actually moved about 18 times around the country. I can tell you that Smith Dray is one of the great moving companies! read more

Our move went very smoothly with Smith Dray Line's Charleston office. Kellie Young gets the biggest kudos since she staying in communication throughout our move from Charleston, SC to the Denver area. Everyone we came in contact with was very professional and pleasant. There was some damage incurred to the house due to an oversized piece of furniture we moved out but, the claim was taken care of very quickly. I highly recommend Smith Dray Line for al things moving related. read more

We've moved several times around the country for work, and our most recent move during March of 2017 was our 4th major move of greater than 1k miles. We used Smith-Dray in Greenville and they were by far the BEST movers we've ever hired! I contacted 3 different companies for this move and from the beginning it was clear that Atlas & Smith-Dray seemed to actually care the most. We hired them to do all of our packing and they packed up the entire 2000 sq ft house in under two hours. They handled our stuff with care, delivered our furniture 5 days early, and were cheaper than they initially quoted. Plus, you work with the same agent/contact person throughout the entire process making it way easier to do business with them. Leslie Snell was our agent and she was incredible! If you're moving anywhere in the Greenville area (to or from), I would highly recommend using them! read more

Smith Dray handled our move from the Charleston area to Venice, Florida. We did lots of research and Smith Dray had a better record than the others. But what a disappointment. We were made promises about how certain things would be packed, such as the mattress being boxed. None were kept; the driver, a contract driver with his own rig, just said "No, we don't do it that way". To their credit Smith Dray paid for someone to box the mattress properly at the storage space our stuff was taken to, but that's about all I can give them credit for. Several pieces of furniture were broken; we only caught one at the at the time of the dropoff, which we were informed AFTER they put all the stuff in storage was the last time we could make a claim! What shits! We would have had to pull whatever we wanted to examine back out of the storage space while they waited, at the end of the day when everyone was tired, so we only got a brief look at whatever was in front. They also squeezed the bottom freezer door on the French door fridge to where it will not slide in or out smoothly and we must replace it ourselves for $700, $200 more if the slides are damaged. We wrapped all our own pictures ourselves, with the exception of two mirrors, two large pictures, and a TV. Our wrapped stuff survived. One mirror they wrapped was damaged; their wrapping on some of the other items was inferior. We put a prominent star on some boxes that we wanted put aside and not put into storage. The workers couldn't hold that thought for the three hours of unloading, though we reminded them several times, and some very important boxes went into storage where it took a lot of effort to find them. If I could take back the tip I gave each worker I would. If you want to pull aside anything so it doesn't go into storage, you must not rely on these types, you must stand there YOURSELF and look at every item that comes off the truck. Another reviewer thought that the fact Smith Dray had no complaints at protectyourmove.gov was a good sign. Well, that site takes complaints about fraud, which is not the same as incompetence and indifference. Would I use Smith Dray again? No, I wouldn't. read more

Having moved 23 times in the past 40yrs we were extremely disappointed with the move and especially the storage of our household goods. 1) Large painting totally LOST after they mistakenly brought it to our home instead of storage. 2) Large iron base of marble topped antique wall/shelf unit LOST. All claims on these items have been denied by Lisa Stevens, Claim Manager read more

The folks in the Greenville office were a pleasure to deal with, and I saved a lot of money being able to get free boxes from their warehouse. All appointments were kept on time, including moving day. Everyone, including the movers and craters, was polite at all times and did what we asked them to do. Most of the move went well, but 6 pieces of furniture were damaged. Nearly all were repaired (and repaired beautifully!), but one was not (an antique chair), and it should have been. The man in charge didn't mark it on the forms, though he said he did. When it came time to unpack at our destination, only 2 men were on the truck, so it took them forever and they were understandably exhausted, especially since the weather during the drive was horrendous. If they had more men with them, they wouldn't have just shoved the last few pieces in the garage, which is where some of the damage occurred. I would use them again, but I would be more careful to see that damages were recorded and that they were going to have enough movers at the destination. read more

As a retired executive from a Fortune 500 company I was relocated no less than 7 times during my career. Moving can be a very stressful event but my wife and I became accustomed to having our prized possessions handled with superior care. Over our 42 years of marriage we have been fortunate to inherit irreplaceable family heirlooms that we dearly love and cherish. When I first met Sarah from Smith Dray (AshevilleCandler office) she assured me that our move would be handled by one of their two very best drivers. We felt reassured when she later informed us that Farris ,a local western NC driver ,had been assigned to us. The move occurred in July and as we continue our methodical unpacking in our new home we can without question report that has been a complete and total disaster. As of this date we can report that we have had 8 legs cracked or completely broken off of furniture. A marble topped dresser was broken in two by careless handling even after my wife reminded Farris and his team to be especially careful with that item. The overall damage has been distressing and has brought my wife to tears several times as she continues to review the aftermath of this move. I am not sure whether this is my last move but it certainly is my last with Smith Dray- Atlas Moving Company. read more
