We've used these guys for multiple moves within the house, when we had to move heavy furniture…read morearound to accommodate kids moving back in for awhile, etc., and for that these guys are ok, although the last time they scratched wood stairs and the exercise equipment they were moving, perhaps because they didn't have enough guys, and/or didn't use a belt. They did know ahead of time exactly what they were moving. The more distressing thing is the condition of furniture that was put in storage. They did not plastic or blanket wrap antique wood furniture, or box lamp shades, so that we have several badly scratched table tops and a broken Tiffany glass lamp shade. They didn't even think to cover the floors moving furniture in and out in the middle of winter when they were going through slush to get to the trucks, and when I covered the entrance they kicked the covering aside and walked on the floor anyway. These guys are young, friendly and do their best, but they are not professionals, and not even trained to move things correctly.

They were very friendly and only took the minimum quoted time to complete the job. I was able to get a quote via a text with 15 minutes and all the paperwork was flawlessly emailed to me immediately.

We have a local move coming up so I used Yelp to check out moving companies and pick one with great…read morereviews. Patriot Moving Systems caught my attention so I called them to get more information. I talked with Dennis to get answers to my questions. He told me they are full service, meaning they will pack as well as move your household contents. You also have the option to do your own packing. One place I called pretty much only loads and moves your stuff so you have to do your own packing. Patriot sells boxes and packing materials but also suggested Home Depot or Lowe's but said he actually prefers and recommends getting these from U-Haul as he thinks theirs are better quality and sturdier. What I like is the way Dennis explained our options without overly promoting materials through Patriot. He also explained the rates for their services. Basically it is an hourly rate per person plus a trip charge and cost of the truck usage. He came out and walked through or house and then was able to give us a rough estimate of the number of hours we would likely need. We planned to use a staging company so we needed to pack some things to thin out certain areas like closets and kitchen countertops. So we arranged for Patriot to send out three people to box and move things into the garage for three hours and that was a big help. They were focused and hard working guys who went practically non-stop for the time scheduled. Whenever there was a question about packing certain items they asked about it. I could tell that they all knew what they were doing, their experience showed and they treated our things as if they were theirs. Delicate items were wrapped well for protection. Our move is currently on hold as we continue to pursue selling our home but Dennis checks in with me periodically to see how things are going. I will update this review once we actually complete our move but we know who we trust with packing and moving our property.

Instead they decided, after I requested a replacement, to glue it back together with JB Weld. They said they couldn't find the same model on eBay. Weeks past. I withheld payment.

We want to give a huge shout out to Extra Mile Movers based in Brighton! Tommy and Jaxon did an…read moreexcellent job moving my mother in law from her 3 bedroom ranch in Shelby Township to the lower level of our condo in Brighton. Despite the 95 degree heat these guys showed up on time. They walked the job first to see what they had to move which in our case was about 40 boxes and bags and about 15 pieces of furniture. They then proceeded to put down runners and shrink wrap the furniture items followed by picking up the heavy boxes and loading their truck. The total job only took them a total of 5.75 hours which included the 2.5 hour round trip drive. The final price was very reasonable since they charge by the hour. Again, this was in exhausting unbearable heat. They even moved a recliner from our first floor to the lower level at our request. These young guys were congenial and very helpful. We would definitely use them again if necessary. They are top notch. We highly recommend them if you have a move in your future.

WARNING: A 38-Mile Move Became a Lawsuit After I Paid the Maximum Quote…read more I strongly recommend that prospective customers understand my experience before hiring Extra Mile Moving. My written estimate for this move was $3,115-$4,075. I paid $4,075--the **maximum estimated amount**. Extra Mile/Moving Forward ultimately billed the move at $8,655.50 and is now suing me for another $4,580.50, plus attorney fees, costs and interest. This was a roughly 38-mile residential move. Extra Mile/Moving Forward had an opportunity to walk through the property before the move and see what was being moved. I also advised them that I had a large number of boxes. When the first truck arrived, I immediately expressed concern that it was too small. The move ultimately required additional truck capacity, additional time and associated charges that I dispute. A substantial portion of my possessions was unloaded into my garage. What I was initially told would be temporary storage became a garage packed with household property, leaving it inaccessible to me. I live alone. As I have gradually been able to unpack and access those belongings, I have continued to discover damaged and missing property. More than $1,500 worth of readily identifiable belongings was left behind at the Brighton property. Containers holding clothing and other belongings were damaged or opened, leaving approximately $1,000 worth of clothing, handbags and shoes on the garage floor. I have also discovered additional damaged property and substantial missing property, including numerous family portraits, many of them originals and irreplaceable. I have photographs documenting the condition of the garage and belongings, as well as photographs showing many of the now-missing family portraits in my former home. Because litigation is pending, I am deliberately limiting this review to facts I can document and my own experience and opinions. Extra Mile/Moving Forward disputes my position, and the court has not yet determined the merits of either side's claims. What I believe prospective customers should know is this: I paid the maximum amount of the original estimate. I disputed thousands of dollars in additional charges. I am documenting damaged, missing and left-behind property. And instead of this ending as a customer-service dispute, I was sued for another $4,580.50 plus attorney fees, costs and interest. Had I known this was a possible outcome of hiring this company for my move, I would have chosen another mover.

I was originally quoted for $180 (high enough) but, it ended up being like $220 with fees and prorating.. ridiculous! BEcause, I booked it on Thursday, luckily not Wednesday like initially intended (needed it for Friday) but, they had to start charging from time of booking which doesn't help me any and cost an extra $8/day. In addition, they left the damn lock on the thing so we couldn't access it until Saturday anyway and were there trying to unload on Friday night and couldn't. Had to wait until Saturday when someone was there to get into it....UGH! frustrating!!! OH well! I need it for about 2 weeks or so and I'll be gone. Just so expensive and I would not recommend them.
