Bait‑and‑Switch -- Final Cost Was Over 3× the Quote…read more If you're considering this company, Google "Verity Van Line Complaints." I wish I had. My written estimate was $2,392. After a date change and storage, it jumped to $3,956. Then, while they had my furniture, they demanded another $3,529.81 or they wouldn't release it. Final cost: $7,529.81 -- more than THREE TIMES the original quote. This was a blatant bait‑and‑switch and a hostage move. (I'd also like to note that if my salesperson had been honest and forthright and given me a total of over $7,000, instead of telling me to just give them a check for $4,000, two days prior to my move, I would have canceled them as I had another mover on hold just in case. The crews were unprofessional and aggressive. Antiques were shoved into boxes, no FRAGILE stickers, furniture wasn't wrapped, bedding was not in a sanitary bag, everything smelled like cigarettes, and they even tried to give me two TVs that weren't mine. ( There is no inventory list. They just put stickers on everything after the fact .) My garage was ransacked and my late father's fishing gear disappeared. I paid $400 for insurance that they never provided and was charged for unpacking which they didn't do. I now have over $5,000 in damages in my furniture. Michael Mafucci is dismissive and condescending towards me. His "solution" was to send "his guy who knows how to fix things" over and offer me $1,000. Here's the part that really stands out: Men who file complaints seem to get results. As a senior woman, I was dismissed and placated. (A complaint I filed with the BBB has still not been addressed, while complaints filed by men are addressed and treated with a sense of urgency)* There are honest Moving Companies out there. This is not one of them. *UPDATE: The Complaint was answered by an unidentified person who is now claiming my job was two separate moves! Obviously they didn't review the documents or even their own emails, and this response is unacceptable.

The company's truck was clean and insect-free. We had numerous communications from the Verity team and Rob Johnson's estimate was spot-on. The three-man moving crew that was assigned to our move (Chris, Timmy and Joe) were hardworking, friendly and careful. They took the time to ensure that everything was properly packed and positioned in the truck so there was no damage to our furniture, glassware and electronics for the 200+ mile journey. Verity's team of professionals were quick, loading and unloading our items. A special thanks to the crew chief who, like a master of Jenga, made everything fit in the truck.

I…read morewas pretty nervous leading up to it--moving with two toddlers is no small feat--but Pete, Matija, and Emil made the entire process incredibly smooth. All three were young, but very composed and clearly experienced (definitely learned a lot of moving hacks from them). Emil handled disassembling and reassembling our king‑size bed frame and crib effortlessly (something our last movers really struggled with), and the team even came the day before to help pack about half our boxes so that moving day would go quickly. They worked fast, stayed organized, and took great care with everything. At our new apartment, they navigated two separate elevators with ease and got every piece of furniture right where it needed to go. And the cherry on top--they even made sure the loose dollar bills my wife had lying around were safely packed into our boxes! That level of honesty and attention to detail really stood out. Couldn't recommend Perfect Moving Co. more highly. They turned what could have been a stressful move into a genuinely positive experience.

We called several companies and Perfect Moving offered us the best price. They also have an excellent communication system And are extremely responsive. They moved us out from our previous apartment and they took their time to wrap every single piece of furniture to protect them. We stored our things with them for 5 months while traveling because again they offered the best price also in storage and it was convenient. They sent us invoices every month with the charge but let us know days in advance we were going to be charged for that. This week they moved us into our new apartment making 2 stops. First to get our things from their storage, then to pick up other things we had in Manhattan MinI Storage and then to bring everything home. At the end, someone called us to ask how the service was. Who does that these days? This is our Go-To company whenever we move again. 200% recommended.

Highly recommend O'Shea Trucking for your next move!…read more I interviewed so many movers in anticipation for our move this April/May. I got a mailer in from O'Shea trucking and decided to give them an opportunity to give an estimate. I spoke to Michelle O'Shea who told me it was a family business and they help to move locally and long distance. She scheduled with Rick, her husband, to come provide an estimate. When Rick came to provide the estimate, he was informative, kind and thorough. He went to see all the rooms, attic and crawl space. I really appreciated that the owner himself came to do the estimate rather than the previous sales people I've dealt with at other companies. Michelle sent over the quote and I was able to secure my date with a deposit. Unfortunately, we had issues with our closing date and buyers and had to changed our previously scheduled moving date. Michelle was wondering and communicative as she accommodated our new date. She was able to set up a crew to help me move before we needed to be out of the house. I was so appreciative of all her efforts. The day of the move, Rick called me and informed me that the crew was on their way. Rick himself and 4 members of his team were there ready to work. They were efficient, they worked well together, communicated well and everything flowed. They did a walk through prior to the move to ensure what was being moved and packed everything up so well. When moving into the new space, they transported all the furniture and assembled them in their designated rooms. They put down runners throughout the house to ensure everything was safe and transported well. They asked questions and moved things where directed. Each person had a task - unloading, building, transporting and the family team really worked well together. I highly recommend O'Shea Trucking for your next move. From someone who got about 6 quotes prior to meeting O'shea, I am so thankful for the mailer I received from them and very grateful I reached out. I hope not to move again in the near future, however I will recommend them to anyone and everyone. My coworker is eager to work with them on her move and I will be using them for my parents move. Rick and Michelle - thank you for a great moving experience. Your team was wonderful!

I selected Lite Moving and Sons for several reasons. 1) excellent initial interaction with both Frank and Anthony. They both provided so much information about inter state moving, how to properly box items, how they could help, insurance and more. 2) they were on time and professional. Every person on the job was friendly and very polite. They were full of smiles and good cheer at both ends of the job which was very stressful for me! 3) the estimate they provided actually came in UNDER the original price.

I had a small, last minute move and they squeezed my move in after another move. This happened to me once before and, from past experience, I one hundred percent expected cranky, tired movers and maybe even some damage from rushing. Well, that is the OPPOSITE of what I got.

This year has been a lot of moving for me, and moving is so stressful. I've heard great reviews…read morefrom my nyc friends about roadway moving, so I decided to get a quote from them. After talking to them, I knew I wanted to go with them. Their customer service, attention to details, and organization are 5-star levels. One thing that really stood out to me was that instead of asking me how many boxes I need, they asked me to send them pics of my place and stuff, and they calculated the number of small, medium and large boxes I need. It's so easy to underestimate and get a different price at the end. Also, I know I wanted packers because its speeds up the entire process of moving and settling in. I'm so glad I did with Roadway. It usually takes me over half a week to pack and be stressed for over a week, but Diego and his 3 teammates packed up our studio in 2-3 hours. They're so professional. They moved so quickly with care and accuracy. Most importantly, all my kitchen appliances were wrapped with care and delivered and arrived to my new apartment in the same condition. It took us about 2 hrs to settle in, and they once again unpacked most of the furnitures and reassembled them, making me feel settled in and relaxed. I cannot thank their team enough. They're all so polite, friendly and efficient. Within 1 day, I already feel 95% settled in. It's the easiest, stress-free moving experience I had in a while!

I don't usually write reviews, but this experience absolutely deserves one…read more I used Roadway Moving for my move, and from start to finish it was seamless. Before they even arrived, I got a tracking link to follow their location just like Uber, which immediately made me feel at ease. Crisanto and his crew showed up right on time and were incredible. They worked quickly but carefully, wrapping all of my furniture and somehow managing three giant mirrors without a single issue. Not one complaint and not one moment of stress. What really stood out was how above and beyond they went. They helped me figure out which part of my couch would actually fit in my space, laid out my rugs, and organized everything so I could still move around my studio comfortably. Also shoutout to one of the crew members who was on his first day. You truly could not tell. The whole team was professional, efficient, and just genuinely great to work with. This was hands down the easiest move I've ever had. If you are debating which moving company to use, this is your sign. Go with them.
