Man With A Van has helped me with two moves, one in 2020 and another recently in March 2026. Both…read moretimes, the movers who have shown up have been professional and done a great job. With my first move in 2020, there was a bit of a scheduling issue, causing the movers to arrive later than originally scheduled and with a van rather than a truck (I had been told that it would be a truck in order to fit all of my belongings into one trip). Therefore, it ended up taking two trips. However, the owner made things right by only charging me the original rate for one trip. Mistakes happen and I'm fine with it, as long as the company owns up to it and makes it right. And there were no similar issues with my second move in 2026. The guys had furniture wrap and blankets to protect my belongings. During both moves, I did not find anything that was damaged at all. What more can you ask for!? I highly recommend Man With a Van! In fact, I'm likely going to use them again soon to help with some items that I will need to move into storage.

The dispatcher Paul needs anger management lessons…read more My friend recently moved across town and ordered Man With A Van movers as they had good experiences with the company in the past. Man With A Van gave my friend two quotes: a cheaper quote for Two Guys with a Van and a more expensive quote for Three Guys with a Truck. My friend sent the more expensive rate for Three Guys with a Truck. But then this dispatcher tried the blame game of "You didn't specify Truck" when to our surprise only Two Guys and a Van showed up. Lemme ask you a question. If I offer you a hotdog for $3 and a burger for $4, and you hand me 4 dollars, wouldn't anyone with a working brainstem assume that meant YOU WANTED THE BURGER? But my friend was sweet and offered: "Maybe y'all can come back tomorrow with three guys and a truck, because it's really a three person job", to which the movers declined. After a quick call, the dispatcher said there'd be no additional charge for extra trips due to the smaller vehicle. What's more is that one of the two Movers had a bad back and couldn't take the stairs like the other dude. So at some points the job is only getting done by one dude (you could argue one-and-a-half dudes). If THREE guys should be able to make the move of loading and unloading in TWO hours, then HALF that much manpower means... you guessed it: it's gonna take at least twice as long! Not to mention they spent extra time stacking things like Jenga inside the van to make it all fit in one trip. Because the job (that my friend agreed to pay $500 for three guys and a truck) took so much longer with one and a half guys and a van, Paul upcharges an extra $300!! Again, my friend is nice, and they're trying to hash this out cause they didn't get what they paid for, regardless of it it took more time. (And again, of course less manpower means more time). But instead of having a conversation with my friend, Paul starts SCREAMING at them, cursing at them, saying "You're Full Of Sh*t!" and threatening legal action immediately! My friend is begging through tears that they want to make this right; begging him to STOP yelling and panicking them. The mover's felt so bad and embarrassed overhearing Paul act like a jack*ss on the phone that one even offered to pay the remainder, but my friend, still shook up and in tears, said that they wanted to make this right and moved what little money they have around to pay as much as they could. We're ALL struggling out here, and the movers def deserve to get paid. I'm sure the dude with the hurt back needs more money and easier hours, but the company is working him to the bone. But to have this dude Paul berate and coerce my friend, spitting venom over the phone? Shouting until my friend is begging in tears for him to stop? I'm never gonna forget that. And this company needs to make things right. The job took long because of Dispatch's mistakes. They sent 1.5 guys to do a 3 man job, without the agreed upon equipment no less. If you want a stress-free experience: steer clear. If you want some jerk from New York taking out his daddy issues on you: you've come to the right place.

I had 6 days to move, within the metro area, and it was Friday afternoon when I knew. This was a…read morerelatively small move. I had maybe 10 pieces of furniture, nothing too heavy, and a bunch of boxes. I didn't need anyone to come look at the items given how little I had but for a bigger move you'll want to ask for that. The process was pretty simple with electronic forms in advance, deposit, and messaging. Again, for my needs, this worked but if you have a bigger move then I recommend a conversation of your needs. There was a delay in response time as it got closer to the move. I was trying to coordinate timing with my new residence but I didnt hear from Ben in a couple days. Didn't matter in the end but I was stressed out given the short window I had to move. The day of, Ben and his guys arrived within the 1-hour time frame they gave me, we did a quick walk thru, and they got started. I noted on yhe form wanting some items wrapped or covered but they asked when they arrived. Appreciate that because I don't really know if it's necessary for some things and it ended up raining that day so good for the fabric. I thought it would take 60-90 minutes to get loaded in the truck but they were done in 45. Honestly, I was worried they may damage the walls or chandelier with stairs and turns, but no problems. They had to wait outside my new place for about 15 minutes while I finished up with some paperwork without complaint. They unloaded is less than 45m and I paid the balance before they left. No damages here either. After a few moves within and across states, I highly recommend plenty of bubble wrap or other protection if you're packing yourself, and packing the right weight for the box. I learned from past experience not to skimp on the number of boxes, rolls of tape, or bubble/paper/peanuts. Ben said they can pack for you but thats another day of work. Overall, a positive experience. Keep in mind it's a small business. Be very clear on what you need and expect, before and during the move.

The final bill was more than double the estimate, and the service was terrible. The Red Flags: - Careless Packing: They put a heavy fan directly on top of my plants. My floor lamp was bent, my grater was broken, and the hands on my clock were bent vertically. - Upselling: I provided my own boxes and asked them to use those first. They ignored my instructions and used their own overpriced boxes instead. - Padded Hours: They left Philly an hour after me but arrived 15 minutes after I did. They also charged me for their lunch break and kept the clock running for 20+ minutes just to calculate my bill. - Poor Management Resolution: I spoke with the owner, who admitted his team messed up and agreed the bill was surprisingly high. He promised a refund, but only refunded the amount I gave as a tip, completely ignoring the padded hours and broken items. Incredibly overpriced and inefficient compared to other local movers. Look elsewhere.

They were able to make our dates work, quoted a reasonable rate, sent a detail oriented team (they…read morewrapped our furniture really well) and overall got the job done satisfactorily. There are a couple of dents in cheaper, softer items, but I don't know how you'd avoid those. The team wanted to work through lunch and ended up taking only a half hour longer than the estimate. There is a charge for using credit, so we made sure to have a combo of cashiers check and cash to cover most of the bill. The guys also suggested using the brown packing tape instead of the clear because it holds the boxes together better. Good luck with your move!

I was truly surprised when I realized this, because I had explained to the movers that this was the most sensitive piece in the move, because of the glass.

It has been (3) three months, and I still have not received a reply.

We did the loading end but the Sultans of Schlep sent 3 smart, funny, hipster artists to unload, which they did in 3 hours. I don't plan to move anytime soon but I would hire them again in a minute.
