We used this company to move 6 hours from Long Island. I found the estimator to be very trustworthy- Kenny came to my house, he was kind and thorough. I believe the quote he gave me was reasonable. He stated that your drivers would be weighing the truck in Farmingdale. This was a lie. Your movers told us they measure the cubic feet to get to a weight measurement. The estimate was incredibly off, though it was comparable to other companies that I spoke to. The sale rep, Elaine, also sold the company very well- it seems like she is on your side. However, when it came to the move:
- She did not
- She did not

If I can give this company a negative rating I would.... they do not call their patrons to let them know they go over cubic footage (that's how they get you!!) and then spring on extra charges.... threaten leans on property. They also break furniture And refuse to pay or replace it.... they use enterprise trucks, not even a company van. AVOID, AVOID, AVOID, AT ALL COST!

This company charged me 500 extra insurance for full coverage replacement. They scratched and chipped my furniture. Broke my fragile dinning set. The workers kept going in and out of my bathroom in groups....then one of them threw up on my lawn. They could not put 2 bedroom sets back together because they lost the hardware. when I spoke to Gavy the owner he said he had to inspect it with his restoration guy. I forbid him from coming into my home. I asked for insurance papers and he refused to help. I have an attorney now and I would no recommend this company to anyone.

DO NOT USE THESE MOVERS!! the movers were fine, however, the company would not provide an insurance certificate for the move. Very unprofessional. The movers indicated they were filing a claim, however, when I called the office several times I was informed they would not issue the certificate for my building. Not a good way to start a relationship with management at a new building!!

Stay away from this company!! We had gotten several quotes from different companies. One company came to the house and gave us a detailed quote which we sent to them to give us a quote. They came in cheaper because they missed half the items. They didn't tell us we had to pay for packing day which cost $1500. Then moving day they filled up one 26' truck and had to get another. Then we have to pay $4000 which is half the estimate. Then we get to our new house and the truck was supposed to come the next day. Does not show up and nobody calls us. We left many messages to find out what&apos
