    DO NOT HIRE THEM. We were quoted $1,100 after they looked at the whole house to give an "accurate" quote. The crew they sent worked like snails. When they finished, the price became $2,900, and they wouldn't leave without the check. They broke so much stuff, gauged our 1 year old ping pong table, scratched the hutch and dining table, and worst of all broke most of my husband's mother's China. Pictures attached (there's so much more not attached). The owner or manager (whoever was in charge) was extremely aggressive when the issues were addressed. DO NOT HIRE. They break your belongings, change the price, and are extremely aggressive.

    Right now I'm incredibly frustrated. I have been sleeping on an air mattress for nearly a month. While "technically" their delivery is not yet late, I start a new job in a few days and won't even have my household goods before I start. When I tried to call about when a possible delivery might be I keep getting told "a truck is going to leave in a few days". I just want to cry. Update: finally got my stuff. And unpacking in pieces since I had to start my new job before I could get everything unpacked and settled in. It is not even fun to unpack because so many boxes have broken items in them. I'm sitting here crying there is so much. See the pics. I can't even begin to describe the disappointment. My heart is sinking.

    Text message of original delivery estimate and contact (who I didn't ever hear from until Thursday)

    Extremely poor communication, wildly unprofessional, and several "extra" charges from quote. Absolutely not worth it - steer clear. Quote over phone with Zaki said it would likely be 3-5 days to ship to NYC and we discuss the constraints of my move. I shared all details upfront prior to booking the long distance move (I needed to be able to schedule the delivery/loading area in advance and confirm security clearance, and they needed to provide a certificate of insurance which is standard) and was told it would be no issue that they worked frequently in NYC. Upon confirming this, I shared all of these requirements in writing as well prior to pickup of my items. He also took an estimated inventory over the phone which I told him I was uncertain about. I was told it was fine and if I had less when they arrived (which I did) they'd adjust the quote accordingly since it was a rate per cubic foot (they did not). The day of the move, one mover didn't show to help with pickup at all and two others spent time waiting/trying to get a hold of him. Upon completion of pickup they said they'd call the next day to confirm shipping estimated time (which now suddenly could be 2-21 days depending on how they decided to transport) and final charges before running my card which did not happen. Also at pick several extra fees were tacked on for elevator use, long hallway, packing supplies that were not requested, etc. and they left a mess. I didn't hear from anyone for the next two weeks until I reached out, at which point I received a text message (on both Saturday and Monday) stating there was an estimated delivery date of Wednesday and that I'd be contacted by a driver (who's phone number was listed) to confirm the exact time. I went ahead and tentatively secured the loading facilities pending their paperwork. I never heard from anyone again. On Tuesday, I received a text message from a completely random number saying "Hi this is movers Delivery crew is 30 min away" I had still not received the insurance certificate at this point in order to secure loading area and security clearance, and was in the middle of a meeting at work. I reiterate the need to schedule in advance and that I've held the slot for the estimated date they provided. They confirm Wednesday now from 6-9pm. An hour later they say Wednesday doesn't work and I push back given the reservation had been made and there was limited availability at this point in the week. I'm told that it's fine in that case. The next day (Wednesday)I receive a message at 5pm that the drivers are 5 hours away and delivery wouldn't happen. They refuse repeatedly to provide options other than one 9am-12pm window now on Thursday which I had already explained several times at this point was unavailable while providing several other options. Whomever is texting me (I have no clue) insinuates I'm being difficult and I should just tell the building that because my shipment is small they should accommodate which I do not agree to. The dispatcher from pick up calls me later that evening and I explain my frustration and the issue - he says he'll get a confirmed time and call me back. Yet again no one follows up so Thursday afternoon I reach back out asking if there is a confirmed time and am told the movers are coming that evening (had I not reached out we'd have been in the same initial situation again with no reservation). Over the course of the next several hours I'm continuously texting back and forth to coordinate the updates paperwork that had still not been provided. I literally had to sit on the phone and go through line by line (even though instructions in writing direct from the building were shared weeks earlier before pick up happened and forwarded again - the final docs I received were essentially forged/marked up via PDF). I received the final docs 20 minutes before the delivery arrived then started receiving texts from a NEW phone number. The driver said they were at my location and sent a photo of the cross streets. They were not at the correct location. Thankfully he was only two blocks away so I reiterated the address. This happened two more times. It took another hour and several phone calls, eventually just going to find & walk him to the area for him to locate the building. It take less than 20 minutes to unload my items and several boxes (marked fragile) had clearly been tossed around. All in all this was a total nightmare, however until I secured my belongings I wanted to play nice. I looked into licenses and whatnot prior but should have looked much more closely at reviews. I WOULD NOT recommend this company to anyone. I'd gladly pay double the amount next time for a reputable, professional service, especially if moving long distance.

    The beige tape was their tape trying to close my boxes back up after they were crushed.

    DO NOT HIRE THEM! The guys who picked up my load where bickering the whole time about who was doing most of the work. They were rough with all of my boxes. It took a month for my boxes to arrive and they were crushed and so many things were broken, damaged or didn't make it here at all. I called when the boxes showed up and let Sal know the damage to the boxes. He said to email pictures of the boxes which I did right away along with what was missing, Then I could never get a hold of him again. He didn't answer my emails nor voicemail I left for him. I had to drop it for awhile as I had a couple deaths in the family and was also having medical issues. It has been a year and I finally got a hold of Zack, who I talked to in the beginning when I booked them. He basically said it was too late and when I explained that I had been trying to get a hold of Sal without any response back he started yelling at me that I was trying to extort money from them when they stole from me as so many things did not arrive! None of my framed pictures made it here and half of my things were broken or damaged. I had purchased brand new moving boxes to pack and bubbled wrapped everything and they were all crushed. They assured me they wouldn't charge more than my quote and yet when my things arrived they charged me extra and would not unload my stuff unless I paid the extra. And they will not do anything about all my damaged and missing things.This company is a nightmare does not have any integrity. DO NOT TRUST THEM WITH YOUR MOVE! Worst experience ever!!!! If you have been a victim of this company, please report them to the Better Business Bureau. If you have had an Interstate Move with them and have been victimized, you can file a complaint with the Federal Department of Transportation at: https://www.fmcsa.dot.gov/protect-your-move/file-a-complaint This company can not go on doing this to so many customers.

    Delivered this way. Ruined.

Minneapolis moving services are some of the most expensive anywhere I've experienced. I hope that simply means that MN companies pay their labor well. We paid $1365 + $180 tip (optional, but come on) for a 3-man crew at $260/hr (2-hour minimum), and we obviously also provided snacks and drinks (they declined breakfast). For comparison, in San Francisco it was $250/hr for 5 men. The rate was with both the weekday discount and winter pricing. Weekend would have been $285/hr for 3 men, and $345 for 4 men. There was no trip fee. Robert, in particular was incredible; he moved a 6 drawer dresser down a tight stairwell alone. They needed to remove the front door at one point, but did so without issue. They also were happy to use our own furniture pads and plastic wrap (leftover from a cross-country move). At one point, they had to back the huge truck through the alley on icy ground, and had no problems. Also, it was easy to provide them inventory by email, and easy to reach them by phone. Lots of moving companies were annoying to contact, which is partly why we chose this one. One a few minor issues: one piece of furniture was shedding pieces of wood. I think they were reinforcements put on by previous owners. I didn't even know they were there, and it doesn't seem to have affected the furniture. They also forgot a couple of items in the yard, including a big smoker we had to move on our own. It's partly my fault, I told them we were good to go. Also, we were made to sign a lot of paperwork, and at various points it was for things like "you confirm that nothing is broken and everything has arrived" and, like, it's weeks later and I'm still unpacking, there is no way I would have known for sure. It's fine, because so far we have had no issues, but if someone did have issues it might feel like being strong-armed via contract. The guys in the truck were just doing their jobs, so it's the process that is problematic more than anything. We would use these guys again!

My brother-on-law moved 3 trailers full of stuff, going back and forth from Hugo to Blaine before they even got to my house the first time, we all left at the same time. I think they were intentionally slow so they could charge us 4x's the amount quoted to me for an entire day (which is only 4 hours for them). They also broke multiple items, even with their "insurance" I was not reimbursed for anything. I also had to have them correct the contract 5 times before they actually got it correct. This company is horrible, if I could give them negative stars I would. This company is so crooked they are a circle! Response: your crew did not take an unpaid lunch break, it was included in the time they added to my bill at the end. They also very much pressure me to tip them because, as they put it, "This company does not pay us very well." Not only was I quoted roughly $1500, and it ended up costing me almost $5K for the service, I ended up tipping them because they know where I live and I didn't want anything to happen to my wife, and your crew took more breaks than they actually worked. Regardless of what you say, your company is crooked, incompetent, and needs to be put out of business. My next report is to the BBB!

There were a few things that were not great about this move and collectively makes me not recommend them. 1) They were an hour late and didn't call. I had to call them to see if they were still coming. 2) They brought to small of a truck and seem to think that I had too much stuff for a one bedroom. We had to take two trips and they try to charge me for the exccess time on the highway plus their members breaks. When I brought it up the mover said "oh yeah I forgot." I heard this quite a lot later. 3) I was quoted 3 to 5 hours in email for my job. They tried to charge me for 9, including the above. When I brought up that I was quoted 3-5 hours they told me they would have never quoted me that even though it was provided to me in writing. I told them how much furniture and clothing I had when I called to quote so it shouldn't have been a surprise for this or the truck size. 4) My bathroom cabinet was broken in the move. I didn't love it so I wasn't sad about it. The mover said that I would get reimbursed for this. He, again, forgot when I initially got the total at the end of the move and I had to remind them a couple times to ensure I got reimbursed. I did eventually get reimbursed for it. 5) I asked the movers, as I was leaving my apartment, to meet them at the house if they wanted me to stay until they had packed everything up. They said no, that I could go ahead and they would meet me down at my house. When I came back to the apartment later that night they actually left a headboard and footboard in the hallway that didn't make it on the truck. Again he said he "forgot" the item in the hallway. When I called the next day they did send the same movers out to pick it up and were going to coordinate with me to drop it off later that day. No one ever called and I had to call them the coordinate for delivery the following day. If this place could get it together it could be decent but for now I wouldn't recommend them.

After being showed the materials to be moved, he didn't make any notes about the items to be moved, yet he gave me a quote. and I agreed on the price. When I talked with the owner Nick about the method of payment, he absolutely refused to accept a cashier's check. He was concerned about the check bouncing. I had to explain to him how cashier's checks worked. On the day of the move, they showed up in a Uhaul, one guy was late, and two of the 3 guys showed up smelling of alcohol. I walked them through the items that we had agreed that were to be moved. They told me that they were on a two hour schedule and some of my things would not be moved. Explained that I was simply paying to have my things moved, I didn't have control over how smart they worked. They called their owner Nick who was extremely unprofessional, apparently the young man who gave me the quote had mistakenly failed to list many of my items. (remember he didn't write anything down during the walk through and had just made up an incomplete list. Even though he had not been present during the walk through, and have not seen for himself what the items to be moved, he swore his employee had not made a mistake,. I tried to reason with him,but he would not relent. I was only going to get 2 hours of work regardless of how fast his crew worked. Well, what kind of work do you think you might get from workers who are inebriated? These guys worked like zombies for two hours and of course didn't get the job completely done, and I was left with a house full of furniture. Nick showed up to view the proceedings, and only made matters worse. Zero people skills. Unwilling to take responsibility for his mistakes. No concern for customer satisfaction. All he was concerned about was getting his money. Because I needed to move right away, I was forced to hire them again to come back the the next day to complete the job. Two guys showed up. One of them screamed like a little girl when he saw a spider in the basement. He immediately got on the phone to ask Nick to cancel the job. Nick wanted the money, so he told the guy over the phone to go back to work. I had to get a broom to scare away the spider (which by the way, I never saw) before he would go back to work. Later, he called Nick again because he thought he saw a mouse turd on the coffee table. I had to use my finger to show him it was just ash. This would have been funny if it wasn't happening to me. Save yourself from this comedy-drama train wreck. Find a more reputable company.
