    moving is not easy. These men made it streamlined. Thank you. These gentlemen are truly exceptional. I wholeheartedly endorse them. I will certainly utilize their services again, given the outstanding care they showed towards my possessions and the top-notch quality provided.

    Gentle movers moved our furniture from here in Charleston to our home in Spotslvania, Va.

    I used them to move some furniture back into our house after having the floors redone. They did a great job. Very professional.

    I was generous in giving this 2 stars. I know my experience should not be a reflection of the…read moreentire company because I read many great reviews before feeling confident in choosing them. However, my experience was not so great. For starters, many items such as glass lamps, glass tables, and high dollar framed photo did not even get "wrapped" or "packed". They were just set into the truck and later set into my storage unit. The movers were reminded that items such as a living room rug and framed photo were to be packed, yet they were trying to rush out so quickly that they tried to leave so many items behind. The process was slowed down due to phone usage and standing around/waiting for direction. Not to mention it took THREE movers 6 hours to move a 'mostly packed' 1 bedroom apartment into the moving truck. I had everything ready, sorted out and most packed and it still took 6 hours. Which resulted in having to unload the items the next day. I can only hope that my items were properly taken care of when I wasn't looking because what I did see was not very pleasing. My things definitely took a little beating. No matter if your furniture is high dollar or not, movers should handle YOUR furniture/items with the same care. My bill came to over $2600 but after speaking with the manager, even he realized that took entirely too long for 3 movers and took 2 hours off my bill which brought it to $2100. It was still high for the quality of the move that I received especially it being a mostly packed one bedroom apartment, but sometimes you have to take a loss. Like I said, I do think the company is probably great. I just didn't luck out with the best experience.

    THEY'RE THIEVES!!! They stole my iPad Pro and all of my Crate & Barrel dishwares and silverwares…read moreand who know what else they stole. It seems like I have way less stuff and have to buy new stuff for dining after the move. They charged $2400 to move a 1 bedroom materials for 8 miles. For that type price, they didn't even move stuff into appropriate rooms in the new apartment, they just left everything in the living room, plus they stole a lot stuff. I asked them to put them in a storage unit overnight and they declined. They absolutely took an advantage of me. THEY STOLE A LOT OF MATERIALS! Had to buy new plates and everything, to this day I still can't afford to replicate what I used to have. [I'm not a mover and I have no interest in making a bad review for competition purpose.]

Although U-Pack…read moredid send us a referral # for that labor service they don't supply, we went with a different company. For the U-Pack container delivery, all went as planned. The container was dropped off exactly when they said. The driver explained some requirements and who to call for questions. The pick up after loading went exactly as expected. The driver confirmed the load footage, I signed, he locked the container and was gone all within 20-30 minutes. The container arrived at the receiving station within the 7-10 day delivery period, and the station called me to schedule the delivery. We had 3 days to unload, and they picked up the container, just as expected. They have that connect and roll process down pat! So quick. The only suggestion for improvement I have would be updated equipment in the container. We struggled with the end bar braces both in set up and tear down. One worked, one had trouble and took a lot of man-handling. Also, the loading ramp is heavy and not very wide. It would be nice if these had fold up hydraulic lifts instead of the ramps. Or a wider, lighter ramp. Still, all went well and the communication was great. I would use again if needed. Thank you U-Pack!

The local number back in Washington was a little gruff, maybe they were just having a bad day. The move was easier than I'd expected and there were no hidden fees, overall this was a very pleasant experience. One suggestion - give a better window of time for the pickup and drop off. The window given was a whole day, which made it harder to coordinate help with loading and unloading.

Tonya was so respectful and accomodating with my booking and also when I had to make a change.

They are THE ONLY moving company that I would recommend. Rarely are you this pleased with a service provider. Bravo!

    *** DO NOT USE****…read more I hired this moving company to pack two PODS for a cross country move. I wanted to hire a "professional" packing company to maximize space and fit my belongings in the PODS. I had two major downsides with this company. The owner and the packing job. The packing of the pods was very unprofessional. They left approximately 3 FEET of open space at the top of each pod. This allowed items to shift during the move and alot of stuff not to fit. I had to spend two days repacking the PODS to fit my stuff. Towards the end of them packing when they realized 1/4 of my stuff was not going to fit, one of the workers said " this is why I always pack". So essentially I could of saved the money and just packed myself for the unprofessional packing job they did. The major issue is the owner and lies. During the move my $2000 king bed frame was damaged when the workers left it free standing on my driveway. Luckily I was outside to witness when the wind blew it over to crack the wood and knock metal pieces off of it. The worker immediately contacted Dezzy ? The owner and informed him of what happened. Dezzy told me on the phone that it was "an act of nature" and they are not responsible for items that they are not "actively" moving. The guys left it unsecured on the driveway to make space in the pods. I advised Dezzy that it was not even wrapped in a moving blanket. Dezzy agreed to cover the damages once I advised him of that. I heard him tell the worker on speakerphone after that "they need to wrap everything because since it wasn't wrapped he did not have an excuse not to pay" . Anyways his word does not mean much because it has been 4 months and they never paid the insurance claim. They also have not responded to multiple emails about the matter and I am out the money. AVOID and pay alittle more for better service!

Nothing broken, damaged or missing. All aspects of their work was top notch and made what can be a stressful event into just another couple of busy days for us. All member of the move day teams were respectful and detail oriented in their work. all items that were taken apart for the move-out were properly reassembled at the move-in location. Large items were properly and securely protected and wrapped for the move. The team did not damage walls, floors or any other part of the move-out or move-in homes. Walk throughs were performed on both ends of the move before and after the loading/unloading. The teams were on time on both ends of the move and super accommodating for any questions or request we had. Initial estimate walk through was thorough, and pricing quote was honest and fair. Signed contract pricing was honored and no surprise gottchas at the end of the move. The company is fully licensed and insured for the work they contract to perform, and they complete that work without any drama or surprises in a professional manner. From the office employees to the onsite movers, this company and its team are excellent at what they do. Shout out to Corey, Emmet and Nick for your hard work and support on our move. I highly recommend Positive Moves without hesitation if you are in need of services they provide.

    The reviews for this company were outstanding, so I chose them without hesitation. Unfortunately,…read morethere were many serious problems with the quality of their work. (1) John did not come in advance to see what needed to be moved, or to give me a final estimate. He came AFTER the move to tell me that they couldn't move the piano and that I needed to get someone else to do it. As a result, it was another two months till the piano was finally moved! (2) In addition, the estimate he gave me over the phone was almost doubled by the time the move was finished. I paid only $3,000 less for an in-city move, than for the interstate move we made the following year. (3) The workers were not supervised. They obviously hadn't been trained to move fragile antique furniture. Three valuable pieces were damaged, one a delicate 200+ year-old corner cabinet. The worker had just thrown a pad over it and didn't even secure it. I honestly couldn't believe my eyes. John did get the pieces fixed, although the handle of a beautiful Asian cabinet is still missing. John was a nice person. The workers worked at the speed of light. (Too fast, I think in retrospect.) But I regret having chosen this company.
