    Definitely a budget moving company... the price was great, as was the setup at first. However, when the movers arrived they questioned why I didn't have a complete listing of all my items, which I was told I didn't have to do specifically. They moved everything in the end, but weren't very careful with many things. Only broke one table, but scratched up some other items.

    Thank you NYC Great Movers for a seamless move to our new home! I highly recommend this company. Even with some last minute add in items they were flexible and accommodating. Everyone was professional and friendly!

    Really love that the movers are wearing masks, using sanitizer, and are respectful of our belongings, walls, and floors. The team with Dmitry made every cent worth it. They were able to easily navigate hallways, elevators, people traffic and everything in between. They navigated a difficult parking situation at our destination point with grace and understanding. The price was fair (affordable), clear cut price structure (transparent), and the service was impeccable. If you're in area, I can personally say 10/10 I recommend you give NYC Great Movers a call. Thanks for making our move from Queens to Manhattan (~5 ish miles) so easy!

    Pros movers! The move isn't over but so far so good!

    These guys are fast and efficient!! They showed up a little early to start getting set up and didn't waste any time getting to work. They're a well-oiled machine with the experience to know their way around everything. Guys were carrying full wardrobes on their back down 3 flights of stairs! Why they didn't get 5-Stars: Their system for watching the truck is a little difficult for me. Normally I can tidy up the apartment and get whatever last-minute things done that I need, but I needed to watch the truck to make sure nothing is stolen so I couldn't do any work.

    Reliable company!

    I highly recommend this company! I used them in December of 2020 and couldn't have been more pleased with the service. I moved on the first of the month which is obviously the busiest day of the month for a moving company. My movers were running a little behind schedule that day, but called me to keep me posted on their progress. They were extremely professional and apologetic. When they did arrive to my apartment, the three movers worked ESPECIALLY hard to get everything done in a timely manner . I couldn't believe how quickly they worked! They were also very careful with my possessions and even wrapped things I didn't properly wrap myself. On top of that, they were incredibly friendly and polite. The movers also did a great job of getting my furniture up my new three story walkup. I live in a building with a NARROW stairwell, and despite the challenge, the men were able to complete the job without complaint. I have actually noticed some of my neighbors' movers having a much bigger issue on the stairs, which is what prompted me to write this review lol. I feel bad that I don't remember the names of the three gentlemen who helped me, because they did such a great job and I'd like to give them recognition. This company is fair and reliable, and I'll certainly use them again. Worth every penny!

    Pathway to the entry kept clear without asking!

    Ask the Community - Great Movers

    Do you cover a Smithtown to Ronkonkoma move?

    Yes we do.

    I have a local move with very heavy furniture and high value items ? Struggling to decide on a moving company

    NYC Great movers did a really great job with my furniture when I moved last year. They were fast and careful!

    Do you service in Hoboken,NJ?

    Yes we do.

    Do you guys pack things up or just move them?

    They pack things, break them, and then take your money. It's a great business model.

    Do you service Westchester County?

    Yes we do. You can call 718.600.3482 for an estimate

    Would you do a move from NYC to Allentown, Pa? Are you available August 19?

    Absolutely you can full out the form here for an estimate https://nycgreatmovers.com/request-a-quote/

    Is the wrapping of furniture and couch included on the quote? Do you provide the wrapping blankets and the wrapping plastic? Thanks

    Yes, blankets and plastic wrap were included.

    Do they do out of state moving also?

    Yup! I hired them to do my out of state move from Brooklyn, NY, to north of Boston in MA.

    Do they take apart furniture and reassemble at destination?

    I can say yes with regards to beds (it was the only item that required disassembly & reassembly).

    Are boxes and moving materials included if paying for packing and unpacking service?

    If you choose packing service then yes however we do not unpack boxes at destination. We only offer packing services not unpacking.

    I'm moving from Tuckahoe in Westchester to Riverdale in the Bronx.Im only taking a recliner ,a Tv,and an Airconditioner,and clothes that's it.Anyone know how much they would charge?

    300-500$ probably

    I see many people having bad experiences tipping movers in general. How much they should be tip if moving you within New York City? I thought it was a gratitude accordingly to a job well done.

    Usually the gratuity is 20% of the total bill divided among the crew.

    I've used Clutter's multiple pickup /drop-off service, and I want to be very clear: every single…read moremover I've worked with has been exceptional. They are professional, efficient, mostly careful with belongings, and consistently helpful. If I could hire the movers themselves, I would; they are the strongest part of this company. Unfortunately, the claims/ and most customer service experience is the complete opposite, and it has reached a point where I would hesitate to use Clutter again. My original (close-out) appointment was cancelled because Clutter attempted a second authorization on my card without notifying me despite the fact that all fees had already been paid. I keep my cards locked due to past fraud, so the lack of communication directly caused the cancellation. When I contacted the claims department, the responses I received were unprofessional, templated, and dismissive. Instead of acknowledging this, the representative by the name of Dayane responded with, "I'm sorry that you felt the need to..." - a phrase that is inappropriate, unprofessional, and shifts blame onto the customer rather than addressing the company's actions. To make matters worse, when the issue was escalated, the next representative, used the phrase "from your perspective." As someone who has worked in customer service for most of my career, I know the difference between neutral language and dismissive, liability‑shielding language. Phrases like "your perspective" or "you felt the need to" are not neutral - they minimize the actual issue and place the burden back on the customer. This is not how I was trained to speak to customers, even in difficult situations, and it's concerning to see it used repeatedly as part of their standard script. To be fair, Karoll did offer to schedule a call, and I appreciated the willingness to follow up. But the fact that it took escalation to receive a basic level of professionalism only highlights the inconsistency and lack of training within the claims/customer service team. Clutter has a great concept and outstanding movers, but the claims/customer service department needs serious improvement. Until that happens, the customer service experience - not the movers - is the reason I would think twice before using Clutter again. BTW - A clothing rack and several of my bins were returned broken

A about 3 foot x 2 foot x 1 foot (approx) ceramic and metal sculpture was included in the move as they had appropriately and successfully moved the piece before with NY. As appropriate, the contract included foam encasement of the rather delicate sculpture that only has a few attachment sites to the metal frame (a bike) and multiple ceramic figures with arms, legs, hands, and a sun for a head. Moises packers used about 6-10 loosely folded pieces of paper (newsprint sized - daily NY post not NY times sized paper) around the sculpture, and another 2 ish pieces sort of crumpled around the top (see photo of just opened box w top and top packaging visible.) deliverers took same photo, I assume, since they snapped shots at the same time. In addition, the "box" was folded around the top of the sculpture, which (originally) had sun rays poking through DURING SHIPMENT. As is visible in a photo, some of the sun rays broke off (big surprise), and the rest suffered obvious damage and chipping. Of the 3 ceramic pieces originally attached to the bike frame, two broke off completely and suffered major damage. All figures lost some body parts, most lost fingers and parts of / damage to feet. Notice severe breakage in photo of the broken off figures in photo. Other items also came out damaged, just less valuable and more like cracks, stress fractures, and broken shelving / separators in , for example, a large lucite unit (2ftx3ishftx4ft). Also packing was clearly more intended to create chargeable packing volume than protection. Dishes that were already in smaller manageable boxes were repacked into a huge (now super heavy) box putting the dishes together (still have to check breakage at bottom of huge triple box) with about a foot of mostly open space at top (chargeable space!!!) and a few barely folded (literally 2 or 3) pieces of newsprint on top to "protect" against vertical movement during transport. And an echo dot was the ONLY item contained in a regular 1ft x 1ft x 2ft box - with a little folded paper again for company. And boxes going to 3 locations were supposed to be dropped off at ups, where ups repackaged (at our cost) and shipped (at our cost. Because from ups they went to 3 separate locations, but all went together from starting point to ups, we were charged $500 base charge for each final location - even though moishe's only took a single trip to ups to drop off the about 8 pre-marked for location boxes. DO NOT TRUST MOISHE's - AND THEY WONT EVEN REVERSE SHIPPING CHARGES AFTER ALL THE DAMAGE, INAPPROPRIATE PACKING TO OVERCHARGE SPACE, OVER CHARGE TO UPS... THEY ARE NEITHER RELIABLE NOR RESPONSIVE TO CONCERNS.

This time around I didn't price shop- I have had good experiences in the past with West Side Movers and wanted to stick with a company I have come to trust. Matt easily generated a quote based on a list of my items. COIs for my current and new building were generated within hours of booking my move. Vadim, Stevo, and the driver showed up on time just before 0800. Over the past two moves I have accumulated way too much crap...but they kept good humor throughout. Stevo masterfully disassembled and reassembled a horrific ikea bed like it was nothing! They handled my bulky sectional with ease. They got my monstrous 8 foot long credenza in the perfect spot.
