    Do NOT use this company - avoid at all costs. I've lived in NYC for over 12 years and I have NEVER had such a horrible experience moving! Not only were they scamming, but the person in charge cursed at me and blocked me. They blatantly overcharged me, and when I called to ask about it the person in charge called me a "c*nt" (?!), yelled at me on the phone, hung up, and blocked me. I have messages from him (prior to the move) saying I would be charged by the half hour and yet I was charged over the end of my move time with no explanation.  I had someone with me who SAW the movers end their work and leave my apartment, as well as time stamps showing time ended/paid and them leaving. (Which this man ignored.) I had tipped 20% and was super kind to the movers - this company clearly scams its clients, the manager actually blocked me when I called to point out the mistake in what they charged me.  I have never had such a horrendous experience with movers. Additionally, I was told the movers would call me 15 minutes PRIOR to their arrival time, as I need time to travel from work and couldn't travel & wait an entire hour. Instead they texted me when they were already there, ahead of the allotted time slot. When I asked about this the person cursed at me and did not listen. This company is definitely scamming their clients and I am appalled by their behavior to a paying customer.  I tipped 20% on the (OVERCHARGED) amount and was kind to the movers, yet was cursed at and berated? A friend called and was told AFTER they complete her move they would Venmo me the $55 that was owed. They never did this. Then they told her someone would call me about this. Nope - they just 100% ignored and blocked.

    My husband and I were feeling confident that we had chosen a good moving company, based on the 5-star reviews. Unfortunately, that changed during the move, as we became very disappointed. After a series of events, we felt like we had been overcharged and expressed our extreme disappointment with Will, the "decision maker" of the company, who, in return, attempted to blame us for his company's neolithic incompetence. Based on what we know now, we would never hire this company for these reasons: 1) They did not come prepared for the size of our move, arriving with a truck not big enough to fit everything, even though they knew that our old apartment was 350 sq ft. This resulted in them having to send another truck and crew to move the rest of our things, adding an hour and a half, with us waiting to our time. The first truck and crew arrived at 8:45am, with the second truck and crew finally departing at 6pm. Will said they charged us from 9:30-5p, giving us an hour and a half complimentary; however, there were two of us, not one, that had to wait, one at each location. 2) You would think that a professional moving company in NYC would know the logistics of navigating the streets while moving people in and out of their apartments. Their crews consisted of 3 men, which you pay for; however, one of them stayed seated in the truck so they could avoid getting a ticket. The one in the truck could've helped carry boxes from the building to the truck while keeping an eye out for any parking cops. We never agreed to pay for someone to sit in the truck or to pay for inexperienced labor. We later discovered, the crew was fairly new to the business. With all due respect to the crew, this discovery provided an explanation as to why they, demonstrating a noticeable degree of uncertainty, moved slowly. However, this was at our expense, which further added to the time we were being charged. My husband helped them the whole time, in order to minimize time charged. A professional company would never send out an inexperienced crew without having at least one being experienced, providing training, while supervising the move; however, the experienced guy sat in the truck. 3) When my husband arrived with the second crew, they found all of our things from the first truck load in the lobby of our new apartment building and the first crew was nowhere in sight. Our stuff had been LEFT UNATTENDED! I had wondered why it was taking the first crew so long to come up with our stuff to our new apartment. When the second crew arrived, I learned from them that first crew had LEFT to go to another job, in which they failed to inform me, leaving our stuff unattended (and that was at 4pm). 4) Our boxes and furniture were not handled with care. We found a foot print and tear in our sofa and things that were neatly packed in boxes, had been completely emptied out and thrown into other boxes. The blame game was attempted again, by saying that we we had not packed very well, which is curious, because the first thing that Will said when he had come into our apartment was that we were among the few clients they've had that actually HAD things packed well, with everything in a box and labelled. The only thing they had to do was move the boxes, along with the wrapped furniture out of the apartment and into their truck. 5) Will would say that he gave us another team for free when we would have been charged double. Isn't it interesting on the amount of time that it took for them to do a 1-bd apartment (350 sq. feet) with 2 trucks and crews? If they had had a larger truck with an experienced crew, then the move would not have taken nearly as long as it did. My husband and I moved our studio apartment that was a 5-flight walk-up, BY OURSELVES, in 5 hours on the SAME STREET with a van, which required several trips back and forth. If you are going to be moving and you are going to use these guys, then you better take notes and LOTS of pictures, because sadly, you cannot trust this company.

    items in the blue is what we ended up moving & highlighted ones in yellow are some of the few items that i had to transport myself later..

    unfortunately, using movers for the first time and going with these guys was not the right move. i was told that the rate was $275/2hrs & $69/ 30mins after the 2hrs. first of all, they were unprofessional regarding charges. i checked beforehand that the movers were bringing a mattress bag & wasn't told that it would be charged. my friend also used these movers and he was NOT charged for the mattress bag. during the time of the move, one of the movers got a call from someone at the office telling him to charge me $7 mattress bag. before the day of the move, i made sure everything was packed & grouped together to make the move more efficient. i actually helped wrap up the big furniture with blankets etc. on the day of the move to speed up the process because the guys were stalling. i moved out of my tiny 1bd and needed help moving: 1 mattress, 1 floyd bed frame (3wooden panels that are easy to transport), ikea standing mirror, ikea desk, standing desk top, tv stand, side table, 1x large, medium, small suitcases, and 7 boxes. honestly, this could've been done EASILY in 2hours with my friends but i didn't want to put them through the trouble. now i know for next time. i anticipated / feared that the movers will try to take longer than 2 hrs. the two guys didn't even end up moving all my things because they were going so slow. i had to tell them to leave some items behind because, at that point, i wanted only the big furniture out so that we can be done within the two hour time frame. but of course...even though my new place was 1 block south & 2 blocks east of my previous apt (a 4min drive WITH traffic & going incredibly lol), the movers took 13mins to get there even though i saw them leave before me. to top it all off, the person in charge at the office THREATENED me when i expressed my concerns for being charged $69 extra+$7 for the mattress bag for ending FIVE minutes past the two hour mark. the guy threatened me saying that if i didn't pay that amount, he'd make my friend (who was also moving around the same time as me) would be charged. let me be clear, the movers got to my apt at 9:30a but started actually moving things around 9:40am & the whole move definitely could've been done in an hr & half at most if they were efficient. in the end they charged me $351 for two hrs + 5 mins "overtime" of work + $7 last min plastic mattress bag charge. honestly, i understand that they're a business that needs to make profit, but i wish they had a better business model. if they did the job efficiently, i would've tipped them really well, would've hired them again in the future & would recommend them to friends & colleagues (which would benefit their business more). wasn't the case and i hope this isn't the case for you too.

    I used them for a small move, some boxes, plants and a table. They were friendly and on time. Their price is fair. I will use them again

    This is the first time I'm writing review in comparison, but I think it will help many people to…read morechose the best service. We used to working before with NYC messenger company. They were not always good, especially recently- messenger was late, a few times had the wrong address etc., but this time it was totally unacceptable from the beginning - the guy on the phone was rude, disrespectful and not even letting me finish giving him the address, was constantly interrupting. His tone was like he's the only one in the whole world who can pick up and deliver the 3lb bag from the center of Manhattan to Manhattan Downtown :-) So I just hung up to not waste my time and tried LightSpeed Express. LightSpeed Express is fast, respectful, responsible, professional, friendly. Arrived and delivered so fast, I didn't believe. Delivery guy is smart, friendly and professional. Would like to know his name. Guy on the phone, Pablo, is very detail oriented and focused on client's needs (unlike the NYC messenger one). Price is same as NYC Messenger, BTW. The best part is that our client, who received delivery, was super happy about their service as well. Used their service on Friday January 24 for delivery from Flatiron area to Church street Manhattan. Will use LightSpeed Delivery again and recommend to everyone.
