When the completely separate person I had hired cancelled last minute to hang my new 77 inch TV, Eric relieved my fears of missing the Knicks game and said he could hang the TV for me, no problem. When my friend who was helping me unload was having trouble putting together the 2 new beds for my exhausted, 84 year old Mom, and Sister were supposed to sleep on Eric once again relieved my stress and said he could do it. Eric's co-worker did not talk much but worked very hard and was quite pleasant. I highly recommend Big Strong Back to safely, economically to move your cherished possessions and make it a pleasant experience. Eric is as big as a Bull, is a super happy guy and smiled the entire 13 hours. Thanks for making one of the most stressful day's in a person's life into a very smooth move and experience. Cheers Eric for doing the right thing and I could not trust anyone more than him with my lifelong possessions.

I hired Zolar Moving to unload my rental truck in Ithaca on a Saturday at noon. By 1pm, I had left several unanswered phone calls at the only phone number I had for Zolar Moving (the one that is listed online) asking where their movers where. By 2pm, I had given up hope of them ever showing up and decided to go for a hike. They called me at 2:30pm saying they had just finished a job and were ready to head over to my apartment. No sign of apology for being 2.5 hours late and failing to return any of my calls. In fact, when I said I had just gone on a hike and might not be able to get back until 4pm, they told me they couldn't do that late and I'd have to wait until Monday. I decided it was better to unload the truck and abandoned my plans to hike. But they never apologized or remotely acted like they cared about me at all. I got back from the hike at the same time the movers showed up. A number of them were smoking cigarettes. The lead mover was particularly rude to me, my family, and the landlord (who happened to be there at the time). The movers punched a big hole in the wall of the entry hallway while trying to get the couch into the house. It was a tight fit, and there might be no way to get it in without damaging the wall somewhat. But the movers never showed any sign of remorse, only barely saying "our owner can fix this no problem". It sounded like this sort of thing happens a lot to Zolar Moving.

I lucked out with Reliable Movers - not only were they responsive and willing to book me from out of state for a move-in to a place with multiple sets of stairs, when they arrived they were helpful, friendly, and even prevented some damage that would have been done because of the way my outgoing movers packed my truck. They took great care with all of my items, got everything to exactly where I asked it to be placed even though I was stuck outside with the truck providing information, and got it all done in record time. The crew that showed up on move-in day were about twenty minutes early, after checking in with me via phone and text. Everyone was helpful and courteous. This was an excellent moving experience and I will be hanging on to Reliable's contact information for my eventual move to another location. The price for unloading into my new home was great, especially given the stairs involved. No one likes to make furniture go up narrow stairs - Reliable's crew made it happen quickly with a clearly practiced pace.

Unfortunately, this company does not work. My experience with Monica at Strong Hands LLC as well as Justin and Danielle from The Clean Team--has been a garish, Aligherian nightmare one that I imagine even Dante would've rejected. In the beginning, I was told that Strong Hands LLC's subsidiary, The Clean Team, would assist me with my move in three parts. Given my moving needs, I was told my move would require a "pre-clean" day, scheduled for Saturday February 11th, a "pack + move" scheduled for Monday, February 13th, and a "post move-out deep cleaning day" scheduled for Tuesday February 14th, 2023. We all reviewed the images of my studio and agreed to carry out the move over those three days. The contract was written by Strong Hands LLC and agreed to by me, the one who hired them. Nothing promised was delivered. Danielle did call me to let me know she was happy I had found another company to do the move so, should you also choose to look, elsewhere, your business will not be missed. I've attached photos of the apartment, the contract and communication indicating that there were no issues in moving forward with the move until it was time to actually do the job. Shame on you Strong Hands LLC and The Clean Team for refusing to do your job in the eleventh hour, inconveniencing me simply because you did not want to work and imbuing what has otherwise been a lovely moving journey with unprofessionalism, poor value service, unresponsiveness, incompetence, neglect, disrespect and blatantly wanton ableist disregard. Shame on you.

It took this crew almost an entire day just to load the truck (the truck was too small, as well). I moved from Cortland to Ithaca if half the time with the same household goods by the EJ Fish (a very professional company that I highly recommend) for far less money. We had them pack for us, which was another mistake. Over half the boxes they packed were unlabeled, boxes were mixed, the contents just dumped into boxes seemingly randomly.

First the positive…read more To my knowledge Big Red Shipping Services is the only service that can actually come to your dorm room to take away your boxes. This is a significant positive and may mean that you will still want to use them despite the many negatives. Negatives. 1. The place is student run and the response to phone calls and emails is sketchy at best. 2. If you have ever used a moving company, this is going to be very different. 3. The web portal is very rudimentary and it is hard to know what you are ordering. In fact because there is essentially no explanation you will most likely not get what you were expecting. 4. If you order packing, they will be very confused. Packing usually means the movers bring the boxes and you point and they pack. Big Red Shipping expects that you bought all of the boxes in advance and know where everything goes. Almost no one would ever correctly guess the number of boxes that they need. So the onus is on you to over buy boxes. If you don't have enough boxes, it is not going to storage. My suggestion. Only use BRSS if you are happy to pack your own stuff well in advance and only need movers to put it into storage. The packing service isn't what anybody actually would want.
