The crates stack up very neatly, unlike cardboard boxes, and are much easier for the movers to move. The drop-off and pick-up were punctual and flexible. We originally booked for two weeks - took one week to pack, two days to unpack. BoxUp was able to pick up the crates early and get them out of our way. Reuben did the drop-off and pick-up and was very professional. BoxUp also conveniently offers other packing material to be delivered with the crates. The green wrap was perfect for small pottery pieces, and the bubblewrap was great to protect art. Looking forward to booking BoxUp again when we have to move!

I called the Movers and they were totally supportive and made it work, no extra charges or fees... I would definitely hire them again...

Five stars, great service. Also, the sales manager, Eli, and the person answering Yelp, Ellyor, were super quick to respond and so helpful.

AVOID!! Look at the dates of the positive reviews, they are all from 2022. As of 2024, this company…read moreshould be avoided at all costs. I hired Diamond Hands Moving for a move in August, and it was one of the worst decisions I've made. Despite their promises of quality service, my experience was nothing short of a disaster. The crew was poorly prepared, using only one dolly at a time and moving boxes around aimlessly instead of efficiently. It was clear they were more focused on dragging out the hours than on providing quality service. From the packing of my apartment to the delivery of the boxes to the new spot - there was nothing organized or efficient about this move. I understand that we are all trying to make it in this world, but this was an experience I do not want anyone else to have. Communication with the team was ineffective, and my specific packing needs were ignored. I felt like I was taken advantage of, and the company's response to my concerns was dismissive. When I voiced my frustrations several times, they offered a paltry $210 refund (the move ended up costing over $1,300 when I was quoted half of that) and $200 credit for a FUTURE move, which does nothing to compensate for the terrible experience I endured. Then, when I said that I would still be writing a review, they said "it would complicate the process, and we would cancel the check." Shady much? Additionally, I checked their online reviews and was shocked to see a pattern of recent negative feedback, including clearly copied and pasted reviews on other platforms. It's evident that I'm not alone in my disappointment--others have had similar experiences with this company. Save yourself the headache and look elsewhere for your moving needs. I have seen several other moving companies move new tenants into my building with ease and efficiency. Diamond Hands Moving clearly lacks the professionalism and reliability that customers deserve. I will not be using their services again and strongly advise potential customers to think twice.

I have to move in a couple weeks. I need boxes in which to put stuff so I can have my stuff at my…read morenew place. I can't get these boxes by going by supermarkets, I need real boxes that have never been used. It's not me, it's my stuff - none of my things like to be anywhere where food, livestock or various sundries have been first. I have ordered from U-line in the past, but their shipping is outrageous, almost as much as the whole order. I did a little Google search and found suppliesformoving.com. At the time of the order, I had no idea they were in Brooklyn. The site is clean and all the information is readily accessible. One can guarantee that this website did not cost a lot of money, but it works. One of the best things about this company is that they have pre-prepared packages of boxes, tape, etc. divided by room and/or rooms which makes it a little easier. They have boxes for junk, boxes for tvs, boxes for lamps - are you following me here? They have supplies for moving - tape, blankets, plastic wrap, paper. So I go online and make my order (FREE shipping by the way on everything!) and expect it to come in a couple days according to the site. After the confirmation of sale is where it gets good. 30 minutes pass and I get a call from the company saying they can deliver today, the same day, in the late afternoon. OK. One hour later I get another call that they can deliver right now. Yes please. Approximately three hours after I ordered many, many boxes, they arrived in perfect shape. Having no idea this company was in Brooklyn, I guess I should consider myself lucky. The customer service was fantastic and the boxes have been working just fine. If you want quick, efficient service and if you want to get your supplies to pack and move in an instant, go to suppliesformoving.com.* ________________________ * If all of the bottoms of the boxes break while moving, damaging all of my kids' toys and my valuable possessions, I reserve the right to come back and be extremely agitated.

I ordered a print through Uprise Art Gallery and opted to get it framed through their framer,…read moreSkyframe. I was excited when I received the print and remarked on how well it was packaged for shipment. But when I unpacked the piece, the artwork was damaged. The top corner of the print had been bent/folded. I reached out to Uprise, and they had a new print framed and sent out so I could exchange it. The new framed print arrived in a timely manner....BUT it was not packed as safely, and the new print had a piece of debris/glue residue on the darkest part of the print. So, 2 months and 2 framed prints later, I'm still without a piece of art to hang. Uprise is sending me a single print in exchange for these 2 framed prints and refunded me the framing cost. I'll now find my own framer locally as I don't trust Skyframe. I feel bad for the artist who now has lost 2 prints from his 100 print run.

I got a photo of the framed piece after 3 weeks, but it was not positioned the way I had stated. And it was off center, which I mentioned. Another week and the positioning was closer, but it was STILL OFF CENTER. Good God, they're supposed to be "premier" framers... isn't having the artwork centered kinda like, #1?? Guess "premier" framers don't have to measure. BTW, no apology of any kind for the delay, not even a mention. At least they used the frame I chose. And they didn't damage the piece like happened to some other folks. Goody for that. Otherwise unprofessional and lame. I brought it to another framer I trust to fix it. Should have stayed with the tried and true. Good money after bad.

I continue to be very happy with the excellence of Big John's Moving. I recently moved more than…read more100 miles. They made a potentially complicated and messy move--with two pick-up locations prior to the final destination--seamless. It constantly amazes me how these strong guys can lift and navigate massive furniture--yet the same guys also delicately pack china and glassware. I had more than 150 boxes and there was not one broken item. Not one lost item. I trust them 100%. As far as the back story, since it had been several years since I moved, I decided to get more than one estimate. I knew I would have Big John's come over to provide an estimate, but some review-searching led me to some new players in moving. One of them had almost all 5-star reviews, which in retrospect is hard for anyone to pull off. Big John's came in and gave me an estimate and told me it would be a 2-day move. I then had the second moving company (the one with almost all 5-star reviews) come over. Their estimate was nearly half the cost of Big John's and they said they would do it in 1 day and with only 3 workers. I have had at least 4 or 5 people move me for years. Oftentimes it is 6 or 7 people. I mentioned this to the moving company representative more than once. I even said "I don't mind paying extra for another person." That is the truth. I would rather pay more and have an efficient and good move as opposed to a situation where the movers get exhausted halfway through the day. He told me their philosophy is that "any more than 3 people bump into each other." I have never witnessed movers bumping into each other before and I was skeptical. (It is clear to me now that their revenue model depends on having as few people as possible perform the moving job.) But I was blinded by the low estimate so I verbally agreed to hire them. When I told Big John's I was not using them, they called me back right away and were very professional but wanted to know why. I told them what I had been told by the second mover and Big john's said "you have really nice stuff, you know how careful we are." True. He also told me about some potential problems they could encounter on the road insofar as trucking laws. I also thought to myself that I did not want to be in a situation where three guys from the new moving company were coming to my place at 8am and unloading the truck at my new place at 11pm. That was a very real possibility. That was enough. I came to my senses and I hired Big John's. I later realized that the second mover was a very good salesperson--he had lots of emotional intelligence and came across as warm and caring and said all the right things--but there were far too many things that could go wrong. I reviewed the various email and texts and paper estimate and saw there were a lot of gray areas and contradictions in what I was being promised. After I cancelled with the second mover (almost three weeks before the actual move date) he started to show his true colors: he began calling, texting and emailing me repeatedly over several days. Managing his drama significantly added to my pre-move stress. I wish he had just bowed out gracefully. Instead, he was telling me about all the extra people he would bring in to move me (so much for his "3 people" philosophy) and how he would do the move "in 2 days, too," If I wanted. He would not let go of it. He kept behaving as if I had not cancelled. Even after I emailed him to re-state that I was cancelling, he kept going. He seemed perplexed that I would want to pay more for another mover. He never grasped the concept that I would be paying more for more...more services and for a company I have used a half a dozen time in the past. Not to mention a company that treats its workers well and does not expect them to work 12-14 hour days. On the day of the move, I was happy to see two guys I had used in the past, including the foreman. I really like the way Big John's has clear delineations of roles: there is a chief/foreman (who knows how to manage people), there are the guys who move the boxes, the guys who are great packers, the guys who wrap furniture, the guys who handle the tricky stuff (like my grandfather clock), the guy who tracks all / keeps inventory, and the guy who arranges and rearranges the truck as needed. This is why they don't "bump into each other." I see no reason for me to ever not use Big John's again. I mentioned this in my older review, but it is a rare thing when I enjoy paying a bill. But moving is so important and Big John's is so good, they make it worth it!
