I met Aaron Glick, the owner of Reliable Movers at a networking event in January 2026, and was…read moreimpressed by his enthusiasm for the business, his integrity, and his caring for customers. He really wanted to personally ensure that clients got their belongings moved safely for a fair price. When it came time, in August, to move everything out of my large bungalow, into a small two bedroom apartment, of course I chose Reliable Movers. Many of the well known moving companies had horror stories in the "1 star" reviews....didn't want to risk it! His foreman, Isaac, warned me how much stuff I had, and unfortunately DOUBLED Aaron's estimate; since I had a MASSIVE amount of files, books, unattended mending, in addition to furniture, pots & pans... basically enough for a family of 6!!!! Isaac's crew of 4 spent all Sunday wrapping everything in paper, and putting it in boxes safely. Delivered furniture and "stuff" to my small two bedroom apartment. and rented storage facility on Monday. Fun Fact!!! Don't use bubble wrap for things that you will store for a long time: unless your storage facility is totally climate controlled, you can get condensation inside the bubble wrap and it can get mold!!! The men maintained a great attitude, and were very respectful to this currently single woman. There were no unexpected up-charges, no holding my belongings hostage if didn't pay "said up-charges", like the horror stories I have heard about other movers. Everyone was very kind, even though I was quite over-whelmed and had trouble making decisions. It hurt my wallet to pay the adjusted amount, but the price was FAIR, given the amount of work the crew did. They literally worked from 8 am until 7 on Sunday, with only a break for water. Monday, moving day was the same, but I got them McD's breakfast sandwiches.... gotta provide some fuel for the men!!! In all, I'm grateful for the kindness, the expertise, the fairness, and the strong backs of these movers! Thanks Aaron for your great company.

Picture this, you decide to have your girlfriend move in with you but it's the day before the…read moreactual move and she hasn't booked movers yet. You are both in your mid 40s and neither of you are in any shape to move her whole apartment down three flights of stairs and back up three more. So you get off your overnight shift and start looking for movers. Two of the places you contact are booked, not surprising as it's the last days of July in Chicago. You happen across Reliable Movers and take the chance, sending them a project request. Lo and behold they have an opening the NEXT DAY due to a cancellation. They send you the hourly rate which is more than reasonable and immediately call them. Not only is the owner super nice on the phone but hilarious. In less than ten minutes we had an official quote, signed contract and deposit paid. The next morning you get a call before your start time of 9am stating the movers hit no traffic and are ready to start early. You head downstairs to move the cars which you blocked space for the truck because Rogers Park parking. The movers come upstairs and start wrapping up furniture and you head to the second location. When the truck pulls up again, you move your car again for the ease of the truck. The offload took less than an hour! All payments were taken quickly through Zelle. All stories aside, the movers and owner are amazing. They accommodated a late scheduled move and came in right at the quote price (minus the addtional charge for some boxes which I approved). If we ever move again, they are going to be my first call! Nice and early scheduled next time. :)

I called David right away and sent him detailed pictures of everything he needed to move for me. He said it wasn't a problem and quoted me $800 for a full truck. The guys showed up at 8:45am ready to go. They walked around and said "you have a lot of stuff...". I was worried because I heard that phrase before, then he said "we will get it moved quickly". I was relieved. They had everything loaded by 12pm. They went to go grab lunch and we're at our storage facility by 12:30. They were efficient and had everything loaded up into our storage unit by 1:30. I was very impressed with their Tetris skills. If you need movers, these are your guys! Fair, efficient, and had a smile the entire time. Thank you for the hassle free move. Will use them again!!

I cannot definitively say Movetastic was responsible, but the timing and circumstances surrounding…read morethe theft of over $12,000 worth of belongings from our storage unit raise serious concerns for us personally. Combined with the lack of accountability and overall experience, we no longer feel comfortable recommending them. At minimum, this experience highlighted how important trust, chain of custody, and security are during a move, and unfortunately we were left feeling deeply uneasy afterward.

This is the fourth time I've used Move-Tastic and if/when we move again, I'm definitely calling…read morethem first. Pros: *The online quote process is thorough and easy to use. *Need a question answered or quote changed? Super easy when calling the company. *With each move, the movers called prior to heading toward our move-out location and arrived within the quoted start-time range. *New for this move: I was pleasantly surprised to receive a text link to track the movers' location before they arrived and when the trucks were traveling from the move-out location to the move-in location. And the tracker worked! *The movers worked quickly and efficiently. *With each move, there's at least one quiet worker and one super friendly/enthusiastic worker--and they're all incredibly kind despite the heavy lifting. Shoutout to this move's guys: JT, Roderick, Nate, Hank, and Nicolas! Cons: Just one: If you like the Green Bay Packers, you might be offended by one of their (hilarious) trucks.

We had everything taken apart and they came in and wrapped everything in plastic and loaded it onto their truck. At the new location they had to go up quite a few steps and too tight turns for the bedrooms and they made it look easy. They were absolutely a pleasure to work with.

I reached out to several other companies back in February when I purchased a very heavy, vintage stove that needed to be picked up and delivered. I received a wide range of quotes, Maciej fell in the middle of the range. What won me over and has given a customer forever was his empathy and respect. I got sick immediately after getting the quotes. After 4 days of being in a delirious Covid brain fog, I sent emails to every company letting them know I wouldn't be able to get back to them immediately and the move wouldn't happen until around the end of March. The other companies sent me back messages like "Book with me!" "Are you ready?" "Did you see my quote?" One called me every day, sometimes twice a day. I had a 103 fever, I didn't even know the day of the week. Maciej immediately replied with wishes to get better soon and that whenever I was feeling better, he would be available to help. He followed up after a week with just a simple message, "I hope you are feeling better." His compassion, his patience, and his kindness told me all I needed to know about how he would treat my belongings. I finally had a pick up date, quickly communicated with Patriot Moving and set up the pick up time. It was all so easily done by email and text. They moved a vintage 1951 Chambers Model C stove for me. The stove is solid, as in over 450lbs solid! It is made of cast iron, enamel, and insulation all tightly packed within a 38" wide stove. It's a big, heavy beast which needed to be moved from an old 1880's apartment high-rise in the city. This meant narrow doorways and narrow spaces, smaller elevators, and lots of lifting. Patriot Moving showed up a little early and prepared for the move! We communicated mostly by email and text, never having a chance to speak by phone. He provided a COI right away as requested for by the owner. The team showed up prepared with everything for the move including tools to remove a door. They treated my stove and the residence with white glove service care. My stove was carefully wrapped tightly with stretch film to present anything from falling out or shifting. I removed most parts, but there were some that couldn't be removed. The moving team asked for permission when they needed to remove something, completely explaining their process and what to anticipate. They used plenty of moving blankets and covers to keep the home protected as well as the stove. They delivered right away and moved it in carefully, positioning it exactly where we needed it. Ensured that everything was just right, made sure we had all the parts removed and was ready to put everything back on for us. From the moment I reached out for a quote to the minute they finished the move and left, I received nothing short of excellent service! The stellar response and care for my stove was incredible! I won't ever hesitate to recommend them to everyone! Maciej and his team are truly exceptional people. Thank you!

I worked with Ana and the team to get an initial quote and had all of my questions answered. I had to add a couple items to my quote which was a smooth process . In past moving experiences with other companies I had been nickel and dime'd but 606 Movers did not do that. Day of the pick up, Chris and Irwin kept me updated on their arrival time and showed up ready to work. They were extremely professional and clearly experienced. When they dropped off my items in Chicago they were thoughtful with both my items as well as my new apartments shared spaces. They asked where I would like all of my furniture so I didn't have to move anything later and assembled everything. Chicago apartments could be rather tricky to move into but this was no issue for the 606 Movers team! I couldn't thank them enough for making the move so smooth.
