    Absolutely the worst moving experience of my life. I worked with SEKA before, two times, moving within Brooklyn, then Brooklyn to Long Island, so obviously I called them when we decided to move to California... and everything I thought about the company, evaporated! - Delivery took over a month and a half. - Communication about delays was basically nonexistent - Breached their contract - Damaged and lost our stuff, totaling over $3,000 - USDOT and MC Operational Licensing problems/legality issues - Regularly ignored our requests for information, both through emails and phone calls. - Operating under several different business names, with layers of entities. 1. We have paid extra money for stuff to be delivered to two different locations in California, about 6-7 minutes away from each other (my parents moved with us and we rented a separate place for them), when they were picking everything up from our house, they walked around and labeled each item indicating what goes to address a and what needs to go to address b, but when the truck arrived, everything was simply shoved into the truck randomly, with zero regard to soft vs hard, light vs heavy items, with heavy items stacked on top of soft and fragile items, as an example, heavy furniture items were stacked on top of a very expensive fake Christmas tree in its duffel bag, and the list goes on, even the truck driver looked at it was like "What the hell? Who the hell packs this way!" 2. In the contractual estimate that we and probably you sign with the company, there are paragraphs with their guarantees, one of which and I would encourage everyone to pay attention to this one is their guarantee to pad wrap ALL THE FURNITURE in brackets, it says (moving blankets), only two of our furniture items were wrapped in blankets, that was my wife's piano keyboard and our massive 6x3 mirror which was lost (how do you lose such a large mirror?!) everything else was already shrink-wrapped by me before they arrived because i just wanted to keep everything clean, I did not expect that they will not wrap anything else in blankets. 3. Surprise, surprise, every single piece of furniture that wasn't wrapped in blankets arrived deeply scratched, dinged, damaged, chipped, and broken, and I mean 90% of items arrived damaged a different degree of damage, which means they are in breach of contract! 4. They have lost a ton of our stuff, including the massive mirror, gone, boxes with kitchen stuff like pots, pans, tableware, etc., gone, boxes with some of our shoes, gone. 5. Boxes arrived smashed, ripped, and some were damaged from some sort of leak that was sticky, and we discovered mice droppings in some of the boxes, now keep in mind, I dropped an AirTag in one of our items, and saw that for the entirety of the time, our stuff were just sitting at a warehouse in Jersey City, so I'm not surprised that the place might be rat/mice infested, but we had trow out some of the stuff from these boxes due to health concerns. 6. I have reached out to them almost immediately after we unpacked most of our stuff, and essentially asked for help and a fair resolution, sent an email with an itemized list of all the stuff that was damaged, broken, and missing, to which they sent me a form I had to fill up and submit, which I did, their response was and I'm quoting "Based on the total weight involved, this comes to $265.80. However, as a gesture of goodwill, we have rounded this amount up to $300" Over $3,000 of damages and losses, and they offered $300 as a gesture of goodwill. 7. When I tried to check their USDOT and MC Operator License numbers, they appeared invalid, I contacted USDOT and they confirmed over the phone that these numbers are invalid and the company under the name SEKA Moving should not be operating, I reached out to SEKA and asked them about this issue, here is their reply "Regarding your note about the USDOT and MC numbers: our company recently went through a management change, and with that transition, we were issued new licenses. The numbers you referenced were still included in some previously signed contracts." So I replied to that and asked for them to share the new Lice Numbers, that was a month ago! I was ignored on this request both via email and phone calls, they have never provided me with the new numbers. I have submitted a formal complaint to USDOT, BBB, and will be submitting one to the Secretary of State. In addition, I am considering a court filing as well.

    AVOID AVOID AVOID! Seka Moving OUTSOURCED my move without warning. I hired Seka Moving for a return cross-country move because of the trust they earned in my initial cross country move in 2022. I worked with Ashley to set up this move. She was adequate. Not nearly as thorough as my first time with Nick, but ok. I worked with Rob in the days leading up to moving day to schedule the time. Neither of them mentioned the possibility of Seka Moving outsourcing my move to a completely different company. On the day of my move I open the door expecting to see Seka Moving uniforms and instead I see 3 guys in BLVD Moving uniforms. I almost told them they were at the apartment but I realized they were the same guys who I spoke to that morning, and they had my Seka paperwork. The truck was also a BLVD moving truck. The packing and move out was fine but upon delivery I thought there was an issue with my TV because the detachable bezel was cracked. They convinced me it was just the bezel which I accepted (I wasn't crazy to believe it; just tired from the redeye I had to take across the country to meet the movers for the delivery.) They unpacked it outside and brought it in so I didn't get to see the box which in hindsight should have been a red flag. When I eventually unpacked the components to set it up and plugged it in I could see the inner panel was cracked, which is more expensive to fix than a replacement TV. The delivery guys were actually quite pleasant overall and did great job and I truly hope they weren't just overcompensating because they knew there was a problem with the TV, but in hindsight I can't help but think they did know. I was told I would get a copy of the delivery bill of lading in my email and I did get an email after signing off but when I went to attach it to my claim it was actually just a survey they asked me to fill out about how they did! No delivery bill of lading. The TV was $4200 at time of purchase. I sent in my claim and requested the current replacement price. They quoted the basic liablity of $92.40 and in a goodwill gesture offered $200. If Seka Moving had packed and moved me with the care they put into my first move I don't think I would have had a broken TV, but if I did I would have to accept this. They did not. They outsourced my move to a completely different, unvetted company with no warning. HAD Seka had let me know they were outsourcing my move I would have gotten additional insurance! If I even knew there was a remote possibility of outsourcing I would have gotten additional insurance. Nothing in my contract even hints at this. Instead I was blindsided after the window when additional insurance can be added. Just AVOID. My entire 2022 move was perfect and I've since recommended them to many friends and Reddits but they are not the same Seka Moving from 2022. This is not an honorable company.

    Updating to add to missing items: sound bar and unique geode from Brazil. Additionally adding photos of the wall damaged by Seka before the crew arrived and of damaged vintage lamp. Thanks SEKA! SO glad I went with you guys, know I get to miss out on my special items and have to replace a living room tv and sound bar.

    Ordered and confirmed 2 trucks for 8.30am. Showed up at 11.30. Only one truck showed up. First crew had to comeback four times because truck was too small and second truck never materialized. Storage placement was a disaster with things literally thrown on top of each other Got charged double and wars threatened if didn't pay to return furniture and throw in the garden. Worst company ever.

    Carefully wrapped dresser!

    We moved a bed, dresser, nightstand, couch, and a large piece of art. Seka arranged the move for the very next day. Our movers, David and Otari, were professionals and polite from the start. Their communication about arrival time was excellent. They wrapped the items carefully, their removal and transfer techniques into a tricky entry, and down a flight of stairs was done methodically and without any damage to walls, floors, or doors. They left each site clean and organized just as we wanted it. I really couldn't have asked for more from David and Otari. I recommend them very highly and suggest you request them for your move!

    i recommend seka moving company without reservation they are by far the most professional company in the moving business ! they moved such delicate glass cabinets and break fronts to perfection. huge pieces of furniture from my entire home with such care. they were also polite and patient. i cannot thank truck 20 and foreman guram enough for their professonal moving.

    3 hours late and counting.
    Kevin T.

    I'm writing a review in part because my movers are 3 hours late and no one has reached out to me to give me an update. I've tried calling multiple times but just get a recording that the office is closed. I'm hoping maybe someone from the company will reach out to me to let me know when my stuff is coming or if I'll have to sleep on the floor. I used Seka to move out of my apartment last year and into storage, in part because of all the 5-star reviews. You should be aware that THEY OFFER YOU A DISCOUNT IF YOU WRITE A 5 STAR REVIEW IN FRONT OF THE FOREMAN. I declined because my integrity cannot be purchased. I would be very skeptical of any 5-star reviews on here. I promise you it is not a five-star experience. --update-- Finally arrived 4 hours late. Broke one of the bannister legs on the stairs, couch is damaged, etc. I'll update later with more pictures. This company is a nightmare DO NOT USE THEM. Every 5 star review that begins "Jimmy and his crew / AB and his team, David and his crew" was paid for. They offer you a review to copy and paste! Look at Alex N's review, he accidentally pasted the review they wrote for him twice smh. What a shame so many people have contributed to artificially pumping up Seka's ratings just to save a few bucks. Will report to BBB.

    Things thrown in boxes with no organization or attempt to maximize space.

The crew was amazing, incredibly profeessional, polite, took excellent care with our belongings, and went out of their way to make sure everything was addressed. We were stressed about the move but it went so smooth, and they made it so easy, that we had nothing to worry about. We had them pack all of our belongings, best choice we ever made. It would have taken us days to do it ourselves and things would have broken along the way. They did it quickly and securely and it went off without any incidents.

Unfortunately we went with the other mover as my wife had used them before, but now I've come to realize we should have let them both quote us on the move. This time, I decided just based off of Yelp and other reviews to stick with JP Urban. Now cameras\phones\AI I assume is so advanced you can do a virtual walkthrough for your quote, which is very nice. Milan was fantastic at setting everything up, Ronny and JR were in charge of the crew, and they were fantastic at navigating the myriad issues involved (coop to coop move). They managed to move 5 Billy bookcases, 3 of which are 15 years old at this point, without a single issue of any kind. These are not the sturdiest of items, so I find that impressive. They had zero damage at either building, and given what I saw in the myriad moves from our old building, where I was a member of the board, most moving companies have a total lack of care.

After talking to them, I knew I wanted to go with them. Their customer service, attention to details, and organization are 5-star levels. One thing that really stood out to me was that instead of asking me how many boxes I need, they asked me to send them pics of my place and stuff, and they calculated the number of small, medium and large boxes I need. It's so easy to underestimate and get a different price at the end. Also, I know I wanted packers because its speeds up the entire process of moving and settling in. I'm so glad I did with Roadway. It usually takes me over half a week to pack and be stressed for over a week, but Diego and his 3 teammates packed up our studio in 2-3 hours. They're so professional. They moved so quickly with care and accuracy. Most importantly, all my kitchen appliances were wrapped with care and delivered and arrived to my new apartment in the same condition. It took us about 2 hrs to settle in, and they once again unpacked most of the furnitures and reassembled them, making me feel settled in and relaxed. I cannot thank their team enough. They're all so polite, friendly and efficient. Within 1 day, I already feel 95% settled in. It's the easiest, stress-free moving experience I had in a while!

We will absolutely use them again, and we will be recommending them to everyone we know. Olga was super communicative, and she made the process so smooth and stress-free. She was always extremely responsive. Every question we asked was answered quickly and every email we received felt very reassuring. We haven't moved in a while and we had a lot of worries about moving to NY and hiring movers. But we could tell how competent they were even over email. For example, we realized the night before the move that we have a sunken in living room we did not mention before. We thought surely that will be an extra charge (and other movers might be very upset with us for not mentioning it!). We frantically emailed that they may want to bring a ramp or something. Olga responded, that is no problem. A lot of other companies also wanted an inventory of everything ahead of time, which we definitely didn't have. Olga said we could guesstimate and update her if anything changed. This was a lifesaver. When we updated along the way, she never seemed concerned that what we were adding was too much. We have friends who have used other moving companies, and they told us actual horror stories (e.g., movers not showing up, a million extra charges, needing every box to be accounted for before the move, things breaking, etc.). So when we were looking for movers, we were trying to avoid all of that. We decided to go with NY nomads because they were a small family business. Many of the big companies seem to be hit or miss - some people have okay experiences and some have really bad ones. There's a reason NY nomads have so many great reviews. They're kind, consistent, and professional. Djordje was friendly, great to talk to, and clearly very knowledgeable about moving and NYC. I was impressed with how quickly and efficiently they moved everything into the truck, and I was even more impressed with how they were able to park the truck right in front of our apartment. You can tell they have a lot of experience. If you're moving to NYC or moving within NYC, I would absolutely recommend NY nomads. You won't regret it. Worth every penny.

Based on my estimates of the time the job would take, they were much cheaper than any of the 5 other companies we got quotes from. In the end though, the job did take longer than expected. They used three employees and a large truck. They provided blankets, plastic wrap, and tape to properly protect all items for transport. If they noticed any preexisting damage on the furniture, they notified us promptly so we were aware. Initially, they worked quite efficiently, but began to slow down during the second half of pick-up. What I thought would take about 4 hours ended up being a 6 hour job, including a 45 minute drive to the new place. They still came in cheaper than the next best quote we were considering, but not by much. When they finished the move, they left a mountain of tape, plastic, and cardboard, which they supplied, in our hallway. We thought they would clean it up before leaving, but we were left with that task, which was disappointing. They require a $50 + tax deposit to reserve a move. You pay the balance after all the work is done. They offer a discount if you pay in cash. Overall, they were professional and moving is grueling work so I have no major complaints, other than the debris they left behind. But be mindful that the time-based quote may add up, so be prepared to spend more than you might anticipate.

LASTLY we were given pricing we paid that by bill and paid $800 extra over that without receipt as they demanded that they packed box. When vector gave me a quote it included 10 medium boxes $20 per box but the guys packed everything with white wrapper in kitten not one but 4 sheets and increased boxes packed to 30 , unethically charging us for small boxes stuffed with white paper. Please note it was a very painful experience and no one deserves this kind of billing or nonsense
