Okay, folks, we’re shooting to move at the end of the month, even though there may still be some odds and ends to finish. We don’t have tons of stuff, but enough that we definitely need three men and a truck (not a van). We’ve used Noah’s Ark a couple of times with widely divergent results. We could really use some suggestions though.
Thanks,
B’stoner

  1. I HIGHLY Recommend Top Hat Movers. The owner Robert Straus was a joy to deal with and everything was moved from my apartment to my new home quickly and safely. No damages to any of my property, no smoking workers, no complaning workers. What was great is that the owner nor the Foreman nag you about tips, unlike some other companies. The foreman was also a joy to deal with, and I really like the way this compny is ran. So if you want to do a move and have all your stuff broken, call someone else. If you want a courteous, safe, quick, reliable move with no hassle, Call Top Hat Movers at 718-622-0377.
    Highly Recommended!!!!!!!!!!!

  2. I love Moving Your Way. I’ve used them 3 times in 5 years already. They work quickly and efficiently as a team and get the job done right.

    Hopefully I won’t have to move again soon, but if I do I will definitely know who to call.

    Moving Your Way!

  3. Has anyone used Gotham Express as a moving company? I found them by placing an ad on Craig’s list and they were the only reasonably priced mover with insurance and the regular services you see in the big expensive ads in the yellow pages. I have a very small move, so the idea of spending $800+ just doesn’t make sense–even though it’s about a 40 mile move from my part of NJ to Brooklyn. I’m getting a flat rate of $220 with a company that’s the longest on Craig’s list and has been around since 1998.

    Thoughts? Would a company that is reasonable for a small move also be reasonable for a friend that has a lot of furnature? What’s your experience?

  4. I used Big Apple Movers two months ago and they were great. They bill completely by the hour. Came in below their estimate on a job that required two stops and many flights of stairs. They were far cheaper than what Flat Rate quoted us. Have heard many bad things about Flat Rate.

  5. Never use Shalom Moving and Delivery. They were the cheapest quote on the NYTimes mover search utility, and the final bill was outrageous. 450-525 was quoted (for a small 1BR in an elevator building) and the final price was 1095. Never again.

    Not as expensive as Flat Rate, but very careful nonetheless.
    We had to move during a blizzard in Dec 2002, and they moved us quickly and carefully … here’s the amazing part: The sofa wouldn’t fit in the elevator of the new building, so they carried it up the stair to the 11th floor without complaints!! They are fantastic.
