Overall a very good experience. They provided a home visit for estimate and to discuss details; arrived for appointment punctually. Gave good advice overall, advised us on cost effective ways to achieve the move, as opposed to trying to extract as much money from us as possible. On move date, the team arrived on time, were very courteous, efficient, hard working. Moved everything in less time than estimated. The price was very good compared to past moves I have done. I would put them first on my list to contact for future mo... read more

I called Big John's Moving the day before I had to move out of my apartment. They were helpful and understanding, and were able to accomodate my last-minute request. They gave me a quote, and broke it down into moving / transportation segments. They arrived on time, and the 3 guys they sent were personable, professional and very courteous. They moved efficiently and quickly, and made sure all of my furniture was well-wrapped before it went into the truck. They actually came in almost $200 UNDER the estimate! Since I had paid... read more

They arrived early before the appointed time and had to wait for me. I did all the packing beforehand except for tv and printer which they protected. Pretty straightforward and simple move but I did have 3 glass topped and 1 marble topped tables that needed to be removed and packed separately. They sent 3 men as per estimate – 2 did the moving and 1 stayed with the truck. They were efficient, pleasant and nothing broke. Final price was actually less than estimate because I did not have them move couch to dumpster as original... read more

Overall they did a great job. The only thing I was dissappointed with was that it took about 11 days for them to get here. They quoted that they would be a little sooner. However, the service was very professional, and they were on time. Everything went smooth as far as asking questions and getting answers. They handled our belongings with care, and nothing was broken or scratched. They moved me from a one bedroom apartment in New YorkCItyto North Carolina. They were very thorough with the estimate, and were very reasonably ... read more

They did a very good job with the move. The only reason why we didn’t use them again was because of the storage facility. We weren’t happy with the level of cleanliness. They packed and did everything for our move.

They were absolutely amazing. Fast, efficient, courteous, professionaland they even came in under their estimate! From the visit for the estimate, thecompanywas very helpful and transparent about their pricing, servicesand in setting expectations. They also had suggestions to save time (eg, schedule move on the day where alternate side parking would allow the truck to park right in front), which all worked. The movers were speedy yet very careful. Everything moved without a scratch. Even with the three flights of stairs at t... read more

See above! My crew moved a grand piano, a pile of HUGE rocks up a hill, a ping pong table, a freezer (up a winding staircase) and a pile of doors (from the attic) among other things--expertly. Without complaint. They had to disassemble the piano and reassemble it at the new location. All done quickly and with total knowledge of how to do it. The move was complex and there were a lot of steps--and they did them all just right. Nicest guys. Also, Big John's gave me a discount because there would be 6 hours of travel time total... read more

This is the best company I have ever hired to do anything ever. They were freaking amazing. They showed up exactly on time, had the right number of dudes, and emptied out my old place at what seemed like the speed of light. Everything that I had been concerned would be difficult or complicated to move they had figured out what to do with and moved it before I had a chance to say I was concerned about it. Like, I have a gigantic flat-screen computer monitor-- I had no clue how to box it. Before I could even say "I don't know ... read more
