Excellent job. Very professional. They were friendly and easy to work with and final charges came in under quote. Moved us approximately 10 blocks from old apartment to new.

I was very happy with Big John's. Everyone I dealt with seemed to honestly want to make my move go more smoothly and keep the cost down. The estimate was very accurate and they were very accommodating when my needs changed closer to moving day. Everyone was very professional. The movers were on time and most importantly, all my belongings arrived in one piece. I would recommend them. Moved boxes and furniture from a one bedroom apartment to another apartment 10-15 minutes away.

The move went very smoothly. It had been arranged on just several days' notice which really worked for us.The men arrived right on time. (Several confirmation calls had been received prior to the move.) The whole process took less than 1 1/2 hours. We were required to pay for a minimum of 2 hours plus an additional 1-1/4 hour for travel time. Payment had to be in cash or by bank check. The movers were courteous and professional. A queen size sofa bed was moved from one borough in New York to another. Both places were apartme... read more

I would call this company very honorable. They guarantee you that if your bill winds up being thirty percent more than what they estimate initially, they will refund your money. They did that for me. They had underestimated the price of my move. I think they thought since I had an apartment, I would not have as much stuff as I did. They did refund my money though and boy was that honest. I referred them to my sister since they were so honest with me. I tell people they are great. Big John's moved me from my one bedroom apart... read more

Overall, they did a very good job. There was nothing broken and the price was lower than other places that I called. I had them help me pack up my 1200 square foot apartment and then move me 3 blocks to another apartment. I did purchase the boxes from them and they did move all of the furniture as well.

I thought they did a very good job. There was nothing broken! The workers did show up to the move on time and they delivered the items on time. They came prepared with enough tie down ropes and other supplies to ensure the safety of my things during the move. There were four people doing the work. I had them move my belongings, which included boxes and furniture, from my existing home to a storage unit and then to my new home. It was a total distance of about 20 miles. I did all of the packing myself and they did not any pro... read more

The workers were prompt, polite, and more careful with our stuff than I would have been if I had moved it. They worked quickly and efficiently, and the final price was below the estimate. We were very pleased with our experience and would use them again without hesitation. They moved our belongings from a 1BR apartment to a home in Westchester County.

They were fantastic every step of the way! This is the 4th time we've used Big John's in 12 years, and I've gladly referred them to many other people during this time. They are experienced, knowledgeable, prompt, and polite. The final price even came in below the estimate! Another mover I contacted never called back. The phone staff, the estimator and the packers/movers were all true professionals. They made my moving day far less stressful than it could have been! Packing up a two-bedroom apartment and moving to a new locat... read more

I THOUGHT THAT THEY WERE GREAT TO WORK WITH. THEY DIDN'T BREAK ANYTHING, SO THEY WERE VERY CAREFUL. THEY SHOWED UP WHEN THEY WERE SUPPOSED TO. I THOUGHT THAT THE PRICE WAS REASONABLE. THEY MOVED ME TO MY NEW HOME, MANY MILES AWAY.
