This is a two part/two day review: Tony contacted me the week prior to my move and we agreed on pricing logistics etc. We worked out details on he phone & via e-mail. There were no surprises. Not a problem.
Pricing was excellent and I didn't need to haggle: straight up honest pricing for man power/hours w/ 5% discount for cash & one way drive time. You cannot get better.
Best of all, Tony didn't ask me to measure the size of my furniture, calculate volume of area, count items (boxes), or create an elaborate inventory check list.
I packed 90% of my belongings (and color

I had a 2 bedroom apartment. I was told it would cost $120 an hr for 3 movers. The day of the move they were 4 hrs late. The guy then told me that i have too much stuffs and it would take them 15 hrs to do the job , then disclosed all the hidden charges and wanted me to sign a 15 hr contract. I called the owner to clarify what the guy was saying. Then he was told to charge me per hour. They called in another guy and the per hour rate is now $165. It only took them 5 hrs to do everything. Its costed me more than $1000 for a 2 bedroom, 4 miles move including the additional hidden charges.

Unfortunately once I unpacked all my things there were several damages of expensive furniture. They had packed a few boxes for me but piled up heavy things on top of each other and when I unpacked I was disappointed to find a few things damaged beyond repair. Could have been avoided with more careful packing. They also lost screws for things and now I can't put my stuff back together.

Very pricey at the end of the day. They keep the price in limbo for occurring cost to reach a final tally. At the end of the process is a zinger! They had no problem hitting you hard in an Covid economic climate. This company should not be your first or second option. No matter what they promised or quote you for the initial service it will severely escalate at the end.

Meant to write this on the day of the actual move which was March 3rd 2021. These guys did a really awesome job for my daughters move!! JOSEPH, SOLOMON DAVID & ANTONIO. They wrapped everything carefully, nothing broken or damaged. The pricing was very good too. These guys are honest and hard working and this was a tough move. We also provided lunch for them in addition to tipping each person. I would highly reccomend them!

Joseph, Antonio and Salomon helped load up our pod for our move across the country and they were fantastic! They were very friendly, patient, professional and caring. They really took the time and care to make sure all our precious items were packed safely and securely. I would absolutely use them again!

Joe and Cesar were super helpful and professional. I gotta say that Cesar is the man. He was so fast and hard working. He knocked it out of the park! I was a little worried that our stuff not fitting in the storage unit but Cesar made it happen... he must be really good at Tetris lol. Cesar, my girlfriend and I appreciate all your hard work. Thanks again!

Late review (with moving and all). Awesome guys. Got our whole two-story house wrapped, taped, disassembled (if needed), loaded, relocated, and unloaded with professional care and in less time than estimated.
Cesar and David even went out of their way to ensure all my family's beds were all setup and ready so the kids could sleep.
Definitely recommend.

A classic "I wish zero stars was an option" situation. If you don't care about your stuff making it to your new place, then go with TLC.
First, they showed up 30 minutes late. They noted the start time, but they also bill a full hour, not a fraction -- expect your move to take X hours and 10 minutes.
The foreman spent more time talking about the photos, my running routine, and his cycling routine than actually moving anything. Some friendly conversation is normal, this guy spent 2 hours standing around chit chatting. $265/hour might be marginally better than other places, but

They appear very nice and professional at the beginning. HOWEVER, they will overcharge you. My brother and I were moving from a small 2 bedroom apartment to another apartment only 1 mile away. We also helped move and unpack a majority of the time. In total it took 6 hours. Initially they quoted us at $140 per hour which SHOULD HAVE equaled $840. When all was said and done, they had several hidden fees. They charged us $175 extra because our apartment was 75 feet away from the street. How is that our fault? They also charge for every piece of tape, box, and shrink wrap they used. It was $45 per

They PISSED ON THE FLOOR of my 75 year old grandmother's house!!!! As if over charging her by DOUBLE to move from one unit to another in the same complex wasnt insulting enough, one of these men (Roberto, Antonio, Ronald) had the audacity to intentionally urinate on her floor!!! Are you F*****G kidding me?!?!?!
I wish she had told me about this company before she hired them cause based on the other reviews here, this place is clearly low balling their estimates and then price gouging after the work is done. But I never in a million years would think that any so called professional would PEE
