On the way up they neglected to tie the sofa properly and had to go back down the steps. While carrying the sofa and loveseat up the steps apparently the couches were dragged along our tongue and groove pine boards that line the walls and made huge gauges in the wood.This cannot be repaired due to the age of the wood. My husband and I did not notice this until after these two movers left and I signed off on the paperwork. I immediately phoned and spoke to C J. He was not in any way interested in inspecting this damage and didn't believe they were in any way at fault. After much conversation I was offered $50.00 for $200.00 PAID for the gauges which ran the length of of our staircase walls. The damage far exceeds the cost of the move. I do not recommend hiring them to move anything as they have no regard for your property.
Description of Work: Very Disappointed in theses movers!!!! They had to move one love seat, one couch and one recliner up my basement stairs to the main floor.

Workers were careful protecting our wood floors and very efficient and pleasant. We paid the minimum for a visit, which ended up including the actual moving because we lived so close by.
Description of Work: Moved a piano from the first floor and a very heavy desk from the second floor into the garage.

There was genuine concern about where we would like specific items placed and seeing to it we were pleased with their work. We were impressed.
Description of Work: Three men came for the move and did not stop until we had lunch. After lunch they were at it again. We had all the furniture, many boxes etc.and the move was done in 6 hours. Our move was approximately 27 miles.

The crew arrived right on time and everything went smoothly.
Description of Work: They moved us from Waterford to Niantic. There was acres of three, one the owners' son. They were great to work with. The provider is a small company that offers great service! We couldn't have asked for better service!

I appreciated the in-home estimate. The work crew was friendly, and they hustled. I would definitely recommend.
Description of Work: Atherton just handled our in-town move. They were professional and the rates were reasonable. They also do pianos, which was important for us.

This was a superb customer experience, start to finish. Charlie Atherton was recommended to us by a Westerly acquaintance. We had not planned ahead sufficiently, but Charlie went above and beyond the call of duty to squeeze this move into his busy schedule with just a week's notice. His team arrived promptly at the specified time, and were efficient, courteous, and friendly throughout the move, despite the 95-degree heat. When my mother mentioned that she didn't know how she was going to get rid of the old piano, they volunteered to drop it off at the town dump on the way to her new apartment. (There was a reasonable additional fee for this service.) My mother (who is 89) was delighted to have this chore taken care of.We whole-heartedly recommend Atherton & Sons Movers!! Thank you, Charlie and team!
Description of Work: The company moved much of the contents of my mother's 5-bedroom house to her new apartment, and took her ancient piano to the town dump.

I did not hire them. I finally was able to get friends to help me.
Description of Work: I called for an estimate I was willing to move any day to the week to be able to save money but the price was very expensive. I was moving from a third floor to a 2nd floor in a different location only 5 miles away but they would not come down on price because of the stairs. The quote was very unclear because there was a minimun number of hours and even though the actual move was only 5 miles away they said it would take all day adding hours to the quote basically I felt my move was not expensive enough so they were adding ways to make it more expensive and worth their time.
