Response from Hopkins & Sons Inc
Hi, I am not sure how we could of received a negative feed back from a customer that we did not service in any way. We have no record of this customer calling our office and would be very happy to service his move. There are some dates that we are booked out, however the time frame he listed we are not booked out. Our salesperson's scheduled are booked out on specific dates and times as well, but again we should be able to service this customer's need. We would like an opportunity to speak with him. Please feel free to have the customer call our office and ask for me Mark Pitrizzi Vice President and Owner of Hopkins and Sons Inc. 302-322-5421.

Description of Work: Moved my office location. The 3 guys we had were great to work with. Very attentive, careful with my furniture & especially my NEW walls at my new location.

The movers were at my location before scheduled and were very courteous, respectful and careful with all of our furniture. We had moved everything except for the furniture (which helped saved on final cost). The price was based on the weight (for interstate moves) and was very reasonable. They arrived at our new location on time and were a great help in placing everything where they were asked to. They used tarps to cover the hardwood in the new house to avoid any issues with scratching the hardwood. I would 100% recommend Hopkins and Sons for your next move!
Description of Work: I hired this company to move us from a 3-story townhouse in Wilmington, DE to a 3 bedroom ranch house on Kent Island, MD (approx 90 miles away).

I had used this company to move before and they were great. This time around it was a different moving crew. They did everything they could to drag their feet and infalte the bill (they charge an hourly rate). On the drive from our old apartment to our new apartment they drove 20 miles under the speed limit and stopped at every light until it turned red. They took multiple "smoke breaks". I had to constantly check on them to make sure they were not goofing off. They easily added an extra hour and a half of time to the bill. I called and complained to the manager. She took all the information down and said she'd look into it and get back to me. Never heard from her again.

Great. Arrived on time. Worked quickly and efficiently per the estimate. Moved a refrigerator and heavy filing cabnet out of the basement that 4 of my friends and I moved into the basement and hurt our backs and knees. They brought a crane and lifted the furniture through a second floor window above the porch roof because the stair wells were too narrow. The cost was within the estimate.

The estimator came out to our home, provided a good estimate as well as a number of tips on how to reduce the time and cost on the day of the move. The movers arrived promptly, worked quickly and efficiently, and finished under the estimated time. We were overall very pleased with this company and would use them again.

They were excellent. Tom did the estimate for 10 hours (payment is by the hour). They arrived on time and protected the floors. They were very careful with our furniture some of which is antique. We were pleased they used two vans as access was limited at the unload end. The crew were very polite and worked steadily all day. They finished in 9 hours as they did not take lunch (we provided lunch). There were no breakages or damage. Best move we have had.
Description of Work: Hopkins moved us from a 3 bedroom house about 10 miles to another 3 bedroom house. They used 4 men and two trucks. We did all the packing in boxes from a recent cross country move. We had a bit less than 10,000 lbs.

This outfit bills by hourly rate of $140.00 for a truck and three men. They do not nickle and dime you to death like other moving companies.

They did a wonderful job! They were very neat, conscientious and careful. They also told us that we wouldn't have to put anything into storage. It just came straight to me in Minnesota. That was nice. They were very personable and easy to work with.
Description of Work: They gave us a ball park price of what the cost would be. They came out and packed some things that I couldn't pack for my father's estate.
