Rock's Moving Co

I highly recommend Rocks Moving without hesitation for your next move! The movers were prompt and extremely cordial and efficient. The move day was a brutally hot (even for Florida) and it did not seem to slow these guys down. The movers took great care of our belongings as we moved several sentimental and antique items. Also, after getting quotes from several other moving companies, the Rocks Moving quote was significantly lower :) Rocks Moving Company has integrity, not something to take lightly in an industry known for shady companies and outright rip-offs. I will definitely use Rocks for our next move!

They were excellent and exceptional across the board. The estimate was delivered in a professional manner and the favorable experience continued until the truck left my residence. The moving team was clean cut, polite, personable and focused throughout the moving process. I would highly recommend this company for all your moving needs.

They were very precise on the cost. When they showed up, they were polite, cordial and didn?t mess around on the job. My only issue is that I had exercise equipment that I was having moved by exercise equipment professionals and I had asked them not to disturb the equipment, unfortunately that fell on deaf ears. They also weren?t accurate on the size of the storage unit that I should rent, so we fell short. However, they took the remainder of our household goods that would not fit back to Clearwater and stored them in a wooden bin at no cost to us. They are going to deliver those items back to us when the moving van comes also for no additional fee. This shows me that they have integrity and do their best to rectify their mistakes. The quality of the work was great and I haven?t seen any damage to the furniture. I will use them again in the future. ****Update-- 10/19/13**** We feel like we were completely fooled by Rocks once we started to unpack our items. We have discovered many things that are broken and many things that were pack hap-hazardly. We have a beautiful vase that was broken, there were light items that were packed on the bottom of boxes. We were so disappointed with our experience, this was awful. We lost lamp shades, dishes, among numerous other things. I just don't understand what they were doing! Some of the china was packed beautifully, but them some of our china literally was laid on a piece of paper. When we called Rocks to let them know about all our broken items, I spoke with a lady manager. She had a very unemotioal response. There was no, "Oh no! I am so sorry that happened." Nothing like that. She said that the claims are handled as your contract states. Which to let you know, they pay $0.60 per pound for items broken! So a broken lamp shade would have been about $0.80.

I obtained a quote on line and the final bill was very close. Two men arrived exactly on time and worked at a fast pace the entire time. They took care to protect my belongings. They were personable and very professional.

These guys are great!!! Was recommended to me and I would recommend them without thought. They ran to the truck to get the next load, heck I just stayed out of their way because they were moving much faster than I was. And they were personable and very friendly. One guy didn't talk much but not everyone is a talker he just worked. My boyfriend asked me "where did you get these guys?" he was so impressed with them. I saw a bad review in this list and I really don't believe it - there was only courteous professional service. I realize they moved me a while ago but I just joined and I had been so impressed with this moving company I knew I had to highly recommend them. By the way I had another company, Advantage Movers, lined up to move me and they basically shoved me to a different time slot to I guess accommodate someone else. ACK I called Rock Movers and the took very good care of me with just 3 days notice. I was very upset and the lady I spoke with made me feel like my mom was helping me!!!

Rock's moving was very responsive from the first day I contacted them They moved furniture, pictures, etc. from Tampa to Dunedin. They were on time, stayed within their original estimate and everything was in perfect condition when delivered. I would highly recommend Rock's moving. They are very positive and efficient.

I thought they were great. They responded quickly when I requested information on Angie's List, responded within the day. They're very efficient and moved everything perfectly.

HORRIBLE!!! THEY STOLE 2 ARABIAN LAMPS AND BROKE A PRICELESS VASE AND TWO JAPANESE SILK SCREENS.

This company is great! Worked with me through a very stressful house closing. The move date changed multiple times and they were very flexible. Bob and Donna, in the office were very kind and followed up with me as I rescheduled and rescheduled. I have used other companies in the past that sent guys who were obviously temporary laborers working for a day's cash. They didn't care about how well the job was done and what they broke or sweated on. The young men from Rocks, Terrance, Walter and Gary, were kind, considerate, professional and hard working. They worked really well together and made it look like they were enjoying the hard work they were doing, I would recommend this company to anyone who wants clean, well spoken, polite, professional workers for their move.

The moving company scheduled the move on a day and time that was convenient for me. I required them to pick up furniture and boxes from 3 locations, 2 storage units and a home, in both Brandon and Tampa with the final delivery in Pinellas Park. When the two men arrived they introduced themselves and proceeded to make themselves useful. I was running behind with some last minute packing and they asked if they could assist and jumped right in to help with packing. I was feeling overwhelmed and appreciated the help. During the move, they were careful to point out any damage they saw on items or boxes that had been stored. They unloaded in an efficient manner with respect to fragile items and assisted with placing protection on the furniture to protect the new wood flooring. I had many boxes that they placed in a family room that would allow me to get to them safely as I opened them and emptied them. Last but not least, we reloaded several boxes and trunks that were destined to my sister's home several blocks away. I was very pleased with the gentlemen who made my move so much easier that day. Although I hope there are no moves in the near future, If I am wrong I know who to call. Well Done!

First off the man that gives estimates (Bob) is a very nice man. He answered all my questions and gave a fairly accurate estimate. It was only $200 off in my favor! So on moving day a three man crew showed up a few minutes early and did a brief walk through. Immediately they started loading up. Before I know it one apartment was done, then the storage. On the last apartment we had a couple furniture items that were EXREMLY fragile. The crew wrapped them up and very carefully moved them. Once we got to the house they very quickly unpacked everything with only a small break in between. It only took them 6.5 hours and they we always laughing and joking around, being silly yet professional. I am extremely pleased with this company and crew and will defiantly be using them for any future moves!

The moving team arrived on time and got right to work. They were professional, fast and strong. These 3 guys worked their butts off for 12 hours with very minimal breaks. They were polite and careful with our belongings even up and down multiple staircases. They did terrific job.

The scheduler, Bob, helped me to know how to plan for this move. I overestimated the boxes that I thought I would have and that did make the pack quicker. Bob was able to get me on the schedule on very short notice; I called on Saturday and they were able to come on Thursday of the next week, which also happened to be Labor Day weekend. His estimate, between $900- 1200, was fair. He also suggested that I use a 3 man crew, for $140/hour, as opposed to a 2 man crew for $90/hour. That made sense to me, since 3 could work more quickly. It proved to be a wise decision, as the crew came in "under budget" and I was able to hire them again to move the furniture we needed into the apartment.

This was hands down the best move I've ever had (and I've moved A LOT); I would not hesitate to recommend Rock's Moving for anyone considering a move in the future. The team assigned to my move was professional, energetic, and actually quite funny; they were all so positive and were hustling through the job. They even kept me and my mom laughing while they were working. It is so nice to hire workers who not only do a great job, but actually enjoy doing what they do! While I hope to not move again anytime soon, if/when I do, I will be calling Rock's once again to help me. Thanks so much to all the men on my crew!

The team with Rocks Moving was fantastic. They showed up early and were ready to go when they arrived. They prepped everything that needed to be prepped, tore down the furniture, and loaded it quickly. Once we arrived at the new house they moved everything into each of the correct rooms and set everything up.The guys were great to work with and worked quickly and efficiently even with as hot as it was. I would absolutely use these guys again!!

We had a small issue in the beginning. We have spoke about having two trucks for the move, but they only arrived with one. They made two trips with just the one truck, as opposed to doing the whole move with two trucks. In the end though, I was very happy with the company. The staff was hardworking and they did a great job.

The Movers called us at 12 p.m. on June 29 stating they would be there at 1 p.m., actually showed up at 1:15 p.m. which wasn't to big of an issue since neither of the movers had ever been been to Harbour Island before. When they knocked on my door the lead mover immediately requested I sign their invoice form which states that "I understand that I am paying $95 per hour for 2 men" and "I understand that there will be 1 hour travel time added to the amount of the time that it takes to complete the job." I found it funny at the time they wanted this signed right away before they even looked at the job. After I signed the form the movers grabbed a couple of loose items and said they had to prepare their truck, time was 1:30 p.m. The movers did not return back to our apartment until 2 p.m. and this was only after to found them sitting by the side of the truck (one on the phone and the other moving pads) - So 45 minutes into the move, all that has been moved is a cooler and a side table. The movers were nice enough guys and complained often about their booking service with Rock's saying that this should have been a 3-man move since there was an elevator involved. They were shocked when I told them that their estimator, Bob said it was only a 2-person job. After 4 HOURS of only 1 of the movers taking things out of my apartment and the other mover only focusing on packing, I asked them to find out if we could get an extra mover. They called their office and were told no. So, guess what? I had to assist the movers by carrying all of the mattress and breaking apart my own king size bed and desk. So much for them performing this service? My wife became very upset at the time it was taking and costing us ($95/hr) for this move and the fact I was moving and loading items for them into the Rock's Moving truck. Side note: Neither of the movers had any tools to take apart our desk or bed frame. They actually starting using my tools to without asking to break down our stuff. So much for them being prepared and arriving in a fully equipped moving truck as their ads suggest! When I was carrying items to the truck, I noticed how they were packing our things and they were not using any padded blankets or strapping. Needless to say it was a VERY poor packing job with lots of wasted space above the 5ft level to the ceiling height. My wife contacted their estimator, Bob and she expressed her displeasure in how the move was going and that it was looking like it was going to cost TRIPLE THEIR ESTIMATE! Bob, said that since I signed the form tough luck and if she didn't like it or refused to pay the movers would place everything back into the apartment. The movers approached me and asked me if I wanted the truck unloaded? Since it was 99% full and we were between a rock and a hard place I just wanted the move completed. The movers said it happens all of the time with Bob and Rock's job estimating. Stating that "Bob always under estimates the bids to secure the job, so they run up the hourly charges on the customers." Both movers said they feel really bad for the customers and wish there was more they could do. The loading portion of the move was completed at 6:30 p.m. (6.25hrs) with me helping with the load for the last 2.5 hours and that was only after I agreed to leave several items in our old apartment. The movers followed me to our new condo, only 1 mile away (according to Rock's Policy this just cost us $95 for a 5min drive). We had a reserved elevator for the movers and we coordinated for the moving truck to park less then 20 feet from the elevator door. The movers began the unload with my wife and I helping unpload and carry items to our condo with the movers. With the unload was completed at 9:00 p.m. with me having to reassemble the desk and king size bed they were supposed to do. So when it was all said and done, Rock's Moving Company billed us for 8.5 hours at $95/hr totalling $807.50, on what we expected to be a $400 move while my wife and I worked as movers for 5hrs! IF YOU WANT SLOW, UNPREPARED, UNSKILLED MOVERS WHERE YOU HAVE TO HELP MOVE YOUR OWN ITEMS, BREAK DOWN AND REASSEMBLE YOUR OWN FURNITURE DEFINITELY CONTACT ROCK'S MOVING COMPANY! ....btw their office staff is extremely rude!

Time is money, especially with local moving, so I was more than curious to see whether Rock's would be efficient or try to expand the time actually needed. I'm pleased and relieved to say they were great about doing things efficiently and carefully, saving me money and preserving the furniture. Matt and Nick arrived promptly at 8:30, the designated time. First gold star. I had two pieces of furniture, one that was long and pretty heavy, but they guys got them out of the apartment in one trip. Matt was good at guiding his less experienced helper in how to maneuver an awkward piece of furniture without damaging it. They followed me to my house and went to work, moving in the easy piece first. The second, long and heavy piece was a challenge. They had to get it up steps, miss the ceiling, which was awfully close, and not lose their grip and watch the piece go flying down the steps and through the front of the house (or crush them). Matt needed his brains and his brawn to figure out and guide his assistant and successfully got the piece of furniture upstairs and in its proper place without a scratch to anything or anyone. Job done in one hour. Very impressive.

They were excellent. We have used them in the past. It was a complete house move. They were on time and professional. We would use them again.

The guys were excellent! They could not have been nicer and more helpful. They made sure to keep me very well informed regarding the time the move was taking vs. the estimate that had been given to us (we went well over the amount but for understandable reasons - I had no concerns about this). They guys worked very hard and never even stopped for a break that I saw! They worked with my schedule, arrived at 9:30am and worked the entire day until everything was moved into the new house. Since I never saw them stop for a break, I ordered them a pizza when we got to the new house and they even waited until they were done with the move before they would stop to eat it. I was incredibly happy with the service I recieved from Rock's Moving - from the helpful associate on the phone to the guys who came to move us that day, everyone was excellent. I will continue to recommend them to anyone who needs moving services.

I contacted Rock's moving on May 22,2012 to get to an estimate on how much it would cost me to move to Citrus Springs, Florida from Saint Petersburg. I spoke to a moving consultant named Bob. After I explained to him how much I had to move, he suggested that I needed two trucks. When I ask him how much additional cost would that be , he said only $100.00. He said I would need three men and the cost would be $130.00 per hour. At no time did he mention I would be expected to pay a "travel charge" for the trip back to Clearwater. At the conclusion of the phone call I had been told that the estimate would be around $1200.00 for the move. I told him I did not have a date yet but would contact him in one week and give him the date. I called back June 5,2012 and spoke to Bob again. He said he did not remember talking to me as he speaks to many people everyday. I thought I had made it clear that I was interested in their company moving me and was just waiting for the date. He acted like he did not remember any of our conversation. Anyway I told him well I have the date are you available to move me? He said on the next day he would be able to and I agreed to that. The following day I got a written estimate of the move that was $2000.00. I was shocked, how did the cost jump so high? Bob had raised the cost of the three men to $145.00 per hour, I would have to pay an additional three hours travel time for the men to come back to the area, and now the cost of the second truck it $300.00. I was not a happy camper. Needless to say I have contacted another moving company that is giving me a fixed price. At least I will not expect an additional $800.00 at the end of the move. Maybe the reason Rock's has such good reports on Angie's List is because their movers do a good job , but if my experience with Bob is any indication of how they do business I give them an F.

They are polite clean and very nice guys. They are the best

Great Company, the guys (terrance and i forgot the other guys name) were great very gentle with my furniture and fast. I have used rocks a number of times and always had a great experience. Good job guys

The men arrived on time and quickly and efficiently loaded all the furniture and boxes carefully handling and packing any glass shelves. They provided cardboard wardrobes so we could hang the clothes for transporting. The men were polite and well-organized working like a true team never getting upset with each other. They were careful not to scratch any of the furniture. It was amazing how strong they were and how much energy and enthusiasm they put into the job. Matt was a good leader and a great coach to the team. Thank you for your amazing help!

They were really good. The movers, Walter and Big Matt, were great. I have a small child and they were very considerate of my child. They helped me pack and move me locally. If I have to move, I would definitely use them again.
