Description of Work: Nelson and Leandro moved our furnishings from a 10 foot X 10 foot Uhaul storage locker to our 1bedroom apartment on the 11th floor in Coconut Grove Miami. They were prompt friendly polite careful and hard working. They worked steadily without taking breaks and made sure to work efficiently. As an example they grouped multiple items and loaded them into the freight elevator at the same time so they could make one efficient trip up and down many stories instead of taking one or two items at a time. Definitely saved time and money. They were also careful to wrap items. Pricing was more than fair and there wasn't a bad attitude or bad service just because we were a small job.

They did not handle very well an expensive and NEW mattress - as a result - it got dirty and one of the handles got damaged. |I also was expecting a lot more from them (based on Angie's list reviews) - They have a rep (Gabriel) who was nice but I was surprised to see that he does not even have an e-mail address with the name of the company - which does not look professional - in the website, there is a telephone and a contact (Edson - who is the owner?) - no one ever answers this phone or return calls. Overall disappointing experience, considering I did not even get a phone call to check my satisfaction - especially in regards to the materess.

Gabriel and his team were amazing. I have never had such great experience with any moving company. They were professional, courteous, efficient, prompt, and hard working. I moved half of my house back in August and will definitely use Small Time Movers again when we are ready to move the rest of the furniture and boxes. Gabriel and team, you guys rock!!! Thank you.

Gabriel did a fantastic job. They moved some heavy equipment for us which is not a norm for them. Had to use some of our equipment to help with the move as they are not equipped for such a task. So in short, as long as you have the means to assist with a heavy equipment move they can provide the labor and truck to haul it. Showed up on time, very clean looking truck, inside and out. Very easy to work with. Will use again... Armand

The job was in two phases: in March they picked up our furniture and boxes for storage where the items remain. In January we will have them delivered to our residence. (Note: I wanted to wait until the whole job was finished to do the review but persistent emails led me to respond now.)
Description of Work: Nelson and his wife were careful, respectful of our things, and helpful in suggesting which of their containers would be the most useful.

It went well. They did what was expected of them. They were a little late arriving but called to notify me that they would be late. As a result and due to apt building and elevator restrictions they ran out of time. However they negotiated with the building to get the extra time . They were very polite and professional which is rare in Miami .
Description of Work: Moved all our boxes and furniture. They dismantled furniture when appropriate and moved it to our new house. Placed all boxes and furniture in correct rooms. Reassembled furniture if required.

They were prompt, professional, and extremely pleasant and upbeat throughout the move day. The estimate done a week earlier was very close to the final price. It did end up being more than quoted but that was due to the unload up the narrow staircase took a little longer with the bigger furniture. Even with this overage, their price was extremely fair and significantly below the two other Angie's Recommended providers we got moving quotes from. We packed everything so all they had to do was move. There were a few art pieces we asked them to pack last minute, which they did but it was not the same level of packing we did on our own. We had one framed picture glass break. However, given everything they moved that seemed pretty minor. I do recommend, however, that if you have very fragile or items you are really concerned about that you go ahead pack and transport those yourself for your own peace of mind. By the end of the move day, we couldn't believe the entire crew was still smiling and joking. This is an experienced crew that clearly worked very well together. I definitely recommend them for any local move!

Mauricio and his team did an excellent job of moving all of my furniture and boxes to my new apartment. The move even included a challenging over the balcony furniture drop which the team handled with ease. All were very nice and professional. I would recommend them all day every day.

Our move was based on an hourly rate of $85, plus $85 for the truck and gas. This was to include 3 people, but 4 showed up, which was great since the move went faster than expected. Nelson, his wife, a nephew and another young man showed up right on the agreed upon time and got to work. They worked well together and the truck was loaded and on its way in 1 hour. He explained my options of wrapping all the furniture or not, I choose not to. Nothing was damaged and they were very careful each step of the move. At the North Miami destination, they unloaded the truck and asked where I wanted each piece as they entered the condo. It went very smoothly and they completed this part of the job in 1 hour also. They made the entire experience as easy on us as we could have imagined. We highly recommend them!
Description of Work: They moved us from a 2 story townhouse in Aventura to a 2 bedroom, 1 bath condo in North Miami. My wife and I had moved most of our packed boxes ahead of time so we needed only our furniture moved.

Small Time Movers were outstanding both in the services provided and the price charged for them. After another moving company backed out with little notice, the company was very responsive and easy to reach. Their people showed up 10 minutes early with gear in hand and ready to work. There was never any gruff, attitude, or anything less than absolute professionalism. Almost everything was packed and out within 4 hours, then they moved much of it into storage prior to my move out of state. I can only give highest marks to this company and its employees and would certainly use them again if the need arose!

They showed up at our agreed upon time/date and packed most of our items a few days before the actual move. Our move included packing almost all of our personal items. They work quickly, efficiently and carefully. They did underestimate the amount of items that needed to be packed which resulted in additional packing time on the day of the move and two trips to completely move all our possessions. Despite this problem, they managed to stay within our budget and come very close to their original estimate. Overall, we were satisfied with our move. We would recommend them to anyone considering a move and we would use them again when we need to move again.
Description of Work: This was a local move, about 2 miles from our old home in Coconut Grove to our new home in Coral Gables. They moved all of our furniture and personal goods in one day.

The 3-man team from Small Time Movers picked up furniture & misc. items from our daughter's roommate's house first & then loaded up the equivalent of a bedroom & living room (plus so many boxes!) from our house. They wrapped all the furniture and fragile items and methodically moved everything onto the truck in record time. Once at the apartment, they remembered which items they had picked up from the roommate's house & put them in her room. They assembled the bed and sectional sofa, they patiently rearranged the bedroom & living room furniture as we changed our minds about the configuration, cleared out the wrapping & trash, and were pleasant and helpful the entire time. We were quoted $85 an hour plus $85 for the truck, plus whatever tape & shrink wrap they used to protect the furniture & artwork ($21 in our case). The total price was $403.50, and Angie's List members are given a 10% discount. I estimated it might take 4 hours because of the two stops & having to carry everything up to the third floor, and they were done in 3.5 hours. We were very impressed with their service & great attitude, and we recommend them wholeheartedly.

Nelson and Naomy are just wonderful to work with! I have used their services twice before and they are always willing to help. Even though I called with less than 24 hours notice, Nelson was quick to accommodate my request to transport furniture I bought at Home Goods, which does not offer delivery service. Nelson and Naomy showed up on time and ready to go! Their professionalism, and attention to details (they brought covers to protect the furniture and even wrapped them with plastic) is so great that even the store personnel was impressed. So impressed, the store manager even asked for his card to refer in the future for delivery service. Thanks Nelson and Noemy for always being so willing to help,,,we consider you part of our family!

Do not use this company. The person doing the estimate for Small Time Movers was completely off when he assessed the volume a week before the move. It went from $450 to $720 and from a 4 hour job to 8.5 hours! They took one hour for lunch. For this, they took the truck half loaded to wherever place they went for lunch. They were punctual; 3 guys and a truck showed up 30 minutes early on the day of the move. The leader was the one who did the estimate. The third person was a teenager who did no lifting. He stayed on the truck and was extremely slow to accommodate the stuff on the truck because he had no idea how to do it. During the day I learned that this was his first job as a mover. So, only two guys did the lifting and that is why it took much longer. I expected 4 guys. Only 3 showed up. In fact, my wife and I had to help them with the lifting, otherwise it would have been much longer than 8.5 hours. This was a move from a 1,500 square feet living space house to a 1,800 sq f house. After two hours on the job the main person started to accusing us that we had many more boxes packed than he had estimated. It become annoying. He was wrong. It was so bad that he door of his truck did not close so we have to put a lot of stuff in our cars to help them. At the end he decided to charge us 62% more than the initial estimate. Moreover, he refused to take the 10% off coupon advertised in Angie's List, which I had printed as he asked me to do on the communications prior to moving day. Also, he intended to charge us for lending us boxes to hang clothes from the closets. They damaged valuable pieces of furniture: They did not removed the metal parts of the file drawers before they carried the furniture to the truck. Those parts were loose and damaged the closing and opening mechanisms of the drawers.

The team showed up on time, in the morning, on a weekend. The furniture was heavy (desks, file cabinets and a sofa bed) and bulky. They had to remove the doors to both rooms to get the furniture through. Then they replaced the doors when they were done. I have hired them to move my daughter's furniture from her apartment to a new one next month. I will update my review after that!

I cannot say enough good things about this service. They returned my calls (which is saying a lot in Miami), they arrived when they said they would, and the workers were very professional. The team was led by Gabriel, and his entire team was courteous, efficient, and hard working. I had no damage to any of my furniture, and they moved several very heavy items. I will use this company, and this team, for every move I veer need.
