Excellent!
Description of Work: We just had a 15 mile move. J&J handled this move from beginning to end with prompt professionalism. Every person I talked to to set up the move was friendly. They explained the process and billing method in detail so we knew what to expect. Our new home is on an incline from the street and had a few steps involved. The move included a piano...we knew it was difficult but they got it in! The 4 movers were courteous and careful with our possessions. Every one of them shook our hands when done and welcomed us to our new house. They are hard-working men! We definitely recommend this moving company.

Seemed to be okay. Then the breaking of pavers at sold home. Drug gas grill through house instead around the grass. Spilled grill grease pan all over pavers. Gave me link to create claim. Filed. Said they were coming to fix. New homeowner waited, they never showed. Been back and forth with them for the past 2 1/2 weeks, nothing is still corrected for the new homeowner. When I noticed the pavers broken, the lead moving guy told me they were broke and when I went back at him explaining they were not broke that morning, he stopped and never spoke to me again the rest of the afternoon. Mt move from PA to FL was flawless (with a company from PA) but moving 1.1 miles away has been nothing but a nightmare and painful. I just hope I get my stuff back in one piece at this point. I have no faith any longer.

I have read on here a few bad reviews mixed in with great reviews of J&J Metro. All I know is I hired them and could not have been happier. Everything from requesting an estimate from their site, getting a call from their staff, and then having them complete the move for me could not have gone any better. The people that wrote the bad reviews it is literally like they are talking about a different company. This moving company is the best. Thanks again, and I will be sure to use you again as I usually move about every 24 months.

The same crew with the exception of one delivered our household goods the next morning. They were very professional and caring for our furniture and items, they even went to the extent of moving one of our very heavy items around the pool to the sliding doors due to the item not fitting through the front door. This was the second time we've used this company and highly suggest their services to anyone in need of a moving company

I used J&J Metro for my move on Friday and I was very pleased the way that the men handled the job. My new home has a stairway from h*** and these guys acted like it was a walk in the park while taking my large master bedroom set up those stairs. Nothing was damaged, but I will say they do a lot to make sure damage does not happen. They put down red runners on the entry way floors and the stairs, they put blankets on the doors, and the banisters, and used cardboard on the landing to protect the hardwood floors there. These guys definitely know what they are doing and you can tell they are professionals. Not just some guys doing this while they find a better job. Thanks again. Mike
Description of Work: They moved me from my 1 story home in Orlando to my new 2 story home in Windermere.

J&J Metro moved me into my new home on Tuesday. I was in a 2nd floor apartment in Ocoee and just moved to a small 2 bedroom home in Sanford (Lake Mary area). I originally called and spoke with Neil, he went through a series of questions regarding both of the locations as well as exactly what I was moving. The call took maybe 6-7 minutes from start to finish and at the end of the call he was able to give me an exact estimate of costs based on what I had moving. He then emailed me an estimate so that I had it in writing and outlined all of the items, the addresses, and a full outline of the costs. After calling around to several other companies and after talking to several of them they just wanted to give me a well most 2 bedrooms take 2-3 hours and our hourly rate is blah blah, and you are charged whatever it takes plus truck charge, fuel, etc. Although J&J Metro does still charge what they call a travel time, and fuel, as well as an hourly charge they actually tell you exactly how long they think it should take and in my case I was told it would be a 3.5 hour move plus the 1 hour travel time for a total of 4.5 hours. They were upfront with me, and it actually came out to just under 4.5 hours, so the cost was what I expected. Had I used one of the other companies I would have been expecting it to be 2-3 hours and would have been sticker shocked when I got the bill but by then would have been to late. Trust me when I say this, the 3 movers J&J Metro sent had no way of going faster. They made me feel exhausted just from the speed and amount of work they were doing. PS. I did tip the movers after the move which was an additional cost over the estimate, but obviously was not required I just felt I had to give these guys something for taking such good care of my furniture and boxes.

WOULD NOT RECOMMEND
Description of Work: I contacted this provider to obtain a quote on moving services labor only. The woman who answered the phone was very disrespectful. This company charges $129 per hour of moving services with two workers...BUT one of those hours is drive time. It is absolutely ridiculous to charge a customer for a worker's drive time at such a rate. This woman attempted to rely on Florida law as her guidance for justification for charging the rate for drive time. These are hourly paid workers and drive time should not be charged to a client in these instances. Clients pay for services, not driving. Additionally, she was overly concerned about the size of the furniture, which was no larger than a love seat. I have not idea why a moving company would ask how large the furniture is.

Response from J&J METRO MOVING & STORAGE
First I would like to take this time to note our company has been in business since 1968, Nearly 50 years and has provided over 90,000 quality moves for families and businesses in that time. Our number one priority is taking care of our customers needs and providing the best service in the industry. This all said I would like to clarify a few points [removed member name] has made as I have gone through our calls as they are all recorded, and I have listened to the conversation you had with one of our estimators. The call in question that Susan (one of our reps) took was handled in the professional and courteous way that all of our calls need to be handled and was not disrespectful in anyway by Susan. The call went very disrespectful when [removed member name]was told that all local moves have a 1 hour travel time which is broken down to 30 minutes for the men to get to you and 30 minutes for the men to get back to us after the job. (below clarifies the legalities of the travel time.) 1. To clarify on the hourly rate. The hourly rate that [removed member name]was quoted was $129.00 per hour which included the truck and three (3) men not two as she stated in her review. 2. To clarify the travel time, this is a charge that is regulated by the State of Florida Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services which all moving companies have to abide by with no exceptions in order for them to be a licensed moving company and operate legally. This is just like how Insurance Companies and Banks are regulated on their business practices. 3. To clarify on what [removed member name]said "she was overly concerned about the size of the furniture, which was no larger than a love seat. I have not idea why a moving company would ask how large the furniture is". As you called in to get an estimate for our services it is very important and in fact necessary for us to understand (1) what items are being moved and (2) if there are oversize items as this is necessary for us to know how many men will be needed to complete your move and how many hours it should take them. As we do moves including 600sqft apartments all the way up to 18,000sqft mansions, as you can imagine the couches, dining tables, beds, etc. are not going to be the same size within those two size homes. Again, we have been in business for nearly 50 years and have built a reputation on honesty, integrity, reliability, and have become a premier moving and storage company within Central Florida. We know that we are not the cheapest moving company in town, and in fact we take pride in that. As most people know, you usually get what you pay for, and when moving your prized possessions typically hiring the cheapest always ends in costing you more money. If you do not agree with how we charge or the pricing in which we charge then it is as simple as not hiring us. This complaint is the same as complaining to Mercedes Benz that their pricing is outrageous as you can buy a Honda for much much less. It simply is not apples to apples. If anyone has any questions, concerns, or would like to hear the phone conversation in question please contact us. Jason Bergenske Vice President

My experience with them was very good. They come to you and move you so you don't see the mover's facility. I generally have a low regard for movers but they were competent and they did a good job. I would probably use them again.

I contacted Jand J Metro moving because I needed to move my office FAST! We moved the office supplies for the most part but they came in just 4 days after I called! They packed the 3 rooms up, disassembled the furniture and moved it all from lake buena vista all the way to lake Nona! From the moment I met the movers I knew I was in good hands. Anyone can make a good impression over the phone but I was so comfortable that I have them the keys to the old and new office and asked them to take it all and set it up at the new office. I was extremely happy when I arrived at our new location to see it was all carefully moved in with no scratches or damage! I was so impressed with the ease of the move that I hired them again a week later to move my personal apartment. I had a two bedroom apartment that I needed moved. I was physically unable to move this apartment myself. They sent 3 experienced men and moved my apartment flawlessly. I highly recommend Jand J and would use them again!

Richard Callahan gave me a firm, signed quote. He was friendly and professional. AJ, Max and Gabe showed up early. These guys knew what they were doing. AJ even wrapped things I would have just thrown in a box. Since my mother moved, not too many months prior, I have seen how horrible a move could be. These men were remarkably kind, charming, professional and caring of my possessions. When I stated that something was an antique or fragile, I have never seen so much bubble wrap and tape used! They went out of their way to take care of my 'things'. They even tolerated my last minute...''two inches to the right''...''a little to the left''...etc, with good humor and graciousness. I truly hope to never move again, but if I had to, I would certainly call on these lovely people. I have never hugged a mover in my life, and I have moved many, many times. They were the exception.
Description of Work: They did some packing and a local (3 mile, 1100 sq ft home to same) move in Kissimmee.

Rick came to my home for a price estimate. He gave me a firm quote that was half the cost of the other business I called. They did a really good job with one exception. They tried to move my large (inexpensive) computer center desk without dismantling it, and it broke apart. Rick came through with satisfactory compensation. I would definitely hire him again and recommend them for your move.

IT WAS FAIRLY GOOD FOR THE PRICE. I THOUGHT IT WAS EXCELLENT. THEY COULD HAVE BEEN MORE GENTLE WITH THE FURNITURE. IT GOT A LITTLE BANGED UP. I WOULD PROBABLY USE THEM AGAIN, BUT I WOULD ASK THEM TO BE MORE CAREFUL EARLIER.
