J & P Moving Service, Inc.

Great moving crew...they were very professional and friendly. Nothing was damaged or lost and the job was completed on budget & ahead of schedule. I'd definitely plan to use them for my next move.

The office, provided a courtesy reminder call prior, the crew, contacted me the day of the move. Everyone was courteous and professional.

It was a very smooth move. All the movers were very polite and concerned to meet the wishes of the homeowner.

The guys did an awesome job & well very carefully. Went above & beyond. I will use them again.

It has been excellent so far. The first part of the move went really, really well. The movers were very professional, friendly and hardworking.

Wonderfully. This was the scond move JP moving did for us. They are awesome.

Great! The crew, was on time and very friendly. The move went very smoothly.

From the moment they arrived, they were friendly, efficient and went above and beyond in the pouring rain to get it all moved within my time allotment. Recommend and would use them again in an instant!

Did a great job, prompt, careful and courteous.

The office crew (especially Bonnie) is wonderful and professional as he 5 moving “stronger”. Would highly recommend this company.

They called before they arrived worked did gently were very-professional.

From the website to the inventory list for the estimate through the several phone conversations and onto the move, the entire experience was great. Very professional, yet friendly and genuine. Kenny and his crew were hard working and consistently pleasant. They worked hard to get us moved in under the time estimate, which they did by 30 minutes, andthey expressed disappointment It wasn't by more. I would definitely hire them again and recommend them highly. The price was more than others quoted, but I believe you get what you pay for. No nickel and diming with this company.

Fantastic! The crew was great and a pleasure to work with!

Arrived as scheduled, assessed the items to be moved, got to work quickly and moved furniture efficiently. Very professional.

J.P. Moving were prompt in response. The movers were pleasant and arrived on time. Everything done in a timely fashion. Even though price seemed a bit high to me I would hire again.

Antony, Dan and Frank were professional, courteous, very careful with my furniture and efficient. Move too much less time than I expected and a pleasure to work with.

Overall we had a very positive experience with JP Moving. Administrative - We were very pleased (and relieved!) that the administrative office was able to squeeze us in to their schedule on such short notice, especially the last week of the month. They were also willing to work with us to accomodate our unique situation of needing storage services overnight. However, they were not very up-front with us on pricing when we received the inital estimate and left out several "extra costs" that can add up significantly. When my husband received the estimate, he asked if there were any additional charges we needed to be aware of that aren't part of the hourly rate or flat truck rental fee. The rep said no, so we thought we were in the clear. They failed to disclose that they charge $40 (!) per item for wrapping and boxing, which in our circumstance was necessary for 2 TVs and 2 large, framed paintings and mirrors. Fortunately, the guys who moved us were able to wrap some of these items without the box in blankets and with shrink wrap which came at no added cost, but be forewarned - if you need them to pack any large, fragile items in a box you are going to have to pay! The office also did not ask us for a detailed list of how much we had to move, so the guys were not as well-prepared with supplies as they could have been, particularly wardrobe boxes. In the end they were creative and we found a way to make it all work, but the office could have helped them do their job better by being more thorough upfront. Moving Day(s) - We could not have been more pleased with the men who moved us. In particular, Anthony (the team lead) and Daniel were absolutely fantastic to have on the move. They were very professional, attentive to detail, addressed our questions and concerns, and moved us out in a very careful manner. The total move time took longer than we anticipated, but it was largely due to the team being so careful with our items (and we had a lot of stuff), so for me it was worth the added hourly expense to ensure our belongings made it through the move safely. We moved into a brand new house, so we were very worried about not damaging the brand new floors, walls, and other fixtures in the house. The team was willing to wrap fragile areas in the home and paid close attention throughout the move-in process to not damage the house. We had no issues or damages in the entire move, so we were thrilled! Recommendation - I would definitely use JP Moving again given the quality of the team and the move itself, but be sure to ask LOTS of questions about pricing upfront and be proactive about supplying a detailed inventory of items to move to help the team come better prepared.

Anthony and Mike called on the way to our home, arrived on time and began working. They were efficient, pleasant and very careful with all items in our home and with those to be moved. Things that needed to be wrapped were done without any prompting from me and the few questions I asked were answered in full. When delivering at the new location they worked in the same way and finished on time. It's nice to have hired a company that does what they say they are going to do and at the same time be great to deal with! Fantastic job!!

I contacted JP Moving for a cross country move based on good reviews on Angie's List. I sent them a detailed inventory of all my items and attached a link to view my house which was listed for sale and under contract so they could see everything. They initially quoted me $3400-$3700 for a move from Chicago to Boca Raton, Florida. They requested a visit to review my furniture so we scheduled a visit. When they came, they were able to view all the furniture on my list. They came on a Friday and were aware that I needed movers the following Monday. After an assessment, they came back inflating the original quote ($3400-3700) as shown below: QuoteBased on the information you provided, cost is as follows: Materials: ................................................. = $133.00 Tariff: .................................................... = $6,489.96 Miscellaneous Items: * STAIR CARRY @ ORIGIN ..................................... = $350.00 * SHUTTLE FEE @ ORIGIN ..................................... = $420.00 Estimated Cost: ................... $7,392.96 Our Discount to you is: ........... $2,831.98 Total Price: ...................... $4,560.98 TOTAL ESTIMATE: ................... $4,560.98 THIS QUOTE DOES NOT INCLUDE ANY PACKING IF NEEDED. Not only was every item over-estimated in weight, but they added several new items that was not in the original quote even though they were aware of the facts from my previous correspondence to them (Stair Carry, Shuttle Fee, Materials).Initially, you might think that the actual weight would be more after seeing the items, but it's the reverse. Let me give you some examples: A floor lamp (cheap plastic kind you buy at Walmart) which weights about 10 lbs was put down as 63 lbs. A plastic animal crate which weights about 15 lbs was put down as 70 lbs. A wooden child safety gate which weights about 15 lbs was put down as 70 lbs. A hard shell guitar case which weights about 20 lbs was put down as 110 lbs. A bbq grill which weights about 50 lbs was put down as 140 lbs.I can go on. Facts don't lie. After getting weighed by another company, my stuff amounted to 4700 lbs even with items which accounts for an additional 15-20% beyond what JP Moving had on their list that I added later. JP Moving's estimate after reviewing all my stuff was 6000 lbs. The other moving company did not charge me additional fees for moving up/down 4 flights of stairs or shuttle fees for carrying furniture through my garage to the back alley where the truck was parked. As you can see from the detailed quote I pasted, they arbitrarily provided me with a discount of $2,831.98. Was I supposed to fall for this because they are giving me a great deal? The original price before the discount would have equated to $1.08 per lb. If you get quotes from other movers, it is in the ballpark of $0.68 to $0.76 per lb. Just because I had to move in 2-3 days, I guess they thought I was desperate so they decided to pad on the charges. In my opinion, you should avoid these guys unless you are okay with inflated charges and possibly surprises when you get the final bill. I'm glad I went with the other company that I found on Angie's List. I don't like honest people getting taken so this review is to make other aware of my experience with this vendor.

I've tried the U-haul route before. JP was much better and in the final accounting cheaper due to the skill of their crew. I quoted several other movers - and although JP quote was higher - their cost structure was better - and the ultimately cam.JP was better and in the final accounting cheaper due to the skill of their crew. I quoted several other movers - and although JP quote was higher - their cost structure was better - and the ultimately came in well below quote. The team was courteous, they carefully handled my furniture and very attentive to my wife and my requests. Hope not to move again - but if I do - it will be with JP.

This could not have been a better experience.

I called JP moving, and Patty was very nice and scheduled it the next day. The workers came on time and did a good job. It took them a while to arrive my home from Costco. We left costco at the same time, but I waited at home about 20 mins before they arrived.

They were a little late for the actual move but not much. The woman that did the estimate was very quick so I was somewhat concerned but I've realized that she just knows her stuff! The guys that did the actual move were great; they worked hard and protected our furniture well. They had quite a challenge at our home as we have an addition being put on so they couldn't access the front door but had to deliver everything through the basement or by climbing a flight of stairs up to our deck. As alot was being put in the basement anyway, this was an advantage since they were able to pull their truck right around to our walk out basement. But several of the largest items had to be carried up a flight of stairs (or two). At least three times, due to miscommunication between my husband and myself, one of them carried something up the flights of stairs only to have to turn around and carry it back down to the basement. Through it all, they kept a great, friendly attitude! We are very satisfied and would recommend them to anyone for a long-distance move.

I contacted the company on 9/15/2011 to schedule a move for October, and the date I wanted for 10/20/2011 was available. I planned to get my own boxes and pack and label them, so nothing had to be done as far as that. The move was from a 2-bedroom, 2nd-floor apartment which also had additional stairs, to a one-story home. The scheduling went without a hitch and they showed up on time. Angie's List members are offered 5 free wardrobe box rentals and free delivery of moving supplies. I didn't take advantage of either one. I preferred to buy new U-Haul wardrobe boxes and get them packed up before move day. I was stressed out on move day but the 3-man team arrived on time and made me feel comfortable because they were friendly and easy to work with. I still had some packing to do while they were moving me out, hence the stress. I had approximately 55 boxes. I liked that they charge a flat rate by the hour (so there were no surprises financially) and provided a three-man team. I didn't want a company that only provided two men as there are many advantages to a three-man team, based on my prior moving experiences! They wrapped up and protected my furniture for me. Everything was moved without any damage. The estimated time of 3 hours was close--it was 3.5 hours, which I expected it might be. They even set up my bed for me! I wasn't sure whether or not they would do that. So, I highly recommend them based on their flat hourly rate and strong backs!

The move went extremely well. The team arrived on time on a Sunday morning, introduced themselves to me and my Uncle and got right to work. We walked through the condo and I showed them what needed to be done. My Uncle's chair needed to be the the last thing on the truck, and the first thing unloaded, so he would have a seat during all of the activity. They wrapped all of the furniture in blankets, brought the wardrobe boxes mentioned in the Angies list ad, and worked promptly and efficiently. They had a 3 man team which made things go very smoothly. Once they got going, two guys carried stuff down, and the third packed the truck. We only filled part of the truck, but everything was neatly and tightly packed at the front of the truck and strapped so it would not shift during the drive. At the new place they unloaded his chair first, so he could sit while the unloading progressed. Everything was unloaded quickly, and set up in the new space. The glass tops of the dressers, and the glass curio cabinet arrived safely. They moved the curio cabinet around a bit until it was in the right spot. Most importantly, they were friendly and respectful to my Uncle. Our move was completed in less time than expected, so we were only charged for the actual time of the move plus the truck charge as per the agreement. I was happy that we were under the amount quoted in the phone estimate, and only had to pay the minimum move charge. It's hard enough moving yourself, let alone an elderly relative. My Uncle is a retired policement, so he is skeptical by nature. For him to say that these guys worked hard, knew what they were doing, and were well worth the price is a very high compliment. I agree. From my perspective, if even something minor had not gone well, I would have been hearing about it for a long time. He has been living in the new place for about two weeks now, and is acclimating well. So I'm delighted for a variety of reasons.
