**PLEASE CLICK OUR SHOP BUTTON!!** ALL OF OUR DEALS ARE ALL INCLUSIVE WITH SHRINK WRAP, TAPE AND WARDROBE SERVICE!! When we started out, we wanted to streamline the moving process for clients in the Chicagoland area. We felt that the current local industry was inundated with way too many fees and charges and that customers came away feeling like they were being "nickel and dimed" for everything. What we found was that by building everything into a full service, simple quote system, with no additional fees, customers overwhelmingly responded with an unanimous thumbs up. Simple and stress free, easy to understand and easily meeting expectations. This has become our thumbprint. You will LOVE the way we move!
Carlos, Louis and Julien were on point. They estimated the scope of the project when they arrived, worked fast and efficiently the whole time, till completion. We appreciated this team greatly. Best, AK
Description of Work: We moved a 2 bedroom, 2 bath home.

Incredibly well. From the initial questions being answered virtually immediately to the hassle-free and upfront pricing, I scheduled the move for my mother. I was unable to be on either end of the move, but I just got this message from her: "2 guys--Friendly, fast, efficient, careful, helpful. Call the boss and tell him how pleased I am!" Thank you SO MUCH for making this simple for me and for making my mom happy. We'd recommend your services in a heartbeat!

This company was terrific. I chose because of the great Angie's list reviews and they were spot on. Showed up on time, crew treated my things with respect, wrapped and covered. Crew was a bunch of nice guys, felt comfortable with them. They worked hard. When I tried to step in to help, the response was "no maam, we got this." Estimate was within $100 of actual. Moving out of state in 2 years and they will be the only call I make to schedule my move.

I was very satisfied with the service provided by Blankenship Movers. The movers showed up early and I still taping and labeling boxes. They were nice enough to wait until the scheduled time to get started. They handled everything with care even a desk that said in the instructions after it was put together it shouldn't be moved. They were totally professional i recommend them highly and would absolutely use them again

4 gentlemen movers from Blankenship were on time, quick, professional, and courteous. They had all blankets, tape, boxes, wardrobe boxes, and equipment for the move. Took apart the beds and dressers and put everything back together again. This was a 4 hour/4 person "deal" and they came in just under the 4 hour mark. Both families would highly recommend Blankenship again and again!! Best money spent! A big thanks again to the men of Blankenship!!

I moved just a few blocks, and it went well overall. Crews were very punctual, respectful, skillful, and careful. However, it took longer than we estimated, and ended up adding the cost. Not the crew's fault though.

I scheduled with this company just a few days before I wanted to move, and to my surprise, they were able to fit me in. I received a time frame of 2-4 pm, Bryan called me at 1:56 to let me know that they were just finishing up their last job and would be there between 3-3:30. I believe they arrived a few minutes before 3:30 and, after showing them what was needed to be moved, they got right to work. Prior to heading out, they made sure with me that they had gotten all the belongings out into the truck. Also, it had been raining all weekend, however, neither of the two men dragged mud into the house :) After packing up, they drove to the new house and called me again to verify that I had arrived, then they brought all the boxes in, again, making no mess with the weather and brought everything into the rooms they needed to go into. They removed all plastic that they had wrapped the mattresses in. They finished around 5:00. It was, by far, the easiest move I have ever been a part of, I would hire them again in an instant. (hopefully I will not need to anytime soon though!)

There was a delay of a couple of hours because the originally assigned truck wasn't functioning so the drivers needed to get another truck dispatched. The drivers did call me to alert me to the delay (and change in trucks) and were able to meet me at the assigned Public Storage location, a couple of hours later than planned.
Description of Work: Two-part move which needed to be completed within a 4-hour time frame - Move boxes from Public Storage location in Aurora to U-Haul Storage location in Naperville. Next, Pick up furniture from my Bolingbrook residence and deliver it to residential location in city of Chicago.

Blankenship did a wonderful job. Everything was wrapped up to be moved. The truck was loaded quickly and the house was emptied out efficiently. When at the other house, it was the same thing. Quick and efficient. The guys were nice, polite and good about asking where things went. I will use Blankenship again. We are thinking about getting a piano. I was impressed by Blankenship

The Blankenship team was excellent. I used to move furniture in college and because of that experience have found my experience with other moving services to be rather negative. Having used many moving companies in the past, this was by far my best experience. The team onsite was the right size for the move, they worked quickly and efficiently and I found the all inclusive fee structure incredibly fair (they prorated additional time at the originally quoted rate). I've already recommended them to 2 other people.

Blankenship movers emphasized that they charged by the hour. They would charge extra for any time beyond the two hours in the Angies List Deal. The movers were 20 minutes late. Then they spent 10 minutes trying to unthaw the lock on their truck. They were friendly and careful with my belongings. The whole project only took an hour, so there were no extra charges.

Thank you so much for your overall great review. My apologies for the misunderstanding on the start time, but we always schedule with a one hour window in case traffic is bad and so on. You were scheduled for an arrival time of between 8 and 9 a.m., and my staff arrived and started the scope of work at 8:15 - again my apologies if there was any miscommunication as to our arrival process. And yes, like every mover we charge by the hour, with a 2 hour minimum. You purchased a 2 hour package via our storefront on Angie's List, and the my staff completed the work within the package parameters, as well as adhering to our 2 hour minimum requirements. Again, my apologies if we didn't explain this to your understanding. I want you to be fully satisfied with our service, so if there is anything I can do please call me.

The guys were friendly, explained everything that was going to happen, estimated time to move etc. They were very careful with our furniture and mindful of the new hardwood floors that we just installed when bringing in furniture. They were very patient and would stop to let me put furniture pads on each piece of furniture before they set it down. I would highly recommend these movers.

There was follow up from dispatchers to ensure all was okay. Overall, very satisfied.
Description of Work: Blankenship moved my belongings from storage location to my home. This was somewhat of a logistics problem but was resolved with constant communications with moving team. All of my belongs were checked for proper wrapping before moving, and if any prior damage or unsatisfactory packaging, it was pointed out and redone by moving team. There was a 25-30 mile distance from storage to home, and all moving was done within time requested.
