I scheduled my move with Bob 4+ weeks before the moving date. I was concerned with the lack of professionalism from the start; there was formal quote or confirmation of services. He said that he would text me the week before to confirm date/time again. He never reached out, but I did and never received a response. I called a few days later to confirm and he said all was good to go. Then I received a text less than 24 hours before my move that he had the cancel the job. No phone call or explanation. I called because I was in desperate need of a mover. I offered to get a UHaul if he could provide the labor but he told me he gave his guys the "day off". I've read other reviews and it seems like he cancels last minute quite frequently, which is the last thing you want in a mover. I would not recommend.
Description of Work: Moving to a different apartment in downtown Indy

Bobs called her at 9p the night before to cancel the job with no attempt at "making it right". I tried to call on her behalf (Because she was in tears) to even set something up the following day if he'd pay the apartment fees for not moving out on time. He said no. I asked him if he'd please make it right as she shouldn't be punished for his unprofessional nature. He said, "No. I don't have to." (Third grade education, I'm guessing) I told him we have you in text agreeing to the job, just make it right. He went off about what an @$$hole I was for threatening him and a few other colorful descriptors and hung up. I called back three times to say I just needed him to make this right and not leave her hanging. No threats just, do the right thing and honor your word. He repeatedly hung up on me with of course threats about not calling him anymore. This mover is a low class idiot with a truck and a pay as you go cell phone. Your business definitely does not matter to him as his phone message says. I'd hire crack addicts on work release before I'd recommend bob for anything! (Since you get the review sent to you bob, I hope you feel good about your business etiquette "leaving single moms high and dry on mothers day!" That should be your new phone message)
Description of Work: DO NOT USE THIS IDIOT!!!! He cancelled the job the night before mothers day on a single mom. Heartless bob, heartless. My friend, a single mom, hired bob to move SOME of her bigger items (She moved all the rest herself) from an apartment to a condo and the only day bob was available was the Sunday before her lease was up, mothers day.

It went well. Bob and his crew arrived a little later than they said, but it was to no detriment to my move. We got all my things packed up and moved into my new residence downtown. I also moved from a two story home into a third floor apartment. His crew was great and respectful. I really appreciate their service.
Description of Work: Needed to move from zip code 46239 to 46208. I called less than 4 weeks before my move date and was able to secure moving.

I secured Bob's Moving for an afternoon move on June 3rd. He mismanaged his calendar so that his morning move took too long. He did not communicate any timing issues with me, only providing information reluctantly when I called him. He eventually told me he could not complete move because two employees quit on him that day. Bob's Moving is not a professional moving service. Bob actually got mad at me for not being interested in using him for a move the next day, as if he could actually be trusted to complete a transaction based on this experience. If you call Bob, you will get a quote well below the competition. Do not fall for this - it will be too good to be true. Signed, Still Living Out of Boxes
Description of Work: The mover fell through the day of the move, with no proactive communication.

Description of Work: Bob called the night before the move. His truck broke down. He had told me previously he had two trucks but now said only one. I changed my move to two days later but got another call the night before that move suggesting I "look at other options". Horrible experience. You can't hire another mover at a moments notice!!!!

Bob scheduled a time with me in less than 2 weeks to set up a move date. I had all the boxes packed up but still had a couch, office set, and a queen size sleigh bed that had not been dis-assembled. He and he two movers were great. They were mannerable, swift, and cordial.
Description of Work: This provider moved me from a one bedroom duplex in Southwest Indy to a home in Southport on a Saturday.
