Description of Work: This company did a great job packing and moving my furniture and boxes across the country. They arrived a little late but made up for it in terms of the speed of packing and wrapping all furniture. Everything arrived at the destination in great condition. They held to their estimate (with some increases based on actual weight) and I would definitely use them again.

I was very pleased with the whole experience from scheduling the date to the last detail of the move. The three workers arrived right on time. They were courteous and highly professional. They carefully wrapped my furniture to avoid any damage. They worked quickly and efficiently wasting not a minute. One of them even offered to connect my television and DVD player while the other two set up the bed. The pricing was competitive and even a bit lower than other companies and I feel that the service was excellent. I will definitely call them to move me back to my house at the end of the summer.
Description of Work: I had Aviv move my furniture from my house which is being renovated into an apartment about a mile away.

This was the 2nd time I've used Aviv to move. It was very easy to set-up the appointment and they even gave me a discount for being a return customer. They arrived on-time on moving day, came in to survey what was to be moved and promptly got to work. They moved fairly fast and efficient. They even accommodated stopping at a storage unit once done even though I did not request this initially. The movers were great. They wrapped everything up and did not leave a scratch on anything. They even allowed me to help out. They moved everything where I wanted in the house. Overall was a great experience. My only complaint would be that on the way to the new house from the storage unit I thought they were going to follow me. Unfortunately we got separated at a light and they ended up going a much longer route adding about 25 minutes to the job. When calculating the number of hours they rounded down the start time and up the finish time so you have to watch that. Other than that, it was a great experience and great value. They were much less than some of the more well known moving companies in Boston but did a great job. I would definitely use them again and recommend them.
Description of Work: Moved 2 bedroom apartment and storage unit about 30 miles away.

They were efficient but they came extremely late. They were about two hours late. I called and they would say it'd be 30 minutes and then I would have to call back. They ended up charging me a ridiculous amount for cheap. They would basically wrap my not nice furniture and then all of my nice furniture they barely wrapped and didn't put any moving pads on it at all. For example, they wrapped a chair and then they didn't wrap my nice dresser. Overall, I didn't have that great of an experience with them.
Description of Work: They moved 5 pieces of furniture from one house to another.

I've have actually used Aviv Movers twice and have recommended them to my friends. The first time I moved, I used another moving company and had to pay my new landlord for damage to the front stair railing. The first time I used Aviv was back in 2006 to move just furniture from my parents apt. to a 3rd floor apt and they were great. They were on time, pleasant and professional. So when we moved, to our new home, I didn't have a second thought about who to call. It was the coldest day of the year and the day after a huge snow storm. Again, they were on time, professional and fast. They even laid out quilts onto the front porch and wood floors to protect them from the elements and their wet feet. I have and will continue to recommend their services. Their estimates have always been accurate and their employees are great!
Description of Work: Do ask around for estimates. Prices vary during the different times of the year and days of the week. Mid-week is usually cheaper. Do be ready for them as in my experience, they have always been on time. They even called to say they were on their way.

I was selling a Boston condo and moving to a condo in Los Angeles during 2010, I was ready to live in California by April 2010, but didn't finally sell my condo until July of 2010. So I had Aviv move my essentials but leave enough for staging the Boston condo for sale, then move the rest of my belongings after the sale. They were really great at working with me to create two separate estimates and help support my packing needs for each move. For the first move I was in Boston and the second I was in LA, so they had to be responsible to manage things with just a friend of mine to oversee at one place each time, and they contracted with a company to do the long distance move and unload the stuff in LA. After all the horror stories I've heard about long distance moves I have to say this was done with professionalism and met or surpassed my expectations for effective communication, tracking, care of handling and price/value. I liked working with their people, I got quick call back and helpful people on the phone, there were no inconsistencies or missing pieces of information between the phone, the actual people at my house, and the people who delivered my stuff in LA. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend these guys and use them again for another move.
Description of Work: Aviv moved my furniture and belongings in 2 stages from Boston MA to Los Angeles CA. They coordinated with me what needed to go at each stage, supplied boxes, some moving supplies and some packing support, and executed the 2 moves. The first in April 2010 the second in July of 2010.

The day we moved out of our place it was the hotteset day of the year and the move took all day instead of the three hours we estimated. That was our fault, we were not as ready as we should have been and didn't realize that everything needed to be itemized before it went into storage so it took a while. Despite the heat and having to pack things they guys never complained and stayed professional. On the day of delivery, they were on time and things went much faster. The only complaint is that there were a few broken items but nothing major.
Description of Work: Moved form condo cambridge to home needham with a week between so our stuff was put in storage.

They were very proffesional. They came on time, started wrapping the furniture with plastic wrap and cloths to avoid any damage. There were 3 of them and they moved swiftly, did not waste any time. They unassembled the bed frames and assembled it back perfectly at the new location. Overall I was very satisfied with their service and I would recommend them highly.
Description of Work: They were hired to move our 2 bedroom, living room, kitchen, 2 bath home. They charge 90 bucks/per hr (min 3hrs).

They arrived on time in 2 locations. They were thorough and professional; furniture for the interestate move arrived well-wrapped and protected. The local movers with whom I spent the day were efficient, resourceful and terrific. Both moving trucks unloaded without incident and they were patient about "put this here" decisions. They returned the next day with a small glass tabletiop inadvertantly left on the truck. I would use them again without hesitation and have recommended them.

The movers did an excellent job. The four guys who did the moving were professional, quick, and very careful with all our stuff. They are strong guys, and even though they could have wheeled things like office chairs, they carried everything instead, probably to not make any scratches on our floor. They put everything where we wanted them, and charged very little for packing tape that was used wrap cloth around our furniture. (They charged slightly less than Home Depot charges for the same tape). The only negative is that they arrived 20 minutes late because my move was in the afternoon, and they did some else's move in the morning. Overall, I had a great experience with this company and would use them again.
Description of Work: They moved our furniture and boxes from a 3 bedroom condo to a 3 bedroom house.

They were fine. The price was high. They insisted on a certain tip for each of them which we felt was kind of extortionist. They shouldn't have been able to decide how much we would tip. They were very courteous and efficient. They were great but when it came time for the bill, it was too high.

I have moved at least a dozen times in the last 30 years. These were the best, most careful movers I've ever had. Besides doing an outstanding job, they were especially courteous and helpful. Raul Delacruz has the best team in the business. I have told everyone I know what a great job they did. Moving is tough, and they did everything possible to make it easier for me.
Description of Work: I moved from an apartment in Newton to an apartment in Needham. I had several large pieces of furniture and over 100 boxes packed. They packed the kitchen and the large framed pictures for me, and moved everything.

The movers showed up exactly on time. They cleared out all the boxes in relatively short order. The furniture was carefully wrapped and secured. They have their own tools to help take apart any furniture that is transported better in pieces (tables, mirrored dresser, etc.) No damage was done to the apartment in the process of moving everything out. At the new place, they were able to move all the furniture in pretty quickly, including some furniture I was sure would never make it in. I was impressed with their tenacity and willingness to find a solution and not give up. The entire job was done in 5 hours. The crew was professional, very strong, and very competent. All the furniture was where we wanted it. Nothing appears to have been damaged in the move.

They were there right away, and the move went fairly smoothly. They were very prompt and very obliging in terms of moving the furniture around. They stayed within the estimate that they gave me. They were very nice guys, and I had no problems with them.

Aviv was wonderful - they showed up on time, were very friendly and professional, and the four men moving were experts who really knew how to take care of our things and make the most efficient use of truck storage and time. This is heavy, back breaking work and they did it all with a smile. You could tell they really wanted us to be happy with the end result, and nothing was broken - which sounds obvious but it really was amazing. I would recommend them in a heartbeat, and can't say enough good things about them. Prices are a STEAL (I paid $109 an hour for 4 men and a truck) and given how great they were, and what wonderful work they did, I would have thought nothing of paying double that.
Description of Work: We just completed a one bedroom apartment move from one end of the South End to the other. There was a lot of furniture and a ton of really heavy items, such as books and kitchen appliances. Our new place, despite only being the second unit, had some really steep stairs and a fairly narrow hallway.

They are by far the cheapest movers around, and they do a great job. They show up on time, have not broken anything at all in three moves, work quickly and neatly. Every time I've moved I've called around to get estimates and they always have the cheapest rate quote per hour, and usually give me more men for that price! They usually have coupons available on their website for free boxes. Make sure you call ahead and tell them what size boxes you want, because they don't keep them all in the office.
Description of Work: I've used them to move locally 3 times.
