Response from Charm City Movers
This was a move we did back in February. I never received a phone call or email regarding our service and am unsure as to why we got a low score as there is no input. There were 4 men on this move, and no notations were on the moving contract about any issues. The customer signed off on receiving her goods with no visual damage. We only moved 8 pieces and the men who did this move have been called out by name with praises in many reviews on Angie's List, so I really don't know what this rating is about. A company can do nothing about what someone sees as a bad move unless you let them know.

Description of Work: All around, this company is great. The staff in the office helped me think through ways to save on the move and were very accommodating when I made multiple changes to my plans. They also made very careful notes about special considerations for my move (e.g. newly refinished hardwood floors in my new house and possible difficulty getting the couch out of my apartment). They called the day before the move to confirm the packing list and the time the movers would arrive. | |On the day of the move, the movers arrived within the 30 minute window I had been given and were very friendly and efficient. I had three men to move the furniture from a one bedroom apartment - there was always one guy who stayed with the truck. They inspected every piece of furniture and showed me any existing damage before putting it on the truck. On the other end, they were very careful with the newly refinished hardwood floors and reinspected all the furniture with me again. | |All told, with disassembly of my bed and dresser, some time puzzling about how to get the couch out of the apartment, and a 20 minute drive, the move took just about two hours. | |I would definitely use Charm City Movers again and would recommend them to others.

Description of Work: Although Felix and Chris in the office were great and were wonderfully considerate of the stress involved in moving, the movers were not as careful with my furniture as I would have liked. Without my comments and supervision, they would have just scraped my things on the walls and doorways. My new place has brand new carpeting, it was raining, and I was told they would put down mats on the carpet. I had to ask them twice to put down the mats until one of the guys sullenly put down the mats. It would have been nicer if I could have just trusted them while I continued to pack the last few boxes. As it was, they did scratch my new coffee table. I will likely find a few more things as I finish unpacking. Sorry, Charm City. I won't use you again, nor will I recommend you to my friends or relatives.

Response from Charm City Movers
Even though you have opted not to use us again, I really do appreciate your review. I am so sorry you had a negative experience with us. We do our best over here to make each move a great one, and to see that you were unhappy really does have a negative effect on us internally as well. This was a move when we had days of rain and wind, and that is truly the worst case scenario when we are out there moving. Our pads get wet and become unusable, and our men were more than likely wet and worried about running out of dry pads. This was the 2nd move of the day for that crew as well as the 3rd straight day of rain. Please send me a photo of your coffee table. I will be happy to send out our Restoration Specialist and he will repair the scratch for you!

Description of Work: Felix was exceptional. She calmed my fears, answered all my questions & told me she would shoulder all my anxiety (which she did!) Day of my move, Quinton & his staff arrived as scheduled. Quinton also went out of his way to make the move emotionally easy for me. Furniture was handled with extreme care. Huge objects on small stairways (4 floors up) with absolutely no damage to my belongings or the building in which I moved into. In fact, following the move, the hallway & stairs to my new apt was immaculate. I would recommend Charm City movers in a nano second. My heartfelt thanks to Felix, Quinton & the staff.

Oh my {Member's name}, I am so glad that you were so happy with us. You and your daughter were a delight to work with, and we just loved spending time with you both. Quinton and his team came back from your move singing nothing but praises of you and your daughter. So nice! Thank you so much for your great review. It was truly our pleasure. Our best to you both!!

I have contacted Angie's List on this review to determine its validity. I have no record of this person ever calling our company. I have never called anyone a liar in the 17 years I have been in business. I never been accused of being rude, but rather the opposite.I have never lied about pricing. Please review the previous reviews to get the real deal on Charm City Movers!

Description of Work: It was a great experience. Will, Moses, AJ and Tony were the movers. They arrived in time. Were swift in the work and finished quickly with minimum directions. It was finished on time and without any issues. They were careful with the furniture and polite and professional. The price stayed the same as was quoted initially. I will definitely use their services again.

Description of Work: Moved 5 rooms of furniture to new house 5 miles away. Lead mover very good. Pricing system is odd. They charge by the piece they move. That is a mattress is the same as a floor lamp. Does not make sense. So you get an estimate based on what you say you have but there is always more stuff. So you pay more. I was used to a flat rate based on number of rooms. They are reliable and honest. Would use again. |

Thanks so much for your great review. Charm City Movers gives you a guaranteed rate based on what you are moving, and what your buildings look like.. By telling us what you have, we are able to personalize your move and come prepared. It also allows you to work within a budget and have some control over your move price. Prices vary, depending on what you have. You will pay more for heavier items than you will for smaller ones,but the pricing per piece is pretty inexpensive.

Description of Work: Charm City movers were excellent to deal with. Their office staff was incredibly responsive and helpful. The crew of 4 who came were efficient, professional, and entertaining as well. We only moved 10 minutes away and had them move only the big furniture (took about 3-4 hours). I would definitely recommend them.

Description of Work: Chris and Felix were extremely helpful over a period of weeks with suggestions in advance of what was a very complicated international move. Their team arrived well within the two hour window, and stayed until the job was done including help with tying down our vehicle after it as loaded onto a shipping container. I highly recommend them.

Description of Work: Moved furniture from a condo to a townhouse. Said they would be at the condo around 8, showed up at 8:30. 4 very courteous guys (Moses, Will Squirrel and Quentin) did the work, 1 guy for loading the truck, 3 to get the items moved to the truck at the condo, then all 4 unloaded at the townhouse. Took 1.5 hours to move some heavy and/or awkwardly shaped furniture down 3 flights of stairs from the condo and put it on the floor I wanted in the townhouse. Not a single scratched wall or damaged item. Very pleased.

Description of Work: They moved my furniture from a rental space into a home. They showed up on time, were very efficient (they didn't waste time) and took great care of my belongings. Quentin, the team leader, was very respectful to me and his team. He gave great direction to the guys who were on the team and was involved in every aspect of the move. He really seemed to care about the individuals on his team and was interested in making sure I was happy with everything. I had never used a moving company before and I was a little worried about how much care they would take of my things. Charm City movers exceeded my expectations and the whole experience was seamless and easy.

Great Job!
Description of Work: I used Charm City movers on two occasions in the last 60 days. The dispatcher, as were the personnel making the move, was always courteous, professional, and responsive to my request. The actual pickup, in Prince Georges County, and deliveries to Baltimore, were as agreed and expertly done. The best statement I can make is that I will happily use their services again, whenever I need something moved!

Very poor
Description of Work: I called and emailed the company to set up my move. I told them I would be ready to move Monday morning at 9 am via email. They called me that morning and told me that they booked that spot because they did not get a confirmation phone call. I suppose a confirmation email is not enough for this company. I also left a voice mail confirmation, They called back Monday to tell me they booked someone in my scheduled moved slot and time. Lack of communication! I called another provider!

Response from Charm City Movers
First, I would like to express how sorry I am that we had a potential customer who was so unhappy with our services. We truly do see ourselves as a very unique moving company, as we have always treated people as we would like to be treated ourselves.I do feel, however, like we did not deserve this rating as some of the facts have been omitted. Moving is a very stressful event in ones life, with many variables and time restraints and I completely understand how some of these facts could have been overlooked by this potential customer. We were contacted by this individual and she was given a quote on Dec 27, 2012. She emailed us back on Saturday, Jan 5 stating she wanted to move on Monday, Jan 7th. She offered no addresses in that email. Chris called her back that day, but she did not answer her phone. He did leave a message asking her to call us back as soon as possible so we could get her on the books Monday.Chris gave her his cell phone number, as he would be leaving the office, and asked her to call him as soon as she got his message. Again, we had no addresses for her move and at that point she was not on the schedule for Monday. Chris never got a phone call back, but on Sunday at 6:30pm we did get an email asking for confirmation. Unfortunately, we had left the office on Sunday at 5 p.m. and we did not see her message until Monday morning. I called her the moment I saw her message and told her that over the weekend, we had booked out all slots for Monday but would be able to move her the following day. It is very important that customers realize that if you are on a time restraint , you must call your moving company as soon as possible and let them know you need their services. An email sent on a Sunday at 6:30pm will not be viewed until the following day. This is why she was given a cell number on Saturday to call. If we were contacted back on Saturday,or even earlier in the day on Sunday, she would have been able to book her move for Monday. I offered to move her on Tuesday, but that was not an option for her as she had to work. Our reputation is a strong one. We have never aborted any move that had been previously scheduled. Also,%65 of our business is from repeat customers and referrals. Most moving companies are lucky to get even %10 of their previous moves return,so we have a lot of pride in that percentage. Again, my apologies for any inconvenience our potential customer experienced. I just wish I had the opportunity to speak with you over the weekend and we could have avoided this experience. Felix
