Pikesville 495 Moving Company

His quote was much more than double what the other moving companies quoted. And he had not seen the property I wanted moved. When I told him his numbers were so far out of line, he spoke with his manager, who agreed to take $2000 off it, but it was STILL several thousands more than every other company I spoke to.

I was happy that Monti was able to make an appointment within days after our conversation. The other moving companies were at least a week or two to give an estimate. Monti and Nate were at least an hour early. They were both pleasant and friendly. I explained my expectations of the move and how I would like two estimates, one for a direct move, and one the usual way. After going through the house (Monti took notes on everything), Monti explained that the quality of furniture would be considered a and quot;love move, or white gloveand quot; due to the type and quality of some of the pieces, which included some marble pieces. He went through each room including the garage. Shortly after we drove over to the storage unit. Monti and Nate were very appalled at the conditions of the furniture which wasn't wrapped in pads or shrinked wrapped and was sitting on the floor as well of the state of the boxes. To be fair- some of the boxes had been reopened by myself. But I knew that the first movers had done a rush job. Nate stated that they would need to repack everything (not our shared sentiments). About twenty four hours or less I received a call from Monti informing me that he had sent me the two quotes. I reviewed the quotes but was immediately surprised at the cost of over $19900.00 plus. The price included $3000.00 for the direct move and $4000.00 for packing. Now, I don't know what people pay to move these days, but the price was enough to make me reconsider using a moving company. Monti followed up at least twice stating that he was willing to work with me but I honestly was in such sticker shock that I even cancelled the other appointments for estimates after speaking with my husband. I looked into using PODs and other modes of moving my worldly goods on the internet and came to a solution and price that suited what we were looking for. I am rating 495 Movers on their professionalism because it's obvious I didn't hire them. However, service is important to me and based on their punctuality and follow up I would recommend them. Their price was just too high for me.
