Tim was willing to help with very little notice. He notified me when he was on the way to the apartment as he had said he would. They were on time and went to work immediately. They were very careful with the items we were moving and even helped take some items to a dumpster that we were not moving. When they got to the house, they were as careful unloading and trying to help with furniture placement. Very professional and I will most certainly recommend Tim Pratt and will will call again when I need help moving!
Description of Work: Called Tim Pratt on VERY short notice. He was willing to help the very next day. It was a small job but extremely important to us. He moved some large items from an apartment to a house and volunteered to move items that were not even in the contract.

Great experience. Two movers worked hard to get me moved within 5 hours. They called to let me know that they were running late due to traffic. I forgot about the travel time that was included in my special rate but that was OK since my move was a short distance.

We couldn't have asked for more. The job was completed on time, exactly at the estimated cost Tim had provided us. Pratt Van Lines is locally owned, high quality, totally reliable...clearly the best we've encountered here in Albuquerque.
Description of Work: Packed up breakables, large items, furniture and everything we couldn't box ourselves. They did an excellent job with that. Then they loaded everything onto the pods we had had delivered, for moving from New Mexico to Washington. Tim and his workers provided the necessary packing materials, Tim himself oversaw the packaging of the breakable and large items, such as a flat screen TV and computers. Then they loaded everything into the pods. When they arrived in Washington, everything was in excellent condition. No breakage or damage whatsoever.

Description of Work: Tim did two jobs for us. First moving boxes of books to a storage location and then moving furniture and boxes from our former residence to our new location.

About three weeks ago Pratt moving company helped my husband and I move from a three bedroom two bath house into a two bedroom two bath apartment on the second floor. My husband and I have moved approximately five times in the past six years and have always done the moving ourselves but Due to a time restraint we had to use movers. I went on to Angie's list and saw the awesome reviews that Pratt moving had and decided to use them. Not only did the owner of the company come to our house to give us an estimate but he also gave us wardrobe boxes to use. The day of our move they were within 30 minutes of the time they told us they would be there, and because of our budget we gave them a heads up that we wanted to try and make things go as quick as possible and without any hesitation the two movers started loading up our house and did not stop until they were done. Pratt Moving was extremely professional, safe, and took care of our stuff as if it was their own. We can't thank them enough for making our move much smoother then we would have ever expected. We definitely recommend them and would use them again ?

Th movers were very friendly and professional. They provided their own truck so I didn't have to rent one from uhaul. One of the movers had to leave early so Tim (the president) came to finish the job. One of my pieces did get damaged, but Tim sent me a check for the amount I paid for it. The job took thirty minutes over the time I had already paid for. Even with the extra time I couldn't beat the cost. Overall I was very happy with the services and would definitely use them again.

These guys were fabulous! Polite, helpful, understanding. They packed with blankets, moved a very large 9-drawer chest through a very narrow place without a hitch, and dealt very intelligently with a deaf, cranky old lady. We ALL were so impressed with this group and how well they accommodated our needs! Would call them back without a hesitation!

They were very efficient and professional! They wasted no time and wouldn't even stop for a minute to drink the coffee and bagels I offered them. They waited until the job was done and took it with them. I would hire them again without any hesitation!
Description of Work: Two men, one was the company owner and a 14 ft truck arrived early to my rental in ABQ to move a small one bedroom household to a home in Placitas. They had furniture pads, tied down solid in the truck, and generally very professional. I took advantage of the special deal from Angie's list of a three hour, two man move for $129.00. When I ran out of packing tape, they offered me a roll without charge.

Moving crew were very professional. Very happy with their efficiency, speed, and care with personal items.
Description of Work: Pros: Movers were excellent. Wrapped all fragile items in moving blankets. Loaded and unloaded items quickly and efficiently. Great attention paid by movers and no items were damaged. Moved items to a second location within the 3 hour time frame in the Angie's List deal. Cons: Angie's List deal quoted 2 movers and truck for 3 hours. Crew arrived early at 12:30 pm and finished at 3:30pm. Additional fee of $105 to cover travel time for crew to return to office location in Rio Rancho - not disclosed in deal details.

Forget every moving horror story you've ever heard -- it won't happen with Tim Pratt's company. He is an astoundingly honest, capable, thorough and careful man -- and he requires the same of his employees. Not a piece of furniture -- or expensive artwork or stained glass window -- was broken. Nothing was scratched. Everything was meticulously wrapped, sometimes in several layers. They moved me in the season's first snow storm, without complaint and without mishap. The move was flawlessly accomplished and as stress-free as any move could be. I recommend this company without reservation.

Our first contact was responded to promptly and Tim came out to see what needed to be moved. On moving day, the guys were on time. They took extra care to wrap our furniture and not damage anything. They worked constantly to ensure that our move took place within the time limit of the special offer. They were polite and professional. I would not hesitate to use Pratt Van Lines again.

th we two gentlemen arrived very promptly, set to work immediately, wrapped all of my furniture in moving blankets with great care, delivered to my new second story apartment without the slightest damage or mishap. THEN they went two other locations where. I had furniture being stored for me, picked that up also and delivered it -with all the work being completed in exactly the time quoted. The movers were very professional, courteous, capable, and careful! Will definitely hire again!

Excellent job. Punctual, careful with everything, well-wrapped and secured on truck. Especially helpful getting a dresser down a tight stairway that required disassembling steps. Great experience!

Was not used to move as he did not have any open days when we finally got the word to go ahead with the move.
Description of Work: They brought 8 wardrobe boxes for us to use. We packed them and were glad to use them as they saved me work. We agreed on a price and date, which kept changing due to the mortgage company not closing on the date promised. I had to change date about three times to accommodate the VA. Finally I was told that I could take possession of the house, but could not get the day we needed as Pratt was very busy at the end of the month. We began doing the moving ourselves and Then called for Pratt to pick up his wardrobe boxes. He was very nice and I am sorry we weren't able to use his Company.

They did a great job. Tim Pratt was courteous and professional from our initial conversation. He came out to give us an estimate as to the number of trucks and time needed, and he was right on. He clearly knows what he is doing. On moving day Ed and crew carefully wrapped all of our furniture in blankets before loading into the truck and unwrapped them at the other end before putting them in place. They took good care of all of our possessions. This was a two-day move and we had Ed both days. He is the ultimate professional, friendly and yet very focused on his work, careful and efficient. Eric and D.J. were also wonderful. I would definitely recommend Pratt Moving to anyone who needs to move. Moving is not fun but they made it less stressful.

The initial contact went well. An appointment was made (and kept) for a look at the volume and access to be sure the team and truck size were appropriately chosen. The truck and two man team arrived on time and got busy immediately. The loading and unloading were fast but careful. The men were pleasant and efficient. We would use this moving company again and enthusiastically recommend them.

Tim Pratt not only supervised the move, he worked w/his crew. The first job was done professionally and quickly. They were done in less than 2 hrs. We have two more jobs for him. For our other moves, I researched, I learned about many "war stories" from clients who hired other movers. I wouldln't hire anyone else but Pratt Van Lines.
Description of Work: Tim Pratt will be doing more moving, since it involves more than one trip: i.e., to consignment house 2x, and then to our new address.

.I told the whole story under the services performed section.
Description of Work: This is the third time in three years that we have used Tim Pratt to move my elderly mother. The first time was a move of 300 miles from Southeast NM to Rio Rancho. The last two times were from one apartment to another. Tim has crews that work for him, but with each move, he has been personally involved in the move, or showed up to watch the movers. The men who work for him are professionals. They arrive on time and are very courteous. They pack everything very carefully. My mom has lots of art and fragile pieces. Not one has ever been broken by the movers. They work quickly. At times, they have had to take my mom's furnitures to different locations as she "downsized." Each time, the correct pieces were brought to the correct locations. The movers set the furniture up where you want it, including hooking up tv. I hope I never have to move my mom again, but if I do, I will not consider using any mover othr than Tim Pratt. Another thing I like about Tim is that he provides a written contract with the actual amount of money per hour you will be charged.
