It went very well. I was convinced that my extra long couch would have to be cut up to remove it but Matt C and Fred were able to get it out without cutting it up. They were very careful not to damage my wood railings or painted walls. They arrived promptly and completed the job in twenty minutes. I was a bit surprised at the price since I had the impression from the website that it would be between $200 and $300 but I was told that because of the length of the couch that it would be more. All in all, I was very satisfied.

They were great! Our move was complicated and took longer than expected, but the College Hunks guys kept at it until everything was done and did so with professionalism and good humor. We had a very good experience and we'd definitely hire them again.

They arrived a few minutes early. They were clean courteous, knowledgeable and capable. We paid them to haul away some things we wanted to get rid of and to move some relatively heavy awkward objects from one room to another. They did the job quickly and carefully. I would hire them again for sure.

Two young men arrived at the stated time. They gave me an estimate to dismantle a wooden shed and remove it from the property. They were able to include the removal of some of the the stuff in the shed as part of their estimate. They explained what they were going to do and how long this would take. Once we said yes, they worked quickly to to get the job done. They were extremely polite and responsive to our needs. I would not hesitate to use them again.

They were truly excellent beyond expectations. They did 2 jobs for me. First they loaded a POD to be put in temporary storage--in Bay Ridge Brooklyn, this is no easy feat but they hoisted 50+ boxes and some furniture up onto the flatbed and then leaped up to load the POD all in 55 minutes! A few months later they moved another 50+ boxes and most of my furniture, drove 70 miles and offloaded it into my new home. Efficient, pleasant to work with, on time and not a thing was broken or damaged. Great guys.

They were fine. However, I was disappointed because they promised to donate some of the items and give me a receipt for the donated items, but they did not do that. The said items were my Father's and I wanted to make sure they were donated.

The truck was several hours late. Then the truck was not big enough could not provide an additional truck went till late hours of the night because they had to bring back original truck. Not enough movers provided, not very experienced. Young guys from college, not movers. A nightmare. Broken furniture, I wish I didn't have to leave this negative feedback. Very upsetting.

Response from College Hunks Hauling Junk and Moving
College Hunks Alum, Thank you for taking the time to write us a review. We greatly appreciate our valued clients feedback. Let me begin by apologizing for your disappointment in our Moving and Junk removal services. Our passion to change these industries for the better and our mission to truly "Move the world" pushes us over and beyond towards striving to provide a stress-free experience for all of our clients. We take it very seriously in the rare occasions that we miss the mark. After reviewing the details of the job with my team, I see that you had hired us for a full service move and junk removal. Our move team was there within the arrival window and from my records you were satisfied with the move service. My managers notes show that the issue began over a misunderstanding with our Junk Removal service. Our Junk trucks are different sizes than our moving vans and our junk pricing is fully transparent and based on the volume put in the truck. It includes all the labor, removal and disposal with no hidden charges. Our crew told you that the Junk removal you wanted would be about 2 trucks and to save time they could load it in the moving van so you didn't have to wait for the junk team to come later in the day. This is where the real misunderstanding and issue began. Our Junk trucks are larger than all of our main competitors in the industry, however, Our largest moving van is the equivalent of 4 junk truck loads as was explained onsite, however, your expectation was that we would charge 1 truckload price to fill up the entire moving van. After the move truck was loaded with the 2 trucks of junk removal you refused payment of 2 truckloads of Junk Removal. You wanted proof that it was that much and I completely understand and don't blame you for that. I would want to know as well. We honored your request and sent a junk team to your home to unload the junk out of our moving truck and into our junk truck. Sure enough, it was a little over 2 full truckloads of junk and we honored our original quote of 2 trucks and completed the job. This is what delayed the job and took so long as it was our junk team that couldn't arrive during the move. I apologize for that situation with the junk team and that is why we offered to load the moving van but it seems that caused more confusion rather than alleviate the stress as we intended. After the junk trucks were loaded, you were upset with our manager and still wanted to pay for 1 truckload of junk. At this point we did everything we could including bringing the junk team and only charging for the 2 trucks and needed to be paid for our service. You did pay in full and even tipped our men for their hard work seeming happy overall in the end. We certainly appreciate your business and your generosity to our team and apologize that our promise of a stress-free experience was not delivered to your or my satisfaction. We took every step possible to make up for that and I hope we have the opportunity to "WOW" you and deliver a stress-free experience in the future. As far as your mention of damage, we don't have any record of an official claim filed, however, we do have records from our manager that states a piece of glass on the side of a curio cabinet was broken and our manager contacted you immediately while our movers were still onsite to set up a time for our glass repair company to come out and fix it. You went on vacation for a week right after the move and we had the company come out and fix the glass for you as soon as you returned. Of course, we covered all costs for this damage. Our managers notes show that you were happy with this quick response and the repair of your damaged item. I'm sorry for any inconvenience caused with this and I'm happy we were able to rectify the situation to your satisfaction right away. In the rare occurrence that something is damaged, we respond to all claims within 24 hours and come to a resolution within 72 hours of receiving all information from our client. We always go above and beyond what NYS regulations direct us to do. NYS dictates movers answer written claims within 30 days, resolve them within 90 days and without full protection valuation purchased, movers are only obligated to pay out .30 or .60 cents per pound up to $2500 for an entire shipment depending on whether it is intrastate or interstate. These particular regulations are not fair to the consumer in most cases and are grossly below our standards of customer service, so we have never exercised our right to use them. We always go above and beyond and take care of anything that we may be responsible for. Movers that stick to these NYS regulations obviously are providing terrible customer service and our mission and passion is to change the moving industry for the better, starting with our management, sales team, office staff, customer service and most importantly our educated, well trained, uniformed, background checked, athletic clean cut movers that enter your home and handle your most prized possessions in order to deliver them safely to your new home. We understand that statistics show that moving is the 3rd most stressful thing a person deals with in their life, after death and divorce. We attempt to remove that stress and provide all of our clients with an amazing experience. I apologize that you were disappointed with your experience and hope we have the opportunity to change your mind and wow and amaze you in the future. If you'd like to discuss this any further or would like to bring anything else to my attention that I may not be aware of, you can reach me directly at Ted.Panebianco@CHHJ.com or at my office 631-416-7876. Thank you for writing us a review. We know this takes time out of your day and we appreciate all feedback. It helps us continue to become a better company everyday.

The young men did an excellent job. There was a lot of heavy stuff that had to be carted up steep basement stairs. They arrived on time and they worked very efficiently. They were very courteous and professional.I would recommend them highly for any carting needs.

These young people were extremely professional. I received a telephone call prior to them coming out and they advised as to the exact time. The arrived promptly and performed the cleaning in a timely, honest and complete manner. This is the second time I have used their service and could not be more satisfied with the outcome. Use with confidence.

The service was OK, if a bit sloppy, but we were not informed in advance about all the items that they would not remove (old paint cans, solvents, etc. As much of our unwanted stuff included these items (and I had specified these as among items I wished to have hauled) the job was not as complete as I would have liked. In addition, the estimate which was approximate until the haulers arrived and surveyed the job, was finalized by these men when they looked at the job but raised toward the end of the job. The job they did do was OK but their professionalism in turms of honesty was not.

Satisfied, except for the fact that they don't provide a cost estimate in advance; you have to wait until they show up to find out what it will cost you to cart the stuff away. Their prices seemed to be equivalent to what other like services are charging (by volume).

Amazingly easy. Called the co arranged a pickup time for the next day. Movers Mike and Sean arrived early and called to say they were on the way. The piece was large, heavy and delicate. They wrapped with pads, Plastic wrapped it, and carried it down large flight of stairs. Strapped it in so wouldn't move in truck. Unloaded it at destination and unwrapped it. Arrived in same shape it started in. Very happy with co especially, happy with professionalism, promptness and courtesy of the movers, Mike and Sean. They were great to deal with. Would definitely use co again, especially if Mike and Sean do the moving.

The two workers Jonathan and Brian arrived well within the time period which was scheduled. They were courteous and very efficient. There were many heavy items to be removed which they handled very easily.They also did some sweeping up when they were finished loading the truck. I would definitely hire them again for future removals.

On 2 separate dates 6/30/13 and 7/6/13, 2 crews of 3 arrived @ our home. On 6/30/13,Eric, Mike , and Joe arrived on time to begin removal of junk from our garage. These 3 young men removed 3/4 of the materials in my garage in less than 1 hour and loaded it into the truck. It would have been completed in 1 day but there was no more room on the truck. They were very careful and respectful in doing their job.(very careful in backing in their truck and not damaging the tree by the driveway). Once finished,Eric scheduled another appointment to finish the garage and the basement. They asked questions if they were not sure to throw out certain items. On 7/6/13,, a 2nd crew of Zach, Mike and Jake, arrived to complete the cleanup. As with the 1st crew they were on time, and reviewed with what was needed to be completed. As with the 1st crew they were careful and respectful and asked questions. They finished in just under 2 hours Both crews worked as a solid team and made both days a "STRESS FREE EXPERIENCE" which is the motto of the company. It sure be noted that both days were part of the "HEAT WAVE" with high temperatures in the 90"s with high humidity. These men would be commended for their hard work and due diligence working under difficult conditions. I would recommend College Hunks to anyone. The service they provide is 'PRICELESS!!

They came in, gave me an estimate and were very efficient at getting everything loaded into the truck. I am very pleased at how easy the whole process was, and will definitely be using them again in the future!

They were unbelievable! They called about a half hour before they came. Then they quickly and efficiently moved our furniture to several other rooms in the house. They then returned the following week and put the furniture back. They moved some very heavy pieces and were very careful and concerned about damaging the floor or walls. They were polite and extremely hard-working. They really took the stress out of a stressful situation. Will recommend them highly to everyone.
Description of Work: We needed heavy furniture moved from one part of our house to another so we could have our wood floors re-finished. Then we needed them to come back and put all of the furniture carefully back on the new floors. We had called several moving companies and the prices were triple the amount. We were very stressed about how to move furniture out of our living room and dining room for a reasonable amount. And also how to do it without incurring any damage to the furniture or the floors.

I would recommend them; they showed up the day after I called with a truck, provided an estimate and performed the job right then. The only two glitches were that a fair amount of dirt (from the attic cleanup) was left on the stairs, and they backed the truck into our gate, causing some minor damage. They corrected both problems promptly: they cleaned up the stairs properly as soon as I asked, and did their best to bend the gate back into alignment, but didn't have the correct tools. When they couldn't fix it completely, they returned after about a week to finish fixing it, including touching up the paint. They charge by the amount of stuff (1/8 of a truckload up to a full truckload) as opposed to an hourly rate.
