Bob’s Moving services were exactly what I was looking for! I purchased an Armoire on Marketplace and needed up brought up a flight of stairs. It was extremely heavy! Found Bob on Craigslist & saw the “ A” rating from Angies list. Called him & HE PICKED UP THE PHONE! Very rare today. He was pleasant & available & a reasonable rate. He came with a helper- they definitely knew exactly what they were doing- got it upstairs, rearranged some furniture for me. They were true professionals. In & out in 20 minutes- even moved an old tv to the curb. Highly recommend & would definitely use him again.

Bob's Movers were amazing; I would highly recommend his services. Every time I called he would answer and was always pleasant and cooperative. They showed up on time and were so efficient and professional, besides the fact they were very nice. They were so helpful and managed to get a lot of stuff in the storage unit in an organized and orderly fashion.This is the best moving service I have ever used! Trust me you will be very happy and their prices were reasonable.

Bob's Moving Service saved me. I had another company drop me a day before I was supposed to pick up a 7 piece dining room set I found on Craiglist. I tried different companies for quotes and either I did not receive a call back or the prices were too high. Bob was great to work with and I had only been going with the first company because they had responded first. Same quote. But super, efficient service. Very professional and a definite company I will use for any other future moving needs.

I thought it went well until I started to unpack. I think they would be great for small moves or delivery of furniture... They are muscle, not finess. Things I am unhappy with... footprints on top of my wardrobe boxes. all of my wardrobe boxes were crushed. when called and talked to about it - they said that is what happens when you pack a truck. Um, doubtful! Why would anyone stand on a WARDROBE box that truly would have no support for it as it is just to protect hanging clothes. Lids to my brand new plastic bins were smashed and also had footprints on them. Several screws for my childrens BUNK beds are missing for the rails. The RAILS - A SAFETY FEATURE! When asked they said for us to go get new ones and they had no idea where they were. These are not acceptable things to me in a moving company. You shouldn't advertise you can move furniture if you are not going to make sure all the pieces arrive. one of our dressers were damaged. Even more fun - boxes CLEARLY labeled as fragile (I numbered boxes and the only ones labeled with words were labeled fragile) ended up on the BOTTOM of piled boxes. when questioned they said they didnt see it labeled as fragile or it wasnt clearly labeled. many of my glasses were smashed. Did my things get moved? yes. Instead of one day however it became two. They claimed it was because we had so much. They did work the whole time and quickly. I just can't say I was thrilled. I have used other moving companies before and were much happier. It was as if I had friends move my things but had to pay a lot of money

Response from Bob's Moving Services
I hope I can address your issues here seeing I guess I didn't address them very well when I spoke to your husband after the move and you felt works best for you. I was present on this move and spoke to your husband throughout when I did see issues that would arise. Regarding moving over two days: Prior to your move when we discussed and booked it I talked about the possibility of it taking two days since you were moving a very full apartment and from a large storage unit as well . I stated about halfway into the first day that we would need to come back to finish and you had no problem with that then. I feel bad and expressed regret to you and your husband that we couldn't complete the apartment all in the first day but we had filled the entire 26' box truck and the cargo van we had brought for overflow. We offered to go back and finish up the apartment and, as discussed prior to the move, move the storage unit two days later. The only reason we didn't do that is your apartment complex wouldn't allow us to continue the move after 5pm. You move was in no means a small move so taking the time we took I feel was well in line with norms. We filled two 26' ft box trucks and two cargo vans over the two days. Its the equivalent of a 48' tractor trailer. Also at the pick up the walk distance from the apartment door to the truck was about 100 to 120' and the distance at the storage unit was about the same. We worked for 14 and 1/2 hours without taking any breaks except for the [Member Information Removed] between pickup and drop off. I track my steps on my iphone and on the first day of your move I did 9.5 miles 29 flights of stairs and 7.1 miles the second day of the move. With regard to your wardrobe boxes: Seeing that I spoke to your husband on the phone and not you perhaps something might have been lost in translation. What I had said was that, yes, it is possible that wardrobe boxes can be crushed on moves especially when there is so much that need to be packed in the truck. We had to put weight on top of those boxes simply because you had so many boxes. There was well over 200 and well as several dozen vacuum sealed clothing backs that weight 50-75 lbs each. I had to put them somewhere and I couldn't put them on top of fragile boxes. I moved most of the wardrobes into the house and although I do remember seeing 2-3 with crushed tops (I didn't see footprints on any but I was't looking for that either) I wasn't too concerned since even with crushed edges you won't have damage to hanging clothes. With regard to fragile boxes and broken glass: Without myself and my team packing all the boxes for a move I find it hard to take all the responsibility for any breakage. We do try to treat all boxes as if there are fragile but when loading at the apartment my guys were constantly calling out "loose glass" as they put boxes on the truck. They do this to let the loader (me in this case) that the box they just put on has upwrapped glass inside. you can hear the glass clinking together as you carry it. There were several boxes of glass with no packing material whatsoever. We try our best to treat all boxes like they are fragile but some packing need to be done to protect them properly. With regard to putting fragile boxes under boxes it happens on occasion and if we did it I'm sorry its never our intent to have anything break. In your case we unloaded 100 plus boxes to your basement as quickly as we could as safely as we could. Regarding broken bins and possibly other items: We weren't the only moving company to handle this load. Someone loaded that storage unit and it wasn't us. This was another time I tried to be proactive in addresses issues as I saw them. When we opened that storage unit I turned to your husband and said "You are going to have breakage in there" The unit was massively overpacked. There were boxes and the heavy clothing bags packed to the ceiling. and although you had some racks around the outside the center was still pack all the way up and at the base was the bins. They were smashed even before we loaded them on the truck. As for whatever else might have been broken in there I have no idea. With regard to any broken furniture: you didn't bring anything to my attention the day of the move or on the phone call after. That day I did point out a large cabinet that was in your dinning room. that appeared to pop a dowel or bolt on the base. I discussed the piece with your husband prior to us loading it. I told him I had concerns due to its weight and how loose the press board was on how well it made the trip. I showed him on delivery how it had popped the bolt and even discussed with him the best bracket options that could secure it. I also remember cutting my hand up pretty good reaching underneath to see if I could fix it right then. Other than that I definitely didn't see any other furniture issues. With regard to the screws for the bunk bed....I lost them. I do recall speaking with your husband about that. I told him that we had them wrapped on to the rails and that it must of got caught on something and went loose into the truck. Odds are the are on top of some box in your basement as we speak. I also showed him what hardware he would need to replace them and suggested stores he could pick them up. I honestly don't what else I could have done in that situation to make it better. I'm open to suggestions. With regard you your rating of us: F for price I guess its subjective. We moved the equivalent of a tractor trailer cu ft of items in 14 1/2 hours without breaks and charged $1800. I think its very fairly priced but if you don't its subjective. F Quality Again I guess its somewhat subjective. I felt like we hustled our a**** off and did a great job. I'm sorry about losing the screws and I had hoped that large cabinet was going to make it but I addresses my concerns about that piece prior to even putting it on the truck. Broken glasses....I don't know, if you expect that you don't need to wrap glass in paper or other packing material and it breaks in transit then you are going to think the quality of the move is not there. A Responsiveness Actually I might go lower on that since it took me so long to write this. I used to get emails from Angie's List but they stopped sending for some reason. I do try to answer calls and get back on emails as fast as possible. A Puncuality I wish we could have started your job earlier in the day but it wouldn't have made a difference to finishing in one day. I just need to get my kids on the bus in the morning. D Professionalism This is the only one that bothers me. I did everything to address the issues as the came up during the move. Issues always come up during a move. I tell my guys all the time "If it were easy they would do it themselves" I thought I address everything I could the day of the move and on the call I received from your husband. And I try to keep the mood light with the team. We have fun and joke while we are working and I often have to tell customers "Don't mistake how good we are for an easy job." We work incredibly hard out there to take care of your things to the best of out ability. If there is anything else I can do to address your concerns you can absolutely call me yourself as well. Bob

Great. Bob confirmed the night before and showed up exactly when he said he would. All furniture was handled with care and the truck was loaded like a jigsaw puzzle being put together. No time was wasted which I like when paying by the hour. We used him again to move the storage unit furniture and boxes into a new apartment.

Excellent. The best moving experience I have had. They were honest and did everything as promised. I 100% recommend Bob's Moving.
Description of Work: I hired Bob for a move from Riverhead to Manorville. He and his assistant arrived on time and completed the move in less time then he had anticipated. This saved me money. They were careful, courteous, and hard working. All items were loaded using all of the proper tie downs, blankets, padding, ect. Upon arrival, everything was unloaded and place to make my job of unpacking easy. Nothing was broken, scratched, or nicked. They proved themselves to be the best at what they do.

Bob and walter did an excellent job. They came in and pad wrapped everything and helped me pack up the smaller items. They were very professional and I could tell they have handled these kind of items before so I felt very same trusting them with all of my mothers belongings, they took special care of the China cabinet that is 300 years old! Very great crew they worked together very well and I couldn't be more happier with the move. I've recommend bob to all of my friends. A+++

Very Well. Worked diligently and didn't damage a thing. Estimate was way off but that was somewhat due to more volume than expected and time needed. Price for 6 hours / 2 movers ran 750.00 which was very reasonable

It went great! We communicated two weeks before move via e-mail. He showed up when he said he would. Bob gave me the price via e-mail and stuck with it. They were on time. Bob came with a U-Haul truck big enough for the job. He had all the wrapping materials needed to protect furniture. We needed two large bedrooms moved (I took apart the beds a day before). We needed very heavy entertainment center moved. We also have high quality dining room cabinets (3) to move. They wrapped all in film and then blanketed items in the truck. He directed his assistant and they worked very well together. In addition to the move we asked them to take items not being moved to the garage (very heavy items) so they would be ready for trash. we paid by the hour and they did not delay. I think what we paid for 4 hours work was very fair. Very happy with the move and this company. Don N

My mother moved to another co-op unit in the same complex. She has an upstairs unit and moved to a lower on the other side of the complex. She has a very heavy mica bedroom set, a digital baby grand piano and a safe. Bob had to take apart and put back together the armoire, Bed and the piano. Bob moved everything flawlessly. He wrapped most pieces in plastic and transported them with blankets to protect the furniture. He made several trips with the van he uses. Bob charges a very reasonable hourly rate especially since there is Bob and a helper. There were no breaks they just kept moving. When you pay by the hour you think they would take their time, they didn't they just kept hustling. They were very professional, quick and extremely reasonable, we were very happy with the move. Bob is a really nice guy and I totally recommend them!!! Thank You Bob!!

Contacted bob through angies list on monday night to pickup a heavy dresser and have it moved from 2nd floor of centerport house to 2nd floor of smithtown house. Bob responded the same night that he could do it wednesday. I had bought dresser off of craigslist. Bob met me at the pickup location with his helper on time. There was a baby gate at the top of the stairs at the Craigslist sellers house that the seller refused to move. Bob and his helper hoisted the dresser above their heads to get the dresser over the gate. They wrapped the dresser in a moving blanket and deliver it under an hour. I would definitely hire him again.

Bob and his crew arrived on time and got right to work. They were courteous, careful and knowledgeable. They moved furniture and a number of boxes which we had packed in advance of their arrival. Once we arrived at the new place, they unloaded and set up exactly where we wanted everything to go. They were particularly careful navigating some pretty narrow spaces and sharp turns going up to the second floor and down to the basement, but when all was said and done, everything was in place, there was no damage, and they were in and out in a very short period of time. The bonus?? The guys were pleasant, even funny, and very respectful of our possessions and of us!
Description of Work: Bob and his crew moved us from a second floor apartment to a townhouse. We had a relatively small amount of furniture, but it was big and bulky. The trip from point A to point B was about 10 miles.

Bob was amazing. We had so many large tools, an antique cast iron kitchen stove, pinball machine. It seemed like everything was oversized and heavy. The two men breezed through the move, they did way more than I had expected, and it took way less time than I had thought it would. I was so pleased!

Perfect. Bob exceeded my expectations! As one who has been in the process of moving and downsizing I have had to deal with many different services. This was the last two items to move. Bob responded to my inquiry quickly and was able to schedule the move for the next day. Of course it rained (always when I move!) they plastic wrapped the mattress moved the items from my home to May apartment which is up one flight of stairs. I was going to reschedule with him to move a love seat stored in a so To rage unit to the apartment and he said let's do it now be more cost effective. After delivering the bed set he met me at my storage facility, moved boxes out to get to the love seat then put things back in neatly and took the love seat and delivered to the apartment. Bob has restored my faith that there are nice, HONEST professional businesses on Long Island. Trust me you wil not be disappointed if you use bob's moving services!

Bob showed up with Alex and Manuel and they got right onto the job. The day before a 30 yd dumpster was dropped off in my drive way. I along with Bob's moving team made sure everything that was being thrown out was indeed garbage/junk and they organized it . I had some pretty heavy items and the garage was a nightmare. Not once did they complain or make me feel uncomfortable. They diligently worked with a good sense of humor. Within 3 hours my garage was unrecognizable. I actually had a garage!!
