My move went extremely smoothly. The team they sent were courteous and professional. They did exactly what they said they would, exactly when they said they would do it. The time that the move took was well under the time given in my estimate. I would use them again in a minute.

The person answering the phone was professional and detailed oriented, she helped me determine the number of men and quoted a price. They called the weekday before the appt date to confirm address and time. The appt was at 8 am, they arrived at 8:15, the clock starts when they leave the office. Three strapping young men arrived. They were polite and wasted no time. They got an elliptical up the stairs (no small feat). They demonstrated teamwork in tandem lifts and were conscious about the walls, door jambs and floor. The third man carried boxes and other items. The job was done under 2hrs, (2hr min charge).

Got two young men sent; they were so polite and friendly. They worked so quickly too, yet they were very careful with my stuff and didnt scuff the walls, no dings, everything was perfect. I thought the price was fair and I'm so glad I went with them as opposed to rounding up friends and using a U-Haul which is such a pain.

I called for a quote, described what I had. They thought 2 guys would be enough, I pushed for 3 or 4 due to the fact that I lived on the third floor. (Very glad I did- since they would switch off between guys for the larger items and for moving the boxes). They were a half hour late after the and quot;one hour window of arrival.and quot; Their truck was a new truck, so their ramp didn't fit (which made me nervous, if they fell off of it- I didn't know who would be responsible for injuries. But nothing happened with that, thankfully.) One guy was very vocal, whether he was singing, joking, talking, or complaining- but he kept moving. Another guy was very professional, efficient and kept things moving. The third guy was quiet but was a hard worker. They were all hard workers. Very efficient in loading the truck up, used blankets to protect the more delicate pieces, and they even asked permission to take breaks. It took about 2.5 hours to pack the truck, they took the long way to get to my place (I had directions ready for them, which they did not use). Once they arrived at the new place - things moved much quicker since we didn't have the 3 flights of stairs to deal with. They were overall very friendly, hard working, and mostly efficient.
Description of Work: Moved from a third floor/attic apartment in the city to a townhouse in the suburbs. I had approximately 30 pieces of furniture and 50 boxes.

They were very fast in making the quote for us. However, I thought that the quote was not as thorough as it could have been and I thought there were some things that should have been covered. I ended up going with another company.

they were young and tireless, moved quickly and efficiently-a lot of banging , scraping and bumping...we were to have been sent only 2 men and a truck and instead received 3-not in the agreement-hence the high price for a 3 hour move. When questioned by phone, the reply was that if they had sent the original 2 men-it would have taken longer and cost more anyway...also, I was never told about Wardrobe boxes-this would have saved a lot of wear and tear on my dad and I.

We booked Sheridan early May 2013. We had to move some appliances and heavy furniture as well as some boxes. Ricky and another guy showed up on time and were SUPER friendly guys- Ricky was a really hard worker but the guy with him whined the entire time! and quot;My back hurts. This is SO heavy. I am really thirsty. I need a breakand quot;. It took them 6-7 hours when it should have taken them 4 or so, and we were charged for the entire time they were here, even though the one guy took 4-5 breaks, each lasting about 15 minutes. They didn't damage anything, and were super respectful and careful with our stuff. Their truck was clean and spacious. I would have used them again, and just requested they didn't send the same whiny guy, but when I requested a quote online (we just bought our final home and are moving at the end of the month) I never heard back. A week later, I called to see if they got my quote request and the owner answered. He put me on hold, was short, kind of rude and didn't give me a quote. I asked if he could send someone other than that guy (Ricky was great, and I let him know that). He said and quot;I'll look into itand quot; and didn't seem concerned. You'd think they'd be more interested in repeat business, and would be a bit nicer, considering this will be an all day big job and they'd make well over $1,000. Anyway, I ended up canceling this second job with them and booking with someone else instead.

The movers were professional, friendly, and efficient. With expertise they very carefully moved my appliances down the narrow back stairway of my 100 year-old-house. I will be hiring Sheridan Brothers Moving again a year from now when I move into the main house.

When we moved we had left half of our belongings in our old house in order to and quot;stageand quot; it so that it might sell better. Once it did sell, we had to of course hire movers to relocate all of those things to our new house. It took 2 movers about 5 hours to move everything, which filled their truck completely. Mostly it was furniture and some home decor items, so a lot of large and heavy things. These guys did a good job and did it quickly.

I have moved several times in my life and this was by far the smoothest. Joe and his two crew members did a fantastic job. They are experienced and extremely professional. They were right on time and they went so quickly they made me tired just watching them. I highly recommend them and would not hesitate to use them again in the future.

The guys picked up furniture at our friends house and then came to our house to pick up our furniture. They then brought it to the new house. They were extremely professional. They asked where we wanted furniture placed before putting it down. They weren't able to get a couch in the basement due to the fridge and waterline, but said that if we got the water turned off and moved the fridge, we could give them a call and they would come back out and move the couch for us.

Overall from start to finish I received a five star service. It doesn't get any better than that.
Description of Work: Sheridan Bros movers arrived at the time scheduled, and immediately viewed the items to be moved and asked if there were any special instructions to which I answered yes. We then went over items that needed special care, and some furniture to be placed on the truck last. Within 41 minutes everthing was on the truck with attention given to fragile items such as glass tops for TV stands, and pictures etc. Once we arrived at my new residence, again special attention was given to fragil items and placed inside my home with utmost care. There was no damage to any furniture or walls as they were extremely careful in placing everything. Every box or piece of furniture moved they asked where I wanted it placed. I received exceptional, professional, and courteous service from Sheridan Bros, and wouldn't hesitate to use their services again.

The more experienced pair packed us up. But they didn't drive the truck to our new home 4-hours away so a different crew, much less experienced, unpacked us. Our bedroom and office furniture was a bit complicated to take apart and they had no idea how to put it together, so that fell back on me. 95% of the items they moved were moved very safely with no damage. A couple of items had damage but neither of the younger pair that moved us in bothered noting it to the company - I guess they felt that was my responsiblity. Furthermore, I was not given a survey from the company to rate their service - as this would have given me the avenue to note the damage. Regardless of the few negative issues above, I'd use this company again - especially if I could get the more experienced pair. They met ever need of my schedule both packing and unpacking. Both crews had good attitudes - something I've missed in other moves in my life. Overall - a very good company with a some room for improvement.

After meeting with their salesman and booked our move, we decided to purchase extra insurance to cover some higher end furniture we have. I was assured we would have that dollar coverage should there be any issues or damages. I have no complaints about the three men who actually moved our furniture, they did it in a timely fashion and were very professional. They arrived on time, and worked well together. We had three pieces of furniture damaged in the move, Two of them (minimally) which we noticed while the movers were still here, so one of them filled out some paperwork and took photos. He told me someone would contact me within 48 hours to set up the repairs. I was pleased to think that was how easy it was going to be. After they had left I was making our bed and realized they had broken our mattress, by folding in incorrectly to get it up our staircase. I called and spoke with Jennifer the next morning to tell her what I found. Her response was and quot;what do you want us to do about it?'. To make a long story short, it took until I filed a complaint with the BBB to have the two damaged pieces fixed, then took well over three months to get reimbursed for my broken mattress. The owner of Sheridan Brothers never same across as very professional, I got the run around from him. At one point he suggested I reread the section in the moving guide about what movers are liable for. I did, and learned if you purchase additional insurance from a mover, they are required to provide you a copy of the policy or they are liable in full for all damages to your property. I called him and told him this, we settled on a dollar value and I was reimbursed.

After reading a lot of reviews about moving companies, I decided to go with these guys. I also decided to schedule the move for 8:30am, so as to avoid any delays from an earlier move. I highly recommend doing that. They arrived on time, and headed into the house to assess the situation as a whole. They came up with a game plan very quickly and began grabbing stuff. This was smack dab in the middle of Hurricane Sandy, so we had a lot of rainy weather before, during, and after the move. Thankfully it was fairly light rain during the move itself, but the outside was very muddy. They did a great job lining both our apartment and more importantly our new home with tons of pads and cloth, to keep it clean. The whole time they were very friendly and professional. We had lunch together after a majority of the work was done, and they were extremely grateful for the food, to the point of thanking us constantly. Overall a fantastic experience. The price was very fair, even less than I thought it was going to be. Definitely going to recommend them to anyone in the future.

We had to change the move dates a couple times due to the house closing running in to days and time changes (as those things can come up).Sheridan brothers made sure they were available and at times seemed to move mountains to make sure they were available making our complicated move seem effortless from their prospective any ways. They showed up when they said they would worked in a timely fashion and with the utmost of professionalism. The guys worked hard as this was a complicated move and went above and beyond to make it happen and finish the job the right way! They worked long and hard tirelessly through the better part of three days. We have been 100% satisfied.
Description of Work: Complete whole house move for family of 5. There were a total of 4 to 6 people who helped to make this very stressful move possible and they did it with the utmost professionalis! I think the only thing we could have done is have a larger truck to make for less trips from one location to the next. The guys worked long and hard an I think if we had 6 guys and a larger truck it might have gone more quickly and not been as h the guys. They were troopers and we would call on this company and will definitely refer them to everyone we know because it was a difficult and complicated move that they carried off with a lot of effort and hard work!
