A Man With a Van & More!, Inc.

Description of Work: Jimmy is the type of professional that any homeowner wishes to deal with in terms of responsiveness, flexibility and total care in a move. Prior to our move, I selected Jimmy based upon his previous credentials on Angie's List and asked that he visit to review our belongings and give an estimate. He came the next day.The move (local) involved many antiques and a professional grade baby grand piano.Given the value of our belongings, my wife additionally asked Jimmy to come by again to re-review what he/I had discussed. He obliged w/o hesitation and satisfied my wife's concerns & questions.We had packed all belongings in boxes we provided except the furniture pieces prior to the move for ease at moving and a lower price. Additionally, we moved our clothing and wall hangings ourselves prior to the move. All furniture and appliances were disassembled & reassembled properly by the crew.Our previous house was 2800 sq ft (3 floors plus basement) in size and I found the quoted (and identical to the final) price to be fair & reasonable.His team was courteous and responsive. I simply directed them to the room in the new house where the furniture & boxes should be placed. They also were kind enough to exchange rooms (including an attic) for a few mis-labeled boxes that needed to be redirected w/o any remark except a smile.The piano was successfully moved and placed to our exact position. I sat on the piano bench while 6 crew members held aloft the piano to slightly adjust its final position.No damage happened in the course of the move to any of our belongings nor to either the prior or new house structures.I've never seen a crew work as hard as they did on a very warm & humid day. They took no breaks except one stop for drinks & snacks (they are entirely a Ritz cracker crowd - who knew?) while traveling between locations.They started at 8am on time and, based upon their own decision, completed the move at 9:30pm. One day vs. two. Great for us.They were amazing.

Description of Work: I have moved many times in my life, and A Man with A Van is the best moving company I have ever used. Jimmy was very prompt with his communications. He stuck by his price quote. His moving crew was very cordial, hardworking, and respectful of our goods and home. One of his crew members just had a tooth extraction and still came to work for my move! I moved the contents of a 2 bedroom apartment into a 4 bedroom colonial single family home. It was a little bit of a different situation as all my goods were in my parents garage, stacked up since I had moved in summer with a different company (who I wasn't fond of). I finally closed on my new house this winter, and needed movers to help me move my goods from that garage into my new place. I hired A Man with a Van because of their stellar reputation on Angie's List. I did make sure to lay Roslin paper all over my new home's hardwood floors as it was snowing the day of the move. Despite that, I didn't see any damage to my floors or walls. I would hire A Man with a Van in a heartbeat if I had to move anything again.

Description of Work: We moved from New Jersey to Florida. Jimmy assisted us in getting rid of most of our furniture to send to those in need ($600.). In addition, on the day of the move, he went to a storage facility in our area to get approximately 50 boxes that we needed to take to Florida in addition to the contents of our home. He provided us with moving supplies ($250.00). In addition, it was necessary for him to store our belongings for two days as we did not close on our new home until two days after the closing on the home we sold ($300.) The move was from central New Jersey to Cape Coral Florida ($6200.). 15. How did it go overall? Tell us the story from start to finish (10,000 character limit): From the very beginning, Jimmy was very communicative. He contacted us and came to our home to give us an estimate within two days of my call. Our move was complicated as we decided not to take most of our furniture to FL and I was unable to donate it through a variety of charities. Jimmy charged us $600. to take the furniture and make sure it got to people in need as it was important to me that it did not wind up in a landfill. I felt these charges were very reasonable as there was quite a bit of furniture and some of the pieces were solid cherry and very heavy. The guys came to my home to get the furniture and were done within an hour. At the time of the estimate Jimmy dropped off the items for packing and provided me with more than enough (I was able to left over supplies to my daughter who is also moving, but Jimmy would have taken them back and credited me for the supplies I did not need.) I felt the fee of $250. was more than reasonable as it also include three large wardrobe boxes. We were prepared to go to our storage unit ourselves to move the 50 boxes we had in storage back to our home for the day of the move. The storage facility was in the town in which we lived and Jimmy stated it would be no problem for him and his guys to go to the unit and pick up the boxes. We were so grateful, especially as we got closer to moving day we realized how much we had to finish and going to storage and moving all those boxes back to the house was a stress we did not need. Jimmy communicated with me through email and text messages throughout our move which was very reassuring for me. All of our belongings arrived in Florida in excellent condition. Jimmy's guys are very hard working and it was a pleasure working with all of them. I would highly recommend Jimmy (A Man with a Van and More) for those wishing to have their moving services customized to meet their needs. Jimmy is reassuring and highly professional. Moving is a stressful experience but Jimmy made the moving of our belongings stress free.

Description of Work: Packed, moved and unpacked my 4,000 sq ft hoe with outdoor furniture and put 1/2 into a storage space of a friend they voluntarily cleaned out and organized ! Jimmy and his team OVER delivered in what i thought was possible for a moving company. After we initially met for the estimate, he was always responsive to my questions, thorough, very detail oriented. He knew what a stress moving is and made me feel I was in god hands. The 3 days of packing and moving/ unpacking couldn't have gone more smoothly. The team members were kind, careful, also very detail oriented (asking the right questions, pointing out where there already existed a crack or paint chip on something etc etc) Worked hard, met schedules, were helpful and easy to work with. I'd hire them again and have recommended them already to friends. A great company to know about! Suzanne Aaronson

Description of Work: Price quote was very high $400 just to move a single futon, table (32x11x12) and mini trampoline 38" diameter across Manhattan to and from elevator buildings. At this price I can get a friend and get a U-Haul. Insanely expensive.
