Bad really bad, got a quote for 900-1275 for 3 movers between 4-6 hours it ended costing over $2000 and took 5 guys almost 9 hours to complete the whole time it was 2 movers and 3 spotters. Didn’t use box dollies carried one thing at a time as slow as dirt. One guy even apologized because he was “super hungover”. They didn’t even fill half a 28 ft truck I have a 900sf 2 bedroom apartment, other people quoted me under 5 hours of work. I did a walkthrough with the guys when they got there and they said it would take them 5 hours tops with 3 guys. Once they found out I was going to work and I left my pregnant wife there to watch them, they brought 2 extra guys and took nearly 10 hours! Doubling the quote I received and used pressure tactics to get my wife to pay now! Avoid these guys go with a local company and make sure you discuss top out prices. The photo is how they moved my stuff back in my house!

I called on Thursday to inquire about moving services. They were able to get me in on Saturday morning. I was given a two-hour window at that time. I received a call the next day to narrow down the time. The morning of, I received a call 30 minutes prior to arrival. This made it very easy to plan my day. The guys arrived exactly on time, gave us an estimate right in line with what I was quoted over the phone, and got to work immediately. They were able to get the job done quickly. They were polite and professional. I would highly recommend and will use them again.

You cannot ask for a more professional and hard working crew than you'll get from CHHJ. These guys do not slow down, and they listen carefully as you explain what needs to go and what needs to stay. On top of that, this is a company with a social conscience that will take re-usable items where they're needed, and not just take them to the landfill. They are reliable, honest, very hard working and get the job done and done right.
Description of Work: I am in the process of cleaning out a basement (as part of an estate) that was both a storage area for a large number of collectible items, including more than 3,000 books; and doubled as a home office for a single-owner businessman. There was a lot of stuff that needed to be hauled away because it was either trash, or could be donated. The job was very large in scope, because a part of that task was packing up all those books (mostly hardbacks) into boxes and taking them to the garage upstairs. In all, nearly 40 boxes of books were packed and hauled, and almost two full truckloads of trash was taken away during two separate visits. In addition, Derek, the director of field operations, came back a couple times by himself just to help pack up all those books and get them to the garage, so possible buyers could easily examine them.

We inquired online and got a call back within 24hours. We set a date for an appointment. The guys showed up on time, called us first to give us a time frame when they were on their way. They were courteous, dressed professionally in uniforms and went right to work. They were efficient and got the job done in an hour. We also received an angies list discount of 10% We will use them again in the future
Description of Work: We had a 110 gallon water heater we needed hauled out of our basement. It was an older model that AEP put out years ago, with a concrete lining. The people who put in our water heater just could not remove it due to the weight. We also had misc junk to dispose of as well.

Perfect! Scheduled to arrival < 1 day. Showed up on-time, very polite, gave estimate, hauled junk right then, worked quickly. You pay a bit of a premium, but much very worth it for the convenience. I'll definitely use them again when we do a remodeling project this summer.

GREAT! Scheduled on-line. Only had to go 4 or 5 business days out to get an appt, and then *I* picked the appt window. Received a confirmation email shortly after, and a call from their office on Tuesday before the Wednesday appt. They called 30 minutes before their arrival, as promised. Professional and friendly, in and out in about 15 minutes. Absolutely would NOT hesitate to hire them again.
Description of Work: Take away a big screen (back then) projection tv (i.e. a BIG box on wheels, NOT a flat screen 2"-3" deep). Up basement steps and out through the garage.

They did a great job. I had expected it to be difficult to remove the hot tub from our raised deck in a gated yard. However, the crew knew exactly what to do. They came prepared with tools. They worked very efficiently and cleaned everything up afterwards. They were very polite.

Great! They called the night before to give us the approximate time within the two hour window and the estimated price. They then called about 15-20 minutes before they arrived. Very friendly and easy to work with. They took the TV which weighed about 150 pounds out with no problem.

Excellent! Everything was just as advertised. I scheduled an appointment on the website and received both e-mail and telephone confirmations. They arrived on time (1 hour into 2-hour window) and were done in 1 hour. Workers were polite and professional. As to cost, it would have cost about $300 to rent a dumpster and have it placed in my driveway. CHHJ charged only $400, and they did all the work in much less time. When they left, everything was gone and the area had been sweep clean. Great bargain as far as I'm concerned. I would certainly use their services again.

The estimate and service were provided in less than 24 hours of each other; Alex was very accommodating and gave us a fantastic rate on the service. Once the job was close to completion, Alex called me out to check the work they completed; not only was the dirt removed, but the ground was leveled, too. College Hunks was extremely professional. I would definitely recommend them!
Description of Work: When we installed our own paver patio, we dumped our dirt behind our backyard fence. Once we got a complaint by the city, we called College Hunks for an estimate to remove the dirt.

One of the two guys that showed up tracked mud on an oriental rug, stairs and loft carpet. When the owner/manager showed up he said he would take care of it and had the take off their shoes.(not a great decision from a personal safety point of view). They spend over 30 minutes of the two hours I contracted for trying to get a medium sized refrigerator downstairs. They did not come equipped with the proper tools to remove the refrigerator door. The language used by the owner/manager during this part of the move was not appropriate at all. They left a pad behind so I called them to let them know they could pick it up. The manager said he would be out the next week to pick up the pad and to pick up the oriental rug and get it cleaned. He never showed up.

The gentlemen who were sent were on time, polite, and thorough. They were friendly with my kids (who were rather pesky in their interest in what the "working guys" were doing), careful of my pets (we have an escape artist of a dog), and respectful of our house. They worked quickly and efficiently. I was pleased with the work, the workers, the price, and the end result.
