Description of Work: I am really pleased to say that my experience with Alexander Moving company was excellent. They helped us moving from our 3 bdrm apartment where we stayed for 7 yrs at Willoughby to our new home at Reminderville, Ohio. They also picked up certain items from an office space at Beachwood. The 2 crew members were extremely professional and polite. Joan was also excellent. The only thing that we could not avail was a discount for Angie's list members, as I realized that after I paid them.

Response from Alexander Moving Co
Although I always am thankful of a good review, your remarks confused me. I cant seem to find you or your address listed in our database. So I am not so sure they were in regards to a move. Possibly another company to which you are referring. Thanks anyway!

Description of Work: They took my daughter belongings from my house to her new apartment in Cleveland Heights. Everything was handled carefully. The young men were congenial and hard-working. They had to carry her furniture up three flights of stairs. They worked quickly and assembled her bed and other things before I had a chance to get upstairs. I was only charged from my house to her apartment. Most other places charge from their places to the pickup, to the place being moved to, and back to their place again. I don't remember how much it cost, but I felt it was very reasonable. The owner was very nice to talk to on the phone, and the move was made in just a couple days. As I already said the young men were very nice and professional. I know I will be using them in the future.

We would highly recommend this company! We moved on the worst possible day (12/13). It was extremely windy/cold and snowing. Everyone we dealt w/ (Joni, Rob and ? sorry can't remember the other guys name) was very professional and friendly. The movers had to move furniture, clothing etc from 2 houses and stop at the furniture store to pick up 2 couches as well. They did an excellent job in taking care of our pieces (didn't see any damage) and did not make a mess of the houses (they put down runners etc). They were willing to put things in any of the rooms that we wanted. We were very pleased with how smoothly everything went.

The move went really well. My experience started when Richard, the owner of Alexander Moving, came over to give me an estimate on the move. He was very knowledgeable and knew exactly what had to be done. His estimate included packing of all of my household belongings, loading them onto the truck and driving them the 755 miles to my new home. Everything went as planned ( they even arrived the day before our expected delivery date). Communications were excellent throughout the moving process. I will certainly use them again and I will refer them to all my friends and family.
Description of Work: I moved from Chardon, Ohio to Mount Pleasant, South Carolina.

They were excellent. They were the best movers I have ever seen. They were professional and friendly. They wrapped everything. Every piece of furniture was wrapped in a blanket before being loaded on to the truck. This is a family owned operation.
Description of Work: They moved us from Ohio to North Carolina. They charge by the pound. They gave us an estimate on the weight and then loaded the furniture on moving day and weighed the truck. They called to let me know how much it weighed, what the cost would be, and got the go ahead to complete the project.

We were impressed with the high-quality of service we received from this local company over the service offered by nationwide interstate movers. The moving checklist on the Alexander Moving Company website was very helpful and allowed them to give us a flat rate price quote over the phone. One concern with this move was that a large semi truck would not fit in the condominium complex. Alexander Moving Company was willing to use a smaller truck and did not charge us an additional shuttle fee to do so. They completed the interstate move within three days (record time compared to the 7-10 day window quoted by one nationwide interstate mover we contacted for an estimate). The movers were friendly, efficient, and professional. They helped to seal some remaining boxes that my daughter was still packing on the day of the move and generally found ways to productively work around the items that were being packed. They completed both the move out and move in efficiently and loaded the items securely in the truck. The overall price of the move was reasonable.
Description of Work: Move my daughter’s furniture and packed belongings out of my two bedroom condo and garage in Ohio and into a one bedroom apartment more than 500 miles away.

I have had horrible experiences with two other moving companies. This company gave me an estimate and told me if I needed extra boxes. Truly my house was a mess and, as I unpacked, I was pleased to see that they packed in such an organized way. I had no problem unpacking and putting items in order. They did not stop for conversation. One very important piece of information is that, whenever I called, Joan Alexander talked with me as if I was the only one who needed her attention. She was very professional and never had me feeling like I was bothering her. This company's service is excellent and I would recommend them to anyone and everyone. I am so pleased to have found a moving company such as Alexander Moving Company.
Description of Work: This company packed my disorganized house in an orderly way. They loaded everything on the truck carefully. When we reached my new home every box was put in the proper rooms. They were professional and courteous. They worked constantly without breaks, especially no cigarette breaks.

The guys were really good! They were all young, strong guys and were very careful with our stuff. There was only one item that was minorly damaged. They did very good work and we are very happy with them. None of the trucks they have are that big, so even moving a tiny house took two loads, and it took all day, and you pay an hourly rate.

THANKS SO MUCH FOR THE GREAT RATING. ALTHOUGH YOU CHOSE NOT TO CALL IN THE MINOR DAMAGE YOU MENTIONED IN YOUR REPORT, POSSIBLY SO SMALL THAT YOU FELT IT NOT NECESSARY, WE ARE GLAD YOU WERE HAPPY WITH OUR WORK. TO THE OTHERS READING THIS REPORT, OUR TRUCKS ARE 27' INTERNATIONAL STRAIGHT TRUCKS, 2006 AND NEWER, A SIZE WHICH IS STANDARD FOR THE MOVING INDUSTRY, UNLESS YOU HAVE HIRED A SEMI. SO, ONCE AGAIN - THANKS FOR THE GREAT REVIEW. WE APPRECIATE IT.

They did a great job overall. They moved at a steady pace and were very careful with my items. They were nice guys and were very professional the entire time.
Description of Work: They moved me from one Mentor location to another Mentor location, seven minutes away. They had several heavy items to move including a 250 lb TV and a heavy sofa along with many boxes. I was charged a flat rate for the first three hours and then in 15 minute blocks after that. The entire move took 3.5 hours. The clock started to run on the move when they left their Mentor location on Hart St. It helped that I had everything packed and stacked by the door to be loaded.

THEY WERE VERY HELPFUL. WE ARE AN OLDER COUPLE AND THEY TOOK CARE OF THE PACKING AND UNPACKING WHICH WAS APPRECIATED. WE ASKED THEM TO TAKE EXTRA CARE OF SOME CERTAIN ITEMS WHICH THEY DID. SINCE THIS IS A SMALLER COMPANY, SOME OF THEIR EMPLOYEES WERE PART TIME AND THEY WERE NOT ALL IN THE SAME UNIFORM WHICH IS THE REASON FOR THE B FOR PROFESSIONAL. THIS WAS NOT A PROBLEM FOR US BECAUSE IT IS A LOCAL FIRM.
Description of Work: THEY MOVED US ABOUT 10 MILES FROM OUR HOME TO A CONDO.

It went very smoothly. They were the only one of several companies I contacted who did not have a minimum charge (others were $700-$1000). Both the office staff and the movers were very easy to work with, especially since I made arrangements late and had to change the pick up location. The time estimates were perfect on both ends, and in fact when they were a bit ahead of schedule they called to let me know. The dresser was in fine shape and they attached the mirror before they left. I would definitely use them again and recommend them.
Description of Work: They moved a dresser from North Carolina to Cleveland and took the existing dresser downstairs and outside.

THANKS SO MUCH FOR SUCH A GOOD GRADE! AS SHOWN ON THE REPORT CARD, PRICE PER HOUR SEEMED TO BE GRADED LOWER WITH A "B". HOWEVER, BETWEEN FUEL COSTS AND OTHER RELATED FACTORS, IT IS NOT COST EFFICIENT TO PRICE OURSELVES LOWER. WE FEEL OUR PRICES HAVE ALWAYS BEEN AVERAGE IN THE INDUSTRY AND OUR MOVERS ABOVE AVERAGE THAN MOST. THAT IS THE COST SAVING FACTOR HERE! THANKS AGAIN FOR THE GOOD GRADE!
