Excellent! All the movers were professional as well as pleasant and helpful. I was stressed out and they were prepared and so careful with my difficult pieces. They had to move everything through a small alley and try o a second floor. Professionals all the way. Thank you!!!

They were okay. The movers got the job done and did not damage anything in the process. I was able to get them last minute as I had called on a Friday and they were able to come out Saturday.

I developed pneumonia and my children were the persons planning to direct the move. and took time off from their jobs in Massachusetts The mover did not arrive until 4p.m. and when called to find out why a a nameless person in the office said" Well somedays things don't go well!" I have never had an apology They sent 6 men instead of the usual 3 to expedite the move and they were here until 8:30 I had 6 to tip instead of the usual 3! I was presented with a final bill for $1200 or so dollars and refused to pay the entire amount until someone in charge came to my apt and discussed the various problems I had. While moving a large sofa into a room the men, instead of removing thedoor from its hinges forced the sofa through the door and badly gouged the woodwork. Despite calls about this no one has ever come to look at the damage . I had two large plastic hampers brand new, that had their tops broken, an antique chair with its back chipped, a Victorian plant stand with a broken plant holder, a torn garment bag and considerable evidence that storage of boxes was done carelessly.I was very disappointed in the general attitude of the company. No one seemed to take control and try to communicate their concern and to apologize. Apologies and concern for the customer go a long way in soothing bad feelings Meanwhile my bill has been reduced by $200 and I am yet to have bill or letter sent to me. Shame Jones Moving and Storage!!!!!
Description of Work: The move from my home to storage went well and my antiques and other items were stored at their facility for about 6 weeks. Because I was moving into a new apartment and other tenants had scheduled moves I selected the date between the hours of 12 noon and 5 to execute the move. and called Jones to tell them to have the loaded van at the apt by 12 which they said they would do. This agreement was made at least a week before the date

Response from JONES MOVING & STORAGE
We are sorry we were unable to meet this customer's expectations. Apparently there was a misunderstanding regarding the scheduling of the move. Our policy has always been to schedule a window of time for any afternoon work due to the uncertainty of how long morning jobs will take. We cannot afford to pay a crew to sit from 8:00 AM until 12:00 PM for an afternoon delivery. We had this job scheduled for some time between 12:00 and 5:00 PM. Additionally, we did send a repair service "Wonderworks" who completed all repairs requested. We have called repeatedly to address the issue of the door frame and our calls have not been returned.

My movers were great - Manny, Joelle, and Calvin. They worked quickly and were nice guys. All of my items made it safely to my new home. We moved during a snowstorm and the guys were great under crappy conditions. I had first called another mover I had used previously for a quote which was very high. I'm so glad I chose Jones Moving. They were about 1/4 less the cost than the other guys! Would definitely recommended this company!
Description of Work: These guys were great from beginning to end. I spoke with Mike the owner on my initial call and we discussed how many rooms, items, etc. He have me a very straightforward estimate based on the travel time and how much stuff I had to move. I moved from providence to CT.

The 3 movers, Manny, Pauly and Jo-ell were polite, professional and wonderful to work with. At the complex, they were asked to remove the contents of the truck from a location that was difficult for them. Although this made their work more difficult, they never complained. They apologized about the additional time needed, although it was not because of them. This is an organization that does more than advertised and with very good employees. I would recommend everyone to use their services.
Description of Work: We moved from a one story 3 bedroom home to a 2 bedroom loft apartment on the 4th floor of a repurposed mill complex.

They did a great walk through with us. If there was anything whining around that may put in the box, they gave us anti boxer to put everything in. They were very careful with all of our furniture, stuff that was extra sentimental and make sure they wrap even better. They were efficient and work very tough.

They're very prompt and very easy to schedule with, it was a really last minute our request and they were accommodating in every aspect. It was a little last minute to vary our options. I did not like it because they said it would going to be $75 but they got it in and when they were about to write it down and it's per person, and they sent 2 people so I have to give them $150, I'm trying to give them like $80 and I ended up paying that. If I have to recommend them to someone else I'll have to say make sure to confirm the final price and they just need to be more precise. I don't know if that was on purpose or it was just that way. All I wanted to move was just a couch.

I called Jones Moving & Storage first thing on Saturday morning after realizing my husband and I would need help to load the storage container we are using for our move. Jones was able to give us an appointment for Tuesday (3 days later). The young men who came today did an excellent job moving our big, bulky, awkward furniture. They were punctual and super polite and really nice about moving this difficult stuff, in spite of the fact that it was about 95 degrees out! The price was very competitive to the others I saw on-line and the value was amazing. I highly recommend this company (and Devin, Kyle, and Franklin, our movers).
Description of Work: 3 movers for 2 hours, moving furniture we couldn't handle ourselves.

They arrived 9am on the dot which was the scheduled time. All four men were polite and respectful to me, my family, and of my belongings. They were neat, no tracking dirt and they cleaned up any mess that was made.
Description of Work: They moved my items out of my home and packed them into a POD for me. I have not yet unpacked my POD but from what I saw they did an excellent job.

Had a horrible moving experience with another Providence company when we moved from Boston to Providence, so had used very expensive Boston-based moving company when we moved in Providence after that. A friend had recommended Jones, and we took a risk with this move - very glad we did. The movers were courteous and thorough; the estimate for time and costs right on; they provided boxes at their office on the west side, which was helpful. A couple of small dings in the wall from moving a sofa up very narrow stairway, but no harm to the furniture and the dings were easily repaired when we found them.
Description of Work: Used Jones to move us from first floor apartment into two storey home. Very careful and responsible movers, reasonable estimate.

It was a good experience, even though in the end I did not end up using them (reason in following write up) . I called up Jones moving and they were available on the date that I needed them. In discussion regarding what I needed done, however, I brought up the fact that hoisting might be involved (a big couch from the third floor); the representative taking the call summoned the owner, who told me that they did not handle hoisting, but gave me a reference to another company who did hoist. This was a very professional gesture and very much appreciated - he could have simply told me they did not hoist and leave it at that. Even though I did not end up using Jones Moving, their professionalism was much appreciated and I would not have an issue recommending them.

Badly. I reserved the truck MONTHs in advance - I am a planner - and on the day of the move - they sent the wrong size truck with not enough help. The movers were really good but they were also stressed because they knew their truck was not big enough and they knew we were going to have a bad ending w/ too many things left behind. I did not pay the full bill at the end of the day. I tipped the movers and paid less than what the moving company billed me. I never heard back from the company with an apology - nothing. There are many other better movers from whom to choose!
Description of Work: The MOVERS were terrific - the men on the truck. However, the estimator bombed the size of the move - and it was a disaster. We did not get a big enough truck and I had 40 BOXES left in my garage after the truck was filled. I was desperately on the phone with the storage company about staying open late so that we could bring one load, have it unloaded and then bring the truck back to our house to do a second load. My calls ALL DAY to the moving company office were ignored and the entire move was stressful. I would NEVER use this company again.

This move was a disaster on a number of levels but with the exception of the problems listed above, the moving company did well. I would hesitate to recommend them without reservation because of the loss of several boxes. However, I have no idea whose to blame for that. It wasn't cheap but short of doing it yourself it never is.
Description of Work: Here's the problem: I packed a lot of stuff myself, in professional boxes, and marked them clearly. Somehow between my old home and my new one, several boxes of clothing, and others filled with photos, etc. didn't make the move. Or at least, they didn't show up here. It was all complicated by the fact that while I had moved into my new abode, I didn't have a certificate of occupancy so I was coming here to get clothing while living in a hotel. [Don't ask; it was a nightmare!] Thus I didn't find out about the missing boxes for some time. I called and asked but no one knew anything. And because it was a local move, I didn't have a bill of lading with numbers for every box. I did ask them to box up a fair amount of stuff--silverware, TV's, and lots of small stuff. I had expected that they would have spent a couple of days packing and then one moving. In the end, they spent one day packing, and then finished up while they were also moving me out. Mark your boxes with numbers so that when they get to the other end you can mark them off. If anything is missing, you will know right away.

They were WONDERFUL!..Came on time. Although there were several "glitches'....(Like my daughter's poor packing and the fact that when we arrived at new residence:..Old furniture had been left in her room that had to be moved to basement before her things could be moved in)......Movers were cheerful, co operative, really could not do enough for us. We were so pleased!

They did an incredible job! Those guys took everything...furniture, boxes and misc. items. They even managed to box up and take a very delicate cactus, which arrived to the new house in perfect condition. We had a bit of a problem with one of the sofas, but the guys put their heads together and made it happen. Each mover was polite, professional and friendly. They moved us out lightning fast, and got our things placed exactly where we wanted in the new house. I would choose Jones Moving and Storage again for my next move.

As far as moving goes, Jones made it as easy as possible
Description of Work: They moved us from Westport Ma. to Providence RI in one day. Greg, Rick and Nick did a really good job. Only one break all day. We have moved 3 times in the last 5 years and Jones was by far the best experience. very respectful of our furniture and both homes. It started to rain after about 9 hours and they still took the time to cover things. Very happy and would recommend them to anyone.

They arrived right on schedule. They were exceptionally careful about backing down my very long and twisting walkway to avoid damage to the yard. They were busy the entire time they were with me and since I had hired them for move only, I was still packing some stuff that was being moved in a POD I had rented plus in my little car. When I was getting to the end of my packing I was running out of everything, packing paper, boxes, etc. They had already loaded my furniture and offered me the extra boxes and a packet of paper that they kept in the truck. My furniture and refrigerator all arrived in perfect condition and were put where I wanted them. The were again careful at my new home putting down pads, covering the new floors with paper and being very careful of the muddy work site.I would hire them again anytime.
Description of Work: I needed a flexible mover since we built the house we were moving into and the house was not in fact completed. The two gentlemen that came to assist were marvelous, courteous and quick. They even offered me some of their extra boxes to finish up some of the packing that was going in my POD and in my car which I felt was above and beyond what they could have done.

I would highly recommend Jones Moving. The crew was very professional and accommodating. They called before they arrived to let us know they were on their way. They showed up on time and never stopped working. They took a quick lunch break during the their drive to our new home and started unloading as soon as they arrived. All of the moving boxes were labeled and they were nice enough to place them in the rooms that were designated on the boxes. Everything from our home fit perfectly in the truck and nothing was damaged. The entire move took roughly 8 hours, well worth every dime!
Description of Work: Moved from a 3 level townhouse to 2 level Colonial. The crew also moved my washing machine that was on the third level of the townhouse. There were three men that showed up.

Can highly recommend this moving company again. If I have to move again and I hope not for a long time they would who I would call.
Description of Work: Arrived on time,complete move from my apartment in east providence to another house to our new home in Lincoln. In every place we stopped they had heavy things to move two places with stairs broke down our beds and reassembled them in our new home. gave great care to our things checking with each piece of furniture to make sure it was wrapped properly and was safe to move in the truck. they checked with us to make sure all furniture and boxes were going to the right rooms and some of our larger pieces were very tough to get up a angled stair case they took great care never gave up on getting a piece somewhere it had to go. Not a scratch on the walls or floors in every place they needed to be. professional in every way. gave us the option of insurance with no sale push at all answered any questions we had about it. I will be calling there manager to praise them to the highest for there fine work!
