Booska Movers in Vermont provided excellent service! We were very pleased with their level of professionalism right from the start. Every time I called them, someone answered the phone and was able to help me out. Matt came out and gave us an estimate. Jamie ,our driver, and his team, Caleb and Josh were all professional, friendly and took great care of our furniture. They were prompt and hard working. Jamie drove the truck out west and called us 2 days in advance to let us know what day he would be arriving with our furniture. I can't say enough great things about this company. Moving can be very stressful, especially if you are going across country and Booska Movers were outstanding!!

Couldn't be more pleased. The Booska staff in Burlington was careful with our possessions--they packed for us--and professional and helpful throughput. In Texas, the three local men who helped unload, were just as hardworking as the Vermonters. Special kudos for our driver Jamie, who managed the move from beginning to end. He even found our little dog, who we thought had slipped out. Talk about going above and beyond! My one complaint is that the weight of the shipment was 1000 lbs more than the estimate; a variance of 200-300 lbs is one thing, but 1000 lbs translated into $1000 more. But we definitely recommend Booska. See if you can get Jamie as your driver.

We were very pleased with the service we received. Cory and Nick loaded, transported and repacked the storage unit. They did a great job. They were knowledgeable and took great care of our possessions. They worked long and hard with hardly a break. We only wish we were closer so that we could have them do the final move to our new house when it's ready.

Very well. All Booska staff (estimator, scheduler, crew) were responsive and great to deal with. Crew arrived on time and worked very hard to get the move done as quickly as possible (the cost came in under the estimate).

They were prompt with their estimate - about half what we were quoted from another mover. The Estimate was RIGHT ON! We did have to pay a little extra because they packed more that was originally estimated, but expected. They showed up on time, to do the packing and then to do the loading. We had them load at the home and a storage facility. They arrived in Ohio at the agreed upon time - Unpacked us at another storage facility and our home. Very efficient and professional.

They came on the 28th to pack up with us. They returned on the 30th of June. They covered all the furniture with padding and plastic wrap. They loaded the truck There was a crew of three. On the second of July they arrived as anticipated and moved our things into things into the new home. They were very courteous and polite. There was almost no significant damage considering the amount moved. They were very responsive to all requests and very professional. The final bill was less than the estimate.

Jason and Joel were professional, friendly, accommodating, and punctual. They took immaculate care in packing my Mom's belongings. They were respectful in all interactions. They helped us make plans to move some of her things from Vermont to my sister's home in Pennsylvania. They were equally impressive with the unloading. I will be using Booska in the near future.

This company was very professional from Day 1 - they always returned my emails promptly, were easy to reach on the phone and packed everything up without a hitch. If you have valuable antiques or anything else that needs to be transported, this is the company to go with!

The two young men, who moved us, arrived a couple minutes before the expected time. They walked through our house to figure out what would be loaded. It was a rainy day and they braved the cold and rain, swiftly moving up and down our winding grand staircase (we are in a 4-unit apartment/old house) with all our boxes and furniture. My husband and I were amazed watching them take several heavy boxes at once and loading it strategically on the truck. The drive up took an hour in the rain. They informed us what was allowed on the truck and what was covered by the basic company insurance. The loading took 4 hours and when they arrived at our newly purchased house they asked us where each item went once it was unloaded from the truck. The unloading took about 3 hours. Not one thing was broken in the move. We got a $50 coupon from Booska for the local move and were able to deduct it from the bill. They also processed credit card payment on their smartphone and immediately emailed us a receipt. We will definitely use Booska for our next move.
Description of Work: Moved our stuff from Vergennes to Burlington. It was about 2,000 pounds from a 2-bedroom apt to a 3 bd house.

Overall this was a good experience. There were a couple of small hiccups, but nothing that would cause us to avoid them in the future. I first started with an estimated inventory on-line and waited for a response from Booska. When I didn't hear anything by the 3rd or 4th day, I called them and left a message for the scheduler. She got back to me the following day with an estimate of how many people and how much time, and we were able to schedule a move within a week. (No, I didn't want it to be that close, but long story!) I called again a few days later and they didn't mind an added stop to a storage unit when we realized the new appartment couldn't fit a piece of our big heavy furniture; it just added a little bit of time on the clock for us. So, for us to avoid impossible one-man lifting and renting a truck, it was worth the money in the long run for the day's labor of two people and truck to get the stuff from one place to the other all in one shot. One down side they didn't mention: they start charging you the hourly rate for the truck and people from the time they leave their facility; so even if they are later than planned, you are on the clock. Possibly to save themselves, and/or us time, at drop off, they didn't pay attention to the box markings as to where things were going to end up. They piled all the boxes into one front room (which was good in the end), without any organization or regard to where it was going (which was bad). April did however find two boxes we marked as "MUST HAVE" so those things didn't get completely lost in the mountain. Another bad thing was Mother Nature and a leaky truck. We had one foot stool get soaked, but so far it's not molding, and dried out well.
Description of Work: We used Booska to move out a 3rd floor (with elevator) 2 bedroom condo with some heavy furniture and A LOT of pre-packed boxes from one local town to another and into a 3rd floor (with elevator) 2 bedroom apartment. The people were GREAT and April was really hard working, not affraid of anything (don't let her size fool you!). If I used them again, I would ask for her specifically. They came in and surveyed quickly what we had to move then got right to work. They didn't ask us for a thing. The two of them and their multiple furniture and hand cart dollies did the rest. They loaded the truck, unloaded one piece at our storage facility, then drove to our new location. When they arived here, they unloaded in the reverse and brought the furniture into the rooms we needed it and it was all quite simple on our end.

The only bad thing that happened was right at the beginning. They were over an hour late because my address had been mis-printed on the work order. Unfortunately our town has the same street name with different endings, e.g. abc drive and abc lane. I explained this when I scheduled the move to be sure they wouldn't get it confused, and also called 3 times to confirm, so I'm not sure how they got it mixed up? (Maybe multi-tasking when they were taking the job order and not paying attention? Maybe an outdated GPS?) Once they arrived, they sized out the situation and got to work immediately. These guys do not waste time. The price I quoted was expensive, but I had a ton of stuff and these guys busted their butts. I have never seen 3 men work so hard. These guys were able to pick up very heavy items single-handedly, and they were FAST. They also took care to wrap my furniture very carefully. The price included a couple very short breaks (such as a 10 minute lunch break after 4 hours of heavy work), which I did not mind paying at all.I should mention that one of the guys emptied my A/C in my driveway which unfortunately left a stain on the blacktop which I wasn't able to remove for the new owners. Drove by the other day and the stain is still there. Ooops. I am fairly certain he probably wasn't aware it would leave a stain, because it was obvious he was trying to be careful, just by emptying the A/C. Also, the guys left their box of garbage in my garage. I'm guessing this was just an oversight, and it wasn't a huge deal considering they did a great job overall.
Description of Work: Booksas moved me from my townhome of 10 years to a local storage unit. I hired 3 guys at an hourly rate, and the entire job took about 8 hours.
