It’s so hard to find moving companies that are reliable. Boxes going missing have become almost expected during every move. But that risk is really minimized when you hire Big boy moving & storage. When they delivered all my belongings to Indiana from Ohio on time and without any damage, right then I decided that I must write them a recommendation. Big boy moving & storage is not cheap by any means. But their movers work efficiently to save your hard earned cash. On top of that, they take inventory at the beginning of the move and make sure that each item arrives at the final destination. I’m not even bothering to mention how skilled and capable the movers were. I was just relieved to have received everything in great condition.
I used big boy moving & storage twice and as expected their service was first class again. I respect these guys and like their work ethic. The effort the put in every aspect of the move was just amazing. Arrived on time, straightway started working, packing was quick and good quality. Technique they applied for loading was great. They kept me updated when they were on the way to our new place. My drop off was just as great as pick up. They placed my things where I wanted them and helped me put everything back together. Fantastic guys! I will definitely moving with them if I ever leave my new place.
We moved from Miami, FL to Virginia Beach, VA very easily. All the credit goes to Big boy moving & storage for being so efficient and reliable. I knew they were going to be good when I first called them and the man on the phone went out of his way to provide me a good quote. All four movers were very strong and energetic. They didn’t waste any time while packing. Their packing skills were fantastic and they utilized the packing materials properly. They finished loading everything in record time and set off to Virginia. They arrived there even before we did. I took an inventory and everything was in great condition. I’m happily recommending them to everyone.
Last time I hired a moving company, the movers and I didn’t quite gel and it was a disaster. This time when I was moving from PA to IL. I made a lot of calls to get an idea about which of the moving companies is really good. I hired Big boy moving & storage because of the word of mouth. The crew arrived right on time on the moving day. The foreman was a very strong and experienced man who was always ready to help with a bright smile on his face. He constantly motivated his men to work faster and more efficiently. I have a lot of stuffs. So it took the men 4 hours to get through everything. But the men didn’t demand a break or even winced once. They packed everything very creatively. I got the proof of that when everything arrived in Chicago in pristine condition. I owe these guys big thanks.
I never look forward to moving from one place to another. But that is the job after all. I usually just hire a van and wing it on my own. This time I decided to hire Big boy moving & storage. They seemed quite inexpensive with the estimate so I just hired them. Their crew was very prompt and efficient. All my belongings were swiftly packed into boxes. My furniture was wrapped in shrinking tape. These are the things I never could do on my own. But these little precautions helped safeguarding my valuables all the way from Tampa, FL to Denver, CO. It was such an easy relocation. I really think it’s worth hiring Big boy moving & storage to save you some stress.
My wife swore that she would never leave Memphis. But life takes you to the strangest of places. After deciding to downsize, my wife and I decided to move to Philadelphia. We were moving on a very busy weekend and finding a moving company was like looking for needle in a hay stack. After weeks of calling, we finally secured an appointment with Big boy moving & storage. Their crew of 5 men arrived right on time on the moving day. The movers had more appointments that day and so they were very fast at the job. I imagined they would be quite tired but they showed no sign of fatigue whatsoever. They carried big pieces of furniture with ease and it took them only 3 hours to finish the whole thing. The delivery was made the next day as requested. One of my wife’s stuffed owls suffered a damaged head but everything else traveled just fine. This move would have been absolutely impossible without these guys!
I hired Big boy moving to move my belongings from Richmond, VA to Detroit, MI. I wasn’t particularly happy about having to move but I had to do it. Big boy moving & storage sent over 4 movers who were on time and got to work immediately. I had a lot of stuffs. But the movers didn’t complain about a thing. They put their heads down and packed for hours. It took them 6 hours to pack and load everything from a 5 bedroom house. I would call that very efficient. The best thing about the movers was that they were so hard working while still smiling. They were experienced and very skilled. I am thoroughly impressed seeing how professional these men were.
I don’t expect much from the moving companies as they have a reputation of over estimating themselves. I hired Big boy moving & storage for my move from Baltimore to Charleston simply because I thought their quote was low and I could save some money. But they really delivered on the promise. Their men were very well trained and superbly professional. I do own some very expensive pieces of furniture and I was worried how they were going to handle them. But I was so relieved to find them taking extra care with my key pieces. It took them 4 hours of tireless hard work to remove everything from my house and load them onto the vans. I received the delivery on time and my belongings were in very good condition. I couldn’t have asked for more.
When my boss told me that I was taking over the charge of our Portland office, I panicked thinking how was I going to move all the stuffs I have painstakingly collected over the years and start over in Oregon. But, luckily, big boy moving & storage helped me with the move and everything went smoothly. I knew about their amazing reputation and so I just had to hire them. When I called them, they said that they didn’t have any movers available on the requested date. But I insisted and they called me back in 10 minutes to tell me that they have somehow managed 3 movers for me. The men were so efficient and really took good care of my stuffs while packing and carrying them to the vans. Everything was done without me having to interfere. It took them 4 hours to pack up everything at my Los Angeles apartment. I received the delivery right on the schedules date as I expected. Everything traveled well without even a scratch mark on them. I always knew how good this company is and it was worth the push to get them help me.
Big boy moving was simply fantastic! From the first moment and right throughout the whole process, they were helpful, efficient and extremely professional. They responded immediately to my request for a quote and it was very moderate and detail. The guys were amazing! They arrived on time, loaded up and were very quick to start for my new house. They were friendly and easy to deal with. Everything was done perfectly, couldn't be better than that. I would not hesitate to recommend them to anyone else. They made moving house a whole lot easier!
My friend moved to California 3 months ago and he has been telling me about his movers damaging all his furniture in the storage facilities they were kept. So, naturally, I was very concerned when it was time for me to move to Charleston, SC from Dallas, TX. After looking through online reviews I decided to hire Big boy moving & storage. Turns out they employ some of the most capable men in business and they have excellent storage facilities. All my stuffs were neatly packed and moved to the storage unit. They turned up in Charleston on the given date right on schedule completely unharmed. I was very happy with their services. I called my friend and advised him which company to hire next time he moves.
It was a move I was dreading for the amount of stuffs I had to pack and move from Sunrise, FL to Denver, CO. I was going to try to make the move on my move and hire a few vans. But my brother suggested that I hire a moving company. So, I hired Big boy moving & storage simply because their rates were amazing. I didn’t know what to expect but in the end, they really made my move so easy. Everything was packed and moved out by the crew very methodically and cautiously. I could have never done the same job with half the level of efficiency even with the help of my strongest friends. Big boy moving & storage really saved a lot of time and energy of mine and I am forever grateful.
I am probably such a misfit among the shiny people at the NY. But hey I am from Buffalo and I have a thick skin! Good thing is that I was able to bring a piece of home with me when I moved here from Buffalo, NY. My movers were always smiling while working. And where I'm from - a smile means a lot. These guys knew their job inside and out. But they did it all while acting like humans, not trained robots. I suppose that adds certain something into their service and you don't mind paying the standard moving fees which may seem ridiculous otherwise. Overall, this company - Big boy moving & storage is highly rated and recommended.
From the very first telephone call, the staffs from Big boy moving & storage was very professional and gracious. We arranged a survey to assess the work involved and to gain a quote. The surveyor was on time and very efficient. He went away and came back to me the next day with a very competitive price. On the day the crews arrived on agreed time, cautiously and cleanly moved all our furniture. At the other end there was a delay in collecting the keys, but they didn’t complain. Once we received the keys, they quickly moved all our goods into the house with no fuss. I would surely recommend them to anyone.
This move of mine from Jacksonville to Phoenix was a little different as it had a very special clause. You see, when I decided to move to Phoenix I had already sold my house back home and hadn't really fixed a place to stay in Phoenix. So I hired Big boy moving to do a two-part-moving where at first they take all my stuffs and store them in a hired storage vault. In part two, once I had fixed a place to stay, they bring my stuffs from the vault to Arizona. This is not your everyday moving request but Big boy moving was very flexible and happy to help in any way they can. They even suggested me where to hire the storage vault. All my belongings arrived safely at my given time after I had rented this house I'm living in now. The sun is definitely shining in Arizona today!
I was little confused when I searched the net to hire a mover. So many options!! Anyway I checked the online ratings and called 7/8 companies and asked for the quote. Only big boy moving provided an onsite estimate and asked for the best price possible. I booked with them. These guys did not let me down. The lead man arrived on time with his helpers and loaded all our belongings but before doing that they checked the boxes for the safety and made the necessary adjustments. They made sure the delivery was on time and there was not a single thing damaged or broken. Everything was perfectly planned and executed. 5 stars from my side.
Moving to another state or across the country means you have to spend a lot and you must use a reputed mover. So, I kept sufficient budget for my relocation and hired Big boy moving & storage for their great online reputation. They offered a great deal and assigned the best crew and the foreman with his team mates delivered the best results. They were effortlessly packing and loading my stuffs. All my valuables and breakables were nicely wrapped and boxed and loaded safely. After the timely delivery, I checked the inventory and did not notice any breakage. These guys have delivered the best move of my life.
Big boy moving & storage sent a team of four good people with good heart. They are good people because they served the purpose more than accurately. They did not let any of my goods to be handled by me and made sure that each of them remains safe. They were good hearted people as well. Want to know how? Because, they were very transparent regarding any query and became very close to our heart. Good people give good experiences. It certainly was such.
I was scared this time. Last moving experience of mine was a disaster. This time I could not afford to make it a mess. I went with Big boy moving & storage they were referred by a friend. And thanks to that friend first of all. They just nullified my fear. They took over the thing and did it their way. I finally finished with all my things moved from MD to KY. They also charged me very reasonable. Therefore, I am happy that I finally made another move and this time there was no hassle. Thanks to Big boy moving & storage.
When I called Big boy moving, I didn’t have anyone else who could provide me the relocation support due to the eleventh hour’s call. Big boy moving eagerly came forward to support me. They very swiftly gave me a quotation which I accepted because it was acceptable rather than being the only option. The crews along with the hunk foreman came on the next day and processed everything very coolly. In the entire time they didn’t let feel for once that it was a contingent plan. Very smooth and breakage free execution. Now I thank my God to make sure the only option and that was Big boy moving.
I hired Big boy moving & storage to move from SC to VA. They were very professional and quick with the move. The piano was carefully wrapped and expertly moved up the stairs. The piano was in the exact same condition as it was before they picked it up. The movers were friendly and easy to work with. I highly recommend Big boy moving & storage.
Big boy moving crews came on time. They didn’t wait for any instructions since it was given earlier. No snatching or push-pull. It was done by experienced hands with the help of modern instruments. Double wrapping all the stuffs made sure everything is safe. These all happened within a very cost effective budget. Well, now I think it is undoubtedly a good one.
I used their service last weekend to move from KY to NC. The movers are very nice. After I signed all the paper work, they started to move stuff immediately and they did not stop working until they loaded everything on the truck. When we reached at our new home, they very patient and helped with every single request that we made! This move could not get any better! Thanks to everyone at Big boy moving.
I think hiring Big boy moving was a right choice. They are the real mover. Their professionalism deserves to be mentioned in a positive way. Their rep and dispatcher continuously answered all my queries and their estimate was no way unarguable. And regarding the service, they actually are the players of this field. You will believe until you see them working. Smooth packing and smooth loading, same for unloading and resetting in my new house. The bill was almost accurate to the quotation. Good to see real people working for you.
The crews and the foreman of Big boy moving were very vibrant. They came before the given time and started moving my stuffs. They double wrapped all my furniture and loaded it after carrying it from 4th floor to the ground without any scratch. They transported it pretty faster and then again unloaded the stuffs with immense care. Finishing the entire task within the given schedule was unexpected. I have to admit that Big boy moving is the booster.
I have used Big boy moving & storage twice now and have had two really good experiences with them. They are fast, professional and made sure they stayed within the budget I had for the move. In fact they stayed well under it! My latest crew of 3 was excellent in packing and loading. They were very friendly, showed up on time, called before arriving and were delicate with my furniture...no damage! Everything went as smooth as it could get…. Thanks for the help guys.
No jerk, no issues, a super smooth service achieved because of Big boy moving & storage. It was while I was relocating from Miami, FL to Atlanta, GA. It was a sudden one and just on the right moment they popped up and rescued me from such a potential hassle. Thanking them from the bottom of my heart.
I had a set perception that movers are just people of words, not people of works. Previously all the movers I used, they were very busy to build this perception up. Big boy moving & storage somehow created a new one by providing me extremely good service last week while I was moving to KY. I had a clear comparison from the very beginning while they were brief but informative about answering my query. The people they sent were exceptionally good and skilled which helped me to keep my things uninjured all through the relocation. After reaching my new house I was about to pay C.O.D. I was surprised to see no extra or hidden charge. I think I have changed my mind.
Getting a good mover is luck. Hence, I was lucky this time, because I hired Big boy moving & storage for moving to Bronx, NY. There is a thin line between good work and fabulous work. I think they were fabulous. They were just perfect in every possible means. They were easy to communicate, easy to instruct and super easy with the work. I got my job done within my schedule. And the best part was I found each of my stuffs safe and sound in my new residence.
Great experience with Big boy moving & storage on a move from SC to WV last month! Their 3 men team did a fantastic, careful, highly professional job with our furniture and boxes on both sides of the move, and even helped us arrange heavy furniture in exactly the placement we wanted it in our new place. Despite significant complications with the buildings on both ends, they kept their cool and kept moving. Literally: not a moment's rest for any of them all day long. Thanks, guys!
What a bunch of professional, trustworthy and efficient people work for big boy moving & storage! Whenever I came into contact with them they repeatedly proved to be the best in the business. In last 3 years I used them 3 times, twice for my house move and once for my office move. Every time I got the best output from them. Last time when I used them for my house move they came with a large truck and also with the best quality packing materials and like the previous moves they used their all expertise to make everything happened very smoothly. We found no broken items when we were unpacking at my new resident. No fuss made about anything! I thoroughly recommend this professional company.

Big boy moving is the best mover anyone can ever assign. This might sound exaggerated, but you won’t believe if you don’t experience them. I did.

Big boy moving moved my family last weekend. Over the past 20-years, I've used 6 different moving companies and Big boy moving is at the top of that list. Great communication with the sales rep during the planning / quoting phase. He set my expectations very well. The crew was professional, courteous, friendly, and hard-working; and they took sincere care of our belongings. Not a scratch in both homes and zero damage to our belongings. Definitely recommended.
I received an ETA call a couple of hours before the truck showed up. The movers were skilled and careful with my furniture. They moved the pieces. They carefully carried down everything from the 3rd floor which was hard to do because of the narrow staircase. I liked everyone I dealt with and I am planning on hiring Big boy moving again when my furniture is ready to come back home. I definitely recommend them.
After my recent relocation with Big boy moving, I have to admit that this is one of the best companies available to use. I was impressed like anything to see all my belongings arrived in one piece and without any damage. They not only presented an error free move, they also completed the move earlier than the schedule and charged the same amount mentioned in the original quote. No hidden cost, no unwanted circumstances. I just loved the way they managed everything. These guys are real professionals.
