Vincent was super professional, he said yes ma'am, no ma'am, and was a really hard worker.
Summary: 12 PM - 4:30 PM was spent loading/unloading a 2bd/2ba apartment with 3 guys at $150 an hour. Total was $790ish. We paid in cash, supposedly there's a 6% discount for that. We were so tired, and anxious to be over this ordeal that we paid $800 in cash, and said goodbye.
I have used Mighty Men Moving at least three times for local moves in the Northern Virginia area. They are a great company and I give them my highest recommendation. They are always on time, they are highly intelligent, and they know the mechanics of properly moving household items. If I make any more local moves, I'm calling Mighty Men Moving!
I had booked a move with Two Men and a Truck, and they waited until I'd driven nearly an hour to our agreed-upon location to tell me they were going to be THREE HOURS LATE for my two o'clock move. This would put me finishing the move sometime around 10 pm. Understandably, I was furious and they were indifferent. They took no responsibility for the problem whatsoever.
I have never used a moving company to move before so I was a little nervous about hiring a company to move my belongings. I'm so happy that I did because not only did they do a fantastic job, they were very friendly and professional. They arrived on time and were ready to do their jobs. I would definitely recommend them to anyone who is moving and doesn't want to do it by themselves to hire this moving company. I can almost guarantee that you won't be disappointed because I know that I wasn't.
There was another mover who never introduced himself and was so unpleasant to be around! He was so unfriendly and aggressive that AJ actually switched places with him and began to do the moving/unloading so that the antisocial mover could stay at the truck.
The same man that mounted the furniture was antagonistic towards me. I thought he was just a disgruntled employee because he'd mutter things under his breath the entire move, but I did my best to avoid him. But in our new apartment I asked where the box was going he was carrying, he responded by sarcastically telling me "I don't know, I didn't label them, can't you read?!" I couldn't believe what I was hearing. After giving him a few seconds to calm down, I asked if he was okay to continue the move. It was such a terrifying experience to have someone so angry for no apparent reason in my home! AJ switched places with him, so that worker stayed at the truck. I'm sorry I can't include his name, he wouldn't tell me his name at any point during the move.
During the initial walkthrough, after seeing our closets, I guessed we'd need 8/9 wardrobe boxes. They brought up 4. Between their experience and guess work, it was really a waste of time for them to bring up 4 boxes. While they loaded furniture into our freight elevator we could have been packing our wardrobe, but instead we had to wait for them to decide to bring us more wardrobe boxes!
AJ was nice, he was the driver. He must have been responsible for the loading/unloading, because we didn't see him, except for the very end when he took the place for the aggressive mover.
Experience: When they arrived, 5 min after the meeting time, they called me, and asked for a walkthrough.
If you're looking for movers, stop looking and hire Mighty Men Movers in Gulfport. They're locally owned, extremely professional, put the customer first and are willing to go the extra mile to get you out/in your home with a minimum of stress.
Drive time: To continue a somewhat disappointing experience, they took a full 60 minutes to drive from Reston to Arlington. Of course, sometimes that timeline is accurate BUT my boyfriend left when they did and arrived a full 25 minutes before them. I got gas, and picked up food before making the drive to Arlington, and I arrived at the same time as them! It was really a waste of our time. Maybe they go really slow, maybe they stopped for something, maybe they know they charge you for an hour of travel so they want to take up the entire hour.
Expertise: After a walkthrough of the apartment I was most disappointed by the lack of moving expertise, or knowledge they could provide. For context, this moving company has wardrobe boxes and mattress covers in their truck that can be "rented" for your move. We took advantage of their moving boxes, instead of buying our own ahead of time. We hoped to pack our closests up, while they wrapped and loaded the other boxes and furniture.
These guys were terrific! They called the day before they were coming to remind me; they called the day of to see if it was okay to come earlier; they did the job very quickly and professionally. They were moving a piano from one home to our new home and handled it very well. I couldn't believe how quickly it was in place. AND I got a 5% discount because I paid in cash.
Staff:
I cannot recommend them highly enough. Save your money, save the headache, and hire local. Get Mighty Men to handle your move. You won't regret it.
TL;DR: Nothing was damaged (if you don't count scratched walls). Still, I wouldn't recommend these movers. No uniforms, no booties, and overall we felt we had to supervise the entire ordeal, in general professionalism was really lacking. One mover (who refused to tell me his name) was actually aggressive towards me!
I almost canceled moving this weekend altogether until someone recommended Mighty Men. They were on the job within an hour of my call and were WAY cheaper than TMAAT. And they sent three men instead of two. All three were polite, professional, efficient and worked non-stop until the truck was packed and we were on our way. When we arrived, the contents hadn't shifted one inch. No scratches. No broken items. Everything was perfect. They unpacked everything lightning fast, yet invariably asked "what room?" for every single item.
Professionalism: There are no uniforms, it'd be impossible to tell them apart from people walking on the street. Also they didn't wear booties, and they didn't have booties to put on at our request, we have hardwood but carpet in the bedrooms, so that was disappointing. At one point I came in the living room to find the mover who (literally) refused to give me his name sprawled across the couch to retrieve pillows. He could have walked around the couch and retrieved them, but instead with his street clothes and shoes on, he mounted the furniture? It was so disappointing.
