They were great! Art's scheduling was respectful of my time, and their estimate was on target vs. simply an hourly rate, which I appreciated.
Dimitri and the other mover were very careful and wrapped everything well. They also accommodated my special requests with kindness and ease, and helped me figure out what to do with some of my furniture.
Dimitri and the other mover went above and beyond helping me find my garbage bag with papers in it after I forgot to tell them not to pack it, and they unwrapped multiple wardrobe boxes to find it. They also setup my stuff so it looks even better than I expected.
Would totally work with them again!

Dima and Alym diligently and professionally moved family heirlooms from storage for me. They arrived on time, let me know exactly when they would be there, and suggested smart ways to move and manage the items.

I hired Expert Moving for my 1-bedroom second-floor loft move. After years of living there, I had a tremendous amount of stuff, including stacks of banker boxes and storage bins. The team worked diligently over two days, one to pack and one to move. I especially appreciate all their effort given the several flights of stairs involved. Thankfully the new place has an elevator.
From the quick first response on Thumbtack to the last boxes in my new place, Expert Moving was professional, courteous and friendly to work with. They are a hard-working crew that will get your moving job done properly. Hire with confidence!

Expert Moving and Storage did wonderful medium-size move for me, going above and beyond by packing up my art supplies without my asking. It was very helpful!

An almost impossible feat to move a 360lb desk to a Victorian home. These guys can move anything without chipping your walls and floors.

FAQs
What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
To provide a personalized quote, we need a few details about the move first.
But, based on our experience, most small moves require just a truck and 2 movers with equipment. Therefore, for small moves, we run a SMALL MOVE PROMO:
Flat, all-inclusive rate of $109 per hour (FRI-SAT is +$10, credit card payment +$10).
There are no additional fees for truck delivery, fuel, or packing materials – you pay your rate multiplied by the actual hours worked! Simple as that.
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
The team arrives at the customer's preferred time. The foreman introduces the team, and together they inspect the premises and scope of work.
Next, the foreman explains the terms of service and provides a more precise estimate of the time needed for the job.
After the contract is signed, the job begins, and the paid time starts.
Upon completion of the job, the foreman notifies the customer about the finished work and offers to inspect the transported items and the truck cargo box to ensure everything has arrived in order.
Following this, the customer signs the contract and completes payment for the job.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
Our company holds a license issued by the Bureau of Household Goods & Services, a credential granted after an evaluation of financial stability, commitment to safety, presentation of insurance documentation, and criminal background checks conducted by the Department of Justice and the FBI.
