So I mostly use Trustpilot to name and shame evil behaviour from bad companies. Not the case today! Kudos to the Movers not Shakers team who did an outstanding job for my move in London from A to Z.... See more

Alessandro and the whole team were terrific from our first communication to our last. With four movers, they handled everything with care and a quickness (no elevator in either apartment). I think the... See more

Great Movers

From the estimating and booking process to the actual move, they made me feel confident the move would go smoothly, and it did.

Great until....

Ok so they showed up on time booking was fairly easy although once they found out how much i had to spend on move ironically the quote went up to just that. The guys came big burly worked quickly and were great until we got to new home and discovered they broke my tv. They cracked the frame and went and bought crazy glue to fix it. I wasn't there but my boyfriend noticed it and then when I inspected tv they got the glue all over the tv and screen its pretty much impossible to remove so other than that was ok. However also beware they are not shy to ask and remind you again and again about their tip!

Professional and efficient.

All the guys were very friendly, professional and the service was very time efficient. All belongings were treated with care and the guys were very helpful in putting all my furniture and boxes where I wanted them. Would highly recommend these guys to others :-)

Quick Easy Friendly!

The guys came in like gangbusters in a very gentle way. Were professional, easy to work with and very fast! On the other end, they brought everything in and put all the furniture back together. The whole move took about 3 hours. Though I wasn't moving far, I couldn't have done it without Mark and his team. Thanks guys.

Another successful move!

We have used Movers Not Shakers for several moves. Once again, service was quick, courteous and the price was very reasonable. Wouldn't use any one else!

Best. Move. Ever.

My apartment flooded (yes that can happen in NYC). Life became a crazy mess and I needed to move our belongings into storage and my family out of our apartment ASAP! Here is where one would cue superhero music ... I contacted a few moving companies and knew Movers Not Shakers was the company I wanted to have move us from the first phone call!

Gregg and Bri in the office - Fantastic! Responsive! Courteous! On it!

I had two different crews move me - one crew moved us out, another moved us back in. I thought I couldn't be happier with a crew more than I was with the one that moved us out ... but the one that moved us back in made me equally, if not even more, happy!

Both crews - Punctual! Efficient! Friendly! Careful! Organized! Clean! Communicative! Professional!

Movers Not Shakers was everything I hoped for. These guys did a stand up job! I recommend them with confidence. They took what was a really hard situation for me and my family and put my mind at ease, handled the move with ease and made the entire process from start to finish painless.

Thank you Movers and Shakers - you're the BEST in the business!

They did not arrive on time

Movers, Not Shakers, arrived three hours late. They claimed it was because of a broken truck. But they did not call to update me on the status of their arrival. The actual move went off well, but I was really disappointed that the company didn't value my time enough to at least keep me in the loop as to when the movers might arrive.

Great and fast service

Professional, friendly, efficient and fast! I would recommend them to anyone who is moving. It's amazing how quickly the job was done. They even disassembled and reassembled my daughters crib in her new room.

Great Moving Experience

The movers were professional, friendly and accommodating. The few items I needed to move were wrapped and moved carefully and efficiently.

Movers were great. Managers were terrible.

The person who coordinated my move was rude to me on the phone, didn't respond to emails and voice mails, and forgot to send more bins when I requested them. The guys who delivered the bins and the guys who did the actual move were on time, friendly, fast, capable, smart, and all together perfect. It's probably worth it to use Movers not Shakers, but I really wish they'd shake down the front office.

OK service

This is the second time I use movers not shakers. First time was great, had no issies with them.
The second move they did not put the bed up together and left the house with a frown, seems like they weten't happy with the tip and were not happy with it.

Great Moving Experience

I had such a smooth and easy moving experience with Movers Not Shakers. Alex was the point person and he was very kind, efficient, and facilitated a seamless move. He and his crew, Sherzod, Zafar, and Rusfam, were professional, punctual, and careful with all my belongings. I had multiple stops and was moving upstate and they were patient with all aspects of my move. This is the second time I've used them and would highly recommend them.
