A Few Good College Men

Now I just have to find another mover.

After doing my research and finding such great reviews of this company, I thought I had found my mover for both my Craigslist pickups and my upcoming move. I called Dany and set things up for my Craigslist pickups yesterday. I then e-mailed the details and got confirmation. I was set to meet the crew at the first of three pickup locations at 9:30 a.m. Everything seemed fine, and I was quite pleased at this point.

The movers didn’t show up. At 10:15 (45 minutes late), I got an e-mail saying they had overflow from a move the night before and they wouldn’t be able to show up until 1 p.m. I called Dany and he said he would try to arrange to get another truck and split his crew between the other move and mine. I understood this would take a little time (Dany said about an hour) and started to update my other locations to the shift. (I was lucky my other locations–Craigslist sellers who really didn’t know me–were amenable to this situation.) I asked Dany to call me back and confirm once the ball was rolling on things.

I never heard from him again. My calls went straight to voicemail (to a box that was full). My text elicited no response. My e-mails to the company went unanswered.

The Craigslist sellers from my first location were kind enough to host me until after 1 to try to wait out the original estimate. My last e-mail to the company (around 1 p.m.) stated that unless I see them at the location or hear from them by 1:15, I would assume they were not showing up. I never heard from them. They did not show up. End of story.

I am lucky my sellers are very understanding. They are all willing to reschedule with me for next weekend. Now I just have to find another mover. I recommend you do the same.

  1. I would definitely use A Few Good College Men again.

    Excellent movers! They were punctual, efficient, thorough and careful. That said, it still took 4 hours to move furniture for a one-bedroom apt from Silver Spring to Rockville.

    Be aware of that when you see 2-hour specials. Know the charge for extra time before you hire a company. I would definitely use A Few Good College Men again.

  2. Average Good Service

    Still, this probably could have been prevented had the table either been wrapped or not set up against the truck door (which ended up scraping the table when they opened the door).

    I also wasn’t aware that they would be taking a half hour lunch break in between packing and unpacking the truck. I was fine with it, but it would have been nice to know that there was a scheduled uncharged lunch break in the middle of the move.

  3. Never Again

    I understood this would take a little time (Dany said about an hour) and started to update my other locations to the shift.

  4. Unprofessional Did Not Show Up Stopped All Communication

    So, I spoke with Mr. Danny atleast 4 times before the day of the move. On the day of our move he assured me that the movers will be reaching on time. After waiting for the movers past the scheduled time, I called him and he said that they are a bit late and will be reaching in 1 hr. After Waiting for another hour, I called up Mr. Danny again and he said they are on their way and will be arriving in 5 mins..

    I waited for 30 mins but the movers did not arrive and Mr. Danny stopped responding to my calls… I had to get a Uhaul truck and move my stuff myself with the help of some friends… so much for their logo “Make the right moves”.. I will never recommend these losers to anyone.. beware of these bunch of crooks who have no work ethics…

  5. This company was unprofessional, rude, and incompetent.

    We had a very bad experience attempting to do business with this company. We called and spoke to someone on the phone on a Thursday to arrange a Sunday move of a dining room set we bought on Craigslist. Like other reviewers have mentioned, we never got a confirmation email, so we emailed and called to follow up on Saturday. When I spoke to Danny on the phone, he seemed disorganized. He wasn’t able to confirm our move but said he would call me back. He never called me back, so I called to speak to him again. This pattern repeated itself several times as Danny failed to return phone calls despite his assurances that he would do so within 10 or 20 minutes.

    Finally, late on Saturday night he told us we were confirmed for Sunday morning. On Sunday morning he called and said the truck wasn’t coming but he would try to make alternative arrangements. He said he would call me back within 10 minutes, but never called back and never answered my calls. This company was unprofessional, rude, and incompetent.

  6. I had a glasses top cocktail table and one of the movers tried to disassemble

    I had a glasses top cocktail table and one of the movers tried to disassemble the base and forcefully pulled one leg out. He continued to try to pull other legs but couldn’t. Then he tried to put the one disassembled leg back without success. When they unload the furniture they could not find the things that connect the leg to the base.

    Without the leg, the table is not usable at all. I told Danny about the broken table and he picked it up to fix it. He told me that he will call me the next morning but he did not. After a week I called him and he did not fix it. After another week I called him again, he still did not fix it.

    He never contacted me during this period to give any update. I was unhappy and told him that I was going to write a review and contact BBB. Then Danny said if he loses any customer he will SUE me because I lied: I said the table is broken but it is only missing a part and is not broken.

  7. Bad Service.

    Poor service

  8. These movers are not professional at all.

    These movers are not professional at all. One mover broke several pieces of my furniture. The company took over a month to submit the payment to get the repairs made STILL HAVE NOT RECEIVED IT. In addition, the movers damaged my walls by putting holes in them !!!

    The owners of the company were too cheap to hire professional handymen and sent inadequate semi-professionals to repair my walls. I will never use them again. They made my moving experience horrible !! Even after a month, I am still waiting for them to pay for my broken furniture, all they do is offer excuses !!!
