Active Moving, Inc

Active Moving cannot be trusted

Avoid Active Moving Company. I arranged for my move about a month in advance and received a written estimate of 1,500.00 which was reasonable. Then, literally 21 hours before my move, I got a phone call saying Ivan, who I had worked with to get the estimate was mistaken and it would now be $2,500. I got very upset since it was obvious this was a scam and they knew I had very limited options less than 24 hours before my move. Out of desperation, I offered to split the difference and pay $500.00 more but Vitaly said he wouldn't do that and he said I had no right to get angry and that he wasn't responsible for his employee's "mistake." I yelled out of complete frustration and he said he wouldn't do the job for any amount after that. Yes I lost my cool, but it is really upsetting to be scammed like that, less than 24 hours before a scheduled move. Stay away from this company. They cannot be trusted.

pleased with the service

i went with them because they were cheaper comparing to other quotes and i was a little skeptical about the level of service due to this lower price but everything end up being a very good move. recommend

Good moving company

My move went great beginning to end. Movers were professional on both ends, i tipped them well. Time wise it took 5 days from pick up in CA till delivery to my new place in NJ. Their office responded quickly and kept me informed about delivery dates.

Really great service and great movers

These guys started at 8:30 this morning and did a really great job moving all day long. They barely took any breaks at all. Just the five of them have been great workers and moved a ton of stuff. It's been a really good company and I am really proud to have them doing the job for us. Thank you!

5 star service

I just had Active moving me in Brooklyn. I would recommend them to anyone of my friends and family. They were fast, expedient, totally personable. From 1 to 5 I would give them 6 because my experiences with other moving companies have not been up to par and I would be confident using them again.

great service

I rarely write reviews but this mover deserves one for sure. They did excellent move for me. Estimate matched the actual cost. My stuff got to destination without damage and timing was perfect. Sales people helped while preparing for the move which is also a plus. Give them a call!

They did great move for me!

Great service from the start. I was contacted by several companies but I was happy I choose Active Moving. Everything was packed very carefully, timelines were accurate and nothing was damaged upon delivery. Would use them again given the opportunity. Recommend!

excellent move!

this is the second time I've used this company, they were good the first time but this time they were excellent! I would have no hesitation in recommending them. Moving is so stressful but Active makes it a little bit less so.

Fraud company

I found active moving info from moving.com. I checked them out on BBB rating and other websites rating and they had decent ratings but unfortunately I can't give them a good rating for the following reasons. I recently moved from Jersey City, NJ to Morrisville, NC. I was initially contacted by Ivan Parks. They never came to my house to check out the stuff that I will be moving. I emailed Ivan couple of pics of my furniture and other stuff and he gave me an initial quote over the phone. After negotiation Ivan said the final price is $2600 which includes packing two mirrors and TV also including 1 flight of stairs. I specifically asked will there be any surprises and he said no. The $2600 will not change. I asked if I can use trash bags for my clothes and he said no problem. I did get other quotes from other companies and all of them were higher than Active Moving's. When the day of the moving came on July 4th, they came on time early in the morning and this guy named Alex came and looked at my stuff and he said he will have to call the office to get a quote because its a lot of stuff! The quote he gave me on the spot is $4600 and he won't charge me for the stairs! I was so shocked I lost the appetite to talk to Alex. I reluctantly agreed because I had join my office on the 8th. I asked when will I receive my stuff and Alex said most likely next Monday which is the 8th but there is no guarantee. They charged me $2300 on my credit card and said I will have to pay half when I receive my stuff. I called them on the 7th to get a status update and the lady on the phone said most likely on the 10th my stuff will arrive but someone will call me the day before the delivery. Wednesday came and then came Thursday and Friday, nobody called, nobody delivered. I called and the girl said our stuff is in the trailer and will be delivered by Friday. What BS! We were sleeping on the floor and eating on the floor. Thankfully wife brought 2 blankets and 2 pillows. My kids used 2 pillows and I brought 1 more from walmart for my wife and I was using a bag full of clothes as my pillow. We were so frustrated and miserable. Finally on Saturday the 13th Alex called and he said our stuff will be delivered the next day on the 14th. I asked where is my stuff and he said they are still in NJ. I just couldn't believe my ears! Finally after 10 days, two guys show up on the 14th around 9am and guess what they want their remaining balance of $2300 in cash before they start unloading. I said deliver my stuff and I will pay you. This guy said he can't deliver until he gets the money, its the company policy and he adds that his company is the best! I said no I'm the best because I'm paying you even before you moved in a single thing. So I gave them 23 100 dollar bills and they started to unload. the guy said they can only put 1 furniture only once and will not move them twice. After unloading they didn't want to re-assemble the bed and table. I said you guys have the screws and nuts

Very good experience

Big thanks to Active Moving for making my move easy and efficient. Extremely professional team, that was very gentle with all my belongings. Couldn't be more happy with the service, highly recommended!

Will refer to everybody

I want to leave few words about my experience with Active Moving, Inc. I was looking for a professional moving company and I’ve never done it before, so you can imagine my worry and my fears. I did my online research and that’s where I found Active Moving and I found Paul and I am so glad I trusted him with my business. I wanted to tell you Paul that I am going to tell everybody about Active Moving and the wonderful service that you supplied me. Thank you!

Very Informative over the phone, ...

I just wanted to write few words about my move with Active Moving. We were considering doing a move ourselves until one of my good friends did and ended up breaking a lot of his own furniture. So I said to my wife forget it, we need to hire professional. My colleague turned me onto Active Moving and it was the best decision we ever made. First the staff was so friendly and polite and I was surprised how affordable they really were. Their staff made sure everything was well padded and wrapped with shrink wrap to protect from damage. They even helped set up our new home the way that we had our old home I really liked that. The thing I like the best they gave us a call the day before our move day confirming that all was set. I am a scheduler and that was pretty cool! So, thanks again guys. I’ll definitely be passing your name around to everybody I know.

GOD BLESS YOU GUYS!!!!

I can not describe how much I appreciate care and understanding from Active Moving. My items were picked up a week and a half before the storm and I was heading Houston right after movers left. Thank God I left Houston right before the storm crashed and went to my parents in Dallas. As soon as I explained what happened to my movers they redirected my stuff to Dallas and now they going to hold it there in storage FOR FREE until I figure my next step. The dispatch said not to worry even if this will take even months not days. Thank You guys, you are great!

Fraud!!!!! Cheating Company

Moving from NJ to AZ. I spoken to Paul (paul@wemoveny.com) and provided the estimation around 1200$. At the time of pickup they asked me to 2000$ instead of 1200 for same Articles ( Saying that it was wrong estimation generated by computer ) . I have no chance to go to another packers and moves because I have to join the new company and they know my travel dates. If they knows your travel dates they are going to start CHEATING.THEY KNOWS my travel date so they demand for 2000$. Paid half amount at the time of pickup. Waited for 3 weeks and got the call from truck Driver. Again they started Cheating saying I have to pay shuttle cost 350$. I'm not agreed to pay the Shuttle cost then they said they are going to keep the things at Storage. From Storage I have to pickup. This guys are fraud. If you are ready to pay additional amount then choose this guys a Fraud!!!!! Cheating Company my dear friends. It's not DOOR -DOOR service. Service is Door to Storage.

Nicest movers!

Let me just start out by saying great job! Active really went over and beyond when it came to my move. I had to move on short notice due to a promotion and I was not prepared at all. I called a bunch of companies but Active really made me feel like they knew what they were talking about. I talked to them for about 2 hours just going back and forth on what I needed done. It had to be a full pack move which I did not like at all because I hate others touching my things but in the end it worked out great. The movers knew my concern ahead of time and made sure that I was with them if possible in every room they packed just so I would be comfortable. I honestly thought that was the nicest thing they could have done for me. They were funny and very polite and kind!

Great movers!

Absolutely wonderful experience! Nothing went wrong at all, which shocked the heck out of me. Usually I am the person that gets ripped off by moving companies lol. They arrived at my home in NY ready to work and start getting the truck loaded. And let me just say they worked really hard and had such a great attitude! At arrival everything went smoothly as well. They reassembled everything back together for me and made sure that everything was where I wanted it. It was a little different at delivery because they took their time to make sure I was happy with everything. And nothing was broken at all. Active Moving are now my to go guys for moving!

Everything went smoothly!

If I had to rate this move I would say is was pretty good. There was a little mix up with the times the driver would arrive but other then that everything went smoothly. My things were not harmed in any way. And the guys who came to the houses to move me were really friendly and funny guys! They are honestly the reason the move went so well and they are the reason I would move with Active again.

Right choice!

I have been planning my move for months. I just wanted to make sure that everything went smoothly. This was my first move cross country so it was something that I was unfamiliar with. After many phone calls, the folks at Active kept in touch with me updating anything new that I needed to add for my quote. That is the reason I choose them in the end. If they were going to be this attentive before me even being a customer I knew they would handle my move right, and they did!! Everything was packed up for me so professionally, they knew what they were doing because once my things arrived nothing was broken. Before leaving they made sure I accounted for all my things and thank goodness they did because I was missing a lamp and a kitchen box, which were on the truck so it was no biggie. The movers were great! Hardworkers and very polite! I recommend them for anyones future move!!

I would move with them again!

Would I move with Active again? Well YES I WOULD! They were awesome! My things were not damaged and I was able to keep in touch with the driver the whole move. I always knew what was going on and what the next step was. I never felt out of control or not knowing what was going to happen. They kept me well updated and prepared. They did a terrific job with me!!

Movers I can trust!

For once in my life I can say that I found movers that I can trust! Not only did I not get ripped off but all my things were delivered today and nothing was damaged! It was a great moment. I trusted them with my move and I will do so again in the future!

Great jooob!

My move with Active was pretty good. The price was right and it included everything I needed like blanket wrapping. The guys were pretty respectful and answered any questions I needed. Plus I needed to move in a hurry and they were one of the only ones that would do it right away. I thought ok I have to move fast so my things are going to suffer, but it was the total opposite. Furniture arrived in mint condition!! They did a pretty good job!

Recommended!!

My friend recommended Active Moving to me because they did such a great job with her and they did a great job with me as well. Everyone was really nice and they were always making sure that I didn't need anything else or just making sure I was all set with my move. I am a very forgetful person but they kept me on my toes as far as everything that needed to be done. My things are still on the road but I am pretty confident it should arrive unharmed. They wrapped my hutch in 4 blankets to make sure it was well secure, so I think my things are in great hands!

Great job done!

What a move! Can I just say wow! Everyone that I dealt with at Active moving were very responsive and professional. Not once did I ever feel they were trying to sell me my move but they tried to make sure that everything I wanted to happen during my move happened. For example, I needed some help packing because I was just to busy to get everything ready I time. The guys made sure to ask how I wanted things put into the boxes and what items did they need to be careful with. Once my things arrived to me nothing was damaged at all. The movers helped unpack EVERYTHING!! It was really great how they worked and never once did they complain. If anyone is planning on moving in the future, I recommend them! But make sure to look for a company that fits YOUR needs. That is what Active did with me!

Thrilled!

What I enjoyed the most about my move with Active is the fact that I got my furniture and nothing was damaged at all. My things are pretty pricey and that was my worst fear that something was going to get damaged. I stressed this concern to everyone I spoke to and the all assured me that I was in good hands. So I trusted them which was hard but when they got to my pick up place I was impressed. They wrapped my things so tightly and fully that I knew nothing could happen to them. AND I WAS RIGHT!! Unharmed is how they arrived. I was sooooooo thrilled! Thanks Active guys!

Amazing!

First let me start by saying that my move went AmaZING!! And this company is the reason why. Active moving were very professional and let me knew what to expect for my move. Any service they said was going to be done was done and was done right. All my belongings arrived on time and unharmed, what more is there to ask for?

Truly amazing guys!

This is my 2nd move with Active Moving and it went better this time then the first time! The first time I thought they were great but this time they went over and beyond. I had just pulled my back due to a work related accident and I was not able to move anything, not even myself lol. I choose Active because they did great with me the first time and when I told them about my back they had no problem helping me out at all. The movers would not even let me get out of my chair until they had to move it lol. They were terrific! They worked hard and kept a smile on my face which made my day. Once again thank you Active!

Wow!

I could not believe that I found a moving company that I could trust in moving me in the future and I did!!! All I have to say is WHOAH! Smoothest move ever! Before I paid my deposit I wanted details about when they will get here or to my new place or phone numbers for drivers etc. They made me feel comfortable even if it took 1 month before I booked my move. They were patient with me and everything they said they were going to do was done!

Nicely done!

These guys did some kind of job!! Everyone at Active Moving were so great! From the moment I spoke to them I knew I could trust them and I was right. Nothings was damaged and the best part is I paid what they told me I would pay in the end which has never happened to me or my famiy ever!!! My whole life all I did was move and get ripped off, so I am soooo glad that I found Active. The movers really made me feel like they were there not only to work but to help. Thanks guys! You truly did a great job!

Thanks guys!

These guys did everything I asked and more! I wanted all my large things wrapped for no damage and they wrapped each item with more then one blanket and pads for protection! I told them that I needed my things ASAP because I have a 2 yr old with a crib, they did not promise me but told me they would try and they did! Best move yet!! Great job guys and thanks again!

yay!

Way to go!! The movers were amazing! Anything I wanted done was done.. no questions asked. Before they thought they were done with anything they awaited my approval. I felt like I ran the show not the other way around. And man did they take care of my stuff. They wrapped it up so good I knew that nothing could damage my items and I was right! My items arrived unharmed ¦ put a HUGE smile on my face. Great job guys you will be hearing from my co workers who also have to move!

Great job

I can not believe what I great job they did. They were very respectful and hardworking. They never complained once and always asked what was the next thing I WANTED DONE!! I have moved many many times and this is the first time that I felt in full control of my move! They did a great job and I want to recommend them to the world!!

Amazing

These guys were amazing, and very calm! Completely organized and prepared for work. I felt like they were in and out in no time which I would be lying if I said that they didn't take long lol. Then again pretty quick on job time. Surprisingly they didn't bang or scratch my furniture. Really happy with the results.

Great

Everyone that I dealt with were very professional! No circles, they gave all straight answers and did not beat around the bush once. My things were not damaged at all due to the great professional wrapping the movers did. The guys that actually moved me were so hardworking I was shocked. They took very little breaks and when I told them to take a break they said they were fine and kept working, they were great guys! I would recommend moving with this company, due to their professionalism. You will be very impressed as I was.
