    I used Advantage to help move my brother into his new apartment. They did a good job and everything was transported safely. Estimate was very accurate. I recommend them to anyone who needs a mover.

    The move was wonderful! The movers showed up even before I arrived. They came in, and quickly got everything moved out and into the truck. Once we got to my place, they did the same and got everything in my apartment and set up in a matter of minutes! The guys were all extremely friendly and helpful, and were patient with all my worries about the items not fitting through my door. They were so efficient that the person I was buying my items from asked for their services for her move! I would definitely recommend Advantage Movers to anyone and I will definitely use them in any future moves I have.

    I was extremely happy with the services which were provided to me on a short notice. They were reliable on time and hassle-free. I must say the staff was pleasant and willing to go the extra mile. It is a pleasure to do business with a company who has the interest of the customers and not their own first. I would recommend this company to anyone who is looking to have a easy and reliable move.

    Ok, I don't know where to start, but PLEASE READ THIS BEFORE YOU BOOK THEM. My new Room & Board bed got completely wrecked I'm enclosing the link to the flickr album detailing damages. The movers failed to wrap a lot of the furniture and I specifically asked them to wrap my antique coffee table, and the bed/dresser. They did with the dresser, didn't with the bed and I have never seen damage THIS BAD. They were going to carry my couch out unwrapped too, until I yelled at them and asked them to wrap it. Still, didn't realize the damage UNTIL I paid them - HUGE mistake because now they refuse to compensate me for the bed. Vinnie hung up on me twice when I tried to explain the problem. They lost my mirror along the way, took a door off a cabinet, scratched up my new floors and dented my entertainment center in addition to scratching the coffee table. Expensive, AND they took FOREVER. Citysearch won't let me paste a URL for you to see the damages, but they are REALLY susbtancial. Trust me -... Read more

    Copying what I'd written directly to Vinnie after a last-minute move: Vinnie, Just wanted to say thanks for the move to/from Catskills yesterday. You and your guys (Tek and I didn't get the other guy's name, unfortunately) were very responsive and efficient. If we need such services again, we'll definitely contact you.

    Advantage movers were stellar! They were the cheapest, provided FREE boxes prior to my move and showed up on time - early even. They called to confirm the day before the move and provided the certificate of insurance for my new building FREE. i called 5 other places before Advantage. These guys (3 of them with a 26 ft truck) cleared out my 1 bedroom apt in Pelham Bay in under 1 hour, drove to my new place in Manhattan and unloaded everything (elevator building) in under 3 hours. They were amazing and ultra professional. They explained all of the paperwork that I signed and let me walk through the truck after the move was completed to make sure nothing was left behind. They put together my furniture that had to be taken apart for the move and wrapped my paintings too. They placed each box/item in the correct room in the new apartment. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!

    Used them twice in the past very professional BUT this time Vinnie hung up on me TWICE trying to talk charges. Most rude and UNprofessional. I am at a loss but maybe Vinnie was having a bad day. Try somebody else and deal with grownups who don't hang up on you like a teenager would.

    Found this moving service on Craigslist, we all know how that can turn out sometimes. I read the reviews on here before calling, and was skeptical, because I always wonder if employees of the company write these reviews. Anyway, I'm white, female, and even though there's no research to back it, scared of men in white vans. Haha.. This moving experience was pleasant, The rate they quoted was a good price, and they did not add extra fees. They were very friendly, not creepy, and they moved me extremely quickly. They were on time. Overall, Very good experience, I would recommend them for big and small moves.

    I moved with Advantage in May and these guys were terrific. I was pleasantly suprised by the service I received because i have used other companies in the past and have always ran into problems (missing items, hidden charges). The gentleman I spoke to on the phone gave me an accurate price quote and the move ran smoothly without any damages. The movers worked very hard and were careful with my items and there were no hidden charges at the end of the bill. I would recommend them to anyone.

    The movers came on time and were very helpful. Vinnie, the person coordinating the move from the office, was always available via phone and email. There were no hidden charges to the flat rate quote they gave me. Great service!

    Thought I was in for a good moving experience but I was foolish to think so. These guys were untrustworthy, and did not deliver as promised. I received poor service from the supervisor on the phone when I called to complain. He was extremely unprofessional and beligerent. I would not recommend them at all.

    I can't say enough good things about these guys. I was feeling so stressed out! Packing and moving is really hard when you're pregnant, but they swept in and made the whole thing seem easy. They were so helpful and friendly they almost make you enjoy moving. (the free storage is a huge bonus too!) Big muscles and big hearts...what a winning combo!

    I called Advantage after being referred by a friend. From beginning to end, the gentleman on the phone was upfront about every aspect of the move. I was given an estimate which ended up to be right on the nose. The day of the move went very smoothly and the drivers were very professional. I wish other moves in my lifetime were this haslsle free. Highly Recomended!

    After calling several companies for estimates for our move from Brooklyn to New Jersey, we chose Advantage Movers not only for the good feedback we had read, but also because there was a simple 'pay by the hour' fee schedule that included no extra and/or hidden costs. We were very pleased with our choice. They not only arrived on time - but a little early. All four men were friendly, highly professional efficient and skilled at moving large pieces safely around tight corners. Also, my husband was happy that he and a neighbor were allowed to help, which made the entire move go ever faster, thus making it cheaper. Friends have recently asked us if we know a good mover, and we didn't hesitate to tell them about our good experience with Advantage Movers.

    I used Advantage Movers for an apartment move from the Upper East Side down to the Village. The drivers showed up on time, were polite and extremely careful with all of my items, especially the more delicate ones. They worked very hard through the entire move and were very professional. The move was finished within the estimated time that I was told. All in all, a very pleasant experience for something I was not looking forward to. I'd HIGHLY recommend Advantage Movers.

    The movers were absolutely amazing! My office contact Vinnie was always reachable for my questions, was honest about costs (very reasonable), and everything was simple and straightforward, unlike a lot of the movers I had called. They called me the day before to confirm the move, and the movers arrived early. The movers (Adrian, Martin, and Fernando) were extremely professional, fast, and courteous. They were so careful and efficient, even with some large and fragile pieces of furniture. All in all--a great job!!

    Outstanding! The best experience I've ever had moving. The team came to my apartment before 9:00AM and didn't finish until 7:45PM. These men were as gracious and professional- they moved my furniture and personal belongings as if they were their own, and they cam ein on budget! I would highly, highly recommend them.
