| - Short version: The movers we used today were very professional & efficient. We would recommend them & would use them again.
Long version: It all started with an email to umbrellamovers@gmail.com for a price quote. I received an immediate response from Corrine based on my description of our household goods. Here is part of her email:
"We would suggest a 3 man crew and estimate 3-5 hours. Our rates with our truck is $165/hr for 3 men, with a 2-hr minimum. Thereafter, we bill in 15-min increments. We also have a one-time Travel & Equipment fee of $55, which covers travel time to your door, dollies, shrink wrap, rope, and furniture pads."
Corrine followed up with a phone call and a request for an inventory list and from/to addresses. After receiving my exact inventory list, she lowered the estimated time that the crew would need to 2-3 hours.
We packed everything up ourselves. Our friendly & respectful crew (Jay, Zeno, & Anthony) loaded & unloaded within 2 hours. Very quick & efficient. Zero damage to our houses. Zero damage to our things.
Granted - we are a military family and don't own that much stuff. It's enough to fill a 3 bedroom house to give you an idea. No appliances. But we had commercial grade treadmill & elliptical machine.
With our 10% military discount, our grand total came to $358. Not bad at all considering it would have taken us so much longer to do it on our own.
Give them a call or send them an email if you need movers!
