Milk the hourly rate “ September 09 move They price was okay, but more than I wanted to pay (and I booked them last minute, so I didn't have much of a choice). Why did it take 5 guys to move a single womans apartment 3 miles 6.5 hrs? I was being charged an hourly rate and boy do they milk that. I had to run an errand and my roommates said that they were bringing up one couch cushion at a time and were hanging around joking and laughing among themselves. I really feel I was taken advantage of. ”
THESE PEOPLE BELONG IN PRISON, OR BACK IN PRISON “ After being quoted a price over the phone by Ben and leaving a deposit I immediately began noticing red flags with these crooks. First, my non refundable deposit was not run once, but twice, and when I called their office to inform them of this I was treated as though I had made some sort of mistake, zero marks for people skills. I then assured them of their error ( i am a CPA ) and when I asked to be refunded I was met with a haggling of sorts, i.e, "well, we're gonna be there in a few days anyway, why don't we just credit it towards your final bill." sort of line. Again, very unfriendly, uneducated sounding office person with some airy welshman with an accent acting as the manager. I was stressed out as was and just didn't have the energy to argue. During this period NICKS was supposed to drop me some supplies so that I could prep my house for the move, I asked for Pads, wrapping paper, some bubble wrap, tape and various boxes. All of which I was encouraged to get from them by them, and all of which I was assured would arrive at the latest, 5 days before my move, all of which turned out to be LIES. Nothing showed up, I called, I called I called and was met with hostility from two of the office people and some very lame excuses from the rummy welsh manager, ( I know we are in a recession, but that doesn't explain why my moving supplies aren't in my home 2 days before my move.) needless to say, they never arrived. So, the day of my move, My four movers was reduced to 2 movers, (some how my rate only went down 30 bucks though) one spoke no english and clearly had no prior knowledge of moving, he broke almost everything he touched, the other, I am fairly certain was using coke in my bathroom and threw up several times during my move, so, after all my things get trashed, lost and most certainly pillaged, i get my bill. i wasn't surprised to see i wasn't credited for my double deposit, and was actually billed for the supplies i never got. AMAZING! I contested the bill, was met with more hostility by my druggie mover, ( was also strong armed for a tip and told to "go to an ATM I have no doubt my mover was using druugs") and spent 2 hours waiting to speak with someone who could "adjust" my balance. In the end, what was supposed to be a 5 hour venture from start to finished turned into a 5 day odyssey complete with liars junkies, and a thieef. Most of my items were damaged, some lost or stolen, and my original 700 dollar move ended up costing me an estimated 2500 plus, ( that includes damages, and time spent haggeling with these crooks. Dave, Eric, Ben, Richie and Henrey you ought to be asshamed. ”
This company rocks! “ Henry and Pedro were OUTSTANDING. It was a hot day in August and they had many many stairs to climb, but they did it! They arrived EARLY (how often does THAT happen?!?) and were 100% courteous and communicative not only with me but with each other. They wrapped everything up efficiently and handled it all with extreme care, and even offered tips about unpacking, maintenance, and future furniture purchases! I couldn't recommend them enough. They made a challenging process so much better. Thanks guys! ”
Excellent Job “ Rich, Jeff and Ross moved a lot of furniture to three separate locations and none of them had easy staircases to navigate. Everything went quick, smooth and all of our furniture and boxes arrived in the same condition as when we left. ”
Thank god I hired the right moving company “ I just moved from Central sq. in Cambridge to Davis Sq. in Somerville. Nick's sent me two great movers, Bob and Jeff they cleared out my one bedroom apartment in less than an hour from the second floor! In the end these guys were polite, careful, and cheaper than they estimated over the phone. I have heard some horror stories about friends moving experiences, but now I will just tell them to use Nick's and they will have no worries! ”
Cheap AND friendly “ We have used these guys twice now and have had a good experience both times. I got a quote from gentle giant and Nicks were way cheaper. James and Jon made my move look so easy even though we moved to a third floor. Nothing was too much trouble for them. I would recommend them to anybody. ”

Best movers I ever had ! “ Thank you so much to Richie, Jon and Jeff ! I called them last minute as I realized i could not move my stuff on my own. Their office took my info and these guys were at my doorstep two hours later. It was freezing that day but these guys just laughed it off and continued to climb up and down my third-floor staircase as if it were fun to them. They put everything together for me at the new place, and the whole thing was done in three hours. I couldn't tip them much so I thought id mention them by name. It was a great experience. I urge folks who are moving to ask for these guys ! ”

Over Priced. Poor service. Worst moving company ever. “ Horrible service. Way over priced. In 2003 my wife and I hired this company to help us move into a second level of a two family house. My wife and I helped and we moved most (90%) of the small boxes ourselves. The two movers slowly moved a medium sized couch for two hours in which they broke a banister in the process. In the end I had to show them which way they should bring the couch in. They admitted to breaking the banister and then my landlord had to chase them down to have it repaired (threatened small claims suit). They charged me $700 total for 4 hours of work....which half was spent trying to wedge a couch up the wrong way. The additional money they charged (initial quote was $200) was for large objects..... that I didn't think warranted the extra fee. In the end... horrible service... horrible price. Avoid this company at all cost.... ”
