Fast and friendly - they won best in Philly for a reason! “ Old City movers far exceeded my expectation from my first my first call to schedule the move to the moment that they left my house. The day of the move, they showed up right on time and wasted not one minute - they packed the truck and headed out. I let them know that I would be right behind them...well, in the meantime, my cat escaped so I was frantically trying to get her back in her carrier then into the car. That took 30 minutes. Instead of just waiting the 30 minutes for me to arrive and let them in - they again wasted no time. By the time I got there, they had the truck unloaded and everything right outside the door waiting to go. Oh, and did I mention that I live on one of those really convenient Philadelphia streets that isn't wide enough to get the truck down so they had to park at the corner and walk everything 1/2 a block to the door? Still, they were completely unphased and so friendly! All in all it took them only 2.5 hours!! It was cheaper than renting a UHaul and moving myself!! These guys seriously know what they are doing. Moving is so stressful - Old City movers can reduced some of that stress. ”
Great moving experience - three times now “ Between my fiance's moves and my own, we've had three good experiences with Old City. Our last move with a different company was a complete nightmare, and we let them go and hired Old City to finish the job, and we'll use them for sure for our next move. These guys know what they're doing. They're very careful with the furniture and carefully reassemble anything they have to take apart. They've been impeccably prompt for all our moves. They're good time managers and organized and efficient in the way they move things, and the rates are very fair. ”
Excellent movers “ I've used these movers twice already and they always come on point with their price quote or below what they estimated. their price includes everything - gas, truck, dollies, tarps, etc. in a flat hourly rate they give you pending how much stuff you own. they're so quick and efficient, but still really careful with your belongings in taking the time to wrap items with tarps, etc as well as arranging things in the truck securely and in your new home to your specifications. The first time i used them last summer i was so pleased with them i recommended them to a coworker, classmate, and two friends who all raved about how they couldn't believe how great they all were and have since recommended them to their friends as well. unlike a few other moving companies who overcharge, are not careful with your belongings, and some that actually steal (my sister came across this), old city movers have really honest and nice movers who are just good at what they do. my only recommendation to people who want to use them is to book them more than a month in advance if possible because they book up quickly. ”
Fast, Careful, and Friendly “ Old City Movers moved my husband and I from Philadelphia to New York last week. They showed up on time, loaded and unloaded quickly and carefully, and were very friendly. I would absolutely use them again! ”
Excellent moving experience “ It was an overall great moving experience. They showed up 15 minutes early. They had everything transported from my apt to the storage facility within 2 hours. They were very friendly and personable. They operated quickly and efficiently. They made the whole moving experience very easy! ”
Professional and Quick! “ I chose Old City Movers because they were voted Best in Philly and I soon discovered why. The movers arrived on time. They got right to work, breaking down my furniture and loading it on the truck. In about two hours they had hauled all my furniture, including a large wardrobe to my new 3rd floor walk-up without so much as a ding or a scratch to anything. In addition, I was moving within the city and liked that this company was local; not some business from the burbs or So. Jersey who'd get lost looking for my building or get confused about the city streets. Oh, and the other positive experience- other companies had quoted me flat rates and estimates that were twice as much as this company ended up charging me for the two hour move. So, if you are moving within the city, or anywhere else, I highly recommend this team of movers. ”
Best move I've ever had “ Registered on Citysearch just to praise these guys. Seriously the best movers I've ever worked with... and this is coming from someone who has moved almost once a year for the past 10 years. They cleared out our apartment in 90 minutes... no small feat considering the amount of junk we have. We were in our new house 2 hours later... the truck completely unloaded, including a monster armoire that made it into our upstairs bedroom unscathed. Cannot recommend them enough. Extremely reasonable rates, really friendly dudes, and very fast. ”
Terrible experience and customer service from Bill who hates the Eagles. “ So I called Bill, the main supervisor, and explained that I wanted to move from my apartment to another one a block a way. We scheduled a time (I made a joke that there was an Eagles game on and I would prefer a better time) which he said was suspicious. After discussing pricing, he said that his "mental alarm bell was going off" and he was worried I wouldn't be there for the scheduled move and that I should find someone else. Bill then abruptly hung up. When I called back to see what the hell had happened, he said he had made a mistake in scheduling and that Old City movers wouldn't be available at that time slot or any of the other time slots he had quoted me for because of "an error." Effectively brushing me off. To give you some background, I'm a Penn student who was trying to move within University City. What in the world Bill was being uptight about I'll never know. But there are a lot of better/cheaper movers available out here and you shouldn't give any of your money to people like that. ”
Old City Movers “ I searched the web for a moving company to move my family from one area of the city to another. I really liked the reviews for Old City movers. When I called to set up the appointment, the gentlemen was friendly, answered all my questions and when I hung up the phone I felt a sense of relief knowing that nothing would be broken or stolen. On the day of the move they arrived promptly at 8:00 a.m. explained everything to my husband and I and got right to work. They were friendly, courteous, efficient, pleasant to our children and were finished moving a three bedroom, 2.5 bath home before noon. I was amazed at the care they took of our furniture, nothing broken or damaged, they even suggested a way to transport some of the more fragile items we were stumped as how to pack! The rates were fantastic! The best money I ever spent not to mention the sense of relief from not having to do this ourselves. I would highly recommend them and when I move again I'm certainly calling Old City Movers! Thanks guys! ”
Best Possible Moving Experience “ I hired Old City Movers to get me out of my apartment after me and my partner broke up. They were efficient and professional and took the utmost care to make sure that none of my stuff was damaged. They took apart all of my Ikea furniture and put it right back together like it never happened - thats a feat unto itself. It took them less than two hours to get me out of my old place and into my new place - all at a super reasonable price. They are professional and courteous and really know what they are doing. They get my highest recommendation. ”
