    I read the reviews on city search a week after my move. for me, this had been the most amazing experience with a moving company! i moved so many times and always got "screwed", this is the first time i was given a price and was promised service and got them all! someone here posted that they showed up with no uniform or company truck? who cares?, in my case they did, but all the times i moved before, i had movers coming with the company name on the truck and they couldnt care less about my goods or the price they tripled! i highly recommend flatrate moving, and thanks Kiko for the great service!!!!

    I completed my move earlier this week. Overall, the move went well, however there were a number of things that were done not in accordance with the contract. The movers showed up on time which was nice. However 1. They were not in uniform, 2. They were not driving a company vehicle, and 3. Upon arrival at my new apartment we had an issue. I know the contract states that for extended haul over 100 ft there is an additional charge. I had previously discussed this with my sales associate who said up to 150 ft is no problem. I had no problem paying for a legitimate distance over the limit, however, the head of my moving crew told me that since he had just rented the truck that morning he had not brought along any measuring tools. He then proceeded to "GUESS" at what the distance was, and how much he was going to charge me. First he said I would need to pay him $80 additional, then he told me that he thought it was really more than that, and I should pay him $100. He agreed to sett... Read more

    I am in the process of moving from Miami to New York. Although they are professional on the phone, they are claiming that I never confirmed the delivery date. I am in New York waiting for all of my possessions, and my stuff is still in Florida. They are not willing to compromise, and want to charge me an additional $475 to deliver my stuff on an exact date. They know they are a good mover and are not willing to work with their customers, since they think you won't go anywhere else

    My move was from coast to coast. It was from Florida to California. I look on the rates of this page and believe it since most of the reviews were 5 stars even though there were not much in between. I call the company and all. It was set up. Pick up was fine just that they charge 50% at least on pickup, it was okay. I did not check exact time but it was around the time they told. Then at arrival, we need to pay before checking if items were complete. We pay since we recognize some items. I was checking all the items and they end up missing one item and they call and it was still in Florida and he promise that he will bring it the next week. Never heard of him anymore. I call the salesman who was attentive when presenting the service but now he just forward me to dispatch. The guy at dispatch sound careless about the item and offer me the claim. I want my item not the claim and the base insurance with the item is $0.60 per pound which is nothing except if those were rocks. I had some im... Read more

    I moved to Kendall,FL about 2 years ago and used flatrate moving for the job. after 2 years in florida, i realized it is very difficult to find a business you can trust to provide you with the service promised. so when it came to hiring a moving company for the move from FL back to CT, there was no doubt i was going to call flatrate . i was very excited when i heard they have a florida location, it made everything easier and a rep was sent to my house to give me the quote.he was very detailed and provided me with everything in writing,gave me tips on packing and did everything he could to accomodate me with the timetable i had to meet. once all my goods were picked up and loaded on the truck, i left to the airport and my goods arrived within less than a week. I'm very happy with the service provided and the condition the items were delivered was perfect. once again, i was very impressed with flatrate moving. and believe me- its not easy to impress me...

    My realtor referred me to flat rate moving company once he found me a house. The move was last minute and my building had elevator time restriction that was very hard to meet. Flat rate sent me more people in order to finish the move on time and did the impossible! I was so impressed .The movers packed my kitchen and bedroom and did an amazing job! I was so happy that I now carry their business cards with me.

    Its been two weeks since I moved into my new condo and I?m taking the time now to thank the wonderful team and employees of flat rate moving who made this big step in my life so pleasant and easy. The forman, dajan and his team came in with a smile, explained every little thing they were going to do and once everything was completed they left the apartment clean and set up as if I lived there for a while. The whole process with flatrate was great, the salesperson was very informative and led me through providing inventory list making sure I don?t forget anything ,in order to guarantee me the price. I expected some additional charges, but there were NONE! I will definitely use this company again.

    I used flat rate to move me from Aventura,FL to Los Angeles,CA I loved the service,the price and the professionalism my move was very smooth and each and every person in flatrate that i had to deal with made me feel I was the most important client. I used citysearch when i screened the companies and it was worth it.

    We moved our 2 bedroom apartment from Coral Springs, FL to Jersey City, NJ 2 weeks ago (early June). Our contact person was Samuel Kipnis at the Miami office. He was very professional and courteous. They stuck by the rate they quoted, the extra costs were because I underestimated the number of linen boxes, and because in my Jersey City apartment, the total distance that the movers had to walk was more than 150 feet. Every extra 100 feet are charged at $0.15 per sqaure foot. They also "recommend" a tip totalling 10% of the move cost, 60% of which is given to the packing crew, and 40% to the unpacking crew. These were the only extra costs and they added about 15% to the overall cost. The 4-man crew who came to pack in Coral Springs were really good. The group leader, Danny Veritas, was professional and courteous. The crew was also courteous and careful in packing. All our stuff, including LCD TV, glass items and fragile items, came without any damage whatsoever. There were some really... Read more

    I don't recommend this company to anyone. I scheduled my move well in advance. Yes the price was great. But like they say... It was too good to be true. Flat rate said they would be at my home between 12pm and 2pm. I called them at 1pm and was told that the truck would be here between 2:30 and 3pm. By this time I was getting really worried because the new place that I was moving to only allows trucks in untill 4:30pm. I called them again to ask where the truck was and was told that he would not be able to make it. Supposedly, the crew was "stuck on an elevator on the 10th floor" while on another move. I explained my siituation and asked for another truck and crew and was told that there is no one else. I was not given any other solutions. I was very upset because I had half my stuff at one apartment and half at the other. I even took my bed apart to make it easier for the movers. With no sympathy from Flat Rate, I asked for my money back and although they said they would give it ba... Read more

    I moved last month in the same building, from one floor to another. I read the reviews on this site and called Flat Rate movers. They gave me an estimate on the phone after asking a few questions about what I had in the house. I signed the contract and that was it. On the day of the move, there was some kind of miscommunication within the company and they had me scheduled for the following day. I could not do it as I had taken off from work that day. The manager and part owner worked something up, pulled more guys from another job and was able to accomodate me on that same day. The guys showed up, after having planned to be done for that day. They were as pleasant as can be. They worked very hard, always with a smile and completed the job to the last item. They were exteremely efficient, and did an amazing job. I highly recommend these guys, they are the best. Extremely professional.

    i had to hire a moving company for my boss who was out of the country i was stressed because i was not moving my own furniture and i could only hope everything will go smooth. i was recommended by a co-worker and decided to hire flatrate because the salesperson was so informative and professional and the only thing i could find about flatrate was positive. i'm glad i did it, flatrate did an excellent job,packing and moving everything quickly and without any hassle.

    After being cancelled on by Lightning Movers at 6 PM the day before my move, I called Flat Rate on a wing and a prayer. Not only was Matt extremely sympathetic, but he was able to fit me in for the next day! The movers came in the AM, took their time to do everything right (wrapping, packing the truck) and everything arrived in one piece. And because of the flat rate pricing, there was no worry counting all the rolls of tape used or extra hours. I can't guarantee they will fit you in the day before, but I will forever use Flat Rate for my moving needs.

    this is a great company to use when you really care about your belongings and like to get a good service. Everyone at flatrate was helpful, calming and accommodating, and they proved to provide the same service they promise. The price quoted was affordable,movers came exactly as scheduled, I had restrictions in both buildings and they finished right on time. all my furnitures were carefully wrapped, they packed my tv's and my pictures and set everything up where i needed it. I'll be moving to California in three month and we'll use them again for sure.

    flatrate moving is by far the best moving company i dealt with. i move very often for work and i hate the whole process. my experience with flatrate moving was very different. i paid a little more than i usually do but i got the service i deserve. everyone in this company are super professional, the movers,the office staff,the dispatcher and the drivers. i recieve my goods in time as promised and in the same condition i sent them. I strongly recommend to use them. after all, you get what you pay for.

    I couldnt believe how fast and stress free this move was . my salesperson was very professional and easy going and delivered everything he promised . I had a complicated move with several pickups and drop-offs and FlatRate was able to complete everything on time. no doubt I'll use FlatRate again .

    The first time i saw the movers in action was when they moved the law office i worked for. we moved within brickell,and it was a smooth move.everything went well and the price remained the same. two month later I decided to use flatrate for my personal move and let me tell you,these guys are awesome,the only thing i was worried about was my plasma tv and a glass cabinet and they did an amazing job packing it. flatrate gives you one price and you dont have to fight on the day of the move for any hidden charges.the movers are polite,friendly and super professional.

    I used FlatRate when I moved from NYC to Miami and used them again last week.The movers were exceptionally courteous and efficient and did beyond to complete the job within the limited time frame the building allowed me to use the elevator. they do provide a real flatrate and stick to the price without all the tricks most movers use. I'll keep recommending this company to anyone i know.

    from my inital contact with this company it was clear to me that i'm not going to have anything like the moves i had before. this company worth every penny. They were on time,the team was professional and friendly,and the flatrate they promised was exactly what i paid. i will highly recpmmend this company to anyone who cares for his furniture and does not want to get screwed up on the day of the move.
