Sterling Movers & Storage

Let me start by saying that: 1) I generally don't trust movers bc I've had bad experiences in the past, and 2) my fiancee and I were each moving out of our respective apts into a brownstone (w/ a lot of stairs) outside of the city -- needless to say this had all the makings for a potentially disastrous move. \r \r I spoke to Michael on the phone and gave him the breakdown. I found him to be very specific in his questions, and while not chatty friendly, he was straight-forward and knowledgable. Definitely no BS like some of the other places I called. I had called a couple of other places first and Sterling's price was definitely the best, which again made me worry as to why. \r \r On the day of the move, there was a ton of stuff for these guys to pack and move -- two apts' worth -- but these guys showed up when they said they would, and came with all the necessary men and equipment. They took apart some of the heavy furniture (which I didnt know you could do) and put everything back together impeccably. I give credit where credit is due - and I've got to say these guys worked their asses off. It could've been a hellish move, but thankfully it went pretty easy overall. I'm definitely recommending them to my friends and using them again (altho hopefully I won't need to any time soon). Pros: Honest pricing, fast & professional workers Cons: That I didn't use them the other times I moved. more

I was referred to Sterling Moving by my broker. The crew went above and beyond to make this my easiest move to date. We cannot thank them enough for making this experience so pleasant. We were very impressed with their level of skill from start to finish! Pros: very knowledgeable more

I have moved 4 times in the last 5 years and I haven?t really been happy with the companies that I have used previously for many different reasons. This time I used Sterling Moving, and was very happy with the personalized service that I got, as well as the proficient and experienced movers that did the actual move. I will not be moving for some time but will recommend Sterling to all. Pros: Great service more

Sterling was not only prompt, professional and reasonably priced, they were exceptionally neat and friendly in what turned out to be a complicated move. These guys really know their business. (And I couldn't believe how fast they were!) Great attitude and great service. If I ever have to move again (God forbid) I'd call Sterling first thing. more

I?ve had a number of horrific moving experiences, trying to take the so-called ?cheaper? way out by doing it myself (always thought only rich people could afford movers!). What an awful idea! With all of the things that I?ve lost or broken, it was in NO WAY cheaper! I decided to go with professionals to save myself the headache.\r \r Sterling was a dream come true! Not only were they priced very reasonably, but the moving men listened to what I wanted and took great care of all of my items. Every single thing arrived on time and in one piece! I don?t think I could ever move again without them! more

I choose Sterling movers for my move from the Upper West Side to Park Slope and can not sing their praise?s enough. They were upfront with their price and gave me the flat rate that I asked for. Everybody that I dealt with was professional, polite and friendly from the salesperson to the movers and the move went off with out a hitch, nothing got broken. Needless to say, I thank you guys. Pros: Professional and friendly. Cons: None. more

I don't normally write these things but I had to in this case because I was so impressed with these guys. I've used several movers in the past & this was the first time that everything went off without any problems - I couldn't believe it. I shopped around and got quotes from several different companies and these guys came in the lowest, so I was a little wary that something would go wrong & they'd be too good to be true. But unbelievably, they actually showed up on time, they packed everything up quickly & well (nothing was broken!) and they moved everything out & into my new place without a hitch. I'd DEFINITELY recommend them & use them again. Pros: Fair price, everything done on time, no damage to my stuff Cons: That I didn't use them sooner! more

Like most NYers, I've moved several times -- in my case, four times. This last time I didn't want to bother packing everything myself so I contacted several moving companies to get estimates. Not only was Sterling the lowest estimate, but surprisingly, they turned out to be the best experience I ever had. They showed up on time, they packed everything safely and professionally, and moved the whole process along quickly. I've had a couple of bad experiences with movers where they ended up charging extra at the end of the job. But not Sterling -- they actually charged fairly! Sterling lived up to their name & made the move a smooth experience. I'm recommending them to all of my friends. Pros: Efficient, professional, timely & good price more

Since I move so frequently, I have used a lot of moving companies. Unfortunately this year, I needed to move on really short notice, which was enormously stressful, but the Sterling movers were extremely professional and handled my last minute move with the most experience of any of the other moving companies I have ever used. They came on time and were very efficient especially considering I needed so many things packed since I was completely unprepared to move. This is the first time that I am 100% satisfied with my moving experience. I would recommend Sterling Moving to anyone moving.\r \r Pros: Both experienced and professional, plus friendly and helpful more
