I was extremely nervous when I first thought about moving to another state. I was given so many different quotes on different weights, and I didn't know which one I should pick. Only a couple of companies that contacted me offered me an "In Home Estimate." Three companies can to my house, one being Nick from Best Price Moving &Storage and Robert from Allied Van Lines. They both came up with different weights, but their prices were close. I chose to go with Best Price Moving because they gave me a cheaper price, and Nick was the only person who went over packing costs, and also told me where I can get supplies cheaper to save me about $200 dollars that other companies wanted to change me! I was relieved, but then again I was nervous because I didn't want to go over my weight. Nick told me, "You will only pay for the weight you have. If your weight is lower, your final balance will be less. If it goes higher it would be adjust to the additive rate." I noticed Nick didn't put in an addictive rate, and I didn't want to say something because I didn't want to pay anymore that what I have to. They movers came and it was a smooth four hours of them packing and loading. I followed their truck to Pulaski and Armitage to their warehouse. I was greeted by the owner, the customer service manager Karen, and Nick. I watched them weight my stuff, and my weight went over 400 pounds. I couldn't believe that so they reweighed it, and yes I did go over my weight. I was thinking maybe there was going to be a spike in the final balance, but to my surprise it wasn't that bad. Nick didn't charge me an additive rate. I received my belongings in 7 days and I was very satisfied with my move. Not once did I receive any phone calls or email about any delays. I actually received a phone call that they could deliver 2 days early!
Pros: On time, Professional, Cautious with my belongings
Cons: Not all of the movers spoke English
