i moved from manhattan to philadelphia on august 4, and i hired broad st movers to do the job. these guys were fantastic- they showed up right on time and called me to tell me they were on their way, as requested. once they arrived, we had some problems parking the van on third ave but they were extremely easy-going and were not phased. i lived in a very small 1BR and these guys were done moving the stuff within 1.5hrs. their method of loading the items onto the van is much faster than that of other moving companies- who wrap each piece of furniture individually in cloth. broad st takes everything to the truck and wraps it all when its loaded- which is much faster. none of my furniture was damaged. when these guys get paid by the hour, its nice that they work so quickly. moving everything into my apartment in philly went extremely smoothly. we started moving at 10 30am and i was fully loaded in philly by 3pm. i was charged very fairly, and the guys (whose names i forget) were generous when billing my hours (they could have charged me for more hours without me objecting). mark and his team is extremely professional and i highly recommend them for any move!
