If I ever move again, I know who I'm gonna call. Ori van lines is the BEST moving company I have ever used.
When you call to set your appt, they are professional, efficient and thorough. They don't mind fielding your questions and will be honest with you about their scheduling. I found out that you can save money if you move on a weekday, as opposed to a weekend. Their weekends fill up fast, too.
When you make your appt, you're walked through the process. What they book for you depends on how much stuff you're moving and the layout of your current residence versus your new one. For example: 3 flights of stairs means higher cost, due to booking an extra set of hands.
When you make your appt, you're given an hour time frame in which to expect them at your place. Maybe it's 8 or 9. Either way, this is the most punctual moving company I've ever used.
A couple days before your move, you get a reminder call. The day of your move, you get another call from the actual "moving men" to let you know they're on their way over to you. The 2nd time I moved, they were even early - by about 1/2 hour.
The guys that show up to help are GREAT: friendly, polite, hard-working, fast and even lighthearted. Who knew? On the plus side: Not creepy whatsoever. So ladies, no worries when you got to move by yourself, like I did.
Honestly, if you need to move, give these guys a call. I've moved over a dozen times in my life, and I can vouch that these guys are the real deal. They even take great care of your personal items - wrapping things in blankets and/or bubble wrap. I was very impressed!
