Somewhere over the years I accumulated a lot of stuff. I don't know where and I don't know how... but, it happened. The last time I moved myself it was into a fourth floor walk-up in Chinatown. I had the aid of my trusty roommate (at the time) and my ex-boyfriend. After this experience I vowed to myself and to them that I would never, ever, ever move myself again... that I would hire some professionals to haul my big-azz elliptical trainer up and/or down four flights of stairs.
This past June I decided that I was going to move. It was at this time - with only two weeks to plan - that I contacted ORI VAN LINES to ask them about a quote. They were very helpful in answering all my questions. They determined the size storage locker I'd need based on my guesstimation of how much furniture I have (enough to fill a studio apartment) and quoted me a very reasonable rate for the moving portion of the task.
On the Thursday before my move I made the foolish error of going to a party (supposedly to tell everyone goodbye for the summer, what actually happened was that I drank my weight in vodka and stumbled home in the wee-wee hours of the morning with packing still to accomplish.)
ORI (sadly for me) showed up right on schedule at 7am to move my stuff as I was franticly packing the last of my boxes. The three adorable boys didn't even make fun of me as I incoherently muttered at them and threw stuff into boxes while I tried to direct them what to take and what not to take. The three of them worked very hard and wouldn't even stop for a sip of water when I offered it to them. They were quite careful with my belongings and accomplished the task of moving my shiznit into storage in record time.
Today they brought me my stuff out of storage (I'm back beeotches, recognize!) Nothing was damaged or broken. And, they moved it all in, even going as far as to set up my bed for me and help get the whoist thingie-ma-bob on my elliptical unstuck and working properly.
This is the first time I've ever used a moving service; but, should I have the need to move again I will absolutely use Ori Van Lines. And, in fact I would go so far as to recommend them strongly to anyone who is in need of moving or storage services.
