The movers from Sharp Van Lines arrived at my apartment between the time they promised (8-9 a.m., so 8:30 was perfect). The first thing I had to do was sign off on the order. As I had requested a third man, I understood the extra charges for him. One, mover Alex, was the supervisor but also helped with moving the cartons, oversized moving bags and pieces of furniture. They were doing two separate apartments (the other, my friend, who is also moving to same apartment) in the same vicinity. As I had done all the boxing and bagging, using my own cartons, all they needed to do was wrap pictures in blankets and secure them inside their truck. I didn't notice if they wrapped the small bookcases or credenza in any protection inside the truck; it certainly wasn't done prior to loading. Still, they arrived undamaged.

I had to follow them in my car, carrying their third mover as a passenger. As they had a truck which is not allowed on the Belt Parkway in Brooklyn, they had to take the longer, more time-consuming route of local streets. I have to admit, I was pretty sure the cops would get me as I sped through quite a few red lights to keep up with their 16 foot truck!

At the end of the unloading process - they placed the cartons and furniture where directed - came payment, in cash, for the extra manpower, tolls, and any extras, along with tips for all three. What I should have received at that point is a carbon copy of the bill. I did not. Later in the day, I had to inquire about the charges. Hearing that I was charged for packing materials, I objected since Sharp did not provide any. Alex apologized and is refunding that excess fee. I also objected initially to the toll charges but withdrew that complaint since I didn't know toll rates for trucks on the (2) bridges taken. Alex did send me a photo image of the toll charges. Commendably, he does respond quickly to any issues raised. However, going forward, he should make sure the customer gets a copy of the bill once the move is finished.

Would I/we use them again? Maybe. My friend will decide. All I know is that he won't be needing a 16 foot truck or an extra helper.

Sharp Van Lines were great movers and gracefully handled a bunch of minor hiccups getting into my storage unit -- with no complaints! They filled a 5x15 storage unit to the top with all my stuff!

These guys were very professional and clean. They were on time, helped with packing the boxes and finished entire job in a timely fashion. Highly recommend them.

The part of the job that was completed was done well. However, now I'm left with half (my upstairs) of an undone move so today I'm looking for another service to complete my move. When movers arrived we spent the first 45 mins on the phone with Hire a Helper and Van Lines trying to understand why the job was grossly miss quoted. As soon as showed them what needed to be moved I was told the job was too big for 2 guys and they needed double the time and 2-3 more guys which of course would more than double the price! When I connected with Hire a Helper to explain I was literally on hold for 50 minutes and no resolution but told it's up to the movers to decide what's needed for the job etc. I have moved more than few times and this was the worst. The guys did moved my entire downstairs perfectly but I would never use either service again.

Mover's response:
Hi, I am sorry for this issue. The move started at 10:15am and finished at 2:15pm. The movers worked a total of 4 hours which the customer agreed to and paid to Hire A helper. The 4 hours was completed and we had to finish the job for the customer, we asked her if she wanted to pay more and she did NOT agree to pay a pro-rated rate for every 15 minutes of the hourly rate. The customer refused to pay for any additional time. We also provided the customer with some free boxes and free packing as well. I am sorry but this is nothing that my company should be at fault for.
Thank You
Alex
