    3rd family move.

    My son was working at Hoffstra University and West Georgia University, made him an offer he could not refuse. He used Tommy 5 years ago and everything worked out well on his move to Ga. My daughter used Tommy also, on her move to N. C. to teach, a few years before. My wife & I retired and moved to Georgia, to be near our kids & grand kids, also to be in the land of little or no tax. Our pickup went great, Rich the packer did such a great job, not one thing he packed was broken. Joe, the guy who was in truck, put everything together to use every inch of space. Now the down side, we were buying a house for cash in Cobb County Ga. and the title company could not get their act together. We were to close on Thurs. and our truck was arriving Friday morning. Because of the Title Company, we didn't close until 5PM Friday! I called Tommy and told him, we didn't close & I'm not sure if we will close Friday or Monday. He was great, he had the truck by pass us and do a drop in eastern Fla., then one in Western Fla. before coming up to us. The driver Shawn & Rich worked non stop, everything was put in the correct room, be it the 1st or 2nd floor. They were so great, first I gave them both a $50.00 tip, but after they carried our dressers up to our bedroom, my wife had me give them both, another $50.00. Use Tommy, he is safe and is lower in cost then the big guys. Tommy is good, but who makes this the company to use, is, his guys, Shawn, Rich & Joe.

    New York to Florida move.

    I checked and called many moving companies before deciding on Maher Van Lines , and I DEFINATELY made the correct decision. Not only were they professional , but honest and took great care of my move. They handled everything with the upmost care and concern and I would HIGHLY recommend them to anyone making a move. The rate was extremely competitive and it was what they quoted no surprises . When you are ready to move call Maher , you wll not be disappointed .

    My recent move on Jan 12th 2013 from Lake Ronkonkoma NY to Clermont Fl.

    Hi Tommy,  I just wanted to let you know what a great job you, Rich and Whitey did when my car and household items were moved from Lake Ronkonkoma NY to Clermont Florida. Everything arrived safely at the storage facility in Clermont FL.  I will highly recommend your moving company to anyone who is looking for a great, dependable mover. And your price for the move was the best too!  Thanks again!!Jo Ann Guagliardo.

    Maher Van Lines.

    Maher Van Lines is the most competent, economical professional firm ever used in my 40 year career which includes moves to three countries and seven states..highly reccommend. Their estimate was on target. They arrived on time and packed all house hold goods in good fashion. On moving day they loaded with great skill and caution. Move included piano and all house hold goods. The work crew was nice and communicated well. Once loaded we exchanged information regarding weight  and confirmed travel time and time of arrival.   Day before arrival they contacted me in advance and arrived on time. They unloaded load and installed all furniture in each room and assembled where appropiate. The local crew was helpful regarding local community issues and the driver ie crew chief was the same person at both ends.   The Owner Mr. Maher is honest, professional.,answred all questions and even 4 months later was helpful in providing mke data on moving my car to Florida..Moving can be a stressful experience Maher Van Lines  is the answer and cost effective solution..do.

    Highly recommend.

    I had an excellent experience from beginning to end.  Everyone I dealt with in the company was courteous, honest and professional. Price came in lower than expected. I would have no qualms about using this company again. Thanks for a great job. .

    New York to Florida.

    I moved from New york to Jacksonville Florida. The guys that moved me and drove the trucks were the best movers you can find.The only con was it took a long time to find out when the truck was to be in Florida, other then that you can not go wrong with this company.

    Maher Van Lines.

    We moved from LI NY on Feb. 4th to Homosassa, FL. Maher Van Lines of Islip LI NY 11751, came to our home exactly when they said they would. They were courteous and careful with our furniture. Tommy was helpful with our packing tips. He also called us when they would be arriving and came to deliver exactly on time. Everything was put in it's place and anything that had to be put together, was carefully done. I would recommend Maher Van lines to anyone. I have heard horror stories, but this Company was very honest. Ray and Jeannene Petrizzi.
