   Definitely recommend!

   From my initial communication to the ultimate delivery, everything happened professionally. Sabrina was very professional and always quick to respond to emails or phone calls. The movers handled all of our stuff with the utmost care. I definitely recommend these movers! .

   Great experience.

   The price was phenominal and the movers were on time and extremely helpful and courteous. The 4 gentlemen came in and worked fast and hard. My wife was hesitant to hire movers because she thought we could do it and thankfully I convinced her and she said once they got moving "this definitely was a smart move and worth every penny." She stayed and just pointed what to go and the. When they got to our destination it was double time speed and they finished right on time. I can't say enough about how great the crew was. I HIGHLY recommend these guys for a move.

   You get what you pay for.… They gave a good price, but in the end with the damage they did, it will cost you more. They gave us an arrival time of between 7 AM and 8 AM and then called at 5:30 in the morning to say they would be there by 6:30 AM. Then while packing, they said they would have to charge a $45 Crate fee for a mirror, then wrapped the mirror in cardboard scraps, which protected it, but should not have been any additional cost. It was far from a crate. Then, when they arrived at the second house, they started to unload and immediately put a ding in one wall, and marks on the other… When I pointed it out, they asked for payment and refused to unload anymore until I paid. The supervisor on the job site called the owner of the company who started an argument on the phone with me which turned into a shouting match and continue to refuse to unload the truck unless they were paid first. Ultimately I paid them because that is how they have it written in their contract, so beware of that… After receiving the payment, they continued to unload the truck and put a large dent in another wall and scratched my banister on the stairs. The dings in the wall will require spackle and a repaint to repair… I would recommend you pay a little bit more and hire a professional company. This crew was obviously made up of laborers, and not skilled moving people.

   Thieves!

   In short they stole my money! They quoted me $780 for 3 hrs. The appointment was at 4 PM we finished before 7:44 PM. The had me sign a bunch of paperwork before we started. All lines were blank, they filled them out later when we were moving stuff. They wrote “start at 3 PM, finish at 9 something PM” and gave me a copy that I put in my pocket right away (because we were busy moving stuff and didn't think anything of it). There was nothing to sign at the end of moving. I left a few minutes after we finished. I saw their vehicle leave their parking spot and made a turn. I checked my credit card a few days later, I charged me over $1400! I called them they said it took 6 hrs to complete the job. I said no it was from 4 to 7:44. Then they looked into it, they confirmed that the appointment was at 4 PM, but their vehicle left at 8:11 PM (they had a tracker in the vehicle). So, Danny refunded me about $198 after taking out a bunch of additional fees. According to their tracker they actually stayed (in the area?) until 8:11 and charged me according to their tracker, which is 4 hrs and a half (they charge an increment of half an hr after the first 3 hrs) . Thank God they didn't decide to stay until midnight or morning! They charged me half an hour extra, that's almost $100. Writing reviews is a waste of time, the time that I don't really have, but I just got robbed so I have to share my experience with Flat Fee Moving.

   Broke everything!

   DO NOt USE them! They don’t care about making their customers happy! They broke wine glasses, China plates, glass stuff for my bathroom! They can not handle moves from even an apt! The movers are very rude and we’re throwing our boxes around! They are rude when you ask questions! Spend more money and find a better company!

   Would give 0 if I could.

   Horrible customer service. Very unprofessional. DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY! You will regret it. Make sure to read contracts they have hidden things and will charge you.

   Scam artists.

   After reading all those good reviews I called them to give them a try - well everything was not perfect like those reviews - one of the movers did not speak english at all and it was very hard to communicate with him - the other mover was very nice and polite but was not professional on the scene , I will not use them again , this is not the best move I had.be aware.

   Dishonest and unprofessional company.

   If I could give this company 0 stars I would. This is the most unprofessional and dishonest company that I have ever delt with. I felt like they did absolutely nothing to make the customer happy and leave with a positive experience. Their estimate is a completely random number and you will be paying at least $200 more than the price they give you. For a company called flat fee company, get ready for many hidden costs like $3 a roll of tape (they will use at least 15 rolls) and 3% for using credit card, ad well as tolls, gas and much more. The movers were very rude and when asked to move a couch down 6 flights, one of them actually started to complain and threatened me that he would take 40 minutes to walk it down. A mover complaining about moving? The manager/owner was extremely rude after trying to work it out after they took 2 hours over the expected time from the estimate. They told me that if I wasn't going to pay for the extra two hours now (before unloading the truck) I would have to call the police to get my furniture back! This is not okay. I was seconds away from calling the police. Also they left my couch sitting on my sidewalk as well just because the time was up and they had to go to their next job. This experience was the biggest headache, and moving is stressful enough. Stay away from this company!! They are dishonest and very rude and you will be very upset to find out your "flat fee" move will cost you way more than you thought. They pride themselves on "integrity", don't expect to see any of that with these movers.

   Worst experience ever!

   The gentleman who gave us the quote explained how this is a trustworthy company and spoke poorly of other companies. They claimed to not have any hidden fees. Unfortunately, that's not true. Their quote did not include all the fees they intended to charge. Once they picked up our stuff the quote changed. We were charged for two separate moves. They insisted on wrapping our already tapped and boxed items and charged us almost $4 per tape roll. They easily used at least a dozen rolls. Then they charged a 3% fee for using a credit card. The foreman assigned was condescending to me. When we called to speak to the manager it was of no help. He was not only rude, but slowed down his speech as if we did not have the mental capacity to understand him. We ended up paying close to a $1000 for a move for only one small bedroom without TV/Computer screen or any other fragile item. It was horrendous. I will never go with this company again and strongly recommend for people to do their research before you believe their company lie, ahem..slogan "Movers with integrity". Smh.

    Dishonest Movers.

    As a previous reviewer stated, Flat Fee Moving, Elmwood Park, was dishonest from the start. I was told by the salesperson that by purchasing packing services with them, I would save on buying packing supplies - the company would provide all the boxes and tape needed for the move. That was a lie. I ended up paying their rates for the supplies. I was notified of the additional charges on the day of the move (I had already relocated from NJ and was in NV when I received the call) and had no alternative but to agree to pay the additional charges. I was also told that the moving truck could not fit in the alley behind the UHaul facility, where my storage unit was located (see photos of alley), and more charges would incur upon delivery. I refused to pay this company any more money. As a result, my things were dropped off on a public street downtown and I had to rent a UHaul truck and hire movers to transport my things from the street to my storage unit. In addition, I had asked the company to send me an invoice for the move multiply times, in which their response was, that they told me the amount over the phone. I would stay clear of this company. They are rude, unprofessional and will end up charging you a lot more than what was originally quoted (in my case, almost $1,000 More).
