The men were really great! they showed up on time, were very careful and eficient at carrying all the boxes. They loaded the unit amazingly. I will call this company and hope to get the same men for them to unload the unit when we are done with the home repair.

1. Hire-a-Helper charged me $390 for 2 men for 3 hours. In addition, I paid the company they hired for me an additional $1152 for the remaining 7 hours for 3 men (from Q's Moving). WHAT A RIP OFF! I GOT CHARGED BY BOTH HIRE A HELPER AND Q'S MOVING FOR ONE OF THE HOURS.

This was dealt with when the company credited my card $342 after my complaint. They just can't do basic math?

2. The moving men from Q's Moving BROKE my Entertainment Unit! The shelves were cracked down the corners on one side so they clearly did not wrap the shelves. Pieces of the unit were littered in the hallway after they left so they clearly did not carry the pieces carefully. The shelves crashed down on my television while I was putting on the XBox, Wii and Cable boxes - as was usual at my old home. I had to go out and buy a new unit. THANK GOODNESS my television, Wii and cable box still work. I have to check the XBox next.

They complained when I suggested the tip amount and guilted me into going to the ATM (one of them actually walked with me to the ATM!) to double the tips to $40 each.

I had a lot of stuff to move and the men did the job but I seriously have had better moving experiences in NYC and I've lived here all my life.

WHAT A RIP OFF! I am going to file a complaint and check on the insurance. If nothing happens then I have to go to the Better Business Bureau and file a complaint.

Mover's response:
YOU BE THE JUDGE! customer requested 2 men3hrs because of the 5 flight walkup and the fact she had my men packing hanging pictures 3 men worked for 11.5 hrs. The next day she requested a credit for lunch time and a 80 ikea tv stand. I as always want to make all my customers happy so i gave her a generous credit for 342 , We all thought this matter was resolved but 20 days later she accused us of theft,supposedly we stole her jewelry and coins again via email she confirmed that they where found.

These guys did a very good job, they were fast and efficient. These guys showed up on time and were very prepared for the job. I would recommend to anyone I knew who needed movers, and I would use them again in the future!

Hire-a-helper and Q's moving company were terrific. I phoned a week prior to the move and they worked closely with me until everything was delivered and in its place. My Manhattan office building required all sorts of documentation w/regards to certificates of insurance and workman's comp, etc to use their freight elevators. Q's moving company responded instantly to every frantic email request I made and even contacted my building management directly to expedite things. The movers were cautious with my belongings, shrink-wrapping couches on the spot, and reinforced some of the heavier boxes. They had extra supplies, boxes, tape, etc on the truck. They worked speedily to make sure we a completed the job on time. I highly recommend both companies and plan to use them again.

The WORST move of my life - and I have moved from CA to London to NY and have lived in NYC at 3 different locations for past 11yrs. The WORST move with Qs! Made leaving the city a horrible memory - even more so. Was an epic nightmare. I loaded the elevator 7 times by myself, carried things downstairs & still had to make 4 trips with my car because they did not pack everything - despite the truck having room.

To start, they were 4 hours late because the 2 movers came from Long Island and they had car trouble. However, I was told by John the owner the reason they drove was because they needed to bring the dollies. Which they did NOT. During this 4hrs I was pleading with John to send me different movers because I needed to meet CT movers. He did not have any and his story did not match up with the mover guys story as far as whether or not they were on/over the 59th St. Bridge. Someone was lying. When they arrived, I only had 1.5hr window. Needless to say, we went over and again I had to move the CT movers.

One of the drivers parked in front of a fire hydrant - despite my father telling him he would get a ticket. Well he did. A $100+ ticket. He then basically quit on moving things. Hallway was packed but nothing was moving down elevator and into truck. I called the owner John and told him they were not bringing my things down elevator and into the truck. He kept saying "what do you want me to do?" - with no solutions.

Then one of the movers said "okay your 2hrs is up with John, want to pay us under the table - each $40 per hour?" Which would obv be $80 and Hire a Helper rate was $60. I called John and told him one of the movers tried to cut him out. Miraculously, John now cared. He sent 2 other guys over to help me.

Meanwhile I have a torn disc in my back and I loaded the elevator 7 times by myself. The movers were complaining to John that they had "to climb walls and were not aware of this" - which was an exaggeration because they had to lift my bedroom furniture over a short wall on my terrace to bring down the central stairs. Which is much easier than getting stuck in tiny stairwell in my apt!

The one mover who got the ticket spent more time on the phone complaining to whomever - then he did moving. I had to carry pieces of my bed over the terrace wall by myself!

Then John gave me grief and called and said "the movers are saying you keep pulling stuff out and asking them to pack the truck with it. This will cost you extra!". Total lie. I had a corner in my living room where if there was still room in the truck - we would pack those boxes in. I was NOT pulling things out from somewhere.

In the end, the other 2 movers finally showed up - but I had already brought down so much on my own. John fired the mover who tried to cut him out. Yet, as I drove away I saw that mover chatting with the others at the end of my street. John did credit me for 2 hours - but it was nothing, comparatively. I had to make 4 more runs with my car - including 1 at 3:10am and 1 at 6:30am because the new tenants were moving in at 9am! This was the worse move ever. Zero exaggeration.

The only good bit was one of the movers was good at packing a truck - but he had a chip on his shoulder and didn't want me to tell him how to wrap my expensive bedroom furniture. Oddly, he warmed up to me at the end when it came to tipping. And to think at the start of the move, I brought out homemade chocolate chip cookies for everyone.

Mover's response:
some people no matter what you do are never happy yes we where late do to traffic on the bridge but i thought i resolved the situation by sending her extra men for this complicated move that the customer did not prepare us for. I wish you good luck in your future endeavors and please make a newyears resolution to be a bit more honest in the future thank you
